Safety is an obligation of the owner.
Periodic inspection, adjustment and
lubrication will keep your vehicle in
the safest and most efficient condi-
tion possible. The most important
points of inspection, adjustment, and
lubrication are explained on the follo-
wing pages.
The intervals given in the periodic
maintenance and lubrication chart
should be simply considered as a
general guide under normal riding
conditions. However, DEPENDING
ON THE WEATHER, TERRAIN, GEO-
GRAPHICAL LOCATION, AND INDIVI-
DUAL USE, THE MAINTENANCE
INTERVALS MAY NEED TO BE
SHORTENED.

WARNING
This scooter is designed for use on
paved roads only. If this scooter is
operated in abnormally dusty,
muddy or wet conditions, the air fil-
ter element should be cleaned or
replaced more frequently, otherwi-
se rapid engine wear may result.
Consult a Yamaha dealer for proper
maintenance intervals.

The service information included in
this manual and the tools provided in
the owner’s tool kit are intended toassist you in the performance of pre-
ventive maintenance and minor
repairs. However, additional tools

Checking the spark plug
1. Spark plug cap
The spark plug is an important engine
component, which should be chec-
ked periodically, preferably by a
Yamaha dealer. Since heat and depo-
sits will cause any spark plug to
slowly erode, it should be removed
and checked in accordance with the
periodic maintenance and lubrication
chart. In addition, the condition of the
spark plug can reveal the condition of
the engine.
The porcelain insulator around the
center electrode of the spark plug
should be a medium-to-light tan (the
ideal color when the vehicle is riddennormally). If the spark plug shows a
distinctly different color, the engine
could be defective. Do not attempt to
diagnose such problems yourself.
Instead, have a Yamaha dealer check
the vehicle.
If the spark plug shows signs of elec-
trode erosion and excessive carbon
or other deposits, it should be repla-
ced.
1. Spark plug wrench
Before installing a spark plug, the
spark plug gap should be measured
with a wire thickness gauge and, if
necessary, adjusted to specification.Clean the surface of the spark plug
gasket and its mating surface, and
then wipe off any grime from the
spark plug threads.
1. Spark plug gap
NOTE:
If a torque wrench is not available
when installing a spark plug, a good
estimate of the correct torque is
1/4~1/2 turn past finger tight. Howe-
ver, the spark plug should be tighte-
ned to the specified torque as soon
as possible.
Tightening torque:
Spark plug:
20 Nm 2,0 m•kgf, 14,46ft•lb)
Spark plug gap:
0,7~0,8 mm (0,0275in-0,0315in)
Specified spark plug:

1. O-ring
2. Compression spring
3. Strainer
4. Clean the oil strainer with solvent,
and then check it for damage and
replace it if necessary.
5. Check the O-ring for damage and
replace it if necessary.
6. Install the oil strainer, spring, O-
ring and engine drain bolt, and
then tighten the drain bolt to the
specified torque.
NOTE:
Make sure that the O-ring is properly
seated.
7. Add the specified amount of the
recommended engine oil, and
then install and tighten the oil
filler cap.
ECA11670
CAUTION
Do not use oils with a diesel
specification of “CD” or oils of
a higher quality than specified.
In addition, do not use oils
labeled “ENERGY CONSER-
VING II” or higher.
Be sure no foreign material
enters 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 cau-
se.
9. Reset the oil change indicator
light according to the following
procedure.To reset the oil change indicator
light
1. Push and hold the “TRIP” button
for a MAXIMUM of three
seconds. While pushing the
“TRIP” button, turn the key to
“f”.
2. Release the “TRIP” button and
the oil change indicator light will
go off.
3. Turn the key to “e”.
NOTE:
If the engine oil is changed before the
oil change indicator light comes on
(i.e. before the periodic oil change
interval has been reached), the indi-
cator light must be reset after the oil
change for the next periodic oil chan-
ge to be indicated at the correct time.
To reset the oil change indicator light
before the periodic oil change interval
has been reached, follow the above
procedure, but note that the indicator
light will come on for 1.4 seconds
after releasing the reset button, other-
wise repeat the procedure.
Recommended engine oil:
See page 8-1.
Oil change quantity:
1,3 L (0,286 US qt) (1,144 Imp.qt)

Final gear oil
1. Oil filler cap
The final gear case must be checked
for oil leakage before each ride. If any
leakage is found, have a Yamaha dea-
ler check and repair the vehicle. In
addition, the final gear oil must be
changed as follows at the intervals
specified in the periodic maintenance
and lubrication chart.
EWA10370

WARNING
Make sure that no foreign
material enters the final gear
case.
Make sure that no oil gets on
the tire or wheel.
To check the final gear oil level
1. Place the vehicle on the centers-
tand.
1. Drain bolt
NOTE:
The final gear oil level must be
checked on a cold engine.
Make sure that the vehicle is posi-
tioned straight up when checking
the oil level. A slight tilt to the side
can result in a false reading.
2. Remove the oil filler bolt, and
then check the oil level in the final
gear case.
NOTE:
The oil level should be at the brim of
the filler hole.
3. If the oil is below the brim of the
filler hole, add sufficient oil of the
recommended type to raise it to
the correct level.
4. Install the oil filler bolt, and then
tighten it to the specified torque.
To change the final gear oil
1. Place an oil pan under the final
gear case to collect the used oil.
2. Remove the oil filler bolt and
drain bolt to drain the oil from the
final gear case.
3. Install the final gear oil drain bolt,
and then tighten it to the speci-
fied torque.
Tightening torque:
Final gear oil filler bolt:

Coolant
1. Maximum level
2. Minimum level
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.
EAUS1080
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 tank cap
2. Check the coolant level through
the check window.
NOTE:
The coolant should be between the
minimum and maximum level marks.
