Be a Responsible Owner
As the vehicle’s owner, you are res­ponsible for the safe and proper ope­ration of your scooter. Scooters are single-track vehicles. Their safe use and operation are dependent 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:
G Obtain thorough instructions
from a competent source on all aspects of scooter operation.
G Observe the warnings and main-
tenance requirements in this Owner’s Manual.
G Obtain qualified training in safe
and proper riding techniques.
G Obtain professional technical
service as indicated in this Owner’s Manual and/or when made necessary 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.
G This scooter is designed to carry
the operator and a passenger.
G The failure of motorists to detect
and recognize scooters in traffic is the predominating cause of automobile/scooter accidents. Many accidents have been cau­sed by an automobile driver who did not see the scooter. Making yourself conspicuous appears to be very effective 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 intersections 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.
G Many accidents involve inexpe-
rienced operators. In fact, many operators who have been invol­ved in accidents do not even have a current driver’s license.
• Make sure that you are quali­fied and that you only lend your scooter to other qualified ope­rators.
• Know your skills and limits. Staying within your limits may help you to avoid an accident.
• We recommend that you prac­tice riding your scooter where there is no traffic until you have become thoroughly familiar with the scooter and all of its controls.
G Many accidents have been cau-
sed by error of the scooter ope­rator. A typical error made by the operator is veering wide on a turn due to excessive speed or under­cornering (insufficient lean angle for the speed).
1
1-1
SAFETY INFORMATION
• Always obey the speed limit and never travel faster than
1
warranted by road and traffic conditions.
• Always signal before turning or changing lanes. Make sure that other motorists can see you.
G 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 foo­trests during operation to maintain 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.
G Never ride under the influence of
alcohol or other drugs.
G 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 inju­ries. The use of a safety helmet is the single most critical factor in the pre­vention or reduction of head injuries.
G Always wear an approved hel-
met.
G Wear a face shield or goggles.
Wind in your unprotected eyes could contribute to an impair­ment of vision that could delay seeing a hazard.
G The use of a jacket, substantial
shoes, trousers, gloves, etc., is effective in preventing or redu­cing abrasions or lacerations.
G Never wear loose-fitting clothes,
otherwise they could catch on the control levers or wheels and cause injury or an accident.
G Always wear protective clothing
that covers your legs, ankles, and feet. The engine or exhaust sys­tem become very hot during or after operation and can cause burns.
G A passenger should also observe
the above precautions.
1-2
Avoid Carbon Monoxide Poisoning
All engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, a deadly gas. Breathing carbon monoxide can cause heada­ches, dizziness, drowsiness, nausea, confusion, and eventually death. Carbon Monoxide is a colorless, odorless, 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 poisoning, leave the area immediately, get fresh air, and SEEK MEDICAL TREATMENT.
G Do not run engine indoors. Even if
you try to ventilate engine exhaust with fans or open windows and doors, carbon monoxide can rapidly reach dangerous levels.
G Do not run engine in poorly venti-
lated or partially enclosed areas such as barns, garages, or car­ports.
SAFETY INFORMATION
G
Do not run engine outdoors whe­re engine exhaust can be drawn into a building through openings such as windows and doors.
Loading
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 accessories to your scooter. Use extra care when riding a scooter that has added cargo or accessories. Here, along with the information about accessories below, are some general guidelines to follow if loading cargo to your scooter: The total weight of the operator, pas­senger, accessories and cargo must not exceed the maximum load limit.
Operation of an overloaded vehicle could cause an accident.
Maximum load:
YP250R 175 kg (386 lb) YP250RA 171 kg (377 lb) YP250R Sport: 173.5 kg (383 lb)
When loading within this weight limit, keep the following in mind:
G 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 possible and make sure to dis­tribute the weight as evenly as possible on both sides of the scooter to minimize imbalance or instability.
G Shifting weights can create a
sudden imbalance. Make sure that accessories and cargo are securely attached to the scooter before riding. Check accessory mounts and cargo restraints fre­quently.
• Properly adjust the suspension for your load (suspension­adjustable models only), and check the condition and pres­sure 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.
G 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 avai­lable 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 accessories 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 endorse nor recommend the use of accessories not sold by Yamaha or modifications not specifically recom­mended by Yamaha, even if sold and installed by a Yamaha dealer.

WARNING
SAFETY INFORMATION
Aftermarket Parts, Accessories, and Modifications
While you may find aftermarket pro-
1
ducts similar in design and quality to genuine Yamaha accessories, recog­nize that some aftermarket accesso­ries or modifications are not suitable because of potential safety hazards to you or others. Installing aftermarket products or having other modifica­tions performed to your vehicle that change any of the vehicle’s design or operation characteristics can put you and others at greater risk of serious injury or death. You are responsible for injuries related to changes in the vehicle. Keep the following guidelines in mind, as well as those provided under “Loa­ding” when mounting accessories.
G Never install accessories or carry
cargo that would impair the per­formance of your scooter. Care­fully inspect the accessory befo­re using it to make sure that it does not in any way reduce ground clearance or cornering clearance, limit suspension tra­vel, steering travel or control ope-
ration, or obscure lights or reflec­tors.
• Accessories fitted to the hand­lebar or the front fork area can create instability due to impro­per weight distribution or aerodynamic changes. If accessories are added to the handlebar or front fork area, they must be as lightweight as possible and should be kept to a minimum.
• Bulky or large accessories may seriously affect the stability of the scooter due to aerodyna­mic effects. Wind may attempt to lift the scooter, or the scoo­ter may become unstable in cross winds. These accesso­ries may also cause instability when passing or being passed by large vehicles.
• Certain accessories can dis­place the operator from his or her normal riding position. This improper position limits the fre­edom of movement of the ope­rator and may limit control abi­lity, therefore, such acces-
1-4
sories are not recommended.
• Use caution when adding elec­trical accessories. If electrical accessories exceed the capa­city of the scooter’s electrical system, an electric failure could result, which could cau­se a dangerous loss of lights or engine power.
Aftermarket Tires and Rims
The tires and rims that came with your scooter were designed to match the performance capabilities and to pro­vide the best combination of hand­ling, braking, and comfort. Other tires, rims, sizes, and combinations may not be appropriate. Refer to page 6-18 for tire specifications and more information on replacing your tires.
EWA15470
Be sure to observe following ins­tructions before transporting the scooter in another vehicle.
G Remove all loose items from
the scooter.
SAFETY INFORMATION
G Point the front wheel straight
ahead on the trailer or in the truck bed, and choke it in a rail to prevent movement.
G Secure the scooter with tie-
downs or suitable straps that are attached to solid parts of the scooter, such as the frame or upper front fork triple clamp (and not, for example, to rub­ber-mounted handlebars or turn signals, or parts that could break). Choose the location for the straps carefully so the straps will not rub against painted surfaces during trans­port.
G The suspension should be
compressed somewhat by the tie-downs, if possible, so that the scooter will not bounce excessively during transport.
Further safe-riding points
G Be sure to signal clearly when
making turns.
G Braking can be extremely difficult
on a wet road. Avoid hard bra­king, because the scooter could slide. Apply the brakes slowly when stopping on a wet surface.
G Slow down as you approach a
corner or turn. Once you have completed a turn, accelerate slowly.
G Be careful when passing parked
cars. A driver might not see you and open a door in your path.
G Railroad crossings, streetcar
rails, iron plates on road cons­truction sites, and manhole covers become extremely slip­pery when wet. Slow down and cross them with caution. Keep the scooter upright, otherwise it could slide out from under you.
G The brake pads could get wet
when you wash the scooter. After washing the scooter, check the brakes before riding.
EAU10372
G Always wear a helmet, gloves,
trousers (tapered around the cuff and ankle so they do not flap), and a bright colored jacket.
G Do not carry too much luggage
on the scooter. An overloaded scooter is unstable. Use a strong cord to secure any luggage to the carrier (if equipped). A loose load will affect the stability of the sco­oter and could divert your atten­tion from the road. (See page 1-1).

Immobilizer system
1. Code re-registering key (red bow)
2. Standard keys (black bow)
This vehicle is equipped with an immobilizer system to help prevent theft by re-registering codes in the standard keys. This system consists of the following:
G a code re-registering key (with a
red bow)
G two standard keys (with a black
bow) that can be re-registered with new codes
G a transponder (which is installed
in the code re-registering key)
G an immobilizer unit G an ECU
G an immobilizer system indicator
light (See page 3-4). The key with the red bow is used to register codes in each standard key. Since re-registering is a difficult pro­cess, take the vehicle along with all three keys to a Yamaha dealer to have them re-registered. Do not use the key with the red bow for driving. It should only be used for re-registering the standard keys. Always use a stan­dard key for driving.
ECA11821
G DO NOT LOSE THE CODE RE-
REGISTERING KEY! CONTACT
YOUR DEALER IMMEDIATELY

When approximately 2.0 L (0.53 US gal, 0.44 Imp.gal) of fuel remains in the fuel tank, the bottom segment of the fuel meter and fuel level warning indicator will start flashing, and the display will automatically change to the fuel reserve tripmeter mode “Trip F” and start counting the distance tra­veled from that point. In that case, pushing the “SELECT” button swit­ches the display between the various tripmeter and odometer modes in the following order: Trip F/Trip (top) Trip (bottom)/Trip (top) Odo/Trip (top) Trip F/Trip (top)

1. Fuel reserve tripmeter
To reset a tripmeter, select it by pus­hing the “SELECT” button until “Trip” or “Trip F” begins flashing (“Trip” or “Trip F” will only flash for five seconds). While “Trip” or “Trip F” is flashing, push the “RESET” button for at least one second. If you do not reset the fuel reserve tripmeter
manually, it will reset itself automati­cally and the display will return to the prior mode after refueling and trave­ling 5 km (3 mi).
TIP
The display cannot be changed back to “Trip F” after pushing the “RESET” button.
Fuel meter
With the key in the “ON” position, the fuel meter indicates the amount of fuel in the fuel tank. The display seg­ments of the fuel meter disappear towards “E” (Empty) as the fuel level decreases. When the fuel level rea­ches the bottom segment near “E”, the fuel level warning indicator and the bottom segment will flash. Refuel as soon as possible.
Coolant temperature meter
With the key in the “ON” position, the coolant temperature meter indicates the temperature of the coolant. The coolant temperature varies with chan­ges in the weather and engine load. If

INSTRUMENT AND CONTROL FUNCTIONS
If the engine oil is changed before the oil change indicator comes on (i.e. before the periodic oil change interval has been reached), the indicator must be reset after the oil change for the next periodic oil change to be indica­ted at the correct time. (See page 6-10). The electrical circuit of the indicator can be checked according to the following procedure.
1. Turn the key to “ON”.
2. Check that the indicator comes
on for a few seconds and then goes off.
3. If the indicator does not come on,
have a Yamaha dealer check the electrical circuit.
V-belt replacement indicator “V­BELT”
This indicator flashes every 20000 km (12500 mi) when the V-belt needs to be replaced. The electrical circuit of the indicator can be checked according to the following procedure.
1. Turn the key to “ON”.
2. Check that the indicator comes on for a few seconds and then goes off.
3. If the indicator does not come on, have a Yamaha dealer check the electrical circuit.
Self-diagnosis device
This model is equipped with a self­diagnosis device for various electrical circuits. If a problem is detected in any of tho­se circuits, the multi-function display will indicate an error code. If the multi-function display indicates such an error code, note the code number, and then have a Yamaha dealer check the vehicle.
