Further safe-riding points●
Make sure to signal clearly when
making turns.
●
Braking can be extremely difficult
on a wet road. Avoid hard braking,
because the scooter could slide.
Apply the brakes slowly when stop-
ping on a wet surface.
●
Slow down as you approach a cor-
ner or turn. Once you have com-
pleted a turn, accelerate slowly.
●
Be careful when passing parked
cars. A driver might not see you and
open a door in your path.
●
Railroad crossings, streetcar rails,
iron plates on road construction
sites, and manhole covers become
extremely slippery when wet. Slow
down and cross them with caution.
Keep the scooter upright, otherwise
it could slide out from under you.
●
The brake lining could get wet when
you wash the scooter. After wash-
ing the scooter, check the brakes
before riding.
●
Always wear a helmet, gloves, trou-
sers (tapered around the cuff and
ankle so they do not flap), and a
bright colored jacket.
●
Do not carry too much luggage on
the scooter. An overloaded scooter
is unstable.
1-5
Safe-riding points
tric failure could result, which could
cause a dangerous loss of lights or
engine power.
Aftermarket Tires and Rims
The tires and rims that came with your
scooter were designed to match the
performance capabilities and to provide
the best combination of handling, brak-
ing, and comfort. Other tires, rims, sizes,
and combinations may not be appropri-
ate. Refer to page 6-12 for tire specifi-
cations and more information on replac-
ing your tires.

Starting the engine
EAU15951
Read the Owner’s Manual carefully to
become familiar with all controls. If there
is a control or function you do not un-
derstand, ask your Yamaha dealer.
EWA10271
WARNING
Failure to familiarize yourself with
the controls can lead to loss of con-
trol, which could cause an accident
or injury.
EAU45310
TIP
This model is equipped with a lean angle
sensor to stop the engine in case of a
turnover. To start the engine after a turn-
over, be sure to turn the main switch to
“OFF” and then to “ON”. Failing to do so
will prevent the engine from starting
even though the engine will crank when
pushing the start switch.
EAUT2251
Starting the engine
ECA10250
NOTICESee page 5-3 for engine break-in in-
structions prior to operating the ve-
hicle for the first time.1. Turn the key to “ON”.
ECAT1070
NOTICEThe engine trouble warning light and
coolant temperature warning light
should come on for a few seconds,
then go off. If these warning lights do
not go off, have a Yamaha dealer check
their electrical circuits.2. Close the throttle completely.
3. Start the engine by pushing the
start switch while applying the front
or rear brake.
NOTICE:
For maxi-
mum engine life, never acceler-
ate hard when the engine is
cold!
[ECA11041]
If the engine does not start, release
the start switch, wait a few sec-
onds, and then try again. Each
starting attempt should be as short
as possible to preserve the battery.
Do not crank the engine more than
5 seconds on any one attempt. If
the engine does not start with the
starter motor, try using the
kickstar ter.

SCOOTER CARE AND STORAGE

luted mild detergent with water
may be used. Be sure to rinse off
any detergent residue using
plenty of water, as it is harmful
to plastic parts.
● ●● ●
●
Do not use any harsh chemical
products on plastic parts. Be sure
to avoid using cloths or sponges
which have been in contact with
strong or abrasive cleaning prod-
ucts, solvent or thinner, fuel
(gasoline), rust removers or in-
hibitors, brake fluid, antifreeze or
electrolyte.
● ●● ●
●
Do not use high-pressure wash-
ers or steam-jet cleaners since
they cause water seepage and
deterioration in the following ar-
eas: seals (of wheel and
swingarm bearings, fork and
brakes), electric components
(couplers, connectors, instru-
ments, switches and lights),
breather hoses and vents.
● ●● ●
●
For scooters equipped with a
windshield: Do not use strongcleaners or hard sponges as they
will cause dulling or scratching.
Some cleaning compounds for
plastic may leave scratches on
the windshield. Test the product
on a small hidden part of the
windshield to make sure that it
does not leave any marks. If the
windshield is scratched, use a
quality plastic polishing com-
pound after washing.
After normal use
Remove dirt with warm water, a mild
detergent, and a soft, clean sponge, and
then rinse thoroughly with clean water.
Use a toothbrush or bottlebrush for hard-
to-reach areas. Stubborn dirt and insects
will come off more easily if the area is
covered with a wet cloth for a few min-
utes before cleaning.After riding in the rain, near the sea oron salt-sprayed roads
Since sea salt or salt sprayed on the
roads during winter are extremely corro-sive in combination with water, carry out
the following steps after each ride in the
rain, near the sea or on salt-sprayed
roads.
TIP
Salt sprayed on roads in the winter may
remain well into spring.1. Clean the scooter with cold water
and a mild detergent after the en-
gine has cooled down.
NOTICE:
Do
not use warm water since it in-
creases the corrosive action of
the salt.
[ECA10791]
2. Apply a corrosion protection spray
on all metal, including chrome- and
nickel-plated, surfaces to prevent
corrosion.
After cleaning
1. Dry the scooter with a chamois or
an absorbing cloth.
2. Use a chrome polish to shine
chrome, aluminum and stainless-
steel parts, including the exhaust

system. (Even the thermally in-
duced discoloring of stainless-steel
exhaust systems can be removed
through polishing.)
3. To prevent corrosion, it is recom-
mended to apply a corrosion pro-
tection spray on all metal, includ-
ing chrome- and nickel-plated, sur-
faces.
4. Use spray oil as a universal cleaner
to remove any remaining dirt.
5. Touch up minor paint damage
caused by stones, etc.
6. Wax all painted surfaces.
7. Let the scooter dry completely be-
fore storing or covering it.
EWA10941
WARNING
Contaminants on the brakes or tires
can cause loss of control.● ●● ●
●
Make sure that there is no oil or
wax on the brakes or tires. If nec-
essary, clean the brake discs and
brake linings with a regular brake
disc cleaner or acetone, and
wash the tires with warm waterand a mild detergent.
● ●● ●
●
Before operating the scooter test
its braking performance and cor-
nering behavior.
ECA10800
NOTICE● ●● ●
●
Apply spray oil and wax spar-
ingly and make sure to wipe off
any excess.
● ●● ●
●
Never apply oil or wax to any rub-
ber and plastic parts, but treat
them with a suitable care prod-
uct.
● ●● ●
●
Avoid using abrasive polishing
compounds as they will wear
away the paint.
TIP●
Consult a Yamaha dealer for advice
on what products to use.
●
Washing, rainy weather or humid
climates can cause the headlight
lens to fog. Turning the headlight onfor a short period of time will help
remove the moisture from the lens.
