Sidestand
The sidestand is located on the left side
of the frame. Raise the sidestand or
lower it with your foot while holding the
vehicle upright.
NOTE:

The built-in sidestand switch is part of
the ignition circuit cut-off system, which
cuts the ignition in certain situations.
(See further down for an explanation of
the ignition circuit cut-off system.)
WARNING

EWA10240
The vehicle must not be ridden with
the sidestand down, or if the side-
stand cannot be properly moved up
(or does not stay up), otherwise the
sidestand could contact the ground
and distract the operator, resulting
in a possible loss of control. Yama-
ha’s ignition circuit cut-off system
has been designed to assist the op-
erator in fulfilling the responsibility
of raising the sidestand before start-
ing off. Therefore, check this systemregularly as described below and
have a Yamaha dealer repair it if it
does not function properly.
EAU15371
Ignition circuit cut-off system
The ignition circuit cut-off system (com-
prising the sidestand switch and brake
light switches) has the following func-
tions.

It prevents starting when the side-
stand is up, but neither brake is ap-
plied.

It prevents starting when either
brake is applied, but the sidestand
is still down.

It cuts the running engine when the
sidestand is moved down.
Periodically check the operation of the
ignition circuit cut-off system according
to the following procedure.
WARNING

EWA10250
If a malfunction is noted, have a
Yamaha dealer check the system be-
fore riding.

WARNING

EWA10300

Avoid braking hard or suddenly
(especially when leaning over to
one side), otherwise the scooter
may skid or overturn.

Railroad crossings, streetcar
rails, iron plates on road con-
struction sites, and manhole
covers become extremely slip-
pery when wet. Therefore, slow
down when approaching such
areas and cross them with cau-
tion.

Keep in mind that braking on a
wet road is much more difficult.

Ride slowly down a hill, as brak-ing downhill can be very diffi-
cult.
EAU16820
Tips for reducing fuel
consumption
Fuel consumption depends largely on
your riding style. Consider the following
tips to reduce fuel consumption:

Avoid high engine speeds during
acceleration.

Avoid high engine speeds with no
load on the engine.

Turn the engine off instead of let-
ting it idle for an extended length of
time (e.g., in traffic jams, at traffic
lights or at railroad crossings).

WARNING

EWA11310

Make sure that no foreign mate-
rial enters the final transmission
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.
EAU20070
Coolant
The coolant level should be checked
before each ride. In addition, the cool-
ant must be changed at the intervals
specified in the periodic maintenance
and lubrication chart.
EAU34191
To check the coolant level
1. Place the vehicle on a level sur-
face and hold it in an upright posi-
tion.
NOTE:


The coolant level must be checked
on a cold engine since the level
varies with engine temperature.

Make sure that the vehicle is posi-
tioned straight up when checking
the coolant level. A slight tilt to the
side can result in a false reading.
2. Pull up the right floorboard mat as
shown.3. Remove the coolant reservoir cov-
er by removing the screw.
4. Check the coolant level in the cool-
ant reservoir. Recommended final transmis-
sion oil:
See page 8-1.
