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 dealer
check the electrical circuit.
If the traction control system becomes
disabled while riding, “TCS OFF” is
displayed, and the indicator/warning
light and engine trouble warning light
come on. (See page 3-27 for an expla-
nation of the traction control system.) Reset the traction control system and
the lights by following the procedures
under “Resetting” on page 3-28.

li g ht “ ”
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
circuits. (See page 3-21 for an expla-
nation of the self-diagnosis device.)

Cruise control systemThis model is equipped with a cruise
control system designed to maintain a
set cruising speed.
The cruise control system operates
only when riding in 3rd gear at speeds
between about 50 km/h (31 mi/h) and
100 km/h (62 mi/h), 4th gear at speeds
between about 50 km/h (31 mi/h) and
150 km/h (93 mi/h), or 5th or 6th gear
at speeds between about 50 km/h (31
mi/h) and 180 km/h (112 mi/h).
WARNING
EWA16341
 Improper use of the cruise con-
trol system may result in loss of
control, which coul d lea d to an
acci dent. Do not activate the
cruise control system in heavy
traffic, poor weather con ditions,
or amon g win din g, slippery,
hilly, rou gh or g ravel roa ds.
 When travelin g uphill or d own-
hill, the cruise control system
may not be ab le to maintain the
set cruising speed.

3stalls, or the sidestand is lowered, then
the “ ” indicator light will go off (the
“SET” indicator light will not flash).
If the cruise control system is automat-
ically deactivated, please stop and
confirm that your vehicle is in good op-
erating condition.
Before using the cruise control system
again, activate it using the power
switch.
TIPIn some cases, the cruise control sys-
tem may not be able to maintain the set
cruising speed when the vehicle is
traveling uphill or downhill.
 When the vehicle is traveling up-
hill, the actual traveling speed may
become lower than the set cruis-
ing speed. If this occurs, acceler-
ate to the desired traveling speed
using the throttle.
 When the vehicle is traveling
downhill, the actual traveling
speed may become higher than
the set cruising speed. If this oc-
curs, the setting switch cannot be
used to adjust the set cruising
speed. To reduce the traveling speed, apply the brakes. When
the brakes are applied, the cruise
control system will become deac-
tivated.
Self-
dia gnosis device
The cruise control system will also be-
come deactivated when an irregularity
with any of the vehicle systems is de-
tected. The “SET” indicator light will go
off and the “ ” indicator light will
flash. You will not be able to use the
cruise control system while the engine trouble warning light is on, or while the
cruise control system is malfunction-
ing.

The electric tachometer allows the rid-
er to monitor the engine speed and
keep it within the ideal power range.
When the key is turned to “ON”, the ta-
chometer will sweep across the r/min
range and then return to zero r/min in
order to test the electrical circuit.

Fuel meter
The fuel meter indicates the amount of
fuel in the fuel tank. The display seg-
ments of the fuel meter disappear to-
wards “E” (Empty) as the fuel level
decreases. When the last segment
starts flashing, refuel as soon as possi-
ble.
When the key is turned to “ON”, all dis-
play segments come on once in order
to test the electrical circuit.TIPThis fuel meter is equipped with a self-
diagnosis system. If a problem is de-
tected in the electrical circuit, all dis- play segments start flashing. If this
occurs, have a Yamaha dealer check
the electrical circuit.
Eco in
dicator
This indicator comes on when the vehi-
cle is being operated in an environ-
mentally friendly, fuel-efficient manner.
The indicator goes off when the vehicle
is stopped.TIPConsider the following tips to reduce
fuel consumption:  Avoid high engine speeds during
acceleration.
 Travel at a constant speed.

selected information display can be
switched by pushing the select switch.
The following items are shown in the
information displays:  an odometer display
 tripmeter displays
 a fuel reserve tripmeter display
 an estimated traveling range dis-
play
 an elapsed time display

 a coolant temperature display 
an average fuel consumption dis-
play
 an instantaneous fuel consump-
tion display
The items shown in each information

Odometer display:
Tripmeter displays:“TRIP-1” and “TRIP-2” show the dis-
tance traveled since they were last set
to zero. When approximately 3.9 L (1.03 US
gal, 0.86 Imp.gal) of fuel remains in the
fuel tank, the last segment of the fuel
meter starts flashing. In addition, the
information display will automatically
change to the fuel reserve tripmeter
mode “TRIP-F” and start counting the
distance traveled from that point.
In that case, pushing the select switch
switches the display between the vari-
ous information displays in the follow-
ing order;
TRIP-F
→ Display–1 → Display–2 →
Display–3 → TRIP-F

Estimated traveling range display:
The distance that can be traveled with
the remaining fuel in the fuel tank under
the current riding conditions is shown.
Elapsed time display:The time that has elapsed since the
key was turned to “ON” is shown. The
maximum time that can be shown is
99:59. This display is automatically reset
when the key is turned to “OFF”.
TIPThere are also “TIME–2” and “TIME–3”
elapsed time displays, but they cannot
be set to the information display. See
“Setting mode” on page 3-16 for de-
tailed information.Air intake temperature display:The air intake temperature display indi-
cates the temperature of the air drawn
into the air filter case.
This display shows the air intake tem-
perature from –9 °C to 93 °C in 1 °C in-
crements. The temperature displayed
may vary from the ambient tempera-
ture.TIP
–9 °C will be displayed even if the
air intake temperature falls below
–9 °C. 
The accuracy of the temperature
reading may be affected when rid-
ing slowly [approximately under
20 km/h (12.5 mi/h)] or when
stopped at traffic signals, railroad
crossings, etc.
Coolant temperature display:The coolant temperature display indi-
cates the temperature of the coolant.
The coolant temperature varies with
changes in the weather and engine
load.
If the message “Hi” flashes, stop the
vehicle, then stop the engine, and let
the engine cool. (See page 6-39.)
