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.
NOTICE

TIP
For radiator-fan-equipped vehi-
cles, the radiator fan(s) automati-

EAU59110Engine trou ble warnin g lig ht “ ”
This warning light comes on or flashes
if a problem is detected in the electrical
circuit monitoring the engine. If this oc-
curs, have a Yamaha dealer check the
self-diagnosis system. (See page 3-9
for an explanation of the self-diagnosis
device.)
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
The engine trouble warning light will
come on while the start switch is
pushed, but this does not indicate a
malfunction.

EAU38626Immo bilizer system in dicator li ght
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 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

Coolant temperature
display
The coolant temperature display indi-
cates the temperature of the coolant
from 40 °C to 134 °C in 1 °C incre-
ments.
If the coolant temperature is 117 °C–
134 °C, the coolant temperature dis-
play flashes and the coolant tempera-
ture warning light comes on. If this
occurs, reduce the load on the engine
by riding at a moderate pace, at low
rpm, until the coolant temperature
goes down. If the temperature does
not go down, stop the engine. (See
page 6-46.)
If the message “HI” flashes, and the
warning light is on, stop the engine and
let it cool. (See page 6-46.)
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.
NOTICE
ECA10022

Self-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 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.
If a problem is detected in the immobi-
lizer system circuits, the immobilizer
system indicator light will flash and the
display will indicate an error code.
TIP
If 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.

TIP
Make 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 and
try 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.

Fuel tank cap
To 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
released and the fuel tank cap can be
opened.
To close the fuel tank cap
1. Push the fuel tank cap into posi- tion with the key inserted in the
lock.
2. Turn the key counterclockwise to the original position, remove it,
and then close the lock cover.
TIP
The fuel tank cap cannot be closed un-
less the key is in the lock. In addition,
the key cannot be removed if the cap is
not properly closed and locked.
WARNING

Make sure that the fuel tank cap is
properly closed after filling fuel.

Fuel
Make sure there is sufficient gasoline in
the tank.
WARNING
EWA10882
Gasoline an d gasoline vapors are
extremely flamma ble. To avoi d fires
an d explosions an d to re duce the
risk of injury when refueling , 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.1. Fuel tank cap lock cover

Gasoline is poisonous an d can cau-
se injury or death. Han dle gasoline
with care. Never siphon gasoline by
mouth. If you shoul d swallow some
g asoline or inhale a lot of gasoline
vapor, or g et some gasoline in your
eyes, see your d octor immediately. If

EAU49743
NOTICE
ECA11401
Use only unlea ded g asoline. The use

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)
occurs, use a gasoline of a different
brand or premium unleaded fuel. Use
of unleaded fuel will extend spark plug
life and reduce maintenance costs.
Gasohol
There are two types of gasohol: gaso-
hol containing ethanol and that con-
taining methanol. Gasohol containing
ethanol can be used if the ethanol con-
tent does not exceed 10% (E10). Gas-
ohol containing methanol is not
recommended by Yamaha because it
can cause damage to the fuel system
or vehicle performance problems.
Recommen
ded fuel:
Regular unleaded gasoline (Gasohol
[E10] acceptable)
Fuel tank capacity: 17 L (4.5 US gal, 3.7 Imp.gal)
Fuel reserve amount:
3.2 L (0.84 US gal, 0.70 Imp.gal)
