rage rating than recommended to
avoid causing extensive damage to
the electrical system and possibly a
fire.
3. Turn the key to “ON” and turn on
the electrical circuits to check if the
devices operate.
4. If the fuse immediately blows
again, have a Yamaha dealer check
the electrical system.

sely affected. Thoroughly clean off
any dirt and fingerprints on the
headlight bulb using a cloth mois-
tened with alcohol or thinner.
4. Connect the headlight lead con-
nectors, and then install the bulb
cover.
