EAU26890
Immobilizer system
This vehicle is equipped with an
immobilizer system to help prevent
theft by re-registering codes in the
standard keys. This system consists
of the following.
a code re-registering key (with a
red bow)
two standard keys (with a black
bow) that can be re-registered
with new codes
a transponder (which is installed
in the code re-registering key)
an immobilizer unit
the ignitor unit
an immobilizer system indicator
light (See page 3-3.)
The key with the red bow is used to
register codes in each standard key.
Since re-registering is a difficult pro-
cess, take the vehicle along with all
three keys to a Yamaha dealer to have
them re-registered. Do not use the
key with the red bow for driving. It
should only be used for re-registering
the standard keys. Always use a stan-
dard key for driving.
ECA11820
CAUTION
DO NOT LOSE THE CODE RE-
REGISTERING KEY! CONTACT
YOUR DEALER IMMEDIATELY
IF IT IS LOST! If the code re-
registering key is lost, registe-
ring new codes in the standard
keys is impossible. The stan-
dard keys can still be used to
start the vehicle, however if
code re-registering is required
(i.e., if a new standard key is
made or all keys are lost) the
entire immobilizer system must
be replaced. Therefore, it is
highly recommended to use
either standard key and keep
the code re-registering key in a
safe place.
Do not submerse any key in
water.
Do not expose any key to
excessively high temperatures.
Do not place any key close to
magnets (this includes, but not
limited to, products such as
speakers, etc.).
Do not place heavy items on
any key.
Do not grind any key or alter its
shape.
Do not disassemble the plastic
part of any key.
Do not put two keys of any
immobilizer system on the
same key ring.
Keep the standard keys as well
as keys of other immobilizer
systems away from this vehi-
cle’s code re-registering key.
Keep other immobilizer system
keys away from the main
switch as they may cause sig-
nal interference.
EAU10471
Main switch/steering lock
The main switch/steering lock con-
trols the ignition and lighting systems,

NOTE:
Be sure to use the standard key
(black bow) for regular use of the
vehicle. To minimize the risk of losing
the code re-registering key (red bow),
keep it in a safe place and only use it
for code re-registering.

Coolant temperature gauge
1. Temperature gauge
With the key in the “ON” position, the
coolant temperature gauge indicates
the temperature of the coolant. The
coolant temperature varies with chan-
ges in the weather and engine load. If
the needle reaches or enters the red
zone, stop the vehicle and let the
engine cool. (See page 6-25.)

Multi-function display
1. “MODE” button
2. Multi-function display
3. “SET” button
The multi-function display is equip-
ped with the following:
an odometer (which shows the
total distance traveled)
two tripmeters (which show the
distance traveled since they were
last set to zero, the time passed
since the tripmeters were set to
zero, and the average speed tra-
veled during this time)
a fuel reserve tripmeter (which
shows the distance traveled sin-
ce the fuel level warning light
came on)
a clock
an ambient temperature display
a service indicator (which is dis-
played when periodic maintenan-
ce and lubrication is necessary)
NOTE:
For the UK, the distance traveled
is displayed in miles and the tem-
perature reading is displayed in
°F.
For other countries, the distance
traveled is displayed in kilome-
ters and the temperature reading
is displayed in °C.
