Do not continue to operate the en-gine if it is overheating.TIP
For radiator-fan-equipped vehi-
cles, the radiator fan(s) automati-
cally switch on or off according to
the coolant temperature in the ra-
diator.
If the engine overheats, see page
6-33 for further instructions.

Multi-function display
WARNING
EWA14432
Be sure to stop the vehicle before
making any setting changes to the
multi-function display. Changing
settings while riding can distract the
operator and increase the risk of anaccident.
The multi-function display is equippedwith the following:
a speedometer
an odometer
a tripmeter (which shows the dis-
tance traveled since it was last set
to zero)
an oil change tripmeter (which
shows the distanc
e traveled since
the last engine oil change)
an oil change indicator (which
flashes when the engine oil should
be changed)
a clock
TIPBe sure to turn the key to “ON” before
using the “SELECT” and “RESET” but-tons.
Odometer, tripmeter and oil change

Pushing the “SELECT” button switches
the display among the odometer mode
“ODO”, the tripmeter mode “TRIP” and
the oil change tripmeter “OIL

ha dealer check the multi-function dis-play.
OdometerTIPFor the U.K.: The odometer and tripme-
ter units can be switched from kilome-
ters to miles by pushing the “SELECT”button for 1 second.
Tripmeter
To reset the tripmeter, select it by push-
ing the “SELECT” button until “TRIP” isdisplayed, and then push the “RESET”
button for 1 second.
Oil change tripmeter
To reset the oil change tripmeter, select
it by pushing the “SELECT” button until
the oil change tripmeter is displayed,
and then push the “RESET” button for
3 seconds.
Push the “SELECT” button again to
start the oil change tripmeter; the dis-

Oil change indicator “OIL
CHANGE”
This indicator flashes at the initial 1000
km (600 mi), then at every 3000 km
(1800 mi) thereafter to indicate that the
engine oil should be changed.
After changing the engine oil, reset the
oil change tripmeter.
If the engine oil is changed before the
oil change indicator flashes (i.e. before
the periodic oil change interval has
been reached), the oil change tripmeter
must be reset after the oil change for
the next periodic oil change to be indi-
cated at the correct time.1. Odometer

Fuel tank capTo open the fuel tank cap
Open the fuel tank cap lock cover, in-
sert the key into the lock, and then turn
it 1/4 turn clockwise. The lock will be re-
leased and the fuel tank cap can be
opened.
To close the fuel tank cap1. Push the fuel tank cap into position with the key inserted in the lock.
2. Turn the key counterclockwise to the original position, remove it, and
then close the lock cover.
TIPThe fuel tank cap cannot be closed un-
less the key is in the lock. In addition,
the key cannot be removed if the cap isnot properly closed and locked.
WARNING
EWA11092
Make sure that the fuel tank cap is
properly closed after filling fuel.Leaking fuel is a fire hazard.
EAU13222
FuelMake sure there is sufficient gasoline in
the tank.
WARNING
EWA10882
Gasoline and gasoline vapors are
extremely flammable. To avoid fires
and explosions and to reduce the
risk of injury when refueling, followthese instructions.
1. Before refueling, turn off the en- gine and be sure that no one is sit-
ting on the vehicle. Never refuel
while smoking, or while in the vi-
cinity of sparks, open flames, or
other sources of ignition such as
the pilot lights of water heaters and
clothes dryers.
2. Do not overfill the fuel tank. When refueling, be sure to insert the
pump nozzle into the fuel tank filler
hole. Stop filling when the fuel
reaches the bottom of the filler
tube. Because fuel expands when
it heats up, heat from the engine or
the sun can cause fuel to spill out
of the fuel tank.

WARNING
EWA15152
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.
EAU33523
NOTICE
ECA11401
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 regular 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
or premium unleaded fuel. Use of un-
leaded fuel will extend spark plug life
and reduce maintenance costs.
