Turn signal indicator lights “ ”
and “ ”
The corresponding indicator light flash-
es when the turn signal switch is
pushed to the left or right.
EAU11060
Neutral indicator light “ ”
This indicator light comes on when the
transmission is in the neutral position.
EAU11080
High beam indicator light “ ”
This indicator light comes on when the
high beam of the headlight is switched
on.
EAU11254
Oil level warning light “ ”
This warning light comes on if the en-
gine oil level is low.
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.
TIP●
Even if the oil level is sufficient, the
warning light may flicker when
riding on a slope or during sudden
acceleration or deceleration, but
this is not a malfunction.
●
This model is also equipped with a
self-diagnosis device for the oil
level detection circuit. If a problem
is detected in the oil level detection
circuit, the following cycle will be
repeated until the malfunction is
corrected: The oil level warning
light will flash ten times, then go off
for 2.5 seconds. If this occurs,
have a Yamaha dealer check the
vehicle.
EAU11366
Fuel level warning light “ ”
This warning light comes on when the
fuel level drops below approximately
3.1 L (0.82 US gal, 0.68 Imp.gal). When
this occurs, refuel as soon as possible.
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.
TIPThis model is also equipped with a self-
diagnosis device for the fuel level de-
tection circuit. If a problem is detected
in the fuel level detection circuit, the fol-
lowing cycle will be repeated until the
malfunction is corrected: The fuel level
warning light will flash eight times, and
then go off for 3.0 seconds. If this oc-
curs, have a Yamaha dealer check the
vehicle.
EAU47752
Coolant temperature warning
light “ ”
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 turning the key to
“ON”. The warning light should come
on for a few seconds, and then go off.

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 3-21 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.
