NOTICE
ECA22960
Use only the specified genuine
YAMAHA battery. Using a different
battery may cause the IMU to fail and
the engine to stall.
The battery is located under the rider
seat. (See page 4-34.)
NOTICE
ECA22970
The IMU is located under the battery.
It is not user serviceable and very
sensitive, so we advise against re-
moving the battery box or handling
the IMU directly.
Do not remove, modify, or place
any foreign materials in or
around the battery box.
Do not subject the IMU to strong
shocks and be careful when
handling the battery.
Do not obstruct the IMU breath-
er hole and do not clean it with
compressed air.
This model is equipped with a VRLA
(Valve Regulated Lead Acid) battery.
There is no need to check the electro-
lyte or to add distilled water. However,
the battery lead connections need to be
checked and, if necessary, tightened.
WARNING
EWA10761
Electrolyte is poisonous and
dangerous since it contains sul-
furic acid, which causes severe
burns. Avoid any contact with
skin, eyes or clothing and al-
ways shield your eyes when
working near batteries. In case
of contact, administer the fol-
lowing FIRST AID.
• EXTERNAL: Flush with plenty
of water.
• INTERNAL: Drink large quan-
tities of water or milk and im-
mediately call a physician.
• EYES: Flush with water for 15
minutes and seek prompt
medical attention.
Batteries produce explosive hy-
drogen gas. Therefore, keep
sparks, flames, cigarettes, etc.,
away from the battery and pro-
vide sufficient ventilation when
charging it in an enclosed
space.
KEEP THIS AND ALL BATTER-
IES OUT OF THE REACH OF
CHILDREN.
To charge the battery
Have a Yamaha dealer charge the bat-
tery as soon as possible if it seems to
have discharged. Keep in mind that the
battery tends to discharge more quickly
if the vehicle is equipped with optional
electrical accessories.
