Operation and important rid ing points

EAU16842
En gine break-in
There is never a more important period
in the life of your engine than the period
between 0 and 1600 km (1000 mi). For
this reason, you should read the fol-
lowing material carefully.
Since the engine is brand new, do not
put an excessive load on it for the first
1600 km (1000 mi). The various parts in
the engine wear and polish themselves
to the correct operating clearances.
During this period, prolonged full-throt-
tle operation or any condition that
might result in engine overheating
must be avoided.
EAU34323
0–1000 km (0–600 mi)
Avoid prolonged operation above 4500
r/min. NOTICE: After 1000 km (600
mi) of operation, be sure to replace
the en gine oil, final transmission oil
an d the oil filter element.
[ECA12932]
1000–1600 km (600–1000 mi)
Avoid prolonged operation above 5400
r/min.
1600 km (1000 mi) an d b eyon d
The vehicle can now be operated nor-
mally.
NOTICE
ECA10311
z Keep the en gine spee d out of
the tachometer red zone.
z If any en gine trou ble shoul d oc-
cur during the en gine break-in
period , imme diately have a
Yamaha dealer check the vehi-
cle.
EAUN1421
Parkin g
When parking, turn the vehicle power
off, and then turn the smart key off.
TIP
Even when the vehicle is parked in a lo-
cation partitioned by a fence or the
glass window of a shop, if the smart
key is within operating range, other
people will be able to start the engine
and operate the vehicle. Please turn
the smart key off when leaving the ve-
hicle. (See page 3-5.)
If the sidestand is lowered when the
engine is running, the engine will stop
and the beeper will sound for approxi-
mately 1 minute. To stop the beeper,
turn the vehicle power off or raise the
sidestand.
TIP
zBefore leaving the vehicle, be sure
to turn the main switch to “OFF”
or “ ”. Otherwise, the battery may
discharge.
z The sidestand alarm beeper can
be set to not activate. Please con-
tact your Yamaha dealer.
WARNING
EWA10312
zSince the en gine an d exhaust
system can become very hot,
park in a place where ped estri-
ans or chil dren are not likely to
touch them and b e burne d.
z Do not park on a slope or on soft
groun d, otherwise the vehicle
may overturn, increasin g the
risk of a fuel leak an d fire.

TIP
z Engine air filter and V-belt air filter
• This model’s engine air filter is equipped with a disposable oil-coated pa- per element, which must not be cleaned with compressed air to avoid
damaging it.
• The engine air filter element and sub air filter element need to be replaced and the V-belt air filter element needs to be serviced more frequently when
riding in unusually wet or dusty areas.
z Hydraulic brake service
• After disassembling the brake master cylinders and calipers, always chan- ge the fluid. Regularly check the brake fluid levels and fill the reservoirs as
required.
• Every two years replace the internal components of the brake master cyl- inders and calipers, and change the brake fluid.
• Replace the brake hoses every four years and if cracked or damaged.

Engine oil an d oil filter ele-
ment
The engine oil level should be checked
before each ride. In addition, the oil
must be changed and the oil filter ele-
ment replaced at the intervals specified
in the periodic maintenance and lubri-
cation chart.
To check the en gine oil level
1. Place the vehicle on a level surfa- ce and hold it in an upright posi-
tion. A slight tilt to the side can
result in a false reading.
2. Start the engine, warm it up for several minutes, and then turn it
off.
3. Wait a few minutes until the oil set- tles, and then check the oil level
through the check window locat-
ed at the bottom-right side of the
crankcase.
TIP
The engine oil should be between the
minimum and maximum level marks.

4. If the engine oil is below the mini-
mum level mark, add sufficient oil
of the recommended type to raise
it to the correct level.
To chan ge the en gine oil (with or
without oil filter element replace-
ment) 1. Start the engine, warm it up for several minutes, and then turn it
off.
2. Place an oil pan under the engine to collect the used oil.
3. Remove the engine oil filler cap and its O-ring, and then remove
the engine oil drain bolt and its
gasket to drain the oil from the
crankcase.
4. Check the O-ring for damage, and replace it if necessary.
TIP
Skip steps 5–7 if the oil filter element is
not being replaced.
5. Remove the oil filter element coverby removing the bolts.
6. Remove and replace the oil filter element and O-ring.
