ABS warning light“”
If this warning light comes on or flashes
while riding, the ABS may not work cor-

dealer check the system as soon as
possible. (See page 3-17.)
WARNING
EWA10081
If the ABS warning light comes on or
flashes while riding, the brake sys-
tem reverts to conventional braking.
Therefore, be careful not to cause
the wheels to lock during emergen-
cy braking. If the warning light
comes on or flashes while riding,
have a Yamaha dealer check the
brake system as soon as possible.The electrical circuit of the warning light
can be checked by turning the key to
“ON”. The warning light should come
on for a few seconds, and then go off.
If the warning light does not come on
initially when the key is turned to “ON”,
or if the warning light remains on, have
a Yamaha dealer check the electrical
circuit.

Immobilizer system indicator light
The electrical circuit of the indicator
light can be checked by turning the key
to “ON”. The indicator light should
come on for a few seconds, and then
go off.
If the indicator light does not come on
initially when the key is turned to “ON”,
or if the indicator light remains on, have
a Yamaha dealer check the electrical
circuit.
When the key is turned to “OFF” and 30
seconds have passed, the indicator
light will start flashing indicating the im-
mobilizer system is enabled. After 24
hours have passed, the indicator light
will stop flashing, however the immobi-
lizer system is still enabled.
This model is also equipped with a self-
diagnosis device for the immobilizer
system. (See page 3-12 for an explana-
tion of the self-diagnosis device.)

WARNING
EWA14431
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 equipped
with the following:
an odometer
two tripmeters (which show the
distance traveled since they were
last set to zero)
a fuel reserve tripmeter (which
shows the distance traveled on the
fuel reserve)
a clock
a fuel meter
a coolant temperature meter
a transmission gear display
an ambient temperature display
a fuel consumption display (instan-
taneous and average consumption
functions)
a self-diagnosis device

Pushing the select button switches the
display between the odometer mode
“ODO” and the tripmeter modes “Trip 1”
and “Trip 2” in the following order:
ODO → Trip 1 → Trip 2 → ODO
TIPWhen selecting “Trip 1” or “Trip 2”, the
display flashes for five seconds.When approximately 5.5 L (1.45 US
gal, 1.21 Imp.gal) of fuel remains in the
fuel tank, the display will automatically
change to the fuel reserve tripmeter
mode “Trip F” and start counting the
distance traveled from that point. In thatcase, pushing the select button switch-
es the display between the various trip-
meter and odometer modes in the
following order:
Trip F → ODO → Trip 1 → Trip 2 → Trip
F
TIPWhen selecting “Trip 1”, “Trip 2” or “Trip
F”, the display flashes for five seconds.To reset a tripmeter, select it by push-
ing the select button, and then push the
select button for at least one second
while the display is flashing. If you do
not reset the fuel reserve tripmeter
manually, it will reset itself automatical-
ly and the display will return to the prior
mode after refueling and traveling 5 km
(3 mi).Clock
To set the clock:
1. Push the select button and reset
button together for at least two
seconds.
2. When the hour digits start flashing,
push the reset button to set the

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
starts flashing, refuel as soon as possi-
ble.
When the key is turned to “ON”, all dis-
play segments come on once in order
to test the electrical circuit.
TIPThis fuel meter is equipped with a self-
diagnosis system. If a problem is de-
tected in the electrical circuit, all displaysegments will start flashing. If this oc-
curs, have a Yamaha dealer check the
electrical circuit.
Coolant temperature meter
The coolant temperature meter indi-
cates the temperature of the coolant.
The coolant temperature varies with
changes in the weather and engine
load. If the top segment flashes, stop
the vehicle, then stop the engine, and
let the engine cool. (See page 6-34.)
When the key is turned to “ON”, all dis-
play segments come on once in order
to test the electrical circuit.

(except for the UK)
Push the reset button to switch the dis-
play between the ambient temperature
mode “Air”, the instantaneous fuel con-
sumption mode “km/L” or “L/100 km”
and the average fuel consumption
mode “AV_ _._ km/L” or “AV_ _._ L/100
km” in the following order:
Air → km/L or L/100 km → AV_ _._
km/L or AV_ _._ L/100 km → AirAmbient temperature mode
This display shows the ambient tem-
perature from –9 °C to 50 °C in 1 °C in-
crements. The temperature displayed
may vary from the ambient tempera-
ture.TIP
If the ambient temperature falls be-
low –9 °C, a lower temperature
than –9 °C will not be displayed.
If the ambient temperature climbs
above 50 °C, a higher temperature
than 50 °C will not be displayed.
The accuracy of the temperature
reading may be affected when
riding slowly (approximately under
20 km/h) or when stopped at traffic
signals, railroad crossings, etc.
Instantaneous fuel consumption modeThe instantaneous fuel consumption
display can be set to either “km/L” or
“L/100 km”.
When the display is set to “km/L”,
the distance that can be traveled
on 1.0 L of fuel under the current
riding conditions is shown.
When the display is set to “L/100
km”, the amount of fuel necessary
to travel 100 km under the current
riding conditions is shown.

TIP
To switch between the two instan-
taneous fuel consumption dis-
plays, push the reset button for 1
second when either display is
shown.
If traveling at speeds under 10
km/h, “_ _._” will be displayed.
Average fuel consumption modeThis display shows the average fuel
consumption since it was last reset.
The average fuel consumption display
can be set to either “AV_ _._ km/L” or
“AV_ _._ L/100 km”.When the average fuel consumption
mode is selected, the display flashes
for five seconds, and then, depending
on the unit set, “AV_ _._ km/L” (aver-
age distance that can be traveled using
1.0 L of fuel) or “AV_ _._ L/100 km” (av-
erage amount of fuel necessary to trav-
el 100 km) is displayed.
To reset the average fuel consumption
display, push the reset button to select
the mode again, and then push the re-
set button for 1 second while the dis-
play is flashing.
