ECA11570
CAUTION
Do not operate the motorcycle until
you know that the 2-stroke engine
oil level is sufficient.
NOTE:
Even if the 2-stroke engine oil level is
sufficient, the warning light may flic-
ker when riding on a slope or during
sudden acceleration or deceleration,
but this is not a malfunction.
EAU11430
Coolant temperature warning light
“y”
This warning light comes on when the
engine overheats. When this occurs,
stop the engine immediately and
allow the engine to cool.
ECA10020
CAUTION
Do not operate the engine if it is
overheated.

The speedometer unit is equipped
with a speedometer, an odometer and

meter shows the distance traveled
since it was last set to zero.
Pushing the reset button switches the
display between the odometer mode
“TOTAL” and the tripmeter mode
“TRIP”. To reset the tripmeter, enter
the “TRIP” mode, and then hold down

Final transmission oil
1. Oil filler bolt
The final transmission case must be
checked for oil leakage before each
ride. If any leakage is found, have a
Yamaha dealer check and repair the
scooter. In addition, the final trans-
mission oil must be changed as
follows at the intervals specified in the
periodic maintenance and lubrication
chart.
1. Start the engine, warm it up by
riding the scooter for several
minutes, and then stop the engi-
ne.
1. Drain plug
2. Place the scooter on the centers-
tand.
3. Place an oil pan under the final
transmission case to collect the
used oil.
4. Remove the oil filler cap and
drain bolt to drain the oil from the
final transmission case.
5. Install the final transmission oil
drain bolt, and then tighten it to
the specified torque.
6. Add the specified amount of the
recommended final transmissionoil, and then install and tighten
the oil filler cap.
EWA11310

WARNING
Make sure that no foreign
material enters the final trans-
mission case.
Make sure that no oil gets on
the tire or wheel.
7. Check the final transmission case
for oil leakage. If oil is leaking,
check for the cause.
EAUS1200
Coolant (only for liquid-
cooled models)
The coolant level should be checked
before each ride. In addition, the coo-
lant must be changed at the intervals
specified in the periodic maintenance
and lubrication chart.
Recommended final transmission
oil:
SAE30 motor oil.
Oil quantity:
0,11 L (0,0003 Imp.qt)
Tightening torque:
Final transmission oil drain bolt:
18 Nm (1,8 m•kgf, 13,2 ft•lbf)

To check the coolant level
1. Place the vehicle on a level surfa-
ce and hold it in an upright posi-
tion.
NOTE:
The coolant level must be chec-
ked on a cold engine since the
level varies with engine tempera-
ture.
Make sure that the vehicle is
positioned straight up when
checking the coolant level. A
slight tilt to the side can result in
a false reading.
1. Coolant level gauge window
2. Check the coolant level through
the check window.
NOTE:
The coolant should be between the
minimum and maximum level marks.
1. Coolant reservoir
3. If the coolant is at or below the
minimum level mark, remove the
front cowling by removing the
screws.
4. Open the reservoir cap, and then
add coolant to the maximum
level mark.
ECA10470
CAUTION
If coolant is not available, use
distilled water or soft tap water
instead. Do not use hard water
or salt water since it is harmful
to the engine.
If water has been used instead
of coolant, replace it with coo-
lant as soon as possible, other-
wise the engine may not be
sufficiently cooled and the coo-
ling system will not be protec-
ted against frost and corrosion.
If water has been added to the
coolant, have a Yamaha dealer
check the antifreeze content of
the coolant as soon as possi-
ble, otherwise the effective-
ness of the coolant will be
reduced.
5. Close the reservoir cap, and then
install the front cowling by insta-
lling the screws.Coolant reservoir capacity:
0,380 L (0,00103 Imp.qt)
