1. Fuel tank fi ller tube
2. Maximum fuel levelMake sure there is suffi cient gasoline
in the tank.
EWA10881
WARNING
Gasoline and gasoline vapors are
extremely ammable. To avoid res
and explosions and to reduce the
risk of injury when refueling, follow
these instructions.
1. Before refueling, turn off the en-
gine and be sure that no one is
sitting on the vehicle. Never re-
fuel while smoking, or while in the
vicinity of sparks, open fl ames, or
other sources of ignition such as
the pilot lights of water heaters
and clothes dryers.
2. Do not overfi ll the fuel tank. When
refueling, be sure to insert the
pump nozzle into the fuel tank fi ll-
er hole. Stop fi lling when the fuel
reaches the bottom of the filler
tube. 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 im-
mediately.
NOTICE:
Immedi-
ately wipe off spilled fuel with a
clean, dry, soft cloth, since fuel
may deteriorate painted sur-
faces or plastic parts.[ECA10071]
4. Be sure to securely close the fuel
tank cap.
EWA15151
WARNING
Gasoline is poisonous and can
cause injury or death. Handle
gasoline with care. Never siphon
gasoline by mouth. If you should
swallow some gasoline or inhale a

PERIODIC MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENTare no open flames or sparks in
the area, including pilot lights from
water heaters or furnaces. Gasoline
or gasoline vapors can ignite or
explode, causing severe injury or
property damage.
EAU25881
TroubleshootingAlthough Yamaha scooters receive a
thorough inspection before shipment
from the factory, trouble may occur
during operation. Any problem in the
fuel, compression, or ignition systems,
for example, can cause poor starting
and loss of power.
The following troubleshooting charts
represent quick and easy procedures
for checking these vital systems your-
self. However, should your scooter
require any repair, take it to a Yamaha
dealer, whose skilled technicians have
the necessary tools, experience, and
know-how to service the scooter prop-
erly.
Use only genuine Yamaha replace-
ment parts. Imitation parts may look
like Yamaha parts, but they are often
inferior, have a shorter service life and
can lead to expensive repair bills.
EWA15141
WARNING
When checking the fuel system, do
not smoke, and make sure there
