NOTICE
Use only unleaded gasoline. The use
of leaded gasoline will cause severe
damage to internal engine parts, such
as the valves and piston rings, as well
as to the exhaust system.
Your Yamaha engine has been de-
signed to use unleaded gasoline with
a pump octane number [(R+M)/2] of
86 or higher, or a research octane
number of 91 or higher. If knocking (or
pinging) occurs, use a gasoline of a
different brand or premium unleaded
fuel. Use of unleaded fuel will extend
spark plug life and reduce mainte-
nance costs.

NOTICE: Immedi-
