SCOOTERS ARE SINGLE TRACK
VEHICLES. THEIR SAFE USE AND
OPERATION ARE DEPENDENT
UPON THE USE OF PROPER RIDING
TECHNIQUES AS WELL AS THE
EXPERTISE OF THE OPERATOR.
EVERY OPERATOR SHOULD KNOW
THE FOLLOWING REQUIREMENTS
BEFORE RIDING THIS SCOOTER.
HE OR SHE SHOULD:
OBTAIN THOROUGH INSTRUC-
TIONS FROM A COMPETENT
SOURCE ON ALL ASPECTS OF
SCOOTER OPERATION.
OBSERVE THE WARNINGS AND
MAINTENANCE REQUIRE-
MENTS IN THE OWNER’S
MANUAL.
OBTAIN QUALIFIED TRAINING
IN SAFE AND PROPER RIDING
TECHNIQUES.
OBTAIN PROFESSIONAL TECH-
NICAL SERVICE AS INDICATED
BY THE OWNER’S MANUAL
AND/OR WHEN MADE NECES-
SARY BY MECHANICAL CONDI-
TIONS.Safe riding
Always make pre-operation
checks. Careful checks may help
prevent an accident.
This scooter is designed to carry
the operator and passenger.
The failure of motorists to detect
and recognize scooters in traffic
is the predominating cause of
automobile/scooter accidents.
Many accidents have been cau-
sed by an automobile driver who
did not see the scooter. Making
yourself conspicuous appears to
be very effective in reducing the
chance of this type of accident.
Therefore:
• Wear a brightly colored jacket.
• Use extra caution when appro-
aching and passing through
intersections, since intersec-
tions are the most likely places
for scooter accidents to occur.
• Ride where other motorists can
see you. Avoid riding in anot-
her motorist’s blind spot.
Many accidents involve inexpe-
rienced operators. In fact, many
operators who have been invol-ved in accidents do not even
have a current driver’s license.
• Make sure that you are quali-
fied and that you only lend your
scooter to other qualified ope-
rators.
• Know your skills and limits.
Staying within your limits may
help you to avoid an accident.
• We recommend that you prac-
tice riding your scooter where
there is no traffic until you have
become thoroughly familiar
with the scooter and all of its
controls.
Many accidents have been cau-
sed by error of the scooter ope-
rator. A typical error made by the
operator is veering wide on a turn
due to EXCESSIVE SPEED or
undercornering (insufficient lean
angle for the speed).
• Always obey the speed limit
and never travel faster than
warranted by road and traffic
conditions.
• Always signal before turning or
changing lanes. Make sure that
other motorists can see you.

Ambient temperature display
1. Frost warning indicator
2. Negative symbol
3. Ambient temperature
This display shows the ambient tem-
perature from -30°C (-22°F) to 50°C
(122°F).
The frost warning indicator “
*” auto-
matically comes on if the temperature
is lower than 3°C (37.4°F).
1. Service indicator
Oil change indicator “OIL”
The engine oil should be changed
when this indicator comes on. The
indicator stays on until it is reset. After
changing the engine oil, reset the indi-
cator as follows.
1. While holding the “MODE” and
“SET” buttons pushed, turn the
key to “ON”.
2. Continue holding the “MODE”
and “SET” buttons pushed for
two to five seconds.
3. Release the buttons and the oil
change indicator will go off.
NOTE:
The oil change indicator will
come on at the initial 1000 km
(600 mi) and every 6000 km
(3600 mi) thereafter.
If the engine oil is changed before
the oil change indicator comes on
(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. After resetting, the
indicator will come on for two
seconds. If the indicator does not
come on, repeat the procedure.

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.

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.

• Regularly check and, if necessary, correct the brake fluid level.
• Every two years replace the internal components of the brake master cylinder and caliper, and change the bra-
ke fluid.
• Replace the brake hoses every four years and if cracked or damaged.

To install the spark plug
1. Spark plug gap
1. Measure the spark plug gap with
a wire thickness gauge and, if
necessary, adjust the gap to spe-
cification.
2. Clean the surface of the spark
plug gasket and its mating surfa-
ce, and then wipe off any grime
from the spark plug threads.
3. Install the spark plug with the
spark plug wrench, and then
tighten it to the specified torque.
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.
4. Install the spark plug cap.
5. Install the storage compartment
by installing the bolts.
6. Close the seat.

Engine oil
The engine oil level should be chec-
ked before each ride. In addition, the
oil must be changed at the intervals
specified in the periodic maintenance
and lubrication chart and when the
service indicator light comes on.
To check the engine oil level
1. Place the scooter on the centers-
tand.
NOTE:
Make sure that the scooter is positio-
ned straight up when checking the oil
level. A slight tilt to the side can result
in a false reading.
2. Start the engine, warm it up for
several minutes, and then turn it
off.
Tightening torque:
Spark plug:
12.5 Nm (1.25m•kgf, 9.05 ft•lbf)
Spark plug gap:
0.8 - 0.9 mm (0.031 - 0.035 in)

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.
7. 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.
8. Reset the service indicator. (See
page 3-7.)

Final transmission oil
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.
2. Place the scooter on the centers-
tand.
3. Place an oil pan under the final
transmission case to collect the
used oil.
1. Final transmission oil filler cap
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.

Troubleshooting
Although Yamaha scooters receive a
thorough inspection before shipment
from the factory, trouble may occur
during operation. Any problem in the
fuel, compression, or ignition sys-
tems, for example, can cause poor
starting and loss of power.
The following troubleshooting charts
represent quick and easy procedures
for checking these vital systems your-
self. However, should your scooter
require any repair, take it to a Yamaha
dealer, whose skilled technicians
have the necessary tools, experience,
and know-how to service the scooter
properly.
Use only genuine Yamaha replace-
ment parts. Imitation parts may look
like Yamaha parts, but they are often
inferior, have a shorter service life and
can lead to expensive repair bills.
