BREAKING IN (RUNNING IN)
ENGINE
Your new engine requires a period of
break-in (running-in) to allow mating sur-
faces of moving parts to wear-in evenly.
Correct break-in (running-in) will help
ensure proper performance and longer
engine life.

Failure to follow the break-in (running-
in) procedure may result in reduced
engine life or even severe engine dam-
age.

Premix fuel must be used during break-
in (running-in) in addition to oil in the
Yamaha Autolube System.

After break-in (running-in), use gaso-
line(petrol) only. If premix fuel is used
continually, the oxygen sensor for Elec-
tronic Fuel Injection system could be
damaged.
