WARNING
EWJ00283
Gasoline and gasoline vapors are ex-
tremely flammable. To avoid fires and
explosions and to reduce the risk of in-
jury when refueling, follow these in-
structions.
Gasoline is poisonous and can cause in-
jury or death. Handle gasoline with care.
Never siphon gasoline by mouth. If you
should swallow some gasoline, inhale a
lot of gasoline vapor, or get some gaso-
line in your eyes, see your doctor imme-
diately. If gasoline spills on your skin,
wash with soap and water. If gasoline
spills on your clothing, change your
clothes.
NOTICE
ECJ01870
Do not use leaded gasoline. Leaded
gasoline can seriously damage the en-
gine.
Avoid getting water and contaminants in
the fuel tank. Contaminated fuel can
cause poor performance and engine
damage. Use only fresh gasoline that
has been stored in clean containers.
Use only gasoline with a minimum pump
octane number of 91 or a minimum re-
search octane number of 95. Low-oc-
tane gasoline can seriously damage the
engine.
Your Yamaha engine has been designed to
use premium unleaded gasoline with a pump
octane number [(R+M)/2] of 91 or higher, or a
research octane number of 95 or higher. Ifknocking (or pinging) occurs, use a gasoline
of a different brand.
Gasohol
There are two types of gasohol: gasohol con-
taining ethanol and that containing methanol.
Gasohol containing ethanol can be used if
ethanol content does not exceed 10% and
the fuel meets the minimum octane ratings.
E-85 is a fuel blend containing 85% ethanol
and therefore must not be used in this water-
craft. All ethanol blends containing more than
10% ethanol can cause fuel system damage
or engine performance problems.
Yamaha does not recommend gasohol con-
taining methanol because it can cause fuel
system damage and engine performance
problems.
To fill the fuel tank:
(1) Before refueling, stop the engine. Do not
stand or sit on the watercraft. Never refu-
el while smoking, or while in the vicinity
of sparks, open flames, or other sources
of ignition.
(2) Place the watercraft in a well-ventilated
area and in a horizontal position.
(3) Remove the seats, and then check the
fuel level. (See page 40 for seat removal
and installation procedures.) Recommended fuel:
Premium unleaded gasoline with a
minimum octane rating of
91
(Pump octane number) = (R + M)/2
95 (Research octane number)

fuel filler cap and the hood are securely
closed before using the watercraft.
(11) Securely install the seats in their original
positions.EJU40291
Engine oil requirementsEJU41513Engine oil
NOTICE
ECJ00282
Use only 4-stroke engine oil. Usage of 2-
stroke engine oil could result in severe en-
gine damage.
TIP:
When the engine is operated at high speeds,
some engine oil may be consumed. Be sure
to check the engine oil level.
Checking the engine oil level
WARNING
EWJ00341
Engine oil is extremely hot immediately af-
ter the engine is turned off. Coming in con-
tact with or getting any engine oil on your
clothes could result in burns.
NOTICE
ECJ01002
Make sure that debris and water do not
enter the oil filler hole. Debris and water in
the engine oil can cause serious engine
damage.
To check the engine oil level:
(1) Place the watercraft in a precisely level
position on land with the engine
stopped. If the engine was running, allow
the engine oil to settle by waiting 5 min-
utes or more before checking the oil lev-
el.
(2) Remove the seats. (See page 40 for seat
removal and installation procedures.)
Recommended engine oil type:
SAE 10W-30, 10W-40, 20W-40,
20W-50
Recommended engine oil grade:
API SE,SF,SG,SH,SJ,SL
