EAU03099
Further safe-riding pointsSafe-riding points8Be sure to signal clearly when making turns.
8Braking can be extremely difficult on a wet road. Avoid hard braking, because the scooter could
slide. Apply the brakes slowly when stopping on a wet surface.
8Slow down as you approach a corner or turn. Once you have completed a turn, accelerate slowly.
8Be careful when passing parked cars. A driver might not see you and open a door in your path.
8Railroad 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.
8The brake pads could get wet when you wash the scooter. After washing the scooter, check the
brakes before riding.
8Always wear a helmet, gloves, trousers (tapered around the cuff and ankle so they do not flap),
and a bright colored jacket.
8Do not carry too much luggage on the scooter. An overloaded scooter is unstable.

Oil change indicator lightThis indicator light comes on at the
initial 1,000 km, then at 5,000 km and
every 5,000 km thereafter to indicate
that the engine oil should be
changed.
After changing the engine oil, reset
the oil change indicator light. (See
page 6-15 for the resetting proce-
dure.)If the engine oil is changed before the
oil change indicator light comes on
(i.e. before the periodic oil change
interval has been reached), the indi-
cator light must be reset after the oil
change for the next periodic oil
change to be indicated at the correct
time. (See page 6-15 for the resetting
procedure.)
The electrical circuit of the indicator
light can be checked according to the
following procedure.
1. Set the engine stop switch to “#”
and turn the key to “ON”.
2. Check that the indicator comes
on for a few seconds and then
goes off.
3. If the indicator light does not
come on, have a Yamaha dealer
check the electrical circuit.
NOTE:
The oil change indicator light may
flash when the engine is revved with
the scooter on the centerstand, but
this does not indicate a malfunction.
