Fuel gauge The fuel gauge indicates the amount of
fuel in the fuel tank. The needle moves
towards “E” (Empty) as the fuel level
decreases. When the remaining fuel in
the tank reaches approximately 2.7 L
(0.72 US gal, 0.60 Imp.gal), the fuel
level warning light will come on and the
multi-function display will automatically
change to the “Trip/fuel” mode. (See
page 3-6.) If this occurs, refuel as soon
as possible.TIPDo not allow the fuel tank to empty itselfcompletely.
EAU12172
Coolant temperature gauge With the key in the “ON” position, the
coolant temperature gauge indicates
the temperature of the coolant. The
coolant temperature varies with chang-
es in the weather and engine load. If
the needle reaches or enters the red
zone, stop the vehicle and let the en-
gine cool. (See page 6-30.)NOTICE

Do not continue to operate the en-gine if it is overheating.

WARNING
EWA12312
Be sure to stop the vehicle before
making any setting changes to the
multi-function display. Changing
settings while riding can distract the
operator and increase the risk of anaccident.
The multi-function display is equipped
with the following:
an odometer (which shows the to-
tal distance traveled)
1. Fuel gauge
2. Fuel level warning light1

two tripmeters (which show the
distance traveled since they were
last set to zero, the time passed
since the tripmeters were set to ze-
ro, and the average speed traveled
during this time)
a fuel reserve tripmeter (which
shows the distance traveled since
the fuel level warning light came
on)
a clock
an ambient temperature display
an oil change indicator (which
comes on when the engine oil
should be changed)
TIP
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 kilometers
and the temperature reading is dis-played in °C.Odometer and tripmeter modes
Pushing the “MODE” button switches
the display between the odometer
mode “Total” and the tripmeter modes
“Trip” in the following order:
Total → Trip 1 → Trip 2 → Trip/fuel →
Total
TIPThe Trip/fuel odometer is only activatedif the fuel level warning light comes on.
Pushing the “SET” button when in the
tripmeter mode switches the display
between the different tripmeter func-
tions in the following order:Trip 1 or Trip 2 → Time 1 or 2 → Aver-
age speed 1 or 2 → Trip 1 or Trip 2
If the fuel level warning light comes on
(See page 3-5.), the display will auto-
matically change to the fuel reserve
tripmeter mode “Trip/fuel” and start
counting the distance traveled from that
point. In that case, pushing the “MODE”
button switches the display between
the various tripmeter and odometer
modes in the following order:
Trip/Fuel → Trip 1 → Trip 2 → Total →

Periodic maintenance and lubrication chart TIP
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 30000 km (17500 mi), repeat the maintenance intervals starting from 6000 km (3500 mi).
Items marked with an asterisk should be performed by a Yamaha dealer as they require special tools, data and technicalskills.
