Your Yamaha engine has been de-
signed to use premium unleaded gaso-

spark plug life and reduce maintenance
costs.

The exhaust system is hot after op-
eration. To prevent a fire hazard or
burns:
● Do not park the vehicle near
possible fire hazards such as
grass or other materials that
easily burn.
● Park the vehicle in a place
where pedestrians or children
are not likely to touch the hot
exhaust system.
● Make sure that the exhaust sys-
tem has cooled down before do-
ing any maintenance work.
● Do not allow the engine to idle
more than a few minutes. Long
idling can cause a build-up of
heat.
