The multi-function meter unit is
equipped with the following:●
a speedometer
●
a tachometer
●
an odometer
●
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 self-diagnosis device
●
a display brightness and shift tim-
ing indicator light control mode
TIP●
Be sure to turn the key to “ON” be-
fore using the “SELECT” and “RE-
SET” buttons, except for setting
the display brightness and shift
timing indicator light control mode.

For the U.K. only: To switch the
speedometer and odometer/trip-
meter displays between kilometers
and miles, press the “SELECT”
button for at least one second.
Tachometer
The 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 will sweep once
across the r/min range and then return
to zero r/min in order to test the electri-
cal circuit.

WARNING
EWA15151
Gasoline is poisonous and can
cause injury or death. Handle gaso-
line with care. Never siphon gaso-
line by mouth. If you should swallow
some gasoline or inhale a lot of gas-
oline vapor, or get some gasoline in
your eyes, see your doctor immedi- ately. If gasoline spills on your skin,
wash with soap and water. If gaso-
line spills on your clothing, change
your clothes.

NOTICE
ECA11400
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 gaso-
line with a research octane number of
95 or higher. If knocking (or pinging) oc-
curs, use a gasoline of a different
brand. Use of unleaded fuel will extend
spark plug life and reduce maintenance
costs.
