3Self-d
iagnosis device
This model is equipped with a self-di-
agnosis device for various electrical
circuits. If a problem is detected in any
of those circuits, the engine trouble
warning light will come on and the in-
formation display will indicate an error
code.
If the information 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. If a problem is detected in the immobi-
lizer system circuits, the immobilizer
system indicator light will flash and the
information display will indicate an er-
ror code when the key is turned to
“ON”.
TIPIf the information display indicates er-
ror code 52, this could be caused by
transponder interference. If this error
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.

TIPThe ABS performs a self-diagno-
sis test each time the vehicle first
starts off after the key is turned to
“ON” and the vehicle has traveled
at a speed of 10 km/h (6 mi/h) or
higher. During this test, a “click-
ing” noise can be heard from un-
der the seat, and if the brake lever
or brake pedal is even slightly ap-
plied, a vibration can be felt at the
lever and pedal, but these do not
indicate a malfunction.
 This ABS has a test mode which
allows the owner to experience
the pulsation at the brake lever or
brake pedal when the ABS is op-
erating. However, special tools are
required, so please consult your
Yamaha dealer.NOTICE
ECA16831

wise, the ma gnetic rotors equippe d

EAU58952
Traction control systemThe traction control system helps
maintain traction when accelerating on
slippery surfaces, such as unpaved or
wet roads. If sensors detect that the
rear wheel is starting to slip (uncon-
trolled spinning), the traction control
system assists by regulating engine
power as needed until traction is re-
stored. The traction control system in-
dicator/warning light flashes to let the
rider know that traction control has en-
gaged.TIPThe rider may also notice slight chang-
es in engine and exhaust sounds when
the traction control system is engaged.
WARNING
EWA15432
The traction control system is not a
su bstitute for rid ing appropriately
for the con ditions. Traction control
cannot prevent loss of traction due
to excessive speed when entering
turns, when acceleratin g har d at a
sharp lean an gle, or while brakin g,
an d cannot prevent front wheel slip-

g. As with any motorcycle, ap-
proach surfaces that may be
slippery with caution an d avoi d es-
pecially slippery surfaces.
There are three traction control system
modes:  “TCS 1”: Default mode
 “TCS 2”: Sporty mode
This mode decreases traction
control system assist, allowing the
rear wheel to spin more freely than
“TCS 1”.
 “TCS OFF”: The traction control
system is turned off. The system
may also be automatically dis-
abled in some riding conditions
(see “Resetting” on page 3-28).
When the key is turned to “ON”, the
traction control system is enabled and
“TCS 1” is displayed in the multi-func-
tion meter.
The traction control system mode can
be changed only when the key is in the
“ON” position and the vehicle is not
moving.
TIPUse the mode “TCS OFF” to help free
the rear wheel if the motorcycle gets
stuck in mud, sand, or other soft sur-
faces.NOTICE
ECA16801
Use only the specifie d tires. (See
pa ge 6-18.) Usin g different sized
tires will prevent the traction control
system from controllin g tire rotation

3To reset the traction control system:
Turn the key to “OFF”. Wait at least one
second, then turn the key back to
“ON”. The traction control system indi-
cator/warning light should go off and
the system will be enabled. The engine
trouble warning light should go off after
the motorcycle reaches at least 20
km/h (12 mi/h). If the traction control
system indicator/warning light or the
engine trouble warning light remains
on after resetting, the motorcycle may
still be ridden; however, have a
Yamaha dealer check the motorcycle as soon as possible.

FuelMake sure there is sufficient gasoline in
the tank.
WARNING
EWA10882
Gasoline and gasoline vapors are
extremely flammab le. To avoid fires
an d explosions an d to re duce the
risk of injury when refuelin g, follow
these 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. 3. Wipe up any spilled fuel immedi-
ately. NOTICE: Immediately
wipe off spille d fuel with a clean,
d ry, soft cloth, since fuel may
d eteriorate painte d surfaces or
plastic parts.

4. Be sure to securely close the fuel tank cap.
