WARNING
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 an accident.
The multi-function display is equip-
ped with the following:
●an odometer (which shows the
total distance traveled)
●two tripmeters (which show the
distance traveled since they werelast set to zero, the time passed
since the tripmeters were set to
zero, and the average speed tra-
veled during this time)
●a fuel reserve tripmeter (which
shows the distance traveled sin-
ce 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 kilome-
ters and the temperature reading
is displayed 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
1. Total
2. Trip 1
3. Trip 2
4. Trip/Fuel
TIP
The Trip/fuel odometer is only activa-
ted if 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 Ave-
rage speed 1 or 2 Trip 1 or Trip 2

Ambient temperature display
1. Frost warning indicator “ ”
2. Minus item
3. Temperature
This display shows the ambient tem-
perature from –30 °C (–86 °F) to 50 °C
(122 °F).
The frost warning indicator “ ”
automatically comes on if the tempe-
rature is lower than 3°C (37°F).Oil change indicator “OIL”
1. Oil change indicator “OIL”
The engine oil should be changed
when this indicator comes on. The
indicator stays on until it is reset. After
changing the engine oil, reset the
indicator as follows.
1. While holding the “MODE” and
“SET” buttons pushed, turn the
key to “ON”.
2. Continue holding the “MODE”
and “SET” buttons pushed for
two to five seconds.
3. Release the buttons and the oil
change indicator will go off.
TIP
●The oil change indicator will
come on at the initial 1000 km
(600 mi), 5000 km (3000 mi) after
the initial 1000 km (600 mi) and
every 6000 km (3600 mi) thereaf-
ter.
●If the engine oil is changed befo-
re the oil change indicator comes
on (i.e. before the periodic oil
change interval has been rea-
ched), the indicator must be reset
after the oil change for the next
periodic oil change to be indica-
ted at the correct time. After
resetting, the indicator will come
on for two seconds. If the indica-
tor does not come on, repeat the
procedure.

Inspect your vehicle each time you use it to make sure the vehicle is in safe operating condition. Always follow the ins-
pection and maintenance procedures and schedules described in the Owner’s Manual.

WARNING
Failure to inspect or maintain the vehicle properly increases the possibility of an accident or equipment dama-
ge. Do not operate the vehicle if you find any problem. If a problem cannot be corrected by the procedures pro-
vided in this manual, have the vehicle inspected by a Yamaha dealer.
Before using this vehicle, check the following points:

EAU16820
Tips for reducing fuel
consumption
Fuel consumption depends largely on
your riding style. Consider the follo-
wing tips to reduce fuel consumption:
●Avoid high engine speeds during
acceleration.
●Avoid high engine speeds with no
load on the engine.
●Turn the engine off instead of let-
ting it idle for an extended length
of time (e.g., in traffic jams, at
traffic lights or at railroad cros-
sings).
EAU16830
Engine break-in
There is never a more important
period in the life of your engine than
the period between 0 and 1000 km
(600 mi). For this reason, you should
read the following material carefully.
Since the engine is brand new, do not
put an excessive load on it for the first
1000 km (600 mi). The various parts in
the engine wear and polish themsel-
ves to the correct operating clearan-
ces. During this period, prolonged
full-throttle operation or any condition
that might result in engine overhea-
ting must be avoided.
EAUM2281
0–500 km (0–300 mi)
●Avoid prolonged operation above
1/3 throttle.
500–1000 km (300–600 mi)
●Avoid prolonged operation above
1/2 throttle. NOTICE: After 1000
km (600 mi) of operation, the
engine oil and final transmis-
sion oil must be changed, andthe engine oil filter element
replaced.
[ECAM1091]
1000 km (600 mi) and beyond
●The vehicle can now be operated
normally.
ECA10270
NOTICE
If any engine trouble should occur
during the engine break-in period,
immediately have a Yamaha dealer
check the vehicle.
