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 start from “F” (full) and
disappear towards “E” (empty) as the
fuel level decreases. When the fuel lev-
el is low, the fuel pictogram “ ” and
the last segment will flash. Refuel as
soon as possible.
TIP
The fuel meter is equipped with a self-
diagnosis system. If a problem is de-
tected in the fuel tank electrical circuit,
all segments of the fuel meter will flash
repeatedly. If this occurs, have a
Yamaha dealer check the vehicle.
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:
an odometer (which shows the to-
tal distance the vehicle has trav-
eled)
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)

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)
Push the “TRIP” button to switch the
display 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
this case, push the “TRIP” button to
switch the display in the following or-
der:
Odo → Trip → Trip Time → F Trip (fuel
reserve tripmeter) → Oil Trip → V-Belt
Trip → Odo
To reset a standard tripmeter (not oil
change or V-belt change tripmeter),
select it by pushing the “TRIP” button
until “Trip”, “Trip Time”, “F Trip” is dis-
played. 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 automatically and disappear after
refueling and traveling 5 km (3 mi).
TIP
The display cannot be changed
back to “F Trip” after it has been
reset.
The tripmeter will reset and con-
tinue counting after 9999.9 is
reached.
The odometer will lock at 999999
and cannot be reset.
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,
and then push the “RESET” but-
ton for 3 seconds. The oil change
tripmeter value will flash.
3. Hold the “RESET” button pushed
for 15 to 20 seconds.

4. Release the “RESET” button, and
the oil trip value will reset to zero.
TIP
If the engine oil is changed before the
oil change indicator comes on (i.e. be-
fore the periodic oil change interval has
been reached), the indicator must be
reset after the oil change for the next
periodic oil change to be indicated at
the correct time. To reset the oil
change indicator before the periodic oil
change interval has been reached, fol-
low the above procedure.
The electrical circuit of the indicator
can be checked according to the fol-
lowing procedure.

2. Check that the oil change indica-
tor comes on for a few seconds
and then goes off.
3. If the oil change indicator does not
come on, have a Yamaha dealer
check the electrical circuit.
V-belt replacement indicator “V-
Belt”
This indicator flashes every 18000 km
(10500 mi) when the V-belt needs to be
replaced. After changing the V-belt, re-
set the V-belt replacement indicator.To reset the V-belt replacement indi-
cator
1. Turn the key to “ON”.
2. Push the “TRIP” button until “V-
Belt” (V-belt replacement tripme-
ter) is displayed, and then push
the “RESET” button for 3 sec-
onds. The V-belt replacement trip-
meter value will flash.
3. Hold the “RESET” button pushed
for 15 to 20 seconds.
4. Release the “RESET” button, and
the V-belt trip value will reset to
zero.

When a vehicle irregularity, road or ser-
vice condition has been detected, in
addition to any corresponding warning
lights or indicators, the following warn-
ing messages will display accordingly.

Coolant temperature meter
This meter indicates the temperature
of the coolant, and thereby the engine.
The coolant temperature varies with
changes in the weather and engine
load. If the “H” segment and the cool-
ant temperature warning indicator start
flashing, stop the vehicle and let the
engine cool.

Fuel
Make 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, 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 spilled fuel with a clean,
dry, soft cloth, since fuel may
deteriorate painted surfaces or
plastic parts.
[ECA10072]
4. Be sure to securely close the fuel
tank cap.
WARNING
EWA15152
Gasoline is poisonous and can
cause injury or death. Handle gaso-
line with care. Never siphon gasoline
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.
EAU54602
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 premium unleaded gas-
oline with a research octane number of

Recommended fuel:
Premium unleaded gasoline (Gaso-
hol (E10) acceptable)
Fuel tank capacity:
13.2 L (3.48 US gal, 2.90 Imp.gal)
Fuel reserve amount (when the fuel
level warning light comes on):
2.5 L (0.66 US gal, 0.55 Imp.gal)

395 or higher. If knocking (or pinging)
occurs, use a gasoline of a different
brand. Use of unleaded fuel will extend
spark plug life and reduce mainte-
nance 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.
EAU13447
Catalytic converters
This vehicle is equipped with catalytic
converters in the exhaust system.
WARNING
EWA10863
The exhaust system is hot after op-
eration. To prevent a fire hazard or
burns:
Do not park the vehicle near
possible fire hazards such as
grass or other materials that
easily burn.
Park the vehicle in a place
where pedestrians or children
are not likely to touch the hot
exhaust system.
Make sure that the exhaust sys-
tem has cooled down before
doing any maintenance work.
Do not allow the engine to idle
more than a few minutes. Long
idling can cause a build-up of
heat.
NOTICE
ECA10702
Use only unleaded gasoline. The use
of leaded gasoline will cause unre-
pairable damage to the catalytic
converter.

Ignition circuit cut-off system
The ignition circuit cut-off system
(comprising the sidestand switch and
brake light switches) has the following
functions.
It prevents starting when the side-
stand is up, but neither brake is
applied.
It prevents starting when either
brake is applied, but the sidestand
is still down.
It cuts the running engine when
the sidestand is moved down.
Periodically check the operation of the
ignition circuit cut-off system accord-
ing to the following procedure.
