Multi-function display
WARNING
EWA12311
Be sure to stop the vehicle before
making any setting changes to themulti-function display.
The multi-function display is equipped
with the following:

a speedometer (which shows the
riding speed)


two tachometers, one LCD and
one digital (which show engine
r/min)


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 started flashing)


a clock


an air intake temperature display


a fuel meter


a coolant temperature meter


a self-diagnosis device
NOTE:

Be sure to turn the key to “ON” be-
fore using the “SELECT” and “RE-
SET” buttons.


For the U.K. only: To switch the
speedometer and odometer/trip-
meter displays between kilometers
and miles, press the “SELECT”button for at least two seconds.Odometer, tripmeter and digital ta-
chometer modes
Pushing the “SELECT” button switches
the display between the odometer
mode “ODO” and the tripmeter modes
“TRIP 1” and “TRIP 2” (“TRIP F”) and
the tachometer “E” in the following or-
der:
ODO → TRIP 1 → TRIP 2 → (TRIP F)
→ E → ODO
When the fuel amount in the fuel tank
decreases to 3.6 L (0.95 US gal) (0.79
Imp.gal), the bottom segment of the
fuel meter will start flashing, and the
odometer display will automatically
change to the fuel reserve tripmeter
mode “TRIP F” and start counting the

3Fuel meter
With the key in the “ON” position, the
fuel meter indicates the amount of fuel
in the fuel tank. When the key is turned
to “ON”, all of the display segments of
the fuel meter will appear one after the
other and then disappear in order to
test the electrical circuit. The display
segments of the fuel meter disappear
towards “E” (Empty) as the fuel level
decreases. When only one segment is
left near “E” (Empty), refuel as soon as
possible.
NOTE:This fuel meter is equipped with a self-
diagnosis system. If the electrical circuit
is defective, the following cycle will berepeated until the malfunction is cor-
rected: the display segments, except
the “F” (Full) and “E” (Empty) seg-
ments, will flash eight times and then
go off for 3 seconds. If this occurs, have
a Yamaha dealer check the electrical
circuit.
Coolant temperature meter
With the key in the “ON” position, the
coolant temperature meter indicates
the temperature of the coolant. When
the key is turned to “ON”, all of the dis-
play segments of the coolant tempera-
ture meter will appear one after the
other and then disappear in order to
test the electrical circuit. The coolanttemperature varies with changes in the
weather and engine load. If the top seg-
ment flashes, stop the vehicle and let
the engine cool. (See page 6-37.)
NOTE:This coolant temperature meter is
equipped with a self-diagnosis system.
If the electrical circuit is defective, the
following cycle will be repeated until the
malfunction is corrected: the display
segments, except the “H” (High) and “L”
(Low) segments, will flash eight times
and then go off for 3 seconds. If this oc-
curs, have a Yamaha dealer check theelectrical circuit.CAUTION:
ECA10020
Do not operate the engine if it isoverheated.

nosis device for various electrical cir-
cuits.

3 If any of those circuits are defective, the
engine trouble warning light will come
on, and then the multi-function display
will indicate a two-digit error code.
This model is also equipped with a self-
diagnosis device for the immobilizer
system.
If any of the immobilizer system circuits
are defective, the immobilizer system
indicator light will flash, and then the
multi-function display will indicate a
two-digit error code.
NOTE:If the multi-function display indicates er-
ror code 52 (all segments of the coolant
temperature meter will come on, except
the top segment, which will flash), this
could be caused by transponder inter-
ference. If this error appears, try the fol-lowing.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 immobilizer
key on the same key ring! Immobilizer
system keys may cause signal interfer-
ence, which may prevent the enginefrom 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-registeringkey and both standard keys to a
Yamaha dealer and have the stan-
dard keys re-registered.
If the multi-function display indicates
any error code, note the code number,
and then have a Yamaha dealer check
the vehicle.
CAUTION:
ECA11590
If the display indicates an error
code, the vehicle should be checked
as soon as possible in order to avoidengine damage.

NOTE:After the engine is started, the engine
oil level warning light should go off if theoil level is sufficient.CAUTION:
ECA10400
If the oil level warning light flickers
or remains on, immediately turn the
engine off and have a Yamaha dealercheck the vehicle.
10. Turn the engine off, and then
check the oil level and correct it if
necessary.

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.
EAU40151
To check the coolant level
The coolant level should be checked as
follows before each ride. In addition,
the coolant must be changed at the in-
tervals specified in the periodic mainte-
nance and lubrication chart.
1. Place the vehicle on the center-
stand.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 theside can result in a false reading.
2. Check the coolant level in the cool-
ant reservoir.
NOTE:The coolant should be between theminimum and maximum level marks.
3. If the coolant is at or below the
minimum level mark, remove the
reservoir cap.1. Coolant reservoir

raise the coolant to the maximum
level mark, install the coolant res-
ervoir cap.
CAUTION:
ECA10471


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 cooling 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 ofthe coolant will be reduced.WARNING
EWA10380
Never attempt to remove the radiatorcap when the engine is hot.NOTE:

The radiator fan is automatically
switched on or off according to the
coolant temperature in the radia-
tor.


If the engine overheats, see page6-37 for further instructions.
EAU40133
To change the coolant
1. Place the vehicle on the center-
stand and let the engine cool if
necessary.
2. Remove panel A. (See page 6-6.)3. Place a container under the engine
to collect the used coolant.
4. Remove the radiator cap retaining
bolt, radiator cap retainer and radi-
ator cap.
