QQQQQ SAFETY INFORMATIONEAU10261

SCOOTERS ARE SINGLE TRACK VE-HICLES. THEIR SAFE USE AND OP-ERATION ARE DEPENDENT UPONTHE USE OF PROPER RIDING TECH-NIQUES AS WELL AS THE EXPER-TISE OF THE OPERATOR. EVERYOPERATOR SHOULD KNOW THE FOL-LOWING REQUIREMENTS BEFORERIDING THIS SCOOTER.HE OR SHE SHOULD:8 OBTAIN THOROUGH INSTRUC-

TIONS FROM A COMPETENTSOURCE ON ALL ASPECTS OFSCOOTER OPERATION.

8 OBSERVE THE WARNINGS ANDMAINTENANCE REQUIRE-MENTS IN THE OWNER’SMANUAL.

8 OBTAIN QUALIFIED TRAINING INSAFE AND PROPER RIDINGTECHNIQUES.

8 OBTAIN PROFESSIONAL TECH-NICAL SERVICE AS INDICATEDBY THE OWNER’S MANUAL AND/OR WHEN MADE NECESSARYBY MECHANICAL CONDITIONS.

Safe riding8 Always make pre-operation checks.

Careful checks may help preventan accident.

8 This scooter is designed to carrythe operator and passenger.

8 The failure of motorists to detectand recognize scooters in traffic isthe predominating cause of auto-mobile/scooter accidents. Manyaccidents have been caused by anautomobile driver who did not seethe scooter. Making yourself con-spicuous appears to be very effec-tive in reducing the chance of thistype of accident.

Therefore:9 Wear a brightly colored jacket.9 Use extra caution when ap-

proaching and passing throughintersections, since intersec-tions are the most likely placesfor scooter accidents to occur.

9 Ride where other motorists cansee you. Avoid riding in anothermotorist’s blind spot.

8 Many accidents involve inexperi-enced operators. In fact, many op-erators who have been involved inaccidents do not even have a cur-rent driver’s license.9 Make sure that you are quali-

fied and that you only lend yourscooter to other qualifiedoperators.

9 Know your skills and limits.Staying within your limits mayhelp you to avoid an accident.

9 We recommend that youpractice riding your scooterwhere there is no traffic untilyou have become thoroughlyfamiliar with the scooter and allof its controls.

8 Many accidents have been causedby error of the scooter operator. Atypical error made by the operatoris veering wide on a turn due toEXCESSIVE SPEED orundercornering (insufficient leanangle for the speed).9 Always obey the speed limit

and never travel faster thanwarranted by road and trafficconditions.

QQQQQ SAFETY INFORMATIONWhen loading within this weight limit,keep the following in mind:8 Cargo and accessory weight should

be kept as low and close to thescooter as possible. Make sure todistribute the weight as evenly aspossible on both sides of thescooter to minimize imbalance orinstability.

8 Shifting weights can create a sud-den imbalance. Make sure that ac-cessories and cargo are securelyattached to the scooter before riding.Check accessory mounts andcargo restraints frequently.

8 Never attach any large or heavyitems to the handlebar, front fork,or front fender. Such items can cre-ate unstable handling or a slowsteering response.

AccessoriesGenuine Yamaha accessories havebeen specifically designed for use onthis scooter. Since Yamaha cannot testall other accessories that may be avail-able, you must personally be responsiblefor the proper selection, installation anduse of non-Yamaha accessories. Use

extreme caution when selecting and in-stalling any accessories.Keep the following guidelines in mind,as well as those provided under “Load-ing” when mounting accessories.8 Never install accessories or carry

cargo that would impair the perfor-mance of your scooter. Carefullyinspect the accessory before us-ing it to make sure that it does notin any way reduce ground clear-ance or cornering clearance, limitsuspension travel, steering travelor control operation, or obscurelights or reflectors.9 Accessories fitted to the

handlebar or the front fork areacan create instability due toimproper weight distribution oraerodynamic changes. Ifaccessories are added to thehandlebar or front fork area,they must be as lightweight aspossible and should be kept toa minimum.

9 Bulky or large accessories mayseriously affect the stability ofthe scooter due to aerodynamiceffects. Wind may attempt to

lift the scooter, or the scootermay become unstable in crosswinds. These accessories mayalso cause instability whenpassing or being passed bylarge vehicles.

9 Certain accessories candisplace the operator from hisor her normal riding position.This improper position limitsthe freedom of movement ofthe operator and may limitcontrol ability, therefore, suchaccessories are not recom-mended.

8 Use caution when adding electricalaccessories. If electrical accesso-ries exceed the capacity of thescooter’s electrical system an elec-tric failure could result, which couldcause a dangerous loss of lights orengine power.

Gasoline and exhaust gas8 GASOLINE IS HIGHLY FLAM-

MABLE:9 Always turn the engine off

Further safe-riding points8 Make sure to signal clearly when

making turns.8 Braking can be extremely difficult

on a wet road. Avoid hard braking,because the scooter could slide.Apply the brakes slowly when stop-ping on a wet surface.

8 Slow down as you approach a cor-ner or turn. Once you have com-pleted a turn, accelerate slowly.

8 Be careful when passing parkedcars. A driver might not see you andopen a door in your path.

8 Railroad crossings, streetcar rails,iron plates on road constructionsites, and manhole covers becomeextremely slippery when wet. Slowdown and cross them with caution.Keep the scooter upright, otherwiseit could slide out from under you.

cCUse only unleaded gasoline. The useof leaded gasoline will cause severedamage to internal engine parts, suchas the valves and piston rings, as wellas to the exhaust system.

Your Yamaha engine has been designedto use regular unleaded gasoline with apump octane number [(R+M)/2] of 86 orhigher, or a research octane number of91 or higher. If knocking (or pinging) oc-curs, use a gasoline of a different brandor premium unleaded fuel. Use of un-leaded fuel will extend spark plug lifeand reduce maintenance costs.

PRE-OPERATION CHECKSEAU15580


The condition of a vehicle is the owner’s responsibility. Vital components can start to deteriorate quickly and unexpectedly,even if the vehicle remains unused (for example, as a result of exposure to the elements). Any damage, fluid leakage or lossof tire air pressure could have serious consequences. Therefore, it is very important, in addition to a thorough visual inspec-tion, to check the following points before each ride.

NOTE:Pre-operation checks should be made each time the vehicle is used. Such an inspection can be accomplished in a very shorttime; and the added safety it assures is more than worth the time involved.

EWA11150

wIf any item in the Pre-operation check list is not working properly, have it inspected and repaired before operatingthe vehicle.

PERIODIC MAINTENANCE AND MINOR REPAIREAUT1180

Engine oil and oil strainerThe engine oil level should be checkedbefore each ride. In addition, the oil mustbe changed and the oil strainer cleanedat the intervals specified in the periodicmaintenance and lubrication chart.

To check the engine oil level1. Place the vehicle on the center

stand.

NOTEMake sure that the vehicle is positionedstraight up when checking the oil level.A slight tilt to the side can result in afalse reading.

2. Start the engine, warm it up for sev-eral minutes, and then turn it off.

3. Wait a few minutes until the oilsettles, and then check the oil levelthrough the check window locatedat the bottom-left side of the crank-case.

NOTE:The engine oil should be between theminimum and maximum level marks.

in the owner’s tool kit.

To check the spark plug1. Check that the porcelain insulator

around the center electrode of thespark plug is a medium-to-light tan(the ideal color when the vehicle isridden normally).

NOTE:If the spark plug shows a distinctly dif-ferent color, the engine could be operat-ing improperly. Do not attempt to diag-nose such problems yourself. Instead,have a Yamaha dealer check the vehicle.

2. Check the spark plug for electrodeerosion and excessive carbon orother deposits, and replace it if nec-essary.

Specified spark plug:CR7E (NGK)

To install the spark plug1. Measure the spark plug gap with a

wire thickness gauge and, if nec-essary, adjust the gap to specifi-cation.

Spark plug gap:0.7~0.8 mm (0.028~0.031 in)

2. Clean the surface of the spark pluggasket and its mating surface, andthen wipe off any grime from thespark plug threads.

3. Install the spark plug with the sparkplug wrench, and then tighten it tothe specified torque.

Tightening torque:Spark plug:

13 Nm (1.3 m•kgf, 9.4 ft•lbf)

NOTE:If a torque wrench is not available wheninstalling a spark plug, a good estimateof the correct torque is 1/4<->1/2 turnpast finger tight. However, the spark plugshould be tightened to the specifiedtorque as soon as possible.

4. Install the spark plug cap.5. Install the panel.

1. Minimum level mark

Insufficient brake fluid may allow air toenter the brake system, possibly caus-ing it to become ineffective.

Before riding, check that the brake fluidis above the minimum level mark andreplenish if necessary. A low brake fluidlevel may indicate worn brake pads and/or brake system leakage. If the brakefluid level is low, be sure to check thebrake pads for wear and the brake sys-tem for leakage.

Observe these precautions:8 When checking the fluid level, make

sure that the top of the master cyl-inder is level by turning the handle-bars.

8 Use only the recommended qualitybrake fluid, otherwise the rubberseals may deteriorate, causingleakage and poor braking perfor-mance.

Recommended brake fluid:DOT 4

8 Refill with the same type of brakefluid. Mixing fluids may result in aharmful chemical reaction and leadto poor braking performance.

8 Be careful that water does not en-ter the master cylinder when refill-ing. Water will significantly lower theboiling point of the fluid and mayresult in vapor lock.

8 Brake fluid may deteriorate paintedsurfaces or plastic parts. Alwaysclean up spilled fluid immediately.

8 As the brake pads wear, it is nor-mal for the brake fluid level togradually go down. However, if the

brake fluid level goes down sud-denly, have a Yamaha dealer checkthe cause.

TroubleshootingAlthough Yamaha scooters receive athorough inspection before shipmentfrom the factory, trouble may occur dur-ing operation. Any problem in the fuel,compression, or ignition systems, forexample, can cause poor starting andloss of power.The following troubleshooting chart rep-resents a quick and easy procedure forchecking these vital systems yourself.However, should your scooter require anyrepair, take it to a Yamaha dealer, whoseskilled technicians have the necessarytools, experience, and know-how to ser-vice the scooter properly.Use only genuine Yamaha replacementparts. Imitation parts may look likeYamaha parts, but they are often infe-rior, have a shorter service life and canlead to expensive repair bills.

EAU25991

SCOOTER CARE AND STORAGEEAU26091

CareWhile the open design of a scooter re-veals the attractiveness of the technol-ogy, it also makes it more vulnerable.Rust and corrosion can develop even ifhigh-quality components are used. Arusty exhaust pipe may go unnoticedon a car, however, it detracts from theoverall appearance of a scooter. Fre-quent and proper care does not onlycomply with the terms of the warranty,but it will also keep your scooter look-ing good, extend its life and optimize itsperformance.

Before cleaning1. Cover the muffler outlet with a plas-

tic bag after the engine has cooleddown.

2. Make sure that all caps and cov-ers as well as all electrical couplersand connectors, including thespark plug cap, are tightly installed.

3. Remove extremely stubborn dirt,like oil burnt onto the crankcase,with a degreasing agent and abrush, but never apply such prod-ucts onto seals, gaskets and wheel

axles. Always rinse the dirt anddegreaser off with water.

CleaningECA10781

cC●●●●● Avoid using strong acidic wheel

cleaners, especially on spokedwheels. If such products areused on hard-to-remove dirt, donot leave the cleaner on the af-fected area any longer than in-structed. Also, thoroughly rinsethe area off with water, immedi-ately dry it, and then apply a cor-rosion protection spray.

●●●●● Improper cleaning can damageplastic parts such as cowlings,panels, windshields, headlightlenses, meter lenses, etc. Useonly a soft, clean cloth or spongewith mild detergent and water toclean plastic.

●●●●● Do not use any harsh chemicalproducts on plastic parts. Besure to avoid using cloths orsponges which have been incontact with strong or abrasivecleaning products, solvent or

thinner, fuel (gasoline), rust re-movers or inhibitors, brake fluid,antifreeze or electrolyte.

●●●●● Do not use high-pressure wash-ers or steam-jet cleaners sincethey cause water seepage anddeterioration in the followingareas: seals (of wheel andswingarm bearings, fork andbrakes), electric components(couplers, connectors, instru-ments, switches and lights),breather hoses and vents.

●●●●● For scooters equipped with awindshield: Do not use strongcleaners or hard sponges asthey will cause dulling orscratching. Some cleaning com-pounds for plastic may leavescratches on the windshield.Test the product on a small hid-den part of the windshield tomake sure that it does not leaveany marks. If the windshield isscratched, use a quality plasticpolishing compound after wash-ing.

SCOOTER CARE AND STORAGEAfter normal useRemove dirt with warm water, a milddetergent, and a soft, clean sponge, andthen rinse thoroughly with clean water.Use a toothbrush or bottlebrush forhard-to-reach areas. Stubborn dirt andinsects will come off more easily if thearea is covered with a wet cloth for afew minutes before cleaning.

After riding in the rain, near the sea oron salt-sprayed roadsSince sea salt or salt sprayed on theroads during winter are extremely cor-rosive in combination with water, carryout the following steps after each ridein the rain, near the sea or on salt-sprayed roads.

NOTE:Salt sprayed on roads in the winter mayremain well into spring.

1. Clean the scooter with cold waterand a mild detergent after the en-gine has cooled down.

ECA10790

cCDo not use warm water since it in-creases the corrosive action of thesalt.

2. Apply a corrosion protection sprayon all metal, including chrome- andnickel-plated, surfaces to preventcorrosion.

After cleaning1. Dry the scooter with a chamois or

an absorbing cloth.2. Use a chrome polish to shine

chrome, aluminum and stainless-steel parts, including the exhaustsystem. (Even the thermally in-duced discoloring of stainless-steelexhaust systems can be removedthrough polishing.)

3. To prevent corrosion, it is recom-mended to apply a corrosion pro-tection spray on all metal, includ-ing chrome- and nickel-plated, sur-faces.

4. Use spray oil as a universal cleanerto remove any remaining dirt.

5. Touch up minor paint damagecaused by stones, etc.

6. Wax all painted surfaces.7. Let the scooter dry completely be-

fore storing or covering it.EWA10940

w●●●●● Make sure that there is no oil or

wax on the brakes or tires. If nec-essary, clean the brake discsand brake linings with a regularbrake disc cleaner or acetone,and wash the tires with warmwater and a mild detergent.

●●●●● Before operating the scootertest its braking performance andcornering behavior.

ECA10800

cC●●●●● Apply spray oil and wax spar-

ingly and make sure to wipe offany excess.

●●●●● Never apply oil or wax to anyrubber and plastic parts, buttreat them with a suitable careproduct.

ECA10820

cC●●●●● Storing the scooter in a poorly

ventilated room or covering itwith a tarp, while it is still wet,will allow water and humidity toseep in and cause rust.

●●●●● To prevent corrosion, avoiddamp cellars, stables (becauseof the presence of ammonia) andareas where strong chemicalsare stored.

Long-termBefore storing your scooter for severalmonths:

1. Follow all the instructions in the“Care” section of this chapter.

2. Drain the carburetor float chamberby loosening the drain bolt; this willprevent fuel deposits from buildingup. Pour the drained fuel into thefuel tank.

Storage<IXE>

3. Fill up the fuel tank and add fuelstabilizer (if available) to prevent thefuel tank from rusting and the fuelfrom deteriorating.

4. Perform the following steps to pro-tect the cylinder, piston rings, etc.from corrosion.a. Remove the spark plug cap and

spark plug.b. Pour a teaspoonful of engine oil

into the spark plug bore.c. Install the spark plug cap onto

the spark plug, and then placethe spark plug on the cylinderhead so that the electrodes aregrounded. (This will limit spark-ing during the next step.)

d. Turn the engine over severaltimes with the starter. (This willcoat the cylinder wall with oil.)

e. Remove the spark plug cap fromthe spark plug, and then installthe spark plug and the spark plugcap.

Keep your Yamaha protected even after your warranty expires with genuine Yamaha Extended Service (Y.E.S.).

Y.E.S. is designed and administered by Yamaha Motor Corporation to provide maximum owner satisfaction. You get uninterrupted factory-backed coverage for extra peace of mind.

Y.E.S. is flexible. You choose the plan that’s right foryou: 12 months, 24 months, 36 months or, on certain models, even 48 months beyond your warranty period.

Y.E.S. is designed and administered by the same Yamaha people who handle your warranty – and itshows in the comprehensive coverage benefits. There are no mileage limitations. Coverage isn’t limited to “moving parts” or the “drive train” like many other plans. And Y.E.S. covers manufacturing defects just like the warranty. See the sample contract at your Yamahadealer to see how comforting uninterrupted factory-backed protection can be.

You don’t have to pay anything for covered repairs. There’s no deductible to pay, and repairs aren’t“pro-rated.” You don’t have any “out-of-pocket” expenses for covered repairs.

In addition, Travel and Recreation Interruption Protection (TRIP) is included at no extra cost. TRIP gives you up to $150 reimbursement per occurrence for any reasonable expenses you incur because your Yamaha needs covered service: replacement vehicle rental, emergency towing, phone calls, even food and lodging when you are away from home. This superb coverage goes into effect when you purchase Y.E.S., so it applies to any warranty repairs as well as covered repairs during your entire Y.E.S. plan period.

Y.E.S. coverage is honored at any authorized Yamaha dealer nationwide.

Y.E.S. coverage is transferable to a new owner if yousell or trade-in. That can make your Yamaha much more valuable!

This excellent Y.E.S. plan coverage is only available to Yamaha owners like you, and only while your Yamaha is still within the Yamaha Limited Warranty period. So visit your authorized Yamaha dealer to get all the facts. He can show you how easy it is to protect your investment with Yamaha Extended Service.
