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.

TIP● The annual checks must be performed every year, except if a kilometer-based maintenance, or for the UK, a
mileage-based maintenance, is performed instead.● From 30000 km (17500 mi), repeat the maintenance intervals starting from 6000 km (3500 mi).● Items marked with an asterisk should be performed by a Yamaha dealer as they require special tools, data and
technical skills.

1. Spark plug wrenchTo check the spark plug
1. Check that the porcelain insula-
tor around the center electrode
of the spark plug is a medium-to-
light tan (the ideal color when the
vehicle is ridden normally).TIPIf the spark plug shows a distinctly
different color, the engine could be
operating improperly. Do not attempt
to diagnose such problems yourself.
Instead, have a Yamaha dealer check
the vehicle.
2. Check the spark plug for elec-trode erosion and excessive
carbon or other deposits, and re-
place it if necessary.
Speci ed spark plug:
CPR9EA-9 (NGK)To install the spark plug
1. Measure the spark plug gap with
a wire thickness gauge and, if
necessary, adjust the gap to
specifi cation.Spark plug gap:
0.8 ~ 0.9 mm (0.031 ~ 0.035 in)2. Clean the surface of the spark
plug gasket and its mating sur-
face, and then wipe off any grime
from the spark plug threads.
3. Install the spark plug with the
spark plug wrench, and then
tighten it to the specifi ed torque.Tightening torque:
Spark plug:
13 Nm (1.3 m·kgf, 9.4 ft·lbf)
EAUT1835
Checking the spark plugThe spark plug is an important engine
component, which is easy to check.
Since heat and deposits will cause
any spark plug to slowly erode, the
spark plug should be removed and
checked in accordance with the pe-
riodic maintenance and lubrication
chart. In addition, the condition of the
spark plug can reveal the condition of
the engine.
To remove the spark plug
1. Place the vehicle on the center-
stand.
2. Remove panel C. (See page 6-8.)
3. Remove the spark plug cap.
4. Remove the spark plug as
shown, with the spark plug
wrench included in the owner’s
tool kit.

Engine oil and oil strainerThe engine oil level should be
checked before each ride. In addition,
the oil must be changed and the oil
strainer cleaned at the intervals speci-
fied in the periodic maintenance and
lubrication chart.
To check the engine oil level
1. Place the scooter on the center-
stand. A slight tilt to the side can
result in a false reading.
2. Start the engine, warm it up for
several minutes, and then turn it
off.

3. Wait a few minutes until the oil
settles, remove the oil filler cap,
wipe the dipstick clean, insert it
back into the oil fi ller hole (without
screwing it in), and then remove it
again to check the oil level.TIPThe engine oil should be between the
minimum and maximum level marks.
4. If the engine oil is below the mini-
mum level mark, add suffi cient oil
of the recommended type to raise
it to the correct level.
5. Insert the dipstick into the oil fi ller
hole, and then tighten the oil fi ller
cap.
To change the engine oil and clean
the oil strainer
1. Start the engine, warm it up for
several minutes, and then turn it
off.
2. Place an oil pan under the engine
to collect the used oil.
3. Remove the engine oil filler cap
and the engine oil drain bolts A
TIPIf a torque wrench is not available
when installing a spark plug, a good
estimate of the correct torque is 1/4 ~
1/2 turn past fi nger tight. However, the
spark plug should be tightened to the
specifi ed torque as soon as possible.
4. Install the spark plug cap.
5. Install the panel.
