gine if it is overheatin g.Air intake temperature display
The air intake temperature display indi-
cates the temperature of the air drawn
into the air filter case. Turn the key to
“ON”, and push the “RESET” button to
switch the coolant temperature display
to the air intake temperature display.
Push the “RESET” button again to re-
turn to the coolant temperature dis-
play.
TIP Even if the air intake temperature
is set to be displayed, the coolant
temperature warning light comes
on if the engine overheats.

the coolant temperature is auto-
matically displayed, even if the air
intake temperature was displayed
prior to turning the key to “OFF”.
When the air intake temperature
display is selected, “A” is dis-
played for one second, and then
“A” and the air intake temperature
are displayed.

10. Start the engine, and then let it idle
for several minutes while checking
it for oil leakage. If oil is leaking,
immediately turn the engine off
and check for the cause.
TIPAfter the engine is started, the engine
oil level warning light should go off if
the oil level is sufficient.NOTICE
ECA10402
If the oil level warnin g li ght flickers
or remains on even if the oil level is
correct, imme diately turn the en gine
off an d have a Yamaha d ealer check
the vehicle.11. Turn the engine off, wait a few minutes until the oil settles, and
then check the oil level and cor-
rect it if necessary.
12. Install the cowlings.
EAU20071
CoolantThe coolant level should be checked
before each ride. In addition, the cool-
ant must be changed at the intervals
specified in the periodic maintenance
and lubrication chart.
EAU38174
To check the coolant level 1. Place the vehicle on a level sur- face and hold it in an upright posi-
tion.TIPThe coolant level must be
checked on a cold engine since
the level varies with engine tem-
perature.
Make sure that the vehicle is posi-
tioned straight up when checking
the coolant level. A slight tilt to the
side can result in a false reading.2. Check the coolant level in the
coolant reservoir.TIPThe coolant should be between the
minimum and maximum level marks.
3. If the coolant is at or below theminimum level mark, remove the
coolant reservoir cover by remov-
ing the bolts, remove the coolant
reservoir cap, and then add cool-
ant to the maximum level mark.
WARNING! Remove only the coolant reservoir cap. Never at-
tempt to remove the ra diator
cap when the en gine is hot.
[EWA15162]
NOTICE: If coolant is not
availab le, use distille d water or
soft tap water instead . Do not
use har d water or salt water
since it is harmful to the en gine.

To chan ge the coolant
1. Place the vehicle on a level sur- face and let the engine cool if nec-
essary.
2. Remove cowlings B and C. (See page 6-8.)
3. Place a container under the en- gine to collect the used coolant. 4. Remove the radiator cap.
WARNING! Never attempt to re-
move the ra diator cap when the
en gine is hot.

ty it.
8. After the coolant is completely drained, thoroughly flush the cool-
ing system with clean tap water.
9. Install the coolant reservoir by in- stalling the bolts.
10. Install the coolant drain bolt and its new gasket, and then tighten
the bolt to the specified torque. 11. Pour the recommended coolant
into the reservoir to the maximum
level mark, and then install the
coolant reservoir cap.
12. Pour the recommended coolant into the radiator until it is full.
13. Install the radiator cap, start the engine, let it idle for several min-
utes, and then turn it off.
14. Remove the radiator cap to check the coolant level in the radiator. If
necessary, add sufficient coolant
until it reaches the top of the radi-
ator, and then install the radiator
cap.
