WARNING
The vehicle must not be ridden with
the sidestand down, or if the sides-
tand 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
operator in fulfilling the responsibi-
lity of raising the sidestand before
starting off. Therefore, check this
system regularly as described
below and have a Yamaha dealer
repair it if it does not function pro-
perly.
EAU15362
Ignition circuit cut-off
system
The ignition circuit cut-off system
(comprising the sidestand switch and
brake light switches) has the following
functions.
●It prevents starting when the
sidestand is up, but neither brake
is applied.
●It prevents starting when either
brake is applied, but the sides-
tand 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.
TIP
This check is most reliable if perfor-
med with a warmed-up engine.

WARNING
●Avoid braking hard or suddenly
(especially when leaning over
to one side), otherwise the sco-
oter may skid or overturn.
●Railroad crossings, streetcar
rails, iron plates on road cons-
truction 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 bra-
king downhill can be very diffi-
cult.
1. Close the throttle completely.
2. Apply both front and rear brakes
simultaneously while gradually
increasing the pressure.Front

EAU16820
Tips for reducing fuel
consumption
Fuel consumption depends largely on
your riding style. Consider the follo-
wing 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 cros-
sings).
