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. HE OR SHE SHOULD: 1. 2. 3. 4. OBTAIN THOROUGH INSTRUCTIONS FROM A COMPETENT SOURCE ON ALL ASPECTS OF MOTORCYCLE OPERATION. OBSERVE THE WARNINGS AND MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS IN THE OWNER’S MANU- AL. OBTAIN QUALIFIED TRAINING IN SAFE AND PROPER RIDING TECHNIQUES. OBTAIN PROFESSIONAL TECHNICAL SERVICE AS INDICATED BY THE OWNER'S MANUAL AND/OR WHEN MADE NECESSARY BY MECHANICAL CONDITIONS. Safe riding 1. Always make pre-operation checks. Careful checks may help prevent an accident. 2. This motorcycle is designed to carry the operator and a passenger. 3. The failure of motorists to detect and recognize motorcycles in traffic is the predominating cause of automobile/motorcycle accidents. Many accidents have been caused by an automobile driver who did not see the motorcycle. Making yourself conspicuous appears to be very effective in reducing the chance of this type of accident. Therefore: a. Wear a brightly colored jacket. b. Use exira caution when you approach and pass through intersections, since intersections are the most likely places for motorcycle accidents. с. Ride where dther motorists can see you. Avoid riding in another motorists “blind spot”. 1-1 N óN SAFETY INFORMATION Many accidents involve inexperienced operators. In fact, many operators who have been involved in accidents do not even have a current motorcycle license. a. Make sure you are qualified. Also, only lend your motorcycie to experienced operators. b. Know your skills and limits. Staying within your limits may help you to avoid an accident. c. We recommend that you practice riding your motorcycle where there is no traffic until you have become thoroughly familiar with your motorcycle and all of its controls. Many motorcycle accidents have been caused by motorcycle operator errors. 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). a. Always obey the speed limits and never travel faster than warranted by road and traffic condi- tions. b. Always signal before turning or changing lanes. Make sure other motorists see you. The operator's and passenger's posture are important for proper control. a. The operator should keep both hands on the handlebars and both feet on the operator footrests during operation to maintain control of the motorcycle. b. The passenger should always hold on to the operator, or the seat strap or grab bar if the motor- cycle is so equipped, with both hands and keep both feet on the passenger footrests. C. Never carry a passenger unless he or she can firmly place both feet on the passenger footrests. Never ride under the influence of alcohol or drugs. This motorcycle is designed for on-road use only. It is not suitable for off-road use. 1-2 /\ SAFETY INFORMATION Protective apparel The majority of fatalities from motorcycle 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. 1. Always wear an approved helmet. 2. Wear a face shield or goggles. Wind on your unprotected eyes could contribute to an impairment of vision which could delay seeing a hazard. 3. The use of heavy boots, jacket, trousers, gloves, etc. is effective in preventing or reducing abrasions or lacerations. 4. Never wear loose fitting clothing. It could catch on the control levers, footrests, or wheels and cause injury or accident. 5. Never touch the engine or exhaust system during or after operation. They become very hot and can cause burns. Always wear protective clothing that covers your legs, ankles, and feet. 6. A passenger should also observe the above precautions. Modification Modifications made to the motorcycle not approved by Yamaha, or the removai of original equipment, may render your motorcycle unsafe for use and may cause severe personal injury. Modifications may also make your motorcycle illegal to use. Loading and accessories Adding accessories or cargo to your motorcycle can adversely affect stability and handling if the weight distribution of the machine is changed. To avoid the possibility of an accident, extreme caution should be used if adding cargo or accessories to your motorcycle. Use extra care if riding a motorcycle which has added cargo or accessories. Here are some general guidelines to foliow if loading cargo or adding accessories to your motorcycle: 1-3 /N SAFETY INFORMATION Loading The total weight of the operator, passenger, accessories and cargo must not exceed the maximum load limit of 392 Ib. (178 kg). When loading within these weight limits, keep the following in mind: 1. Cargo and accessory weight should be kept as low and close to the motorcycle as possible. Be sure to distribute the weight as evenly as possible on both sides of the machine to minimize imbalance or instability. 2. Shifting weights can create a sudden imbalance. Make sure that accessories and cargo are securely attached to the motorcycle before riding. Recheck accessory mounts and cargo restraints frequently. 3. Never attach any large or heavy items to the handlebars, front forks, or front fender. These items, in- cluding such cargo as sleeping bags, duffle bags, or tents, can create unstable handling or slow steering response. Accessories Genuine Yamaha accessories have been specifically designed for use on this motorcycle. Since Yamaha cannot test all other accessories which may be available, you must personally be responsible for the proper selection, installation and use of non-Yamaha accessories. You should use extreme caution when selecting and installing any accessories. Keep in mind these guidelines for mounting accessories in addition to those provided under “LOADING”. 1. Never install accessories or carry cargo that would impair the performance of your motorcycle. Care- fully inspect the accessory before using it to make sure it does not in any way reduce ground clear- ance or cornering clearance, limit suspension travel, steering travel or control operation, or obscure lights or reflectors. MN SAFETY INFORMATION a. 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. b. Bulky or large accessories may seriously affect the stability of the motorcycle due to aerodynamic effects. Wind may attempt to lift the motorcycle, or the motorcycle may become unstable in cross winds. These accessories may also cause instability when being passed by or passing large ve- hicles. c. Certain accessories can displace the operator from his or her normal riding position. This improp- er position limits the freedom of movement of the operator and may limit control ability. Therefore such accessories are not recommended. 2. Caution must be used if adding electrical accessories. If these accessories exceed the capacity of the motorcycle’s electrical system, an electric failure could result, which could cause a dangerous loss of lights or engine power. Gasoline and exhaust gas 1. GASOLINE IS HIGHLY FLAMMABLE: a. Always turn off the engine when refueling. b. Take care not to spill any gasoline on the engine or exhaust system when refueling. c. Never refuel while smoking or in the vicinity of an open flame. 2. Never start the engine or let it run for any length of time in a closed area. The exhaust fumes are poi- sonous and may cause loss of consciousness and death within a short time. Always operate your motorcycle in an area that has adequate ventilation. 3. Always turn off the engine before leaving the motorcycle unattended and remove the ignition key. When parking the motorcycle, note the following: /N SAFETY INFORMATION a. The engine and exhaust system may be hot. Park the motorcycle in a place where pedestrians or children are not likely to touch these hot areas. b. Do not park the motorcycle on a slope or soft ground; the motorcycle may fall over. c. Do not park the motorcycle near a flammable source, e.g. a kerosene heater, or near an open flame. The motorcycle could catch fire. 4. When transporting the motorcycle in another vehicle, be sure it is kept upright and that the fuel cock is turned to “ON” or “RES” (for vacuum type) / “OFF” (for manual type). If it should lean over, gasoline may leak out of the carburetor or fuel tank. 5. If you should swallow any gasoline, inhale a lot of gasoline vapor, or allow gasoline to get in your eyes, see your doctor immediately. If any gasoline spills on your skin or clothing, immediately wash it off with soap and water and change your clothes. @\ SAFETY INFORMATION Location of the important labels Please read the following labels carefully before operating this motorcycle. 7 | - | O Li 0} co I 6 5 4 1-7 A SAFETY INFORMATION ifornia onl 4 1 | California only A WARNING EMISSION HOSE ROUTING This unit contains high pressure nitrogen gas. í Mishandling can cause explosion.

The motorcycie must not be ridden when the sidestand is down. The sidestand is located on the left side of the frame. (Refer to page 5-1 for an explanation of this system.) A WARNING This motorcycle must not be operat- ed with the sidestand in the down position. If the stand is not properly retracted, it could contact the ground and distract the operator, re- sulting in a possibie loss of control. Yamaha has designed into this motorcycie a lockout system to as- sist the operator in fulfiliing the re- sponsibility of retracting the sidestand. Please check carefully the operating instructions listed be- iow and if there is any indication of a malfunction, return the motorcycle to a Yamaha dealer immediately for repair.

(Refer to page 3-16.) 1. Turn the fuel cock to “ON”. 2. Turn the main switch to “ON” and the engine stop switch to “( Y”. If the fuel indicator light comes on, check the fuel level. If necessary, fill the tank with fuel. 3. Shift the transmission into neutral. NOTE: When the transmission is in neutral, the neutral indicator light should be on. If the light does not come on, ask a Yamaha dealer to inspect it. 4. Turn on the starter (choke) and completely close the throttle grip. 5. Start the engine by pushing the start switch. 5-2 NOTE: If the engine fails to start, release the start switch, wait a few seconds, then try again. Each attempt should be as short as possible to preserve the bat- tery. Do not crank the engine more than 10 seconds on any one attempt. OPERATION AND IMPORTANT RIDING POINTS 6. After starting the engine, move the starter (choke) back to the half- open position. NOTE: For maximum engine life, always warm up the engine before starting off. Never accelerate hard with a cold engine. 7. After warming up the engine, turn off the starter (choke) completely. The oil level indicator light and en- gine overheat indicator light should come on when the start switch is pushed and should go off when the start switch is released. If the oil lev- el indicator light flickers or remains on, immediately stop the engine and check the engine oil level and for oil ieakage. If necessary, fill the engine with oil and check to see that the oil ievel indicator light goes off. If not, consult a Yamaha dealer. 5-3 NOTE: The engine is warm when it responds normally to the throttie with the starter turned off. To avoid the possibility of excessive exhaust emissions, never leave the starter circuit on longer than necessary. The length of time the starter is needed depends upon the ambient temperature. Warm ambient temperatures (above 10 °C/50 °F) re- quire about 7 seconds of starter use. Cold ambient temperatures (below 10 °C/50 °F) require about 35 seconds with the starter fully open, then about 2.5 minutes with the starter in the half- open position. For maximum engine life, always warm up the engine before starting off. Never accelerate hard with a cold engine. OPERATION AND IMPORTANT RIDING POINTS er wh Foam Tw à # Starting a warm engine The starter (choke) is not required when the engine is warm. e Do not coast for long periods with the engine off, and do not tow the motorcycle a long dis- tance. Even with gears in neu- tral, the transmission is only properly lubricated when the engine is running. Inadequate lubrication may damage the transmission. e Always use the clutch when changing gears. The engine, transmission, and driveline are not designed to withstand the shock of forced shifting and can be damaged by shifting without using the clutch. prior to operating the motorcycle for the first time. Shifting The transmission lets you control the amount of power you have available at a given speed for starting, accelerating, climbing hills, etc. The use of the shift pedal is shown in the illustration. To shift into neutral, depress the shift pedal repeatedly until it reaches the end of its travel, then raise the pedal slightly. OPERATION AND IMPORTANT RIDING POINTS To start out and accelerate 1. 2. Pull the clutch lever to disengage the clutch. Shift into first gear. The neutral in- dicator light should go out. Open the throttle gradually, and at the same time, release the clutch lever slowly. At the recommended shift points shown in the table on page 5-6, close the throttle, and at the same time, quickly pull in the clutch le- ver. 5. 6. Shift into second gear. (Be careful not to shift into neutral.) Open the throttle part way and gradually release the clutch lever. Follow the same procedure when shifting to the next higher gear. Always shift gears at the recom- mended shift points. 5-5 . When the motorcycle To decelerate 1.

For this reason we ask that you carefully read the following materi- al. Because the engine is brand new, you must not put an excessive load on it for the first 600 mi (1,000 km). The various parts in the engine wear and polish themselves to the correct oper- ating clearances. During this period, prolonged full throttie operation, or any condition which might result in exces- sive heating of the engine, must be avoided. 5-6 0 ~ 90 mi (0 ~ 150 km) Avoid operation above 1/3 throttle. Stop the engine and let it cool for 5 to 10 minutes after every hour of opera- tion. Vary the speed of the motorcycle from time to time. Do not operate it at one set throttle position. 90 ~ 300 mi (150 ~ 500 km) Avoid prolonged operation above 1/2 throttie. Rev the motorcycle freely through the gears, but do not use full throttle at any time. 300 ~ 600 mi (500 ~ 1,000 km) Avoid cruising speeds in excess of 3/4 throttle. After 600 mi (1,000 km) of operation, be sure to replace the engine oil, oil filter and final gear oil. OPERATION AND IMPORTANT RIDING POINTS 600 mi (1,000 km) and beyond Avoid prolonged full-throttle operation. Vary speed occasionally. if any engine trouble should occur during the break-in period, consult a Yamaha dealer immediately. Parking When parking the motorcycle, stop the engine and remove the ignition key. Turn the fuel cock to “OFF” whenever stopping the engine. The exhaust system is hot. Park the motorcycle in a place where pedes- trians or children are not likely to touch the motorcycle. Do not park the motorcycle on a slope or soft ground; the motorcycle may over- turn. 5-7 Periodic maintenance ...................e.rerervvercereneneene.s 6-1 Tool Kit..................—..enoveconorrereriorereceneece eee 6-2 Periodic maintenance chart for emission control system ................e...eeeeeieeerereer ener 6-3 General maintenance and lubrication chart.......... 6-4 Spark plugs...................—ereeerverervereeniererrereneneneaee. 6-7 Canister (for California only)... 6-8 Engine Oil... en rare een anne nan ere 6-9 Final gear Olsen eee, 6-11 COoOlaNnt er eee 6-12 Carburetor adjustment............................eeererereas 6-13 Throttle cable free play inspection ...................... 6-13 Valve clearance adjustment.................e.e.em.eom 6-13 TIFES...........eceonererinnereneneneneneocareoereneneeaae e acenacemeno 6-14 Wheels.....................eavernacecarecoceneacarecacerieaare eee. 6-16 Accessories or replacement parts .................... 6-17 Clutch lever free play adjustment....................... 6-17 Front brake lever free play adjustment............... 6-18 Rear brake pedal height adjustment .................. 6-19 Brake light switch adjustment............................. 6-19 Checking the front and rear brake pads............. 6-20 Inspecting the brake fluid level............................ 6-21 Brake fluid replacement ........................e.vevvaceos 6-22 Brake and shift pedal lubrication ........................ 6-22 Brake and clutch lever lubrication ...................... 6-23 Sidestand lubrication....................e.....ee..e... 6-23 Front fork inspection...

Check the brake fluid level of the master cylinder and clutch release cylinder regularly and fill as required. = Replace the oil seals on the inner parts of the master cylinder, caliper cylinder and clutch release cylinder every two years. o Replace the brake and clutch hoses every four years or if cracked or damaged. 6-6 PERIODIC MAINTENANCE AND MINOR REPAIR ~ tT Spark plugs Removal 1. Remove the spark plug caps. 1. Spark plug wrench 2. Use the spark plug wrench in the tool kit to remove the spark plugs as shown. Inspection The spark plug is an important engine component and is easy to inspect. The condition of the spark plug can indicate the condition of the engine. Normally, all spark plugs from the same engine should have the same color on the white insulator around the center elec- trode. The ideal color at this point is a medium-to-light tan color for a motor- cycle that is being ridden normally. If one spark plug shows a distinctly differ- 6-7 ent color, there could be something wrong with the engine. Do not attempt to diagnose such problems yourself. In- stead, take the motorcycle to a Yamaha dealer. You should periodical- ly remove and inspect the spark plugs because heat and deposits will cause any spark plug to slowly break down and erode. If electrode erosion be- comes excessive, or if carbon and oth- er deposits are excessive, you should replace the spark plug with the speci- fied plug. Specified spark plug: DPR7EA-9/NGK or X22EPR-U9/DENSO PERIODIC MAINTENANCE AND MINOR REPAIR @ 4 a. Spark plug gap Installation 1. Measure the electrode gap with a wire thickness gauge and, if nec- essary, adjust the gap to specifica- tion. 3. Install the spark plug and tighten it to the specified torque. Tightening torque: Spark plug: 12.5 ft-lb (1.75 m-kg, 17.5 Nm) NOTE: | If a torque wrench is not available when you are installing a spark plug, a good estimate of the correct torque is 1/4 to 1/2 turn past finger tight. Have the spark plug tightened to the specified torque as soon as possible. Spark plug gap: 0.03 ~ 0.04 in (0.8 ~ 0.9 mm) 2. Clean the gasket surface. Wipe off any grime from the threads. 4. Install the spark plug caps. 6-8 To carburetor Y U 1 Canister (for California only) This model is equipped with a canister to prevent the discharging of fuel vapor into the atmosphere. Before using this motorcycle, be sure to check the fol- lowing: e Check each hose connection. e Check each hose and canister for cracks or damage.

Start the engine and warm it up for several minutes. While warming up, check for oil leakage. If oil leakage is found, stop the engine immediately and check for the cause. Final gear oil Check for oil leakage. If any leakage is found, take the motorcycle to a Yamaha dealer for repairs. NOTE: After the engine is started, the oil level indicator light should go off if the oil is at the specified level. If the indicator light flickers or re- mains on, immediately stop the en- gine and consult with a Yamaha dealer. 6-11 PERIODIC MAINTENANCE AND MINOR REPAIR Coolant 1. 2. Remove the reservoir tank cover by removing the screw. Check the coolant level in the res- ervoir tank when the engine is cold as the coolant level will vary with engine temperature. The coolant level should be between the maxi- mum and minimum marks. If the level is low, remove the rid- ers seat, open the reservoir tank cap and add coolant or distilled water to raise it to the specified level. (See page 3-10 for seat re- moval procedures.) 1. Reservoir tank 2. Maximum level mark 3. Minimum level mark 4. Install the reservoir tank cap and riders seat. 5. Place the reservoir tank cover in the original position and install the screw. Reservoir tank capacity: 0.89 US gt (0.74 Imp qt, 0.84 L) Hard water or salt water is harmful to the engine. You may use distilled water if you can’t get soft water. 6-12 1. Reservoir tank cap NOTE: e И water is added, have a Yamaha dealer check the antifreeze con- tent of the coolant as soon as pos- sible. ® Have a Yamaha dealer change the coolant every two years. ® The radiator fan operation is com- pletely automatic. It is switched on or off according to the coolant tem- perature in the radiator. Carburetor adjustment The carburetors are important parts of ine engine and emission control sys- teri. Adjusting should be left to a Yamaha dealer with the professional knowledge, specialized data and equipment to do so properly. a. Free play Throttle cable free play Inspection There should be a free play of 0.16 ~ 0.24 in (4 ~ 6 mm) at the throttle grip. If the free play is incorrect, ask a Yamaha dealer to make this adjustment. Valve clearance adjustment The correct valve clearance changes with use, resulting in improper fuel/air supply or engine noise. To prevent this, the valve clearance must be adjusted regularly. This adjustment however, should be left to a professional Yamaha service technician. PERIODIC MAINTENANCE AND MINOR REPAIR Tires To ensure maximum performance, long service and safe operation, note the following: Tire air pressure Always check and adjust the tire pres- sure before operating the motorcycle. Tire inflation pressure should be checked and adjusted when the temperature of the tire equals the ambient air temperature. Tire infla- tion pressure must be adjusted ac- cording to total weight of cargo, rider, passenger, and accessories (fairing, saddlebags, etc. if approved for this model), and vehicle speed. Maximum load* 392 Ib (178 kg) Cold tire pressure Front Rear 36 psi 36 psi о Pa 90 kg (198 1) | (2.50 kgf/cm?, | (2.50 kaf/omê, 250 kPa) 250 kPa) 36 psi 41 psi Eee №) load (2.50 kgt/em?, | (2.80 каст, 250 kPa) 280 kPa) * Load is the total weight of cargo, rider, passenger, and accessories. 6-14 Proper loading of your motorcycle is important for several characteris- tics of your motorcycle, such as handling, braking, performance and safety. Do not carry loosely packed items that can shift. Securely pack your heaviest items close to the center of the motorcycle, and dis- tribute the weight evenly from side to side. Properly adjust the suspen- sion for your load, and check the condition and pressure of your tires. NEVER OVERLOAD YOUR MOTOR- CYCLE. Make sure the total weight of the cargo, rider, passenger, and accessories (fairing, saddlebags, etc. if approved for this model) does not exceed the maximum load of the motorcycle. Operation of an over- loaded motorcycle could cause tire damage, an accident, or even injury. PERIODIC MAINTENANCE AND MINOR REPAIR Tire inspection Always check the tires before operating the motorcycle. If a tire tread shows crosswise lines (minimum tread depth), if the tire has a nail or glass fragments in it, or if the side wall is cracked, con- tact a Yamaha dealer immediately and have the tire replaced. Y FO) il A | 1. Sidewall 2. Wear indicator a. Tread depth Minimum tire tread 0.04 in (1.0 mm) depth (front and rear) It is dangerous to ride with a worn- out tire.

Use only a soft, clean cloth or sponge with mild detergent and water to clean plastic. If the windshield is scratched, use a quality plastic polishing com- pound after washing. Do not use any harsh chemical products on plastic parts. Be sure to avoid using cloths or sponges which have been In contact with strong or abrasive cleaning products, solvent or thinner, fuel (gasoline), rust re- movers or inhibitors, brake flu- id, antifreeze or electrolyte. Before cleaning the motorcycle: . Block off the end of the exhaust pipes to prevent water entry; a plastic bag and strong rubber band may be used. 7-1 b. Make sure the spark plugs and all filler caps are properly installed. 2. If the engine case is excessively greasy, apply Yamaha Mud and Grease Release or other quality degreaser with a paint brush. Do not apply degreaser to wheel ax- les. 3. Rinse the dirt and degreaser off with a garden hose. Use only enough pressure to do the job. Excessive hose pressure may cause water seepage and deterioration of wheel bearings, front fork, brakes, transmission seals and electrical parts. Many expensive repair bills have re- sulted from improper high pressure detergent applications such as those available in coin-operated car washers. 4. Once the majority of the dirt has been hosed off, wash all surfaces (except leather saddiebags) with warm water and mild, detergent- type soap. An old toothbrush or bottle brush is handy for hard-to- get-at places. . Rinse the motorcycle off immedi- ately with clean water and dry all surfaces with a chamois, clean towel, or soft absorbent ck th. . Clean the seat with Yarnaha Pro- tectant or an equivalent vinyl up- holstery cleaner to keep the cover pliable and glossy. CLEANING AND STORAGE 7. Windshield cleaning [XVZ13LT] Avoid using any alkaline or strong acid cleaner, gasoline, brake fluid, or any other solvent. Clean the windshield with a cloth or sponge dampened with a neutral deter- gent, and after cleaning, thorough- ly wash it off with water. For additional cleaning, use Yamaha Windshield Cleaner or other quali- ty cleaner. Some cleaning com- pounds for plastics may leave scratches on surfaces of the wind- shield. Before using them, make a test by polishing an area which does not affect your visibility. . Apply Yamaha Silicone Wax or other automotive-type wax on all painted and chrome-plated surfac- es. Avoid combination cleaner- waxes. Many contain abrasives which may mar the paint or protec- tive finish. When finished, start the engine and let it idle for several minutes. 7-2 CLEANING AND STORAGE / \ RE = o) A (ON = Storage Long term storage (60 days or more) of your motorcycie will require some pre- ventive procedures to guard against deterioration. After thoroughly cleaning the motorcycle, prepare for storage as follows: 1. Top off the fuel tank with fresh fuel and add one ounce of Yamaha Fuel Conditioner and Stabilizer or an equivalent stabilizer to each gallon of fuel. Run the engine for several minutes to insure the new- ly conditioned fuel enters the en- tire fuel system and carburetors. NOTE: Use of Yamaha Fuel Conditioner and Stabilizer eliminates the need to drain the fuel system. Consult your Yamaha dealer if the fuel system is to be drained instead. 2. Remove the spark plugs, pour about one tablespoon of SAE 10W30 or 20W40 motor oil in each spark plug hole and reinstall the spark plugs. Turn the engine over several times (ground the spark plug leads) to coat the cylinder walls with oil. When using the starter motor to crank the engine, remove the spark plug wires, and ground them to pre- vent sparking. 7-3 3. Lubricate all control cables. NOTE: Use a Yamaha Power Cable Luber and Yamaha Lube Zall or equivalent to pressure lubricate the cables and purge out any moisture between the in- ner and outer cables. 4. Block up the frame to raise both wheels off the ground. 5. Tie a plastic bag over the exhaust pipe outlets to prevent moisture from entering. 6. If storing in a humid or salt-air at- mosphere, coat all exposed metal surfaces with a light film of oil. Do not apply oil to any rubber parts or the seat cover. CLEANING AND STORAGE 7. Remove the battery and fully charge it. Store it in a cool, dry place and recharge it once a month. Do not store the battery in an excessively warm or cold place [ less than 0 °C (30 °F) or more than 30 °C (90 °F) ]. See page 6- 25 for battery storage precautions.
