EAU01144Wheel bearings
If there is play in the front or rear
wheel hub or if the wheel does not
turn smoothly, have a Yamaha dealer
inspect the wheel bearings.
EAU00800Battery
This motorcycle is equipped with a
sealed-type battery. Therefore it is
not necessary to check the elec-
trolyte or fill the battery with distilled
water.
8 8
If the battery seems to have dis-
charged, consult a Yamaha deal-
er.
8 8
If the motorcycle is equipped
with optional electrical acces-
sories, the battery tends to dis-
charge more quickly, so be sure
to recharge it periodically.
EC000101
cC
Never try to remove the sealing
caps of the battery cells. The bat-
tery will be damaged.
EW000116
w
Battery electrolyte is poisonous
and dangerous, causing severe
burns, etc. It contains sulfuric
acid. Avoid contact with skin, eyes
or clothing.
ANTIDOTE:
8 8
EXTERNAL: Flush with water.
8 8
INTERNAL: Drink large quanti-
ties of water or milk. Follow
with milk of magnesia, beaten
egg, or vegetable oil. Call a
physician immediately.
8 8
EYES: Flush with water for 15
minutes and get prompt med-
ical attention.
Batteries produce explosive
gases. Keep sparks, flame, ciga-
rettes etc., away. Ventilate when
charging or using in an enclosed
space. Always shield your eyes
when working near batteries.

Completely recharge the bat-
tery before storing. Storing a
discharged battery can cause
permanent battery damage.

Use a battery charger
designed for a sealed-type
(MF) battery. Using a conven-
tional battery charger will
cause battery damage. If you
do not have a sealed-type bat-
tery charger, contact your
Yamaha dealer.

Always make sure the connec-
tions are correct when rein-
stalling the battery.
