this switch to “ ” to turn on the
hazard lighting (simultaneous flashing
of all turn signal lights). To turn off the
hazard lighting, set this switch to “h”
and, then turn the key to “OFF”.
TIP
Even if the key is turned from “ON” to
“OFF” with the hazard lighting on, the
hazard lighting will continue to flash
regardless of the hazard switch posi-
tion. To cancel the hazard lighting, the
key must be turned to “ON” and the
hazard switch must be set to the “h”
position.
The hazard lighting is used in case of
an emergency or to warn other drivers
when your scooter is stopped where
it might be a traffic hazard.

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).
EAU16830
Engine break-in
There 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 following 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 themsel-
ves to the correct operating clearan-
ces. During this period, prolonged
full-throttle operation or any condition
that might result in engine overhea-
ting must be avoided.
EAUM2281
0–500 km (0–300 mi)
●Avoid prolonged operation above
1/3 throttle.
500–1000 km (300–600 mi)
●Avoid prolonged operation above
1/2 throttle. NOTICE: After 1000
km (600 mi) of operation, the
engine oil and final transmis-
sion oil must be changed, andthe engine oil filter element
replaced.
[ECAM1091]
1000 km (600 mi) and beyond
●The vehicle can now be operated
normally.

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