Electric Power Steering warning light “EPS”
This warning light comes on if there is a problem in
the EPS. When this occurs, have a Yamaha dealer
check the EPS system. If the engine stalls and the
key is in the “” (on) position, the EPS warning
light comes on to indicate that the power assis-
tance for the steering is not functioning.
The electrical circuit of the warning light can be
checked by turning the key to “” (on). If the
warning light does not come on, have a Yamaha
dealer check the electrical circuit. If the warning
light comes on, and does not go off after starting
the engine, have a Yamaha dealer check the elec-
trical circuit.TIPIf the steering load is too heavy (i.e., excessive
steering use when the vehicle is traveling at a slow
speed), the power assist is reduced to protect the
EPS motor from overheating.

Engine break-in
There is never a more important period in the life of
your vehicle than the period between zero and
20 hours.
For this reason, we ask that you read the following
material carefully. Because the engine is brand
new, you must not put an excessive load on it for
the first several hours of operation. During the first
20 hours, the various parts in the engine wear and
polish themselves to achieve the correct operating
clearances.
During this period, prolonged full-throttle operation
or any condition that might result in excessive en-
gine heating must be avoided. However, momen-
tary (2–3 seconds maximum) full-throttle operation
under load does not harm the engine.

15. Insert the projections on the air filter case
cover into the holders on the air filter case,
and then install the air filter case cover by
hooking the holders onto the cover.
16. Close the hood.
The air filter element should be cleaned every 20–
40 hours. It should be cleaned and lubricated
more often if the vehicle is operated in dusty areas.
Each time air filter element maintenance is per-
formed, check the air inlet to the air filter case for
obstructions. Check the air filter element rubber
joint to the throttle body and manifold fittings for an
airtight seal. Tighten all fittings securely to avoid
the possibility of unfiltered air entering the engine.NOTICENever operate the engine with the air filter ele-
ment removed. This will allow unfiltered air to
enter, causing rapid engine wear and possible
engine damage. Additionally, operation with-
out the air filter element will affect the fuel in-
jection system with subsequent poor
performance and possible engine overheating.

Engine overheating
Wait for the engine to cool before removing the radiator cap. WARNING! If the engine is not cool when
removing the radiator cap, hot fluid and steam could blow out under pressure and burn you. Place
a thick rag over the cap and remove the cap slowly to allow any remaining pressure to escape.
If it is difficult to get the recommended coolant, tap water can be used temporarily, provided that it is
changed to the recommended coolant as soon as possible.Wait until the
engine has cooled.
Check the coolant level in the
coolant reservoir and/or radiator.
Level is OK.Level is low, check the
cooling system for leakage.
No
leakage.Leakage.
Ask a Yamaha dealer to inspect
and repair the cooling system.Add coolant. (See the text below.)
Restart the engine. If the engine overheats again, ask a
Yamaha dealer to inspect and/or repair the cooling system.
