
a fuel meter

a coolant temperature meter

an odometer

two tripmeters (which show the
distance traveled since they were
last set to zero)


fuel meter indicates the amount of fuel
in the fuel tank. The display segments
of the fuel meter disappear towards “E”
(Empty) as the fuel level decreases.
When the fuel level reaches the bottom
segment near “E”, the fuel level warn-
ing indicator, “F”, “E”, 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 chang-
es in the weather and engine load. If
the top segment, “H”, “C”, and coolant
temperature warning indicator flash,
stop the vehicle and let the engine cool. (See page 6-38.)
NOTICE
ECA10021
Do not continue to operate the en-gine if it is overheating.
Oil change indicator “Oil”
This indicator flashes at the initial 1000
km (600 mi), then at 5000 km (3000 mi)
and every 5000 km (3000 mi) thereafter
to indicate that the engine oil should be
changed.
After changing the engine oil, reset the
oil change indicator. To reset the oil
change indicator, select it by pushing
the left set button until “Oil Trip” is dis-
played, and then push the left set but-
ton at least one second. When pushing
the left set button, “Oil Trip” starts flash-
ing. While “Oil Trip” is flashing, push the
left set button for at least three sec-
onds.
If the engine oil is changed before the
oil change indicator “Oil” flashes (i.e.
before the periodic oil change interval
has been reached), the indicator “Oil”
must be reset after the oil change for
the next periodic oil change to be indi-
cated at the correct time.
The electrical circuit of the indicator can
be checked according to the following
procedure.
1. Set the engine stop switch to “ ” and turn the key to “ON”.
2. Check that the oil change indicator comes on for a few seconds and1. Oil change indicator “Oil”1

3. If the oil change 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.
After changing the V-belt, reset the
V-belt replacement indicator. To reset
the V-belt replacement indicator, select
it by pushing the left set button until
“V-Belt Trip” is displayed, and then
push the left set button at least one sec-
ond. When pushing the left set button, “V-Belt Trip” starts flashing. While
“V-Belt Trip” is flashing, push the left set
button for at least three seconds.
If the V-belt is changed before the
V-belt replacement indicator “V-Belt”
flashes (i.e. before the periodic V-belt
change interval has been reached), the
indicator “V-Belt” must be reset after
the V-belt change for the next periodic
V-belt change to be indicated at the
correct time.
The electrical circuit of the indicator can
be checked according to the following
procedure.
1. Turn the key to “ON” and make sure that the engine stop switch is
set to “ ”.
2. Check that the V-belt replacement indicator comes on for a few sec-
onds and then goes off.
3. If the V-belt replacement indicator does not come on, have a Yamaha
dealer check the electrical circuit. Ambient temperature display, aver-
age fuel consumption, and instan-

and maintenance procedures and schedules described in the Owner’s Manual.
WARNING
EWA11151
Failure to inspect or maintain the vehicle properly increases the possibility of an accident or equipment damage.
Do not operate the vehicle if you find any problem. If a problem cannot be corrected by the procedures provided inthis manual, have the vehicle inspected by a Yamaha dealer.
Before using this vehicle, check the following points:
ITEM CHECKS PAGE
Fuel Check fuel level in fuel tank.
Refuel if necessary.
Check fuel line for leakage.
Check fuel tank breather hose and overfl
ow hose for obstructions, cracks or
damage, and check hose connections. 3-18
Engine oil Check oil level in engine.
If necessary, add recommended oil to specified level.
Check vehicle for oil leakage. 6-11
Coolant Check coolant level in reservoir.
If necessary, add recommended coolant to specified level.
Check cooling system for leakage. 6-14
Front brake Check operation.
If soft or spongy, have Yamaha dealer bleed hydraulic system.
Check brake pads for wear.
Replace if necessary.
Check fluid level in reservoir.
If necessary, add specified brak
e fluid to specified level.

OPERATION AND IMPORTANT RIDING POINTS
EAU15951
Read the Owner’s Manual carefully to
become familiar with all controls. If
there is a control or function you do not
understand, ask your Yamaha dealer.
WARNING
EWA10271
Failure to familiarize yourself with
the controls can lead to loss of con-
trol, which could cause an accidentor injury.
EAU48710
TIPThis model is equipped with:
a lean angle sensor to stop the en-
gine in case of a turnover. In this
case, the multi-function display in-
dicates 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 pre-
vent the engine from starting even
though the engine will crank when
pushing the start switch.

an engine auto-stop system. The
engine stops automatically if left
idling for 20 minutes. If the engine
stops, simply push the start switchto restart the engine.
EAU54010
Starting the engine NOTICE
ECA10250
See page 5-4 for engine break-in in-
structions prior to operating the ve-hicle for the first time.
In order for the ignition circuit cut-off
system to enable starting, the side-
stand must be up.
See page 3-27 for more information.1. Turn the key to “ON” and make sure that the engine stop switch is
set to “ ”.

EAU16820
Tips for reducing fuel
consumption Fuel consumption depends largely on
your riding style. Consider the following
tips to reduce fuel consumption:
Avoid high engine speeds during
acceleration.

Avoid high engine speeds with no
load on the engine.

Turn the engine off instead of let-
ting it idle for an extended length of
time (e.g., in traffic jams, at traffic
lights or at railroad crossings).
EAU16841
Engine break-in There is never a more important period
in the life of your engine than the period
between 0 and 1600 km (1000 mi). For
this reason, you should read the follow-
ing material carefully.
Since the engine is brand new, do not
put an excessive load on it for the first
1600 km (1000 mi). The various parts in
the engine wear and polish themselves
to the correct operating clearances.
During this period, prolonged full-throt-
tle operation or any condition that might
result in engine overheating must be
avoided.
EAU36531
0–1000 km (0–600 mi)
Avoid prolonged operation above 4100
r/min. NOTICE: After 1000 km (600
mi) of operation, the engine oil must
be changed, and the oil filter car-
tridge or element replaced.
[ECA11282]

1000–1600 km (600–1000 mi)
Avoid prolonged operation above 5000
r/min. 1600 km (1000 mi) and beyond
The vehicle can now be operated nor-
mally.
NOTICE
ECA10310

Keep the engine speed out of
the tachometer red zone.

If any engine trouble should oc-
cur during the engine break-in
period, immediately have a
Yamaha dealer check the vehi-cle.
