OPERATION AND IMPORTANT RIDING POINTS
EAU16820
Tips for reducing fuel con-
sumptionFuel consumption depends largely on
your riding style. Consider the follow-
ing 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 cross-
ings).
EAU16830
Engine break-inThere is never a more important pe-
riod 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 fi rst
1000 km (600 mi). The various parts
in the engine wear and polish them-
selves to the correct operating clear-
ances. During this period, prolonged
full-throttle operation or any condition
that might result in engine overheating
must be avoided.
EAUT3540
0 ~ 150 km (0 ~ 90 mi)
Avoid prolonged operation above 1/3
throttle.
After every hour of operation, stop the
engine, and then let it cool for fi ve to
ten minutes.
Vary the engine speed from time to
time. Do not operate the engine at
one set throttle position.
150 ~ 500 km (90 ~ 300 mi)
Avoid prolonged operation above 1/2
throttle.
500 ~ 1000 km (300 ~ 600 mi)
Avoid prolonged operation above
3/4 throttle.
NOTICE:
After 1000
km (600 mi) of operation, be sure
to change the engine oil and final
transmission oil, and to clean the
oil strainer.
[ECA16501]
1000 km (600 mi) and beyond
Avoid prolonged full-throttle operation.
Vary the engine speed occasionally.
ECA10270
NOTICEIf any engine trouble should occur
during the engine break-in period,
immediately have a Yamaha dealer
check the vehicle.

1. Final transmission oil fi ller cap4. Remove the fi nal transmission oil
filler cap and its O-ring from the
fi nal transmission case.
5. Remove the fi nal transmission oil
drain bolt and its gasket to drain
the oil from the fi nal transmission
case.
EAU20065
Final transmission oilThe final transmission case must be
checked for oil leakage before each
ride. If any leakage is found, have a
Yamaha dealer check and repair the
scooter. In addition, the fi nal transmis-
sion oil must be changed as follows at
the intervals specified in the periodic
maintenance and lubrication chart.
1. Start the engine, warm up the fi -
nal transmission oil by riding the
scooter for several minutes, and
then stop the engine.
2. Place the scooter on the center-
stand.
3. Place an oil pan under the final
transmission case to collect the
used oil.
9. Start the engine, and then let
it idle for several minutes while
checking it for oil leakage. If oil is
leaking, immediately turn the en-
gine off and check for the cause.
10. Turn the engine off, and then
check the oil level and correct it if
necessary.
To reset the oil change indicator
and oil change tripmeterTIPThe oil change indicator and oil
change tripmeter can be reset when
“OIL CHANGE” and “OIL TRIP” ap-
pear in the multi-function display. (see
page 3-3.)

CoolantThe coolant level should be checked
before each ride. In addition, the cool-
ant must be changed at the intervals
specifi ed in the periodic maintenance
and lubrication chart.
EAUT3690
To check the coolant level
The coolant level should be checked
as follows before each ride. In addi-
tion, the coolant must be changed at
the intervals specified in the periodic
maintenance and lubrication chart.
1. Place the vehicle on the center-
stand.TIP● The coolant level must be
checked on a cold engine since
the level varies with engine tem-
perature.● Make sure that the vehicle is po-
sitioned straight up when check-
ing the coolant level. A slight tilt
to the side can result in a false

drain bolt and its new gasket, and
then tighten the bolt to the speci-
fi ed torque.Tightening torque:
Final transmission oil drain bolt:
20 Nm (2.0 m·kgf, 14.5 ft·lbf)7. Refi ll with the specifi ed amount of
the recommended fi nal transmis-
sion oil. WARNING! Make sure
that no foreign material enters
the final transmission case.
Make sure that no oil gets on
the tire or wheel.
