3Included with the vehicle is one smart
key, two mechanical keys, and one
identification number card. The identi-
fication number can also be found on
the inside of the smart key itself.
If the vehicle battery is discharged, the
mechanical key can be used to open
the seat. Carry one mechanical key
in addition to the smart key.
If the smart key is lost or the smart key
battery has discharged, the identifica-
tion number can be used to operate
the vehicle in emergency mode. (See
page 7-38.) Write down the identifi-
cation number in case of emergen-
cy.
If the smart key is lost and the smart
key system identification number is un-
known, the entire smart key system will
need to be replaced at considerable
cost. Keep the identification number
card in a safe place.
NOTICE
ECA21573
The smart key has precision elec-
tronic components. Observe the fol-
lowing precautions to prevent
possible malfunction or damage.
Do not place or store the smart
key in a storage compartment.
The smart key may be damaged
from road vibrations or exces-
sive heat.
Do not drop, bend, or subject
the smart key to strong impacts.
Do not submerge the smart key
in water or other liquids.
Do not place heavy items or ex-
cessive stress on the smart key.Do not leave the smart key in a
place exposed to direct sun-
light, high temperature or high
humidity.
Do not grind or attempt to mod-
ify the smart key.
Keep the smart key away from
strong magnetic fields and
magnetic objects such as key
hold
ers, TVs, and computers.
Keep the smart key away from
electric medical equipment.
Do not allow oils, polishing
agents, fuel, or any strong
chemicals to come in contact
with the smart key. The smart
key body may become discol-
ored or cracked.
TIP
The smart key battery life is ap-
proximately two years, but this
may vary according to operating
conditions.
Replace the smart key battery
when the smart key system indi-
cator light flashes for 20 seconds
when the vehicle is turned on, or
when the smart key indicator light
does not come on when the smart
key button is pushed. (See page
3-6.) After changing the smart key
battery, if the smart key system
still does not operate, check the
vehicle battery and then have a
Yamaha dealer check the vehicle.
If the smart key continually re-
ceives radio waves, the smart key
battery will discharge quickly. (For
example, when placed in the vicin-
ity of electrical products such as
televisions, radios, or computers.)
