Oil chan
ge tripmeter “Oil Trip”
The oil change tripmeter shows the
distance traveled since the oil was last
changed.
The oil change indicator “OIL” flashes
at the initial 1000 km (600 mi), then at
4000 km (2400 mi) and every 5000 km
(3000 mi) thereafter to indicate that the
engine oil should be changed.
After changing the engine oil, reset the
oil change indicator and the oil change
tripmeter. To reset them both, select
the oil change tripmeter, and then push
the “TRIP” switch for three seconds.
While the oil change tripmeter is flash-
ing, push the “TRIP” switch for 15 to 20
seconds. Release the “TRIP” switch,
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 oil change tripmeter
must be reset for the oil change indica-
tor to come on at the correct time.
V- belt replacement tripmeter “V-
Belt Trip”
The V-belt replacement tripmeter
shows the distance traveled since the
V-belt was last replaced.
The V-belt replacement indicator “V-
Belt” will flash every 20000 km (12000
mi) to indicate that the V-belt should be
replaced.
After replacing the V-belt, reset the V-
belt replacement indicator and the V-
belt replacement tripmeter. To reset
them both, select the V-belt replace-
ment tripmeter, and then push the
“TRIP” switch for three seconds.
While the V-belt replacement tripmeter
is flashing, push the “TRIP” switch for
15 to 20 seconds. Release the “TRIP”
switch, and the V-belt trip value will re-
set to zero.
TIP
If the V-belt is replaced before the V-
belt replacement indicator comes on
(i.e., before the periodic V-belt replace-
ment interval has been reached), the V-
belt replacement tripmeter must be re-
set for the V-belt replacement indicator
to come on at the correct time.

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.

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

Warnin g messa ge function
This function displays a warning mes-
sage corresponding to the current
warning.
“L FUEL”: Appears when the last seg-

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
warning indicator “ ” starts flashing. If
“ICE” is displayed, be careful of icy
roads.
“OIL SERV”: Appears when the oil
change indicator “OIL” starts flashing.
If “OIL SERV” is displayed, change the
engine oil, and then reset the oil chan-
ge indicator and oil change tripmeter.
“V-BELT SERV”: Appears when the V-
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:

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
This model is equipped with a lean an-
gle sensor to stop the engine in case of
a turnover. In this case, the engine
trouble warning light will come on but
this is not a malfunction. Before re-
starting the engine, turn the main
switch off and then back on to reset the
engine trouble warning light. Failing to
do so will prevent the engine from
starting even though the engine will
crank when pushing the start switch.
