To install the 2-stroke engine oil tank
cap, push it into the oil tank opening.
EWA10141
sWARNING
Make sure that the fuel and 2-stro-
ke engine oil tank caps are properly
installed before riding the scooter.
Leaking fuel is a fire hazard.
EAU13212
Fuel
Make sure there is sufficient gasoline
in the tank.
EWA10881
sWARNING
Gasoline and gasoline vapors are
extremely flammable. To avoid fires
and explosions and to reduce the
risk of injury when refueling, follow
these instructions.
1. Before refueling, turn off the engi-
ne and be sure that no one is sit-
ting on the vehicle. 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 dryers.
2. Do not overfill the fuel tank. Stop
filling 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.
1. Fuel tank filler tube
2. Fuel level
3. Wipe up any spilled fuel imme-
diately. NOTICE: Immediately
wipe off spilled fuel with a cle-
an, dry, soft cloth, since fuel
may deteriorate painted surfa-
ces or plastic parts.
[ECA10071]
4. Be sure to securely close the fuel
tank cap.
EWA15151
sWARNING
Gasoline is poisonous and can cau-
se injury or death. Handle gasoline
with care. Never siphon gasoline by
mouth. If you should swallow some
gasoline or inhale a lot of gasoline

Starting a cold engineECA10250
NOTICE
See page 5-4 for engine break-in
instructions prior to operating the
vehicle for the first time.
1. Turn the key to “ ”, and when
the oil level warning light comes
on, turn it to “ ”.
ECA10240
NOTICE
If the oil level warning light does
not come on, have a Yamaha dealer
check the electrical circuit.
2. Close the throttle completely.3. While applying the front or rear
brake, start the engine by pus-
hing the start switch or by pus-
hing the kickstarter lever down.
NOTICE: For maximum engine
life, never accelerate hard
when the engine is cold!
[ECA11041]
If the engine fails to start by pus-
hing the start switch, release the
switch, wait a few seconds, 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 kickstarter.

TIP
●The air filter needs more frequent service if you are riding in unusually wet or dusty areas.
●Hydraulic brake service
• Regularly check and, if necessary, correct the brake fluid level.
• Every two years change the brake fluid.
• Replace the brake hoses every four years and if cracked or damaged.

6. Refill with the specified amount
of the recommended final trans-
mission oil, and then install and
tighten the oil filler cap. WAR-
NING! Make sure that no
foreign material enters the final
transmission case. Make sure
that no oil gets on the tire or
wheel.
[EWA11311]
7. Check the final transmission case
for oil leakage. If oil is leaking,
check for the cause.
EAUS1200
Coolant (CS50Z)
The coolant level should be checked
before each ride. In addition, the coo-
lant must be changed at the intervals
specified in the periodic maintenance
and lubrication chart.
EAUM2102
To check the coolant level
1. Place the vehicle on a level surfa-
ce and hold it in an upright posi-
tion.
TIP
●The coolant level must be chec-
ked on a cold engine since the
level varies with engine tempera-
ture.
●Make sure that the vehicle is
positioned straight up when
checking the coolant level. A
slight tilt to the side can result in
a false reading.
2. Check the coolant level through
the check window.
TIP
The coolant should be between the
minimum and maximum level marks.
1. Coolant level check window
2. Maximum level mark
3. Minimum level mark
3. If the coolant is at or below the
minimum level mark, remove the
cowling A. (See page 6-5).
4. Open the reservoir cap, and then
add coolant to the maximum
level mark. WARNING! Remove
only the coolant reservoir cap.
Never attempt to remove the
radiator cap when the engine is
hot.
[EWA15161]. NOTICE: If coolant
is not available, use distilled
