FEATURES AND CONTROLS

RPM Limiter

Your Polaris watercraft is equipped with a device that
will limit engine revolutions per minute (RPM) if the
engine overheats. This feature is designed to help
prevent engine damage caused by engine overheating.

If the high temperature indicator and warning displays,
stop the engine immediately.

Clean the jet pump and impeller as outlined on page
24. If the cause of overheating is identified and
corrected, normal operation can be resumed by
releasing and reapplying the throttle.

If the engine continues to overheat after cleaning the
jet pump and impeller, take the watercraft to an
authorized Polaris dealer for service.

A clogged intake and/or impeller can cause engine
overheating and/or damage to the jet pump and
impeller parts. Always keep the intake and/or
impeller free of debris and weeds.
