Fuel and 2-stroke engine oil
tank capsThe fuel tank cap and the 2-stroke en-
gine oil tank cap are located under the
seat. (See page 3-8.)
Fuel tank cap
To remove the fuel tank cap, turn it
counterclockwise, and then pull it off.
To install the fuel tank cap, turn it
clockwise.
2-stroke engine oil tank cap
To remove the 2-stroke engine oil tank
cap, pull it off.To install the 2-stroke engine oil tank
cap, push it into the oil tank opening.
WARNING
EWA10142
Make sure that the fuel and 2-stroke
engine oil tank caps are properly in-
stalled before riding the scooter.
Leaking fuel is a fire hazard.
EAU13213
FuelMake sure there is sufficient gasoline in
the tank.
WARNING
EWA10882
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 en-
gine and be sure that no one is sit-
ting on the vehicle. Never refuel
while smoking, or while in the vi-
cinity 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.

6 Insufficient brake fluid may al-
low air to enter the brake sys-
tem, reducing braking
performance.
Clean the filler cap before re-
moving. Use only DOT 3 or DOT
4 brake fluid from a sealed con-
tainer.
Use only the specified brake flu-
id; otherwise, the rubber seals
may deteriorate, causing leak-
age.
Refill with the same type of
brake fluid. Adding a brake fluid
other than DOT 3 or DOT 4 may
result in a harmful chemical re-
action.
Be careful that water does not
enter the brake fluid reservoir
when refilling. Water will signifi-
cantly lower the boiling point of
the fluid and may result in vapor
lock.
NOTICE
ECA17641
Brake fluid may damage painted
surfaces or plastic parts. Always
clean up spilled fluid immediately.
As the brake pads wear, it is normal for
the brake fluid level to gradually go
down. A low brake fluid level may indi-
cate worn brake pads and/or brake
system leakage; therefore, be sure to
check the brake pads for wear and the
brake system for leakage. If the brake
fluid level goes down suddenly, have a
Yamaha dealer check the cause before
further riding.
EAUM1361
Changing the brake fluidHave a Yamaha dealer change the
brake fluid at the intervals specified in
the periodic maintenance and lubrica-
tion chart. In addition, have the brake
hose replaced every four years or
whenever it is damaged or leaking.

lows.
1. Turn the key to “ ” and turn off all
electrical circuits.
2. Remove the blown fuse, and then
install a new fuse of the specified
amperage. WARNING! Do not
use a fuse of a higher amperage
rating than recommended to
avoid causing extensive dam-
age to the electrical system and
possibly a fire.
[EWA15132]
3. Turn the key to “ ” and turn on
the electrical circuits to check if
the devices operate.
4. If the fuse immediately blows
again, have a Yamaha dealer
check the electrical system.
