Q SAFETY INFORMATION
tric failure could result, which could
cause a dangerous loss of lights or
engine power.
Gasoline and exhaust gas
8GASOLINE IS HIGHLY FLAM-
MABLE:
9Always turn the engine off
when refueling.
9Take care not to spill any
gasoline on the engine or
exhaust system when refueling.
9Never refuel while smoking or
in the vicinity of an open flame.
8Never start the engine or let it run
for any length of time in a closed
area. The exhaust fumes are poi-
sonous and may cause loss of con-
sciousness and death within a
short time. Always operate your
scooter in an area that has adequate
ventilation.
8Always turn the engine off before
leaving the scooter unattended and
remove the key from the main
switch. When parking the scooter,
note the following:
9The engine and exhaustsystem may be hot, therefore,
park the scooter in a place
where pedestrians or children
are not likely to touch these hot
areas.
9Do not park the scooter on a
slope or soft ground, otherwise
it may fall over.
9Do not park the scooter near a
flammable source (e.g., a
kerosene heater, or near an
open flame), otherwise it could
catch fire.
8If you should swallow any gasoline,
inhale a lot of gasoline vapor, or
allow gasoline to get into your eyes,
see your doctor immediately. If any
gasoline spills on your skin or cloth-
ing, immediately wash the affected
area with soap and water and
change your clothes.

OPERATION AND IMPORTANT RIDING POINTS
EAU16830
Engine break-inThere is never a more important period
in the life of your engine than the period
between 0 and 1000 km (600 mi). For
this reason, you should read the follow-
ing material carefully.
Since the engine is brand new, do not
put an excessive load on it for the first
1000 km (600 mi). The various parts in
the engine wear and polish themselves
to the correct operating clearances. Dur-
ing this period, prolonged full-throttle
operation or any condition that might
result in engine overheating must be
avoided.
EAU16820
Tips for reducing fuel con-
sumptionFuel consumption depends largely on
your riding style. Consider the following
tips to reduce fuel consumption:
8Avoid high engine speeds during
acceleration.
8Avoid high engine speeds with no
load on the engine.
8Turn 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).
EAU16950
0~150 km (0~90 mi)
Avoid prolonged operation above 1/3
throttle.
After every hour of operation, stop the
engine, and then let it cool for five to
ten minutes.
Vary the engine speed from time to time.
Do not operate the engine at one set
throttle position.150~500 km (90~300 mi)
Avoid prolonged operation above 1/2
throttle.
Rev the engine freely through the gears,
but do not use full throttle at any time.
500~1000 km (300~600 mi)
Avoid prolonged operation above 3/4
throttle.
ECA10350
cCAfter 1000 km (600 mi) of operation,
the engine oil must be changed and
the oil strainer cleaned.1000 km (600 mi) and beyond
Avoid prolonged full-throttle operation.
Vary the speed occasionally.

cCIf any engine trouble should occur
during the engine break-in period,
immediately have a Yamaha dealer
check the vehicle.

8Be sure no foreign material en-
ters the crankcase.
8. Start the engine, and then let it idle
for several minutes while checking
it for oil leakage. If oil is leaking,
immediately turn the engine off and
check for the cause.
9. Turn the engine off, and then check
the oil level and correct it if neces-
sary.
10. Reset the oil change indicator. (See
page 3-2 for reset procedures.)NOTE:
If the engine oil is changed before the
oil change indicator changes to red (i.e.
before the periodic oil change interval
has been reached), the indicator must
be reset after the oil change for the next
periodic oil change to be indicated at the
correct time.
EAU20060
Final transmission oilThe 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 transmission 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 min-
utes, and then stop the engine.
2. Place the scooter on the
centerstand.
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.
