Be sure to completely insert the dipstick
into the dipstick guide, otherwise the oil

to be sure the level falls between the up-
per and lower marks. Consult your
Yamaha dealer if the oil level is out of
specified level.

low oil pressure-alert indicator remains
off. Also, make sure that there are no oil
leaks. NOTICE: If the low oil pressure-
alert indicator comes on or if there
are oil leaks, stop the engine and find
the cause. Continued operation with
a problem could cause severe engine
damage. Consult your Yamaha dealer
if the problem cannot be located and
corrected.
