Battery
1. Battery
2. Positive battery lead (red)
3. Negative battery lead (black)
The battery is located behind panel A.
(See page 6-5).
This model is equipped with a VRLA
(Valve Regulated Lead Acid) battery.
There is no need to check the elec-
trolyte or to add distilled water. Howe-
ver, the battery lead connections
need to be checked and, if necessary,
tightened.
ECA10620
NOTICE
Never attempt to remove the bat-
tery cell seals, as this would per-
manently damage the battery.
EWA10760
sWARNING
●Electrolyte is poisonous and
dangerous since it contains
sulfuric acid, which causes
severe burns. Avoid any con-
tact with skin, eyes or clothing
and always shield your eyes
when working near batteries.
In case of contact, administer
the following FIRST AID.
• EXTERNAL: Flush with plenty
of water.
• INTERNAL: Drink large quan-
tities of water or milk and
immediately call a physician.
• EYES: Flush with water for 15
minutes and seek prompt
medical attention.
●Batteries produce explosive
hydrogen gas. Therefore, keep
sparks, flames, cigarettes, etc.,
away from the battery and pro-
vide sufficient ventilation when

charging it in an enclosed spa-
ce.
●KEEP THIS AND ALL BATTE-
RIES OUT OF THE REACH OF
CHILDREN.
To charge the battery
1. Have a Yamaha dealer charge the
battery as soon as possible if it
seems to have discharged. Keep
in mind that the battery tends to
discharge more quickly if the
vehicle is equipped with optional
electrical accessories.
ECA16520
NOTICE
To charge a VRLA (Valve Regulated
Lead Acid) battery, a special (cons-
tant-voltage) battery charger is
required. Using a conventional bat-
tery charger will damage the bat-
tery. If you do not have access to a
constant-voltage battery charger,
have a Yamaha dealer charge your
battery.
To store the battery
1. If the vehicle will not be used for
more than one month, remove
the battery, fully charge it, and
then place it in a cool, dry place.
NOTICE: When removing the
battery, be sure the key is
turned to “ ” , then discon-
nect the negative lead before
disconnecting the positive
lead.
[ECA16302]
2. If the battery will be stored for
more than two months, check it
at least once a month and fully
charge it if necessary.
3. Fully charge the battery before
installation.
4. After installation, make sure that
the battery leads are properly
connected to the battery termi-
nals.
ECA16530
NOTICE
Always keep the battery charged.
Storing a discharged battery can
cause permanent battery damage.
EAU23503
Replacing the fuse
1. Main fuse
The fuse holder is located behind
panel A. (See page 6-5).
If the fuse is blown, replace it as
follows.
1. Turn the key to “ ” and turn off
all electrical circuits.
2. Remove the blown fuse, and then
install a new fuse of the specified
amperage. WARNING! Do not

3. Fill up the fuel tank and add fuel
stabilizer (if available) to prevent
the fuel tank from rusting and the
fuel from deteriorating.
4. Perform the following steps to
protect the cylinder, piston rings,
etc. from corrosion.
a. Remove the spark plug cap
and spark plug.
b. Pour a teaspoonful of engine
oil into the spark plug bore.
c. Install the spark plug cap
onto the spark plug, and then
place the spark plug on the
cylinder head so that the
electrodes are grounded.
(This will limit sparking during
the next step.)
d. Turn the engine over several
times with the starter. (This
will coat the cylinder wall with
oil.) WARNING! To prevent
damage or injury from spar-
king, make sure to ground
the spark plug electrodes
while turning the engine
over. e. Remove the spark plug cap
from the spark plug, and then
install the spark plug and the
spark plug cap.
5. Lubricate all control cables and
the pivoting points of all levers
and pedals as well as of the
sidestand/centerstand.
6. Check and, if necessary, correct
the tire air pressure, and then lift
the scooter so that both of its
wheels are off the ground. Alter-
natively, turn the wheels a little
every month in order to prevent
the tires from becoming degra-
ded in one spot.
7. Cover the muffler outlet with a
plastic bag to prevent moisture
from entering it.
8. Remove the battery and fully
charge it. Store it in a cool, dry
place and charge it once a
month. Do not store the battery in
an excessively cold or warm pla-
ce [less than 0 °C (30 °F) or more
than 30 °C (90 °F)]. For more
information on storing the bat-
tery, see page 6-19.TIP
Make any necessary repairs before
storing the scooter.
