Oil level warnin g li ght “ ”
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 rid-
ing 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 detec-
tion 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.

wards “E” (Empty) as the fuel level
decreases. When the last segment and
fuel level warning indicator “ ” start
flashing, refuel as soon as possible.
TIPThis fuel meter is equipped with a self-
diagnosis system. If a problem is de-
tected in the electrical circuit, the fol-
lowing cycle is repeated until the
malfunction is corrected: fuel level seg-
ments and fuel level warning
indicator “ ” flash eight times, then go off for approximately 3 seconds. If this
occurs, have a Yamaha dealer check
the electrical circuit.

e fuel consumption display
The 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
of fuel is shown.
 “AVE_ _._ L/100 km”: The average
amount of fuel necessary to travel
100 km is shown.
 “AVE_ _._ MPG” (for the UK only):
The average distance that can be
traveled on 1.0 Imp.gal of fuel is
shown. To switch between the average fuel

display This display shows the coolant tem-
perature from 40 °C to 116 °C in 1 °C
increments.
If the message “HI” flashes, stop the
vehicle, then stop the engine, and let
the engine cool. (See page 6-45.)
TIP
When the coolant temperature is
below 40 °C, “LO” will be dis-
played.
 The coolant temperature varies
with changes in the weather and
engine load.Air intake temperature display

perature from –9 °C to 99 °C in 1 °C in-
crements.
TIP
–9 °C will be displayed even if the
air intake temperature falls below
–9 °C.
 The air intake temperature may
vary from the ambient tempera-
ture.Bri ghtness control mo de This function allows you to adjust the
brightness of the multi-function meter
unit panel to suit the outside lighting
conditions.

circuits, the engine trouble warning
light will come on and the display will
indicate an error code.
If the display indicates any error codes,
note the code number, and then have
a Yamaha dealer check the vehicle.
The self-diagnosis device also detects
problems in the immobilizer system
circuits.

lizer system circuits, the immobilizer
system indicator light will flash and the
display will indicate an error code.
TIPIf the display indicates error code 52,
this could be caused by transponder
interference. If this error code appears,
try the following.1. Use the code re-registering key to
start the engine.TIPMake sure there are no other immobi-
lizer keys close to the main switch, and
do not keep more than one immobilizer
key on the same key ring! Immobilizer
system keys may cause signal interfer-
ence, which may prevent the engine
from starting.2. If the engine starts, turn it off andtry starting the engine with the
standard keys.
3. If one or both of the standard keys do not start the engine, take the
vehicle, the code re-registering key and both standard keys to a
Yamaha dealer and have the stan-
dard keys re-registered.

sponse in the low- to mid-speed range
compared to mode “STD”.
Mo de “B”
Mode “B” offers response that is
somewhat less sharp compared to
mode “STD” for riding situations that
require especially sensitive throttle op-
eration.
