Gasoline and exhaust gas
●GASOLINE IS HIGHLY FLAMMA-
BLE:
• Always turn the engine off
when refueling.
• Take care not to spill any gaso-
line on the engine or exhaust
system when refueling.
• Never refuel while smoking or
in the vicinity of an open flame.
●Never start the engine or let it run
for any length of time in a closed
area. The exhaust fumes are poi-
sonous and may cause loss of
consciousness and death within
a short time. Always operate your
scooter in an area that has ade-
quate ventilation.
●Always turn the engine off before
leaving the scooter unattended
and remove the key from the
main switch. When parking the
scooter, note the following:
• The engine and exhaust sys-
tem may be hot, therefore,
park the scooter in a place
where pedestrians or children
are not likely to touch these hot
areas.• Do not park the scooter on a
slope or soft ground, otherwise
it may fall over.
• Do not park the scooter near a
flammable source (e.g., a kero-
sene heater, or near an open
flame), otherwise it could catch
fire.
●If you should swallow any gasoli-
ne, inhale a lot of gasoline vapor,
or allow gasoline to get into your
eyes, see your doctor immedia-
tely. If any gasoline spills on your
skin or clothing, immediately
wash the affected area with soap
and water and change your clot-
hes.
EAU10371
Further safe-riding points
●Be sure to signal clearly when
making turns.
●Braking can be extremely difficult
on a wet road. Avoid hard bra-
king, because the scooter could
slide. Apply the brakes slowly
when stopping on a wet surface.
●Slow down as you approach a
corner or turn. Once you have
completed 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 cons-
truction sites, and manhole
covers become extremely slip-
pery when wet. Slow down and
cross them with caution. Keep
the scooter upright, otherwise it
could slide out from under you.
●The brake pads could get wet
when you wash the scooter. After
washing the scooter, check the
brakes before riding.

WARNING
●Become thoroughly familiar
with all operating controls and
their functions before riding.
Consult a Yamaha dealer
regarding any control or func-
tion that you do not thoroughly
understand.
●Never start the engine or ope-
rate it in a closed area for any
length of time. Exhaust fumes
are poisonous, and inhaling
them can cause loss of cons-
ciousness and death within a
short time. Always make sure
that there is adequate ventila-
tion.
●For safety, always start the
engine with the centerstand
down.

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
kickstarter.
