The odometer will lock at 999999
and cannot be reset.

The tripmeters will lock at 9999.9but can be manually reset.
Push the “SELECT” button to switch
the display between the instantaneous
fuel consumption mode “km/L” or “L/
100 km”, average fuel consumption
mode “AVE_ _._ km/L” or “AVE_ _._ L/
100 km”, coolant temperature mode
“  C”, air intake temperature mode “Air_
_ C”, odometer mode “ODO”, and trip-
meter modes “TRIP 1” and “TRIP 2” in
the following order:
km/L or L/100 km  AVE_ _._ km/L or
AVE_ _._ L/100 km   C  Air_ _ C

correct, immediately turn the engine
off and have a Yamaha dealer check
the vehicle.
13. Turn the engine off, wait a few min- utes until the oil settles, and then
check the oil level and correct it if
necessary.
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.
EAU20095
To check the coolant level1. Place the vehicle on a level sur- face and hold it in an upright posi-
tion.TIP
The coolant level must be checked
on a cold engine since the level
varies with engine temperature.

Make sure that the vehicle is posi-
tioned straight up when checking
the coolant level. A slight tilt to theside can result in a false reading.
2. Check the coolant level in the cool- ant reservoir.
TIPThe coolant should be between theminimum and maximum level marks. 3. If the coolant is at or below the
minimum level mark, remove the
reservoir cap. WARNING! Re-
move only the coolant reservoir
cap. Never attempt to remove
the radiator cap when the en-
gine is hot.
