an electric failure could result,
which could cause a dangerous
loss of lights or engine power.
Gasoline and exhaust gas
GASOLINE IS HIGHLY FLAMMA-
BLE:
• Always turn the engine off
when refueling.
• Take care not to spill any gaso-
line on the engine or exhaust
system when refueling.
• Never refuel while smoking or
in the vicinity of an open flame.
Never 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
consciousness and death within
a short time. Always operate your
scooter in an area that has ade-
quate ventilation.
Always turn the engine off before
leaving the scooter unattended
and remove the key from the
main switch. When parking the
scooter, note the following:
• The engine and exhaust sys-
tem may be hot, therefore,
park the scooter in a placewhere pedestrians or children
are not likely to touch these hot
areas.
• Do not park the scooter on a
slope or soft ground, otherwise
it may fall over.
• Do not park the scooter near a
flammable source (e.g., a kero-
sene heater, or near an open
flame), otherwise it could catch
fire.
If you should swallow any gasoli-
ne, inhale a lot of gasoline vapor,
or allow gasoline to get into your
eyes, see your doctor immedia-
tely. If any gasoline spills on your
skin or clothing, immediately
wash the affected area with soap
and water and change your clot-
hes.
EAU10371
Further safe-riding points
Be sure to signal clearly when
making turns.
Braking can be extremely difficult
on a wet road. Avoid hard bra-
king, because the scooter could
slide. Apply the brakes slowlywhen stopping on a wet surface.
Slow down as you approach a
corner or turn. Once you have
completed a turn, accelerate
slowly.
Be careful when passing parked
cars. A driver might not see you
and open a door in your path.
Railroad crossings, streetcar
rails, iron plates on road cons-
truction sites, and manhole
covers become extremely slip-
pery when wet. Slow down and
cross them with caution. Keep
the scooter upright, otherwise it
could slide out from under you.
The brake pads could get wet
when you wash the scooter. After
washing the scooter, check the
brakes before riding.
Always wear a helmet, gloves,
trousers (tapered around the cuff
and ankle so they do not flap),
and a bright colored jacket.
Do not carry too much luggage
on the scooter. An overloaded
scooter is unstable.

EAU11350
Fuel level warning light “ ”
This warning light comes on when the
fuel level drops below approximately
2 L (0.44 US gal) (1.76 Imp.gal). When
this occurs, refuel as soon as possi-
ble.
The electrical circuit of the warning
light can be checked by turning the
key to “ON”.
If the warning light does not come on
for a few seconds, then go off, have a
Yamaha dealer check the electrical
circuit.
EAU11480
Engine trouble warning light “ ”
This warning light comes on when an
electrical circuit monitoring the engine
is defective. When this occurs, have a
Yamaha dealer check the self-diagno-
sis system.
The electrical circuit of the warning
light can be checked by turning thekey to “ON”. If the warning light does
not come on for a few seconds, then
go off, have a Yamaha dealer check
the electrical circuit.

“”
The electrical circuit of the indicator
light can be checked by turning the
key to “ON”.
If the indicator light does not come on
for a few seconds, then go off, have a
Yamaha dealer check the electrical
circuit.
When the key is turned to “OFF”, the
indicator light will start flashing indi-
cating the immobilizer system is ena-
bled. After 24 hours have passed, the
indicator light will stop flashing,

Fuel gauge
1. Fuel gauge
2. Fuel warning light
The fuel gauge indicates the amount
of fuel in the fuel tank. The needle
moves towards “E” (Empty) as the
fuel level decreases. When the needle
reaches “E”, approximately 2.0L (0.44
USgal) (1.76lmpgal) of fuel remain in
the fuel tank. If this occurs, refuel as
soon as possible.
NOTE:
Do not allow the fuel tank to empty
itself completely.
EAU12171
Coolant temperature gauge
1. Temperature gauge
With the key in the “ON” position, the
coolant temperature gauge indicates
the temperature of the coolant. The
coolant temperature varies with chan-
ges in the weather and engine load. If
the needle reaches or enters the red
zone, stop the vehicle and let the
engine cool. (See page 6-29.)

CAUTION:
Do not operate the engine if it is

Multi-function display
1. “MODE” button
2. Multi-function display
3. “SET” button
The multi-function display is equip-
ped with the following:
an odometer (which shows the
total distance traveled)
two tripmeters (which show the
distance traveled since they were
last set to zero, the time passed
since the tripmeters were set to
zero, and the average speed tra-
veled during this time)
a fuel reserve tripmeter (which
shows the distance traveled sin-
ce the fuel level warning light
came on)
a clock
an ambient temperature display
a service indicator (which is dis-
played when periodic maintenan-
ce and lubrication is necessary)
NOTE:
For the UK, the distance traveled
is displayed in miles and the tem-
perature reading is displayed in
°F.
For other countries, the distance
traveled is displayed in kilome-
ters and the temperature reading
is displayed in °C.
