WARNING

● Electrolyte is poisonous and

dangerous since it contains

sulfuric acid, which causes

severe burns. Avoid any con-

tact with skin, eyes or clothing

and always shield your eyes

when working near batteries.

In case of contact, administer

the following FIRST AID.

• EXTERNAL: Flush with plenty

of water.

• INTERNAL: Drink large quan-

tities of water or milk and

immediately call a physician.

• EYES: Flush with water for 15

minutes and seek prompt

medical attention.

• Batteries produce explosive

hydrogen gas. Therefore,

keep sparks, flames, cigaret-

tes, etc., away from the bat-

tery and provide sufficient

ventilation when charging it

in an enclosed space.

● KEEP THIS AND ALL BATTE-

RIES OUT OF THE REACH OF

CHILDREN.

To charge the battery

Have a Yamaha dealer charge the

battery 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.

To store the battery

1. If the vehicle will not be used for

more than one month, remove

the battery, fully charge it, and

then place it in a cool, dry place.
