Immobilizer system
1. Code re-registering key (red bow)
2. Standard keys (black bow)
This vehicle is equipped with an
immobilizer system to help prevent
theft by re-registering codes in the
standard keys. This system consists
of the following.
●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
●an ECU (Electronic Control Unit)
●an immobilizer system indicator
light (See page 3-3).
The key with the red bow is used to
register codes in each standard key.
Since re-registering is a difficult pro-
cess, take the vehicle along with all
three keys to a Yamaha dealer to have
them re-registered. Do not use the
key with the red bow for driving. It
should only be used for re-registering
the standard keys. Always use a stan-
dard key for driving.
ECA11821
NOTICE
●DO NOT LOSE THE CODE RE-
REGISTERING KEY! CONTACT
YOUR DEALER IMMEDIATELY
IF IT IS LOST! If the code re-
registering key is lost, registe-
ring new codes in the standard
keys is impossible. The stan-
dard 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 immobilizer system must
be replaced. Therefore, it is
highly recommended to useeither standard key and keep
the code re-registering key in a
safe place.
●Do not submerse any key in
water.
●Do not expose any key to
excessively high temperatures.
●Do not place any key close to
magnets (this includes, but not
limited to, products such as
speakers, etc.).
●Do not place items that trans-
mit electrical signals close to
any key.
●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
immobilizer 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 sig-
nal interference.EAU10471
Main switch/steering lock
The main switch/steering lock con-
trols the ignition and lighting systems,
and is used to lock the steering.
TIP
Be sure to use the standard key
(black bow) for regular use of the
vehicle. To minimize the risk of losing
the code re-registering key (red bow),
keep it in a safe place and only use it
for code re-registering.

Fuel level warning light “ ”
This warning light comes on when the
fuel level drops below approximately
2 L (0.53 US gal) (0.44 Imp.gal). When
this occurs, refuel as soon as possi-
ble.
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.
EAUT1932
Engine trouble warning light “ ”
This warning light flashes or stays on
if an electrical circuit monitoring the
engine is not working correctly. If 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.
EAU27021
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
circuit.
When the key is turned to “OFF” and
30 seconds have passed, the indica-
tor light will start flashing indicating
the immobilizer system is enabled.
After 24 hours have passed, the indi-
cator light will stop flashing, however
the immobilizer system is still ena-
bled.
TIP
This model is also equipped with a
self-diagnosis device for the immobi-
lizer system. If the immobilizer system
is not working correctly, the indicator
light will start flashing a pattern when
the key is turned to “ON”. When this
occurs, have a Yamaha dealer check
the self-diagnosis system. However, if
the indicator light slowly flashes fivetimes, and then quickly flashes two
times repeatedly, this error could be
caused by signal interference. If this
occurs, try the following.
1. Use the code re-registering key
to start the engine.
TIP
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 interference, which may pre-
vent 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-registe-
ring key and both standard keys
to a Yamaha dealer and have the
standard keys re-registered.
