INSTRUMENT AND CONTROL FUNCTIONS

EAU26890
Immobilizer system This vehicle is equipped with an immo-
bilizer system to help prevent theft by
re-registering codes in the standard
keys. This system consists of the fol-
lowing.

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 reg-
ister codes in each standard key. Since
re-registering is a difficult process, take
the vehicle along with all three keys to
a Yamaha dealer to have them re-reg-
istered. Do not use the key with the red
bow for driving. It should only be used
for re-registering the standard keys. Al-
ways use a standard key for driving.
CAUTION:
ECA11820


DO NOT LOSE THE CODE RE-
REGISTERING KEY! CONTACT
YOUR DEALER IMMEDIATELY
IF IT IS LOST! If the code re-reg-
istering key is lost, registering
new codes in the standard keys
is impossible. The standard
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 immobi-
lizer system must be replaced.
Therefore, it is highly recom-mended to use either standard
key and keep the code re-regis-
tering key in a safe place.


Do not submerse any key in wa-
ter.


Do not expose any key to exces-
sively 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 im-
mobilizer 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 signal inter-ference.
1. Code re-registering key (red bow)
2. Standard keys (black bow)

Push the key in, and then turn it to
“OFF” while still pushing it.
WARNING
EWA10060
Never turn the key to “OFF” or
“LOCK” while the vehicle is moving,
otherwise the electrical systems will
be switched off, which may result in
loss of control or an accident. Make
sure that the vehicle is stopped be-
fore turning the key to “OFF” or“LOCK”.
EAU33001
(Parking)
The steering is locked, and the taillight
and auxiliary light are on. The hazard
lights and turn signal lights can be
turned on, but all other electrical sys-
tems are off. The key can be removed.
The steering must be locked before the
key can be turned to “”.
CAUTION:
ECA11020
Do not use the parking position for
an extended length of time, other-wise the battery may discharge.

EAU11080
High beam indicator light “”
This indicator light comes on when the
high beam of the headlight is switched
on.
EAU11500
Engine trouble warning light “”
This warning light comes on or flashes
when an electrical circuit monitoring the
engine is defective. When this occurs,
have a Yamaha dealer check the self-
diagnosis system.
The electrical circuit of the warning light
can be checked by turning the key to
“ON”. If the warning light does not come
on for a few seconds, then go off, have
a Yamaha dealer check the electrical
circuit.
EAU38910
Immobilizer system indicator light
The electrical circuit of the indicator
light can be checked by turning the key
to “ON”.
If the indicator light does not come on
for a few seconds, then go off, have a
Yamaha dealer check the electrical cir-
cuit.When the key is turned to “OFF” and 30
seconds have passed, the indicator
light will start flashing indicating the im-
mobilizer system is enabled. After 24
hours have passed, the indicator light
will stop flashing, however the immobi-
lizer system is still enabled.
NOTE:This model is also equipped with a self-
diagnosis device for the immobilizer
system. If the immobilizer system is de-
fective, the indicator light will start flash-
ing a pattern when the key is turned to
“ON”. When this occurs, have a
Yamaha dealer check the self-diagno-
sis system. However, if the indicator
light slowly flashes five times, and then
quickly flashes two times repeatedly,
this error could be caused by signal in-
terference. If this occurs, try the follow-ing.
1. Use the code re-registering key to
start the engine.NOTE:Make sure there are no other immobi-
lizer keys close to the main switch, and
do not keep more than one immobilizerkey on the same key ring! Immobilizer
system keys may cause signal interfer-
ence, which may prevent the engine
from starting.
2. If the engine starts, turn it off, and
try starting the engine with the
standard keys.
3. If one or both of the standard keys
do not start the engine, take the
vehicle, the code re-registering
key and both standard keys to a
Yamaha dealer and have the stan-
dard keys re-registered.

sealed-type (MF) battery charg-
er, have a Yamaha dealercharge your battery.
