Each indicator light will flash when its
corresponding turn signal lights are
flashing.
EAU11081High beam indicator light “ ”
This indicator light comes on when the
high beam of the headlight is switched
on.
EAU11354Fuel level warning light “ ”
This warning light comes on when the
fuel level drops below approximately
2.5 L (0.66 US gal, 0.55 Imp.gal). When
this occurs, refuel as soon as possible.
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.

This warning light comes on if an elec-
trical circuit monitoring the engine is
not working correctly. If this occurs,
have a Yamaha dealer check the self-
diagnosis system.
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
This warning light will come on when

switch is pushed, but this does not in-
dicate a malfunction.
EAUM3381ABS warning light “ ” (for ABS
models)
In normal operation, the ABS warning
light comes on when the key is turned
to “ON”, and goes off after traveling at
a speed of 10 km/h (6 mi/h) or higher.

Multi-function meter unit
WARNING
EWA12423
Be sure to stop the vehicle before
making any setting changes to the
multi-function meter unit. Changing
settings while riding can distract the
operator and increase the risk of an
accident.
The multi-function meter unit is
equipped with the following:
a speedometer
a tachometer
a fuel meter
a clock
an odometer and tripmeter display
a multi-function display
a coolant temperature meter
TIP
Be sure to turn the key to “ON” be-
fore using the “SELECT”, “RE-
SET”, “TRIP” and “INFO” buttons.When the key is turned to “ON”, all
display segments of the multi-
function meter unit will momen-
tarily appear in order to test the
electrical circuit. The speedome-
ter and odometer will then perform
a display check and a welcome
message will scroll across the
multi-function display.
For the UK, traveling speed, dis-
tance traveled, and fuel consump-
tion measurements can be
displayed in kilometer or mileage
based units. To switch between
miles and kilometers; hold the
“SELECT” switch pushed, turn the
main switch to “ON”, and keep the
“SELECT” switch pushed for an
additional 8 seconds.
For other countries, traveling
speed, distance traveled and fuel
consumption measurements are
displayed in kilometer base units.

3 The electric tachometer allows the rid-
er to monitor the engine speed and
keep it within the ideal power range.
NOTICE
ECAM1150
Do not operate the engine in the ta-
chometer high-rpm zone.
High-rpm zone: 10000 r/min and
above
Fuel meter
With the key in the “ON” position, the
fuel meter indicates the amount of fuel
in the fuel tank. The display segments
of the fuel meter disappear towards
“E” (Empty) as the fuel level decreases.
When the fuel level reaches the bottom
segment near “E”, the bottom segment
will flash. Refuel as soon as possible.
Clock
To set the clock:
1. Push the “SELECT” button for 3
seconds, and the hour digits will
start flashing.
2. Use the “SELECT” button to set
the hours.3. Push the “SELECT” button for 3
seconds, and the minute digits will
start flashing.
4. Use the “SELECT” button to set
the minutes.
5. Push the “SELECT” button for 3
seconds to complete setting the
clock.
Odometer and tripmeter display
The odometer and tripmeter display is
equipped with the following:
a tripmeter (which shows the dis-
tance traveled since last set to ze-
ro)
a time tripmeter (which shows the
elapsed riding time since last set
to zero)
a fuel reserve tripmeter (which
shows the distance traveled since
the fuel level warning light came
on)
an oil change tripmeter (which
shows the distance traveled since
the last engine oil change)
a V-belt replacement tripmeter
(which shows the distance trav-
eled since the last V-belt replace-
ment)

3Pushing the “TRIP” button switches
the display between the odometer
mode and the various tripmeter modes
in the following order:
Odo (odometer) → Trip (tripmeter) →
Trip Time (time tripmeter) → Oil (oil
change tripmeter) → V-Belt (v-belt re-
placement tripmeter) → Odo (odome-
ter)
When approximately 2.5 L (0.66 US
gal, 0.55 Imp.gal) of fuel remains in the
fuel tank, the display will automatically
change to the fuel reserve tripmeter
mode “F Trip” and start counting the
distance traveled from that point. In
that case, pushing the “TRIP” button
switches the display between the vari-
ous tripmeter and odometer modes in
the following order:
Odo → Trip → Trip Time → F Trip (fuel
reserve tripmeter) → Oil Trip → V-Belt
Trip → Odo
Oil Trip and V-Belt Trip display total
distance traveled from the first run or
when the last reset was done.
To reset a tripmeter, select it by push-
ing the “TRIP” button until “Trip, Trip
Time, F Trip” is displayed. While “Trip,
Trip Time, F Trip” is displayed, push
the “TRIP” button for 3 seconds. If you
do not reset the fuel reserve tripmeter
manually, it will reset itself automatical-
ly and the display will return to the prior
mode after refueling and traveling 5 km
(3 mi).
TIP
The display cannot be changed back

Oil change indicator “Oil”
This indicator flashes at the initial 1000
km (600 mi), then at 5000 km (3000 mi)
and every 6000 km (3500 mi) thereafter
to indicate that the engine oil should be
changed.
After changing the engine oil, reset the
oil change indicator.
To reset the oil change indicator
1. Turn the key to “ON”.
2. Push the “TRIP” button until “Oil”
(oil change tripmeter) is displayed
in the odometer and trip meter dis-
play. While “Oil” is displayed, push
the “RESET” button for at least 3
seconds. The oil change tripmeter
value will flash.
3. Hold the “RESET” button pushed
for 15 to 20 seconds.

display between the ambient tempera-
ture display “Air”, the battery voltage,
the average fuel consumption mode
“Ave/Cons__._km/L” or “Ave/Cons__._ L/100 km”, the instantaneous fuel
consumption mode “Cons__._km/L”
or “Cons__._L/100 km”, and the aver-
age speed “Ave” in the following order:
Air → → Ave/Cons_ _._ km/L or
L/100 km → Cons__._km/L or L/100
km → Ave → Air
For the UK only:
