Engine trouble warning light“”
This warning light comes on if a prob-
lem is detected in the electrical circuit
monitoring the engine. 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“”. 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“”,
or if the warning light remains on, have
a Yamaha dealer check the electrical
circuit.
EAU11591
Speedometer UK ONLY
The speedometer shows the riding
speed.

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 3-4.) If this occurs, refuel as soon
as possible.TIPDo not allow the fuel tank to empty itself
completely.

Coolant temperature gauge With the key in the“” 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 6-29.)NOTICE
ECA10021
Do not continue to operate the en-
gine if it is overheating.

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:

an odometer (which shows the to-
tal distance traveled)


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.

3 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
TIP

The Trip/fuel odometer is only acti-
vated 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 → Aver-
age speed 1 or 2 → Trip 1 or Trip 2
If the fuel level warning light comes on
(See page 3-2.), 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 →
Trip/fuel
To reset a tripmeter, select it by push-
ing the “MODE” button, and then push
the “SET” button for at least one sec-
ond. If you do not reset the fuel reserve
tripmeter manually, it will reset itself au-
tomatically and the display will return to
the prior mode after refueling and trav-
eling 5 km (3 mi).
Clock mode
To set the clock:
1. When the display is in the “Total”
mode, push the “SET” button for at
least two seconds.
2. When the hour digits start flashing,

(122 °F).
The frost warning indicator“” auto-
matically comes on if the temperature is
lower than 3 °C (37 °F).Oil change indicator “OIL”
