Keep emergency stop switch lanyard free from
obstructions that could interfere with its opera-
tion. Do not modify or remove emergency stop
switch or bypass its safety features. The proper
use of the emergency stop switch will prevent
a runaway boat situation which can cause se-
vere personal injury or death.
Fire!
In case of fire do not open the engine compart-
ment. Shut down engine(s), generator(s), and
blower(s). Discharge entire contents of fixed
fire suppression system, if equipped. If using
portable CO2 fire extinguisher continuously dis-
charge entire contents. On European models,
discharge contents through fire port.
NOTICE
Using a portable fire extinguisher with an ac-
cess/fire port in the engine compartment is pre-
ferred to opening the engine compartment to
fight the fire. However, using a portable extin-
guisher in this way provides less protection
against fire than a fixed suppression system.
NOTICE
Do not test fire extinguishers by squirting small
amounts of the extinguishing compound. The
fire extinguisher might not work when you re-
ally need it.
The Funship™ models are considered to be Class 1
powerboats (16 to less than 26 feet). Since they have

carry one (1) B-1 type hand portable fire extinguisher.
