Engine trouble warning light “ ”
This warning light comes on or flashes
if a problem is detected in the electrical
circuit monitoring the engine. If this oc-
curs, have a Yamaha dealer check the
self-diagnosis system. (See page 3-15
for an explanation of the self-diagnosis
device.)
The electrical circuit of the warning light
can be checked by turning 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 dealer check the electrical
circuit.
EAU51850
Traction control system indica-
tor/warning light “TCS”
This indicator/warning light flashes
when the traction control system en-
gages.
The electrical circuit of the light can be
checked by turning the key to “ON”.
The light should come on for a few sec-
onds, and then go off.If the light does not come on initially
when the key is turned to “ON”, or if the
light remains on, have a Yamaha deal-
er check the electrical circuit.
When the traction control system is set
to a “TCS” mode other than “OFF”, and
the traction control system is operating,
the indicator light flashes.
If the traction control system disables
while riding, “TCS OFF” is displayed,
and the indicator/warning light and en-
gine trouble warning light come on.
(See page 3-22 for an explanation of
the traction control system.)
Try to reset the traction control system
and the lights by following the proce-
dures under “Resetting” on page 3-23.
EAU11574
Shift timing indicator light
This indicator light can be set to come
on and go off at the desired engine
speeds and is used to inform the rider
when it is time to shift to the next higher
gear.
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. (See page 3-16 for a detailed
explanation of the function of this indi-
cator light and on how to set it.)

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 im-
mobilizer system is enabled. After 24
hours have passed, the indicator light
will stop flashing, however the immobi-
lizer system is still enabled.
The self-diagnosis device also detects
problems in the immobilizer system cir-
cuits. (See page 3-15 for an explana-
tion of the self-diagnosis device.)

●
two tripmeters (which show the
distance traveled since they were
last set to zero)
●
a fuel reserve tripmeter (which
shows the distance traveled since
the fuel level warning light came
on)
●
a stopwatch
●
a clock
●
a coolant temperature display
●
an air intake temperature display
●
a transmission gear display
●
a drive mode display (which shows
the selected drive mode)

TachometerThe electric 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 ta-
chometer needle sweeps once across
the r/min range and then returns to zero
r/min in order to test the electrical cir-
cuit.

Odometer, tripmeter, instantaneous
fuel consumption and average fuel
consumption modes Push the “SELECT” button to switch
the display between the odometer
mode “ODO”, the tripmeter modes
“TRIP 1” and “TRIP 2”, the instanta-
neous fuel consumption mode “km/L”
or “L/100 km”, and the average fuel
consumption mode “AVE_ _._ km/L” or
“AVE_ _._ L/100 km” in the following or-
der:
ODO
→ TRIP 1 → TRIP 2 → km/L or
L/100 km → AVE_ _._ km/L or AVE_
_._ L/100 km → ODO
For the UK only:
Push the “SELECT” button to switch
the display between the odometer
mode “ODO”, the tripmeter modes

fuel consumption mode “AVE_ _._
km/L”, “AVE_ _._ L/100 km” or “AVE_
_._ MPG” in the following order:
ODO → TRIP 1 → TRIP 2 → km/L,
L/100 km or MPG → AVE_ _._ km/L,
AVE_ _._ L/100 km or AVE_ _._ MPG
→ ODO If the fuel level warning light comes on
(see page 3-4), the display automatical-
ly changes to the fuel reserve tripmeter
mode “TRIP F” and starts counting the
distance traveled from that point. In that
case, push the “SELECT” button to
switch the display between the various
tripmeter, odometer, instantaneous fuel
consumption and average fuel con-
sumption modes in the following order:
TRIP F
→ km/L or L/100 km → AVE_

(6.0 mi/h), “_ _._” is displayed.Average fuel consumption modeThe average fuel consumption display
can be set to either “AVE_ _._ km/L”,
“AVE_ _._ L/100 km” or “AVE_ _._
MPG” (for the UK only). This display shows the average fuel
consumption since it was last reset.
●
“AVE_ _._ km/L”: The average dis-
tance that can be traveled on 1.0 L
