WARNING
Gasoline is poisonous and can
cause injury or death. Handle gaso-
line with care. Never siphon gaso-
line by mouth. If you should swallow
some gasoline or inhale a lot of gas-
oline vapor, or get some gasoline in
your eyes, see your doctor immedi-
ately. If gasoline spills on your skin,
wash with soap and water. If gaso-
line spills on your clothing, change
your clothes.
Recommended fuel:
PREMIUM UNLEADED GASOLINE
ONLY
Fuel tank capacity:
WR25XZ 7.6 L (2.01 US gal,
1.67 Imp.gal)
WR25XZC 7.2 L (1.90 US gal,
1.58 Imp.gal)
Fuel reserve amount (when the fuel
level warning light comes on):

NOTICE
Use only unleaded gasoline. The use
EWA15151
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 premium unleaded gaso-
line with a pump octane number
[(R+M)/2] of 91 or higher, or a research
octane number of 95 or higher. If
knocking (or pinging) occurs, use a
gasoline of a different brand. Use of un-
leaded fuel will extend spark plug life
and reduce maintenance costs.
Gasohol
EAU13381
There are two types of gasohol: gaso-
hol containing ethanol and that contain-
ing methanol. Gasohol containing
ethanol can be used if the ethanol con-
tent does not exceed 10% (E10). Gas-
ohol
recommended by Yamaha because it
can cause damage to the fuel system
or vehicle performance problems.
