Neutral indicator light “ N”
This indicator light comes on when the
transmission is in the neutral position.
The electrical circuit of the neutral indi-
cator light can be checked by turning
the key to "ON". If the indicator light
does not come on for a few seconds,
then go off, have a Yamaha dealer
check the electrical circuit.
EAUB1530
High beam indicator light “1”
This indicator light comes on when the
high beam of the headlight is switched
on. The electrical circuit of the high
beam indicator light can be checked
by turning the key to "ON". If the indi-
cator light does not come on for a few
seconds, then go off, have a Yamaha
dealer check the electrical circuit.
EAU11444
Coolant temperature warning
light “u”
This warning light comes on if the en-
gine overheats. If this occurs, stop the
engine immediately and allow the en-
gine to cool. The electrical circuit of the
warning light can be checked by turn-
ing 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 deal-
er check the electrical circuit.
ECA10021
NOTICE
Do not continue to operate the en-
gine if it is overheating.
TIP
●For radiator-fan-equipped vehi-
cles, the radiator fan(s) automati-
cally switch on or off according to
the coolant temperature in the ra-
diator.
●If the engine overheats, see page
7-41 for further instructions.
EAU11534
Engine trouble warning light “U”
This warning light comes on or flashes
if a problem is detected in the electri-
cal circuit monitoring the engine. If this
occurs, have a Yamaha dealer check
the self-diagnosis system. (See page
4-8 for an explanation of the self-diag-
nosis device.) The electrical circuit of
the warning light can be checked byturning 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 re-
mains on, have a Yamaha dealer check
the electrical circuit.
EAU26876
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
immobilizer system is enabled. After
24 hours have passed, the indicator
light will stop flashing, however the im-
mobilizer system is still enabled.
This model is also equipped with a
self-diagnosis device for the immobi-
lizer system. (See page 4-8 for an ex-
planation of the self-diagnosis device.)

Tachometer
1. Tachometer
2. Red zone
The 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
tachometer needle will sweep once
across the r/min range and then return
to zero r/min in order to test the elec-
trical circuit.
ECA10030
NOTICE
Do not operate the engine in the
tachometer red zone.
Red zone: 7,500 r/min and above.
Tripmeter and tachometer modes
1. “SELECT” button
2. “RESET” button
Pushing the "SELECT" button switch-
es the display between the tripmeter
modes "TRIP 1" and "TRIP 2" in the
following order:
TRIP 1
6TRIP 2 6TRIP 1
When the fuel amount in the fuel tank
decreases to 6.7 L (1.77 US gal) (1.47
Imp.gal), the bottom segment of the
fuel meter will start flashing, and the
tripmeter display will automatically
change to the fuel reserve tripmeter
mode “F-TRIP” and start counting the
distance traveled from that point. In
that case, pushing the "SELECT" but-
ton switches the display between the
various tripmeter modes in the follow-
ing order:
F-TRIP
6TRIP 1 6TRIP 2 6F-TRIP
To reset a tripmeter, select it by push-
ing the "SELECT" button, and then
push the "RESET" button for at least
four seconds. If you do not reset the
fuel reserve tripmeter manually, it will
reset itself automatically and the dis-
play will return to the prior mode after
refueling and traveling 5 km (3 mi).

Fuel meter
1. Fuel meter
With the key in the "ON" position, the
fuel meter indicates the amount of fuel
in the fuel tank. When the key is turned
to "ON", all of the display segments of
the fuel meter will appear one after the
other and then disappear in order to
test the electrical circuit. The display
segments of the fuel meter disappear
towards "E" (Empty) as the fuel level
decreases. When only one segment is
left near "E" (Empty), refuel as soon
as possible.
TIP
This fuel meter is equipped with a self-
diagnosis system. If the electrical cir-
cuit is defective, all the segments will
start flashing. If this occurs, have a
Yamaha dealer check the electrical cir-
cuit.

NOTICE
Use only unleaded gasoline. The use
of leaded gasoline will cause severe
damage to internal engine parts,
such as the valves and piston rings,
as well as to the exhaust system.
Your Yamaha engine has been de-
signed to use premium unleaded
gasoline with a research octane num-
ber of 95 or higher. If knocking (or
pinging) occurs, use a gasoline of a
different brand. Use of unleaded fuel
will extend spark plug life and reduce
maintenance costs.
Recommended fuel:
PREMIUM UNLEADED
GASOLINE ONLY
Fuel tank capacity:
23.0 L (6.07 US gal) (5.05 Imp.gal)
Fuel reserve amount (when the fuel
level warning light comes on):
6.7 L (1.77 US gal) (1.47 Imp.gal)
EAU13433
Catalytic converter
This model is equipped with a catalyt-
ic converter in the exhaust system.
EWA10862
WARNING0
The exhaust system is hot after op-
eration. To prevent a fire hazard or
burns:
●Do not park the vehicle near
possible fire hazards such as
grass or other materials that
easily burn.
●Park the vehicle in a place
where pedestrians or children
are not likely to touch the hot
exhaust system.
●Make sure that the exhaust
system has cooled down be-
fore doing any maintenance
work.
●Do not allow the engine to idle
more than a few minutes. Long
idling can cause a build-up of
heat.

TIP
This model is equipped with a lean an-
gle sensor to stop the engine in case
of a turnover. In this case, the multi-
function display indicates error code
30, but this is not a malfunction. Turn
the key to "OFF" and then to "ON" to
clear the error code. Failing to do so
will prevent the engine from starting
even though the engine will crank
when pushing the start switch.
EAUB1570
Starting the engine
In order for the ignition circuit cut-off
system to enable starting, one of the
following conditions must be met:
●The transmission is in the neutral
position.
●The transmission is in gear with
the clutch lever pulled and the
sidestand up.
EWA10290
WARNING0
●Before starting the engine,
check the function of the igni-
tion circuit cut-off system ac-
cording to the procedure de-
scribed on page 4-18.
●Never ride with the sidestand
down.
