3Fuel meter
The fuel meter indicates the amount of
fuel in the fuel tank. The display seg-
ments of the fuel meter disappear to-
wards “E” (Empty) as the fuel level
decreases. When the last segment on
the left starts flashing, 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 be
repeated until the malfunction is cor-
rected: “E” (Empty), “F” (Full) and
symbol“” will flash eight times, thengo off for approximately 3 seconds. If
this occurs, have a Yamaha dealer
check the electrical circuit.
Coolant temperature mode
The coolant temperature display indi-
cates the temperature of the coolant.
Push the “RESET” button to switch the
coolant temperature display to the air
intake temperature display.NOTE:When the coolant temperature display
is selected, “C” is displayed for one
second, and then the coolant tempera-ture is displayed.
CAUTION:
ECA10020
Do not operate the engine if it isoverheated.
Air intake temperature mode
The air intake temperature display indi-
cates the temperature of the air drawn
into the air filter case. Push the “RE-
SET” button to switch the coolant tem-
perature display to the air intake
temperature display.NOTE:
Even if the air intake temperature
is set to be displayed, the coolant
temperature warning light comes
on when the engine overheats.

Periodic maintenance and lubrication chart NOTE:
The annual checks must be performed every year, except if a kilometer-based maintenance, or for the UK, a
mileage-based maintenance, is performed instead.
From 50000 km (30000 mi), repeat the maintenance intervals starting from 10000 km (6000 mi).
Items marked with an asterisk should be performed by a Yamaha dealer as they require special tools, data and technicalskills.

Replacing the air filter element The air filter element should be re-
placed at the intervals specified in the
periodic maintenance and lubrication
chart. Replace the air filter element
more frequently if you are riding in un-
usually wet or dusty areas.
1. Remove the rider seat. (See page
3-18.)
2. Remove panels A and B. (See
page 6-7.)
3. Remove the cowling bolts, and
then pull the cowling off.
4. Remove the fuel tank bolts.5. Lift the front of the fuel tank, and
then tilt it back and away from the
air filter case. (Do not disconnect
the fuel hoses!)
WARNING
EWA10410
Make sure that the fuel tank is
well supported.
Do not tilt or pull the fuel tank
too much, otherwise the fuel
hoses may come loose, whichcould cause fuel leakage.
6. Remove the air filter case cover by
removing the screws.
CAUTION:
ECA12880
When removing the air filter case
cover, be careful not to allow foreign
objects to drop into the air intakemanifold.
7. Pull the air filter element out.

68. Insert a new air filter element into
the air filter case.
CAUTION:
ECA10480
Make sure that the air filter ele-
ment is properly seated in the
air filter case.
The engine should never be op-
erated without the air filter ele-
ment installed, otherwise the
piston(s) and/or cylinder(s) maybecome excessively worn.
9. Install the air filter case cover by in-
stalling the screws.
10. Place the fuel tank in the original
position, and then install the bolts.
WARNING
EWA11360
Before placing the fuel tank in
the original position, make sure
that the fuel hoses are not dam-
aged. If any fuel hose is dam-
aged, do not start the engine but
have a Yamaha dealer replace
the hose, otherwise fuel may
leak.
Make sure that the fuel hoses
are properly connected and
routed, and not pinched.
Be sure to place the fuel tank
breather hose and the fuel tank
overflow hose in the original po-sition.11. Place the cowling in the original
position, and then install the bolts.
12. Install the panels.
13. Install the rider seat.
