fuel reserve 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 1
→
TRIP 2
→
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 reset
itself automatically and the display will
return to the prior mode after refueling
and traveling 5 km (3 mi).
NOTE:

The display cannot be changed back to
“TRIP F” after pushing the “RESET”
button.
Fuel gauge
The fuel gauge indicates the amount of
fuel in the fuel tank. The display seg-
ments of the fuel gauge disappear to-
wards “E” (Empty) as the fuel level
decreases. When only one segment is
left near “E”, the fuel level warning indi-cator and the last fuel gauge segment
will flash. Refuel as soon as possible.
Self-diagnosis device
This model is equipped with a self-diag-
nosis device for various electrical cir-
cuits.
If any of those circuits are defective, the
odometer/tripmeter will indicate a
two-digit error code (e.g., 11, 12, 13).
If the odometer/tripmeter indicates
such an error code, note the code num-
ber, and then have a Yamaha dealer
check the vehicle.
CAUTION:

ECA11520
If the odometer/tripmeter indicates
an error code, the vehicle should be
checked as soon as possible in or-
der to avoid engine damage.
