will stop flashing, however the immobi-
lizer system is still enabled.
TIP

This model is also equipped with a
self-diagnosis device for the immobiliz-
er system. If the immobilizer system is
not working correctly, the indicator light
will start flashing a pattern and the
odometer/tripmeter will display a 2-digit
code 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 five times, and then quickly
flashes two times repeatedly, error
code 52 will be displayed. 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 interfer-
ence, which may prevent 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-registering
key and both standard keys to a
Yamaha dealer and have the stan-
dard keys re-registered.

Tachometer unit
The electric tachometer allows the rider
to monitor the engine speed and keep it
within the ideal power range.
When the key is turned to “ON”, the ta-
chometer needle will sweep once
across the r/min range and then return
to zero r/min in order to test the electri-
cal circuit.

Multi-function display
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 an
accident.
The multi-function display is equipped
with the following:

a digital speedometer

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 fuel gauge

a self-diagnosis device
TIP


Be sure to turn the key to “ON” be-
fore using the “SELECT” and
“RESET” buttons.

For the U.K. only: To switch the
speedometer and odometer/trip-
meter displays between kilometers
and miles, press the “SELECT”
button for at least one second.
Odometer and tripmeter modes
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
If the fuel level warning indicator flash-
es (see page 3-4), the odometer dis-play will automatically change to the
fuel reserve tripmeter mode “TRIP F”
and start counting the distance traveled
from that point. In that case, pushing
the “SELECT” button switches the dis-
play between the various tripmeter and
odometer modes in the following order:
TRIP F
→
TRIP 1
→
TRIP 2
→
ODO
→
TRIP F
To reset a tripmeter, select it by push-
ing the “SELECT” button, and then
push the “RESET” button for at least
one second. If you do not reset the fuel
reserve tripmeter manually, it will reset
itself automatically and the display will
return to the prior mode after refueling
and traveling 5 km (3 mi).
TIP

The display cannot be changed back to
“TRIP F” after pushing the “RESET”
button.
Fuel gauge
The fuel gauge indicates the amount of
fuel in the fuel tank. The display seg-
ments of the fuel gauge disappear to-
wards “E” (Empty) as the fuel level
decreases. When only one segment is

left near “E”, the fuel level warning indi-
cator and the last fuel gauge segment
will flash. Refuel as soon as possible.
Self-diagnosis device
This model is equipped with a self-diag-
nosis device for various electrical cir-
cuits.
If a problem is detected in any of those
circuits, the odometer/tripmeter will in-
dicate an error code.
If the odometer/tripmeter indicates
such an error code, note the code num-
ber, and then have a Yamaha dealer
check the vehicle.
NOTICE

ECA11520
If the odometer/tripmeter indicates
an error code, the vehicle should be
checked as soon as possible in or-
der to avoid engine damage.

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 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 technical
skills.
