Multi-function display
WARNING
EWA12311
Be sure to stop the vehicle before
making any setting changes to the
multi-function display.
The multi-function display is equipped
with the following:
a fuel meter
a coolant temperature meter
an odometer (which shows the to-
tal distance traveled)
two tripmeters (which show the
distance traveled since they were
last set to zero)
a fuel reserve tripmeter (which
shows the distance traveled since
the bottom segment of the fuel
meter and fuel level warning sym-bol started flashing)
a self-diagnosis device
a clock
an ambient temperature display
an oil change indicator
a V-belt replacement indicator
NOTE:
Be sure to turn the key to “ON” be-
fore using the “SELECT” and “RE-
SET” buttons.
When the key is turned to “ON”, all
of the display segments of the
multi-function display will appear
one after the other and then disap-
pear, in order to test the electrical
circuit.
Odometer and tripmeter modes
Pushing the “SELECT” button switches
the display between the odometer
mode “ODO” and the tripmeter modes
“TRIP” in the following order:
ODO
→
TRIP (top)
→
TRIP (bottom)
→

fuel meter and fuel level warning sym-
bol will start flashing, and the display
will automatically change to the fuel re-
serve tripmeter mode “TRIP F” and
start counting the distance traveled
from that point. In that case, pushing
the “SELECT” button switches the dis-
play between the various tripmeter and
odometer modes in the following order:
TRIP F
→
TRIP (top)
→
TRIP (bottom)
→
ODO
→
TRIP F
To reset a tripmeter, select it by push-
ing the “SELECT” button, and then
push the “RESET” button for at least
one second. If you do not reset the fuel
reserve tripmeter manually, it will resetitself automatically and the display will
return to the prior mode after refueling
and traveling 5 km (3 mi).
Fuel meter
With the key in the “ON” position, the
fuel meter indicates the amount of fuel
in the fuel tank. The display segments
of the fuel meter disappear towards “E”
(Empty) as the fuel level decreases.
When the fuel level reaches the bottom
segment is left near “E”, the fuel level
warning symbol and the bottom seg-
ment will flash. Refuel as soon as pos-
sible.
Coolant temperature meter
With the key in the “ON” position, the
coolant temperature meter indicates
the temperature of the coolant. The
coolant temperature varies with chang-
es in the weather and engine load. If
the top segment and coolant tempera-
ture symbol flash, stop the vehicle and
let the engine cool. (See page 6-37.)
CAUTION:
ECA10020
Do not operate the engine if it is
overheated.
Oil change indicator “OIL”
This indicator flashes at the initial
1000 km (600 mi), then at 5000 km
(3000 mi) and every 5000 km (3000
mi) thereafter to indicate that the en-
gine oil should be changed.
After changing the engine oil, reset the
oil change indicator. (See page 6-12.)
If the engine oil is changed before the
oil change indicator comes on (i.e. be-
fore the periodic oil change interval has
been reached), the indicator must be
reset after the oil change for the next

WARNING
EWA11310
Make sure that no foreign mate-
rial enters the final transmission
case.
Make sure that no oil gets on the
tire or wheel.
7. Check the final transmission case
for oil leakage. If oil is leaking,
check for the cause.
EAU20070
Coolant
The coolant level should be checked
before each ride. In addition, the cool-
ant must be changed at the intervals
specified in the periodic maintenance
and lubrication chart.
EAU34191
To check the coolant level
1. Place the vehicle on a level sur-
face and hold it in an upright posi-
tion.
NOTE:
The coolant level must be checked
on a cold engine since the level
varies with engine temperature.
Make sure that the vehicle is posi-
tioned straight up when checking
the coolant level. A slight tilt to the
side can result in a false reading.
2. Pull up the right floorboard mat as
shown.3. Remove the coolant reservoir cov-
er by removing the screw.
4. Check the coolant level in the cool-
ant reservoir. Recommended final transmis-
sion oil:
See page 8-1.

(0.22 Imp.qt)

NOTE:
The coolant should be between the
minimum and maximum level marks.
5. If the coolant is at or below the
minimum level mark, open the
coolant reservoir cap, add coolant
to the maximum level mark, and
then close the coolant reservoir
cap.
CAUTION:
ECA10470
If coolant is not available, use
distilled water or soft tap water
instead. Do not use hard water
or salt water since it is harmful
to the engine.
If water has been used instead
of coolant, replace it with cool-
ant as soon as possible, other-
wise the engine may not be
sufficiently cooled and the cool-
ing system will not be protected
against frost and corrosion.
If water has been added to the
coolant, have a Yamaha dealer
check the antifreeze content of
the coolant as soon as possible,
otherwise the effectiveness of
the coolant will be reduced.
WARNING
EWA10380
Never attempt to remove the radiator
cap when the engine is hot.
6. Install the coolant reservoir cover
by installing the screw.
7. Place the right floorboard mat in
the original position.
NOTE:
The radiator fan is automatically
switched on or off according to the
coolant temperature in the radia-
tor.
If the engine overheats, see page
6-37 for further instructions.
