PERIODIC MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENT
EAUS1823
Periodic inspection, adjustment, and
lubrication will keep your vehicle in
the safest and most effi cient condition
possible. Safety is an obligation of
the vehicle owner/operator. The most
important points of vehicle inspection,
adjustment, and lubrication are ex-
plained on the following pages.
The intervals given in the periodic
maintenance charts should be simply
considered as a general guide under
normal riding conditions. However,
depending on the weather, terrain,
geographical location, and individual
use, the maintenance intervals may
need to be shortened.
EWA10321
WARNING
Failure to properly maintain the
vehicle or performing maintenance
activities incorrectly may increase
your risk of injury or death during
service or while using the vehicle.
If you are not familiar with vehicle
service, have a Yamaha dealer per-
form service.
EWA15122
WARNING
Turn off the engine when perform-
ing maintenance unless otherwise
speci ed.● A running engine has moving
parts that can catch on body
parts or clothing and electrical
parts that can cause shocks or
res.● Running the engine while ser-
vicing can lead to eye injury,
burns, fire, or carbon monox-
ide poisoning - possibly lead-
ing to death. See page 1-2 for
more information about carbon
monoxide.
EWA10330
WARNING
This scooter is designed for use
on paved roads only. If this scooter
is operated in abnormally dusty,
muddy or wet conditions, the air
lter element should be cleaned or
replaced more frequently, other-
wise rapid engine wear may result.
Consult a Yamaha dealer for proper
maintenance intervals.
EWA15460
WARNING
Brake discs, calipers, drums, and
linings can become very hot dur-
ing use. To avoid possible burns,
let brake components cool before
touching them.
EAU17302
Emission controls not only function
to ensure cleaner air, but are also
vital to proper engine operation and
maximum performance. In the follow-
ing periodic maintenance charts, the
services related to emissions control
are grouped separately. These serv-
ices require specialized data, knowl-
edge, and equipment. Maintenance,
replacement, or repair of the emission
control devices and systems may be
performed by any repair establishment
or individual that is certifi ed (if applica-
ble). Yamaha dealers are trained and
equipped to perform these particular
services.

TIP● Air fi lter and V-belt fi lter
• This model’s air fi lter is equipped with a disposable oil-coated paper element, which must not be cleaned with
compressed air to avoid damaging it.
• The air fi lter element needs to be replaced and V-belt fi lter needs to be serviced more frequently when riding in
unusually wet or dusty areas.● Hydraulic brake service
• After disassembling the brake master cylinder and caliper, always change the fl uid. Regularly check the brake
fl uid level and fi ll the reservoir as required.
• Every two years replace the internal components of the brake master cylinder and caliper, and change the brake
fl uid.
• Replace the brake hose every four years and if cracked or damaged.

TroubleshootingAlthough Yamaha scooters receive a
thorough inspection before shipment
from the factory, trouble may occur
during operation. Any problem in the
fuel, compression, or ignition systems,
for example, can cause poor starting
and loss of power.
The following troubleshooting chart
represents a quick and easy pro-
cedure for checking these vital sys-
tems yourself. However, should your
scooter require any repair, take it to a
Yamaha dealer, whose skilled techni-
cians have the necessary tools, expe-
rience, 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.
EWA15141
WARNING
When checking the fuel system, do
not smoke, and make sure there
are no open flames or sparks in
