The Generation is equipped with navigation lights.
The side lights are installed at the center of the bow step. A green light is illuminated towards the port (left) side,
and a red light is illuminated towards the starboard (right) side.
A mast with a white light may be mounted to the transom (see FEATURE & DECK PLANS) to provide 360
o

All navigation lights are to be controlled by the switch panel on the center console.
CAUTION
Do not use the boat between sunset and sunrise, or in low-light conditions, without turning on navigation
lights. The lights are important means for boaters to provide current locations and to indicate directions of
movement at night.
STEERING SYSTEM
The Generation is equipped with a mechanical steering system.
To assure safety and trouble-free use, the steering system requires periodic maintenance. Contact a dealer for
maintenance services.
CAUTION
Improperly maintained controls could cause accidents. Make sure regular maintainance is carried out.
The steering system on Generation is not self-centering. To assure complete control of the boat, always
grip the steering wheel firmly.
FUEL SYSTEM
The Generation has an internal fuel system. The fuel tank is located below the deck near the console.
WARNING
Danger of fire, explosion and open flame.
Be extremly careful when operating the fuel system, e.g. refueling, installing, uninstralling or cleaning.
Fuel fumes may ignite from a static spark and cause serious injury and damage. Do not smoke, allow open
flame, or spark within 15 meters of fuelling location.
REFUELING:
- Before refueling, stop the engine.
- The fuel tank cap is located on the starboard (right) side, right behind the driver’s seat.
- Do not overfill fuel tank. Allow at least 6% allowance in space for the fuel to expand.
- Refuel in permitted refueling areas, such as fuel docks in the harbour or gas stations. These locations include
precautions that lower the probability of static explosion.
- Read all warnings on the fuel distributor and around. Act accordingly.
- Do not board the boat while refueling. Boarding and disembarking may creat a static charge that may ignite
the fumes over the intake pipe.
- When filling for the first time, and during successive refueling, check the entire fuel system of the boat for
leaks or damage. If any leaking or damaged parts is found, repair immediately, and ventilate the area to
remove explosive fumes.
- Dry spilled fuel thoroughly. Dispose of rags on-shore, according to regulations.
- Before starting the engine or any equipment, check for fuel fumes.
