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 fuel meter
a clock
a self-diagnosis device
a display, speedometer, and ta-
chometer brightness control mode
TIPBe sure to turn the key to “ON” before
using the select and reset buttons, ex-
cept for setting the display, speedome-
ter and tachometer brightness control
mode.
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
When approximately 4.5 L (1.19 US
gal, 0.99 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 that
case, 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 →

Fuel 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 fuel level warning
indicator“” starts flashing, refuel as
soon as possible.
TIPThis fuel meter is equipped with a self-
diagnosis system. If a problem is de-
tected in the electrical circuit, the follow-
ing cycle will be repeated until the
malfunction is corrected: All the display
segments and symbol“” will flash
eight times, then go off for approxi-
mately 3 seconds. If this occurs, have a
Yamaha dealer check the electrical cir-
cuit.Clock mode
To set the clock:1. Turn the key to “ON”.2. Push the select button and reset
button together for at least two
seconds.

3If a problem is detected in any of those
circuits, the engine trouble warning light
will come on and the odometer/tripme-
ter display will indicate an error code.
The self-diagnosis device also detects
problems in the immobilizer system cir-
cuits.
If a problem is detected in the immobi-
lizer system circuits, the immobilizer
system indicator light will flash and the
display will indicate an error code.
TIPIf the display indicates error code 52,
this could be caused by transponder in-
terference. If this error code appears,
try the following.1. Use the code re-registering key to
start the engine.TIPMake 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.
If the display indicates any error codes,
note the code number, and then have a
Yamaha dealer check the vehicle.NOTICE
ECA11790
If the multi-function display indi-
cates an error code, the vehicle
should be checked as soon as pos-
sible in order to avoid engine dam-
age.
