3. “SET” button
The multi-function display is equip-
ped with the following:
an odometer (which shows the
total distance traveled)
two tripmeters (which show the
distance traveled since they were
last set to zero, the time passed
since the tripmeters were set to
zero, and the average speed tra-
veled during this time)
a fuel reserve tripmeter (which
shows the distance traveled sin-
ce the fuel level warning light
came on)
a clock
an ambient temperature display
a service indicator (which is dis-
played when periodic maintenan-
ce and lubrication is necessary)
NOTE:
For the UK, the distance traveled
is displayed in miles and the tem-
perature reading is displayed in
°F.
For other countries, the distance
traveled is displayed in kilome-
ters and the temperature reading
is displayed in °C.

WARNING
Since gasoline is flammable, the
following precautions must be
observed.
Stop the engine before refue-
ling.
Never attempt to refuel the
scooter while smoking or near
an open flame.
Take special care not to spill
gasoline over the engine or
muffler when refueling imme-
diately after operation.
Before starting the engine,
quickly wipe off any gasoline
spilled on the engine or muffler.

ECA11400
CAUTION:
Use only unleaded gasoline. The
use of leaded gasoline will cause
severe damage to internal engine
parts, such as the valves and piston
rings, as well as to the exhaust sys-
tem.
Your Yamaha engine has been desig-
ned to use regular unleaded gasoline
with a research octane number of 91
or higher. If knocking (or pinging)
occurs, use a gasoline of a different
brand or premium unleaded fuel. Use
of unleaded fuel will extend spark
plug life and reduce maintenance
costs.
EAU13431
Catalytic converter
This model is equipped with a cataly-
tic converter in the exhaust system.
EWA10860
s s
WARNING
The exhaust system is hot after
operation. Make sure that the
exhaust system has cooled down
before doing any maintenance
work.
ECA10700
CAUTION:
The following precautions must be
observed to prevent a fire hazard or
other damages.
Use only unleaded gasoline.
The use of leaded gasoline will
cause unrepairable damage to
the catalytic converter.
Never park the vehicle near
possible fire hazards such as
grass or other materials that
easily burn.
Do not allow the engine to idle
too long.
EAU13931

ment is properly seated in its
case.

The throttle cable free play should
measure 4 ~ 6 mm (0.16 ~ 0.24) at the
throttle grip. Periodically check the
throttle cable free play and, if neces-
sary, adjust it as follows.
NOTE:
The engine idling speed must be
correctly adjusted before checking
and adjusting the throttle cable free
play.
1. Remove cowling A (See page
6-6).2. Loosen the locknut.
3. To increase the throttle cable free
play, turn the adjusting nut in

when refilling. Water will signifi-
cantly lower the boiling point of
the fluid and may result in vapor
lock.
Brake fluid may deteriorate pain-
ted surfaces or plastic parts.
Always clean up spilled fluid
immediately.
As the brake pads wear, it is nor-
mal for the brake fluid level to
gradually go down. However, if
the brake fluid level goes down
suddenly, have a Yamaha dealer
check the cause.
EAUM1360
Changing the brake fluid
Have 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.
EAU23111
Checking and lubricating the
throttle grip and cable
The operation of the throttle grip
should be checked before each ride.
In addition, the cable should be lubri-
cated at the intervals specified in the
periodic maintenance chart.
