If you drive the vehicle with the parking
brake engaged, a buzzer will sound. EBU36633YCC-S systemThis vehicle is equipped with the Yamaha
Chip Controlled-Shift system (YCC-S) with
AUTO DOWNSHIFT.
YCC-S allows the driver to operate the man-
ual transmission without having to operate
the clutch. AUTO DOWNSHIFT automatically
shifts the transmission into first gear when
coming to a stop under normal conditions.
The transmission is operated using the drive
select lever and the shift paddles. The drive
select lever is used to shift the transmission
into forward drive (first gear), neutral, and re-
verse gear. The shift paddles are used to shift
through the forward gears.
When the drive select lever or shift paddles
are moved, a signal is sent to the MCU (motor
control unit) which disengages the clutch, the
gear shift is made, and then the clutch is re- engaged once the engine is running at proper
speed. Clutch engagement is controlled by
the MCU according to engine speed and oth-
er driving conditions.
TIP
This is not an automatic transmission, only
the clutch system is automatic.
 The gears must be shifted by the driver, ex-
cept when AUTO DOWNSHIFT shifts the
transmission into first gear.
 See page 7-3 for more information on shift-
ing.

WARNING
EWB02522Gasoline and gasoline vapors are ex-
tremely flammable. To avoid fires and ex-
plosions and to reduce the risk of injury
when refueling, follow these instructions. 1. Before refueling, turn off the engine andbe sure that no one is sitting in the vehi-
cle.
Never refuel while smoking, or while in
the vicinity of sparks, open flames, or
other sources of ignition such as the pilot
lights of water heaters and clothes dry-
ers.
2. Do not overfill the fuel tank. Because fuel expands when it heats up, heat from the
engine or the sun can cause fuel to spill
out of the fuel tank.
3. Wipe up any spilled fuel immediately.
4. Be sure the fuel tank cap is closed se-
curely.
WARNING
EWB02532Gasoline is poisonous and can cause inju-
ry or death. Handle gasoline with care.
Never siphon gasoline by mouth. If you
should swallow some gasoline or inhale a
lot of gasoline vapor, or get some gasoline
in your eyes, see your doctor immediately.
If gasoline spills on your skin, wash with
soap and water. If gasoline spills on your
clothing, change your clothes. If knocking or pinging occurs, try a different
brand or higher octane gasoline. Unleaded
fuel will give you longer spark plug life and re-
duced maintenance cost. Gasoline contain-Recommended fuel:Regular unleaded gasoline (Gasohol [E10]
acceptable)
Fuel tank capacity: 34 L (9.0 US gal, 7.5 Imp.gal)
Fuel reserve amount: 8.5 L (2.24 US gal, 1.87 Imp.gal)
