Averag e fuel consumption d isplay
This function calculates the average
fuel consumption since it was last re-
set.
The average fuel consumption can be
displayed as either “Consump-
tion/Average_ _._ km/L”, “Consump-
tion/Average_ _._ L/100 km” or
“Consumption/Average_ _ _._ MPG”
(for the UK). z “Consumption/Average_ _._ km/L”:
The average distance that can be
traveled on 1.0 L of fuel is shown.
z “Consumption/Average_ _._ L/100
km”: The average amount of fuel
necessary to travel 100 km is
shown.
z“Consumption/Average_ _ _._ MPG”
(for the UK): The average distance
that can be traveled on 1.0 Imp.gal
of fuel is shown.
To reset the average fuel consumption,
push the “INFO” switch for at least
three seconds.
TIP
After resetting the average fuel con-
sumption, “_ _._” will be shown until
the vehicle has traveled 1 km (0.6 mi).
Instantaneous fuel consumption
display
This function calculates the fuel con-
sumption under current riding condi-
tions.
The instantaneous fuel consumption can
be displayed as either “Consumption_
_._km/L”, “Consumption_ _._L/100 km”
or “Consumption_ _ _._MPG” (for the
UK). z “Consumption_ _._km/L”: The
distance that can be traveled on
1.0 L of fuel under the current rid-
ing conditions is shown.
z “Consumption_ _._L/100 km”: The
amount of fuel necessary to travel
100 km under the current riding
conditions is shown.
z “Consumption_ _ _._MPG” (for the
UK): The distance that can be
traveled on 1.0 Imp.gal of fuel un-
der the current riding conditions is
shown.

TIP
If traveling at speeds under 10 km/h (6
mi/h), “_ _._” is displayed.
Avera ge speed d isplay
The average speed “Average_ _ _kmh”
or “Average_ _ _MPH” (for the UK) is
displayed.
The average speed is the total distance
divided by the total time (with the main
switch in the “ON” position) since the
display was last reset to zero.
This display shows the average speed
since it was last reset.
To reset the average speed display,
select it by pushing the “INFO” switch,
and then push the “INFO” switch for
three seconds.
Warnin g messa ge function
This function displays a warning mes-

“L FUEL” is displayed, refuel as soon
as possible. “H TEMP”: Appears when the top seg-
ment of the coolant temperature meter
starts flashing. If “H TEMP” is dis-
played, stop the vehicle, then stop the
engine, and let the engine cool.
“ICE”: Appears when the icy road

belt replacement indicator “V-Belt”
starts flashing. If “V-BELT SERV” is
displayed, replace the V-belt, and then
reset the V-belt replacement indicator
and V-belt replacement tripmeter.
When there are two or more warnings,
the warning messages are displayed in
the following order:
L FUEL
→ H TEMP → ICE → OIL SERV
→ VBELT SERV → L FUEL

This ABS has a test mode which
allows the owner to experience
the pulsation at the brake levers
when the ABS is operating. How-
ever, special tools are required, so
please consult your Yamaha deal-
er.
NOTICE
ECA20100
Be careful not to damag e the wheel
sensor or wheel sensor rotor; other-
wise, improper performance of the
ABS will result.
EAU78611
Traction control system
The traction control system (TCS)
helps maintain traction when acceler-
ating on slippery surfaces, such as un-
paved or wet roads. If sensors detect
that the rear wheel is starting to slip
(uncontrolled spinning), the traction
control system assists by regulating
engine power until traction is restored.
When traction control has engaged,
the “ ” indicator light will flash. You
may notice changes in engine re-
sponse or exhaust sound.
WARNING
EWA18860
The traction control system is not a
su bstitute for ri din g appropriately
for the con ditions. Traction control
cannot prevent loss of traction d ue
to excessive spee d when enterin g
turns, when acceleratin g har d at a
sharp lean an gle, or while b raking,
an d cannot prevent front wheel slip-
pin g. As with any vehicle, approach
surfaces that may be slippery with
caution an d avoi d especially slip-
pery surfaces.

4 When the vehicle is turned on, traction
control is automatically turned on.
To turn the traction control system off,
use the “INFO” switch to change the
information display to the traction con-
trol system display. Then push the “IN-
FO” switch for three seconds. The
display will show “TCSOFF” , and the
“TCS” indicator light will come on.
TIP
Turn the traction control system off to
help free the rear wheel if the vehicle
gets stuck in mud, sand, or other soft
surfaces.
NOTICE
ECA16801
Use only the specifie
d tires. (See
pa ge 7-19.) Usin g different sized
tires will prevent the traction control
system from controllin g tire rotation
accurately.
Resettin g the traction control sys-
tem
The traction control system will auto-
matically disable under certain condi-
tions; such as when a sensor fault is
detected, or when only one wheel is al-
lowed to rotate for more than a few seconds. Should this happen, the “ ”
indicator light will come on, and possi-
bly the “ ” warning light, too.
TIP
When the vehicle is on the centerstand,
do not rev the engine for an extended
period of time. Otherwise, the traction
control system will automatically dis-
able and need to be reset.
If the traction control system automat-
ically disables, try resetting it as fol-
lows.
1. Stop the vehicle and turn it off completely.
2. Wait a few seconds and then turn the vehicle power on.
3. The “ ” indicator light should turn off and the system be en-
abled.
TIP
If the “ ” indicator light remains on af-
ter resetting, the vehicle may still be
ridden; however, have a Yamaha deal-
er check the vehicle as soon as possi-
ble.
4. Have a Yamaha dealer check thevehicle and turn off the “ ”
warning light.
