Fuel
Make sure there is sufficient gasoline
in the tank.
EWA10881
Gasoline and gasoline vapors are
extremely flammable. To avoid fires
and explosions and to reduce the
risk of injury when refueling, follow
these instructions.
1. Before refueling, turn off the engi-
ne and be sure that no one is sit-
ting on the vehicle. Never refuel
while smoking, or while in the
vicinity of sparks, open flames, or
other sources of ignition such as
the pilot lights of water heaters
and clothes dryers.
2. Do not overfill the fuel tank. Stop
filling when the fuel reaches the
bottom of the filler tube. Because
fuel expands when it heats up,
heat from the engine or the sun
can cause fuel to spill out of the
fuel tank.

EWA15151
Gasoline is poisonous and can cause
injury or death. Handle gasoline with
care. Never siphon gasoline by
mouth. If you should swallow some
gasoline or inhale a lot of gasoline
vapor, or get some gasoline in your
eyes, see your doctor immediately. Ifgasoline spills on your skin, wash with
soap and water. If gasoline spills on
your clothing, change your clothes.
EAU33520
ECA11400
Use only unleaded gasoline. The
use of leaded gasoline will cause
severe damage to internal engine
parts, such as the valves and piston
rings, as well as to the exhaust sys-
tem.
Your Yamaha engine has been desig-
ned to use regular unleaded gasoline
with a research octane number of 91 or
higher. If knocking (or pinging) occurs,
use a gasoline of a different brand or
premium unleaded fuel. Use of unlea-
ded fuel will extend spark plug life and
reduce maintenance costs.
EAU13445
Catalytic converters
This vehicle is equipped with catalytic
converters in the exhaust system.
EWA10862
The exhaust system is hot after
operation. To prevent a fire hazard
or burns:
Do not park the vehicle near
possible fire hazards such as
grass or other materials that
easily burn.
Park the vehicle in a place
where pedestrians or children
are not likely to touch the hot
exhaust system.
Make sure that the exhaust
system has cooled down befo-
re doing any maintenance
work.
Do not allow the engine to idle
more than a few minutes. Long
idling can cause a build-up of
heat.
