SAFETY INFORMATION

EAU10263

Be a Responsible Owner

As the vehicle’s owner, you are respon-

sible for the safe and proper operation

of your scooter.

Scooters are single-track vehicles.

Their safe use and operation are de-

pendent upon the use of proper riding

techniques as well as the expertise of

the operator. Every operator should

know the following requirements before

riding this scooter.

He or she should:

●

Obtain thorough instructions from

a competent source on all aspects

of scooter operation.

●

Observe the warnings and mainte-

nance requirements in this Own-

er’s Manual.

●

Obtain qualified training in safe

and proper riding techniques.

●

Obtain professional technical ser-

vice as indicated in this Owner’s

Manual and/or when made neces-

sary by mechanical conditions.

Safe Riding

Perform the pre-operation checks each

time you use the vehicle to make sure it

is in safe operating condition. Failure to

inspect or maintain the vehicle properly

increases the possibility of an accident

or equipment damage. See page 4-1

for a list of pre-operation checks.

●

This scooter is designed to carry

the operator and a passenger.

●

The failure of motorists to detect

and recognize scooters in traffic is

the predominating cause of auto-

mobile/scooter accidents. Many

accidents have been caused by an

automobile driver who did not see

the scooter. Making yourself con-

spicuous appears to be very effec-

tive in reducing the chance of this

type of accident.

Therefore:

●

Wear a brightly colored jacket.

●

Use extra caution when you are

approaching and passing

through intersections, since in-

tersections are the most likely

places for scooter accidents to

occur.

●

Ride where other motorists can

see you. Avoid riding in another

motorist’s blind spot.

●

Many accidents involve inexperi-

enced operators. In fact, many op-

erators who have been involved in

accidents do not even have a cur-

rent driver’s license.

●

Make sure that you are qualified

and that you only lend your

scooter to other qualified opera-

tors.

●

Know your skills and limits.

Staying within your limits may

help you to avoid an accident.

●

We recommend that you prac-

tice riding your scooter where

there is no traffic until you have

become thoroughly familiar with

the scooter and all of its con-

trols.

●

Many accidents have been caused

by error of the scooter operator. A

typical error made by the operator

is veering wide on a turn due to ex-

cessive speed or undercornering

(insufficient lean angle for the

speed).

1-2

SAFETY INFORMATION

●

Always obey the speed limit and

never travel faster than warrant-

ed by road and traffic conditions.

●

Always signal before turning or

changing lanes. Make sure that

other motorists can see you.

●

The posture of the operator and

passenger is important for proper

control.

●

The operator should keep both

hands on the handlebar and

both feet on the operator foot-

rests during operation to main-

tain control of the scooter.

●

The passenger should always

hold onto the operator, the seat

strap or grab bar, if equipped,

with both hands and keep both

feet on the passenger footrests.

Never carry a passenger unless

he or she can firmly place both

feet on the passenger footrests.

●

Never ride under the influence of

alcohol or other drugs.

●

This scooter is designed for

on-road use only. It is not suitable

for off-road use.

Protective apparel

The majority of fatalities from scooter

accidents are the result of head inju-

ries. The use of a safety helmet is the

single most critical factor in the preven-

tion or reduction of head injuries.

●

Always wear an approved helmet.

●

Wear a face shield or goggles.

Wind in your unprotected eyes

could contribute to an impairment

of vision that could delay seeing a

hazard.

●

The use of a jacket, substantial

shoes, trousers, gloves, etc., is ef-

fective in preventing or reducing

abrasions or lacerations.

●

Never wear loose-fitting clothes,

otherwise they could catch on the

control levers or wheels and cause

injury or an accident.

●

Always wear protective clothing

that covers your legs, ankles, and

feet. The engine or exhaust sys-

tem become very hot during or af-

ter operation and can cause burns.

●

A passenger should also observe

the above precautions.

Avoid Carbon Monoxide Poisoning

All engine exhaust contains carbon

monoxide, a deadly gas. Breathing car-

bon monoxide can cause headaches,

dizziness, drowsiness, nausea, confu-

sion, and eventually death.

Carbon Monoxide is a colorless, odor-

less, tasteless gas which may be

present even if you do not see or smell

any engine exhaust. Deadly levels of

carbon monoxide can collect rapidly

and you can quickly be overcome and

unable to save yourself. Also, deadly

levels of carbon monoxide can linger

for hours or days in enclosed or poorly

ventilated areas. If you experience any

symptoms of carbon monoxide poison-

ing, leave the area immediately, get

fresh air, and SEEK MEDICAL TREAT-

MENT.

●

Do not run engine indoors. Even if

you try to ventilate engine exhaust

with fans or open windows and

doors, carbon monoxide can rap-

idly reach dangerous levels.

●

Do not run engine in poorly venti-

lated or partially enclosed areas

such as barns, garages, or car-

1-3

SAFETY INFORMATION

ports.

●

Do not run engine outdoors where

engine exhaust can be drawn into

a building through openings such

as windows and doors.

Adding accessories or cargo to your

scooter can adversely affect stability

and handling if the weight distribution of

the scooter is changed. To avoid the

possibility of an accident, use extreme

caution when adding cargo or accesso-

ries to your scooter. Use extra care

when riding a scooter that has added

cargo or accessories. Here, along with

the information about accessories be-

low, are some general guidelines to fol-

low if loading cargo to your scooter:

The total weight of the operator, pas-

senger, accessories and cargo must

not exceed the maximum load limit.

Operation of an overloaded vehicle

could cause an accident.

When loading within this weight limit,

keep the following in mind:

●

Cargo and accessory weight

should be kept as low and close to

the scooter as possible. Securely

pack your heaviest items as close

to the center of the vehicle as pos-

sible and make sure to distribute

the weight as evenly as possible

on both sides of the scooter to min-

imize imbalance or instability.

●

Shifting weights can create a sud-

den imbalance. Make sure that ac-

cessories and cargo are securely

attached to the scooter before

riding. Check accessory mounts

and cargo restraints frequently.

●

Properly adjust the suspension

for your load (suspension-ad-

justable models only), and

check the condition and pres-

sure of your tires.

●

Never attach any large or heavy

items to the handlebar, front

fork, or front fender. Such items

can create unstable handling or

a slow steering response.

●

This vehicle is not designed to

pull a trailer or to be attached to

a sidecar.

Genuine Yamaha Accessories

Choosing accessories for your vehicle

is an important decision. Genuine

Yamaha accessories, which are avail-

able only from a Yamaha dealer, have

been designed, tested, and approved

by Yamaha for use on your vehicle.

Many companies with no connection to

Yamaha manufacture parts and acces-

sories or offer other modifications for

Yamaha vehicles. Yamaha is not in a

position to test the products that these

aftermarket companies produce.

Therefore, Yamaha can neither en-

dorse nor recommend the use of ac-

cessories not sold by Yamaha or

modifications not specifically recom-

mended by Yamaha, even if sold and

installed by a Yamaha dealer.

Aftermarket Parts, Accessories,

and Modifications

While you may find aftermarket prod-

ucts similar in design and quality to

genuine Yamaha accessories, recog-

nize that some aftermarket accessories

or modifications are not suitable be-

cause of potential safety hazards to you

or others. Installing aftermarket prod-
