Immobilizer systemThis vehicle is equipped with an immo-
bilizer system to help prevent theft by
re-registering codes in the standard
keys. This system consists of the fol-
lowing:
a code re-registering key (with a
red bow)

two standard keys (with a black
bow) that can be re-registered with
new codes

a transponder (which is installed in
the code re-registering key)

an immobilizer unit

an ECU

an immobilizer system indicator light (See page 4-7.)
The key with the red bow is used to reg-
ister codes in each standard key. Since
re-registering is a difficult process, take
the vehicle along with all three keys to
a Yamaha dealer to have them re-reg-
istered. Do not use the key with the red
bow for driving. It should only be used
for re-registering the standard keys. Al-
ways use a standard key for driving.
NOTICE
ECA11822

DO NOT LOSE THE CODE
RE-REGISTERING KEY! CON-
TACT YOUR DEALER IMMEDI-
ATELY IF IT IS LOST! If the code
re-registering key is lost, regis-
tering new codes in the stan-
dard keys is impossible. The
standard keys can still be used
to start the vehicle, however if
code re-registering is required
(i.e., if a new standard key is
made or all keys are lost) the en-
tire immobilizer system must be
replaced. Therefore, it is highly
recommended to use either
standard key and keep the code
re-registering key in a safe place.

Do not submerse any key in wa-
ter.

Do not expose any key to exces-
sively high temperatures.

Do not place any key close to
magnets (this includes, but not
limited to, products such as
speakers, etc.).

Do not place items that transmit
electrical signals close to any
key.

Do not place heavy items on any
key.

Do not grind any key or alter its
shape.

Do not disassemble the plastic
part of any key.

Do not put two keys of any im-
mobilizer system on the same
key ring.

Keep the standard keys as well
as keys of other immobilizer
systems away from this vehi-
cle’s code re-registering key.

Keep other immobilizer system
keys away from the main switch
as they may cause signal inter-

Hazard switch “ ”
With the key in the “ON” or “ ” posi-
tion, use this switch to turn on the haz-
ard lights (simultaneous flashing of all
turn signal lights).
The hazard lights are used in case of
an emergency or to warn other drivers
when your vehicle is stopped where it
might be a traffic hazard.NOTICE
ECA10062
Do not use the hazard lights for an
extended length of time with the en-
gine not running, otherwise the bat-tery may discharge.

Oil level warning light “ ”
This warning light comes on if the en-
gine oil level is low.
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 after
confirming that the oil level is correct
(see page 7-12), have a Yamaha deal-
er check the vehicle.TIP

Traction control system indicator
light “ ”
This indicator light flashes when trac-
tion control has engaged. If the traction
control system is turned off, the indica-
tor light will come on.
When the vehicle is turned on, the light
will perform a circuit check (come on for
a few seconds and then go off). If the
light does not come on during the circuit
check, or if the light remains on,
Yamaha dealer check the vehicle.
EAU76411
Quick shift indicator light “ ”
When the key is turned to “ON”, the
quick shift system (page 3-3) turns on
and this indicator light comes on.
If a problem is detected in the quick
shift system, this light will turn off and
the quick shift system will be unavail-
able. Have a Yamaha dealer check the
vehicle.
EAU73120
Immobilizer system indicator light
“”
When the key is turned to “OFF” and 30
seconds have passed, the indicator light will flash steadily to indicate the im-
mobilizer system is enabled. After 24
hours have passed, the indicator light
will stop flashing, however the immobi-
lizer system is still enabled.
The electrical circuit of the indicator
light can be checked by turning the key
to “ON”. The indicator light should
come on for a few seconds, and then
go off.
If the indicator light does not come on
initially when the key is turned to “ON”,
if the indicator light remains on, or if the
indicator light flashes in a pattern (if a
problem is detected in the immobilizer
system, the immobilizer system indica-
tor light will flash in a pattern), have a
Yamaha dealer check the vehicle.
TIPIf the immobilizer system indicator light
flashes in the pattern, slowly 5 times
then quickly 2 time
s, this could be
caused by transponder interference. Ifthis occurs, try the following.
1. Make sure there are no other im- mobilizer keys close to the main
switch. Other immobilizer system
keys may cause signal interfer- ence and prevent the engine from
starting.
2. Use the code re-registering key to start the engine.
3. If the engine starts, turn it off, and try starting the engine with the
standard keys.
4. If one or both of the standard keys do not start the engine, take the
vehicle and all 3 keys to a Yamaha
dealer to have the standard keys
re-registered.

TIPThis model is equipped with:
a lean angle sensor to stop the en-
gine in case of a turnover. In this
case, the engine trouble warning
light will come on, but this is not a
malfunction. Turn the key to “OFF”
and then to “ON” to turn off the
warning light. Failing to do so will
prevent the engine from starting
even though the engine will crank
when pushing the start switch.

an engine auto-stop system. The
engine stops automatically if left
idling for 20 minutes. If the engine
stops, simply push the start switchto restart the engine.
