Rear brake shoes
The rear brake is provided with a wear
indicator, which allows you to check the
brake shoe wear without having to
disassemble the brake. To check the
brake shoe wear, check the position of
the wear indicator while applying the
brake. If a brake shoe has worn to the
point that the wear indicator reaches
the wear limit line, have a Yamaha dea-
ler replace the brake shoes as a set.

Checking the brake fluid level
Insufficient brake fluid may allow air to
enter the brake system, possibly causing
it to become ineffective.
Before riding, check that the brake fluid
is above the minimum level mark and
replenish if necessary. A low brake fluid
level may indicate worn brake pads and/
or brake system leakage. If the brake
level is low, be sure to check the brake
pads for wear and the brake system for
leakage.Observe these precautions:
•When checking the fluid level,
make sure that the top of the
master cylinder is level by turning
the handlebars.
•Use only the recommended quality
brake fluid, otherwise the rubber
seals may deteriorate, causing
leakage and poor braking perfor-
mance.
Recommended brake fluid:
DOT 4
NOTE :
If DOT 4 is not available, DOT 3 can be
used.
•Refill with the same type of brake
fluid. Mixing fluids may result in a
harmful chemical reaction and lead
to poor braking performance.
•Be careful that water does not en-
ter the master cylinder when
refilling. Water will significantly
lower the boiling point of the fluid
and may result in vapor lock.

Troubleshooting
Although Yamaha scooters receive a
thorough inspection before shipment
from the factory, trouble may occur
during operation. Any problem in the
fuel, compression, or ignition systems,
for example, can cause poor starting
and loss of power.
The following troubleshooting chart
represents a quick and easy procedure
for checking these vital systems
yourself. However, should your scoo-
ter require any repair, take it to a
Yamaha dealer, whose skilled
technicians have the necessary tools,
experience, and know-how to service
the scooter properly.
Use only genuine Yamaha replacement
parts. Imitation parts may look like
Yamaha parts, but they are often
inferior, have a shorter service life and
can lead to expensive repair bills.
