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.
1. Clock/ambient temperature display
2. Coolant temperature meter
3. Fuel meter
4. Odometer/fuel reserve tripmeter
5. “SELECT” button
6. “RESET” button1. V-belt replacement indicator “V-BELT”
2. Fuel level warning indicator “ ”
3. Coolant temperature warning indicator “ ”
4. Oil change indicator “OIL”
The multi-function display is equip-
ped with the following:
a fuel meter
a coolant temperature meter
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 sin-
ce the bottom segment of the
fuel meter and fuel level warning
indicator started flashing)
a self-diagnosis device
a clock
an ambient temperature display
an oil change indicator
a V-belt replacement indicator
TIP
Be sure to turn the key to “ON”
before using the “SELECT” and
“RESET” buttons.
When the key is turned to “ON”,
all of the display segments of the
multi-function display will appear
and then disappear, in order to
test the electrical circuit.
Odometer and tripmeter modes
Pushing the “SELECT” button swit-
ches the display between the odome-
ter mode “Odo” and the tripmeter
modes “Trip” in the following order:
Odo/Trip (top)
Trip (bottom)/Trip

When approximately 1.7 L (0.45 US
gal, 0.37 Imp.gal) of fuel remains in
the fuel tank, the bottom segment of
the fuel meter and fuel level warning
indicator will start flashing, and the
display will automatically change to
the fuel reserve tripmeter mode “Trip
F” and start counting the distance tra-
veled from that point. In that case,
pushing the “SELECT” button swit-
ches the display between the various
tripmeter and odometer modes in the
following order:
Trip F/Trip (top) Trip (bottom)/Trip
(top) Odo/Trip (top) Trip F/Trip
(top)
1. Fuel reserve tripmeter
To reset a tripmeter, select it by pus-
hing the “SELECT” button until “Trip”
or “Trip F” begins flashing (“Trip” or
“Trip F” will only flash for five
seconds). While “Trip” or “Trip F” is
flashing, push the “RESET” button for
at least one second. If you do not
reset the fuel reserve tripmeter
manually, it will reset itself automati- cally and the display will return to the
prior mode after refueling and trave-
ling 5 km (3 mi).
TIP
The display cannot be changed back
to “Trip F” after pushing the “RESET”
button.
Fuel meter
With the key in the “ON” position, the
fuel meter indicates the amount of
fuel in the fuel tank. The display seg-
ments of the fuel meter disappear
towards “E” (Empty) as the fuel level
decreases. When the fuel level rea-
ches the bottom segment near “E”,
the fuel level warning indicator and
the bottom segment will flash. Refuel
as soon as possible.
Coolant temperature meter
With the key in the “ON” position, the
coolant temperature meter indicates
the temperature of the coolant. The
coolant temperature varies with chan-
ges in the weather and engine load. If
the top segment and coolant tempe-

rature warning indicator flash, stop
the vehicle and let the engine cool.
(See page 6-30).
ECA10021
Do not continue to operate the
engine if it is overheating.
Oil change indicator “OIL”
This indicator flashes at the initial
1000 km (600 mi), then at 4000 km
(2500 mi) and every 3000 km (1800
mi) thereafter to indicate that the
engine oil should be changed.
After changing the engine oil, reset
the oil change indicator. (See page
6-10). If the engine oil is changed before the
oil change indicator comes on (i.e.
before the periodic oil change interval
has been reached), the indicator must
be reset after the oil change for the
next periodic oil change to be indica-
ted at the correct time. (See page
6-10).
The electrical circuit of the indicator
can be checked according to the
following procedure.
1. Turn the key to “ON”.
2. Check that the indicator comes on for a few seconds and then
goes off.
3. If the indicator does not come on, have a Yamaha dealer check the
electrical circuit.
V-belt replacement indicator
“V-BELT”
This indicator flashes every 20000 km
(12500 mi) when the V-belt needs to
be replaced.
The electrical circuit of the indicator
can be checked according to the
following procedure. 1. Turn the key to “ON”.
2. Check that the indicator comes
on for a few seconds and then
goes off.
3. If the indicator does not come on, have a Yamaha dealer check the
electrical circuit.
Self-diagnosis device
This model is equipped with a self-
diagnosis device for various electrical
circuits.
If a problem is detected in any of tho-
se circuits, the multi-function display
will indicate an error code.
If the multi-function display indicates
such an error code, note the code
number, and then have a Yamaha
dealer check the vehicle.ECA11790
If the multi-function display indica-
tes an error code, the vehicle
should be checked as soon as pos-
sible in order to avoid engine
damage.

The self-diagnosis device also
detects problems in the immobilizer
system circuits.
If a problem is detected in the immo-
bilizer system circuits, the immobilizer
system indicator light will flash and
the multi-function display will indicate
an error code when the key is turned
to “ON”.
TIP
If the multi-function display indicates
error code 52, this could be caused
by transponder interference. If this
error appears, try the following.
1. Error code display
1. Use the code re-registering keyto 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, andtry 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.
If the multi-function display indicates
any error codes, note the code num-
ber, and then have a Yamaha dealer
check the vehicle. Clock mode
T
o set the clock:
1. Push the “SELECT” button and
“RESET” button together for at
least two seconds.
2. When the hour digits start flas- hing, push the “RESET” button to
set the hours.
3. Push the “SELECT” button, and the minute digits will start flas-
hing.

4. Push the “RESET” button to setthe minutes.
5. Push the “SELECT” button and then release it to start the clock.
Ambient temperature display
Pushing the “SELECT” button for at
least two seconds switches the clock
display to the ambient temperature
display. This display shows the
ambient temperature from –10 °C to
50 °C in 1 °C increments. The tempe-
rature displayed may vary from the
ambient temperature. Pushing the
“SELECT” button for at least two
seconds switches the ambient tem-
perature display to the clock display.
TIP
If the ambient temperature falls
below –10 °C, a lower temperatu-
re than –10 °C will not be displa-
yed.
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 (12.5 mi/h)) or
when stopped at traffic signals,
railroad crossings, etc.
