Pushing the “SELECT” button switch-
es the display among the odom-
eter mode “ODO”, the tripmeter mode
“TRIP” and the oil change tripmeter
“OIL CHANGE TRIP” in the following
order:

To reset the tripmeter, select it by
pushing the “SELECT” button until
“TRIP” is displayed, and then push the
“RESET” button at least 1 second.TIPIf the tripmeter indicates “-----”, have
a Yamaha dealer check the multi-

Oil change tripmeter
To reset the oil change tripmeter, se-
lect it by pushing the “SELECT” but-
ton until “OIL CHANGE TRIP” is dis-
played, and then push the “RESET”
button at least 3 seconds.
Push the “SELECT” button again to
start the oil change tripmeter; the dis-

Oil change indicator “7”
This indicator fl ashes at the initial
1000 km (600 mi), then at every 3000
km (1800 mi) thereafter to indicate
that the engine oil should be changed.
After changing the engine oil, reset
the oil change tripmeter.
If the engine oil is changed before
the oil change indicator fl ashes (i.e.
before the periodic oil change interval
has been reached), the oil change
tripmeter must be reset after the
oil change for the next periodic oil
change to be indicated at the correct
time.TIP●
If the oil change tripmeter is reset
before the initial 1000 km (600
mi), the next periodic oil change

WARNING
Gasoline and gasoline vapors are
extremely ammable. To avoid res
and explosions and to reduce the
risk of injury when refueling, follow
these instructions.
1. Before refueling, turn off the en-

vicinity of sparks, open fl ames, or
other sources of ignition such as
the pilot lights of water heaters
and clothes dryers.
2. Do not overfi ll the fuel tank. When
refueling, be sure to insert the
pump nozzle into the fuel tank fi ll-
er hole. Stop fi lling when the fuel
reaches the bottom of the fi ller
tube. Because fuel expands when
it heats up, heat from the engine
or the sun can cause fuel to spill
out of the fuel tank.
3. Wipe up any spilled fuel im-
mediately.
NOTICE:
Immedi-
ately wipe off spilled fuel with a
clean, dry, soft cloth, since fuel
may deteriorate painted sur-
faces or plastic parts.[ECA10071]
4. Be sure to securely close the fuel
tank cap.
EWA15151
WARNING
Gasoline is poisonous and can
cause injury or death. Handle
gasoline with care. Never siphon
gasoline by mouth. If you should
swallow some gasoline or inhale a
lot of gasoline vapor, or get some
gasoline in your eyes, see your
doctor immediately. If gasoline
spills on your skin, wash with soap
and water. If gasoline spills on your
clothing, change your clothes.
EAU33520
Recommended fuel:
REGULAR UNLEADED GASO-
LINE ONLY
Fuel tank capacity:
7.4 L (1.96 US gal) (1.63 Imp.gal)
ECA11400
NOTICEUse only unleaded gasoline. The
use of leaded gasoline will cause
severe damage to internal engine
parts, such as the valves and pis-
ton rings, as well as to the exhaust
system.
Your Yamaha engine has been de-
signed to use regular unleaded gaso-
line with a research octane number of
91 or higher. If knocking (or pinging)
occurs, use a gasoline of a different
brand or premium unleaded fuel. Use of unleaded fuel will extend spark plug
life and reduce maintenance costs.
