Tachometer

The tachometer shows the engine
speed in crankshaft revolutions per
minute (r/min).
When the vehicle power is turned on,
the tachometer needle will sweep
across the r/min range and return to
zero in order to test the electrical circuit.
NOTICE

Do not operate the engine in the ta-
chometer high-r/min zone.
High-r/min zone: 8250 r/min and
above

Fuel meter
The fuel meter indicates the amount of
fuel in the fuel tank. The display seg-
ments of the fuel meter disappear from
“F” (full) towards “E” (empty) as the fuel
level decreases. When the last seg-
ment starts flashing, refuel as soon as
possible.
TIP
If a problem is detected in the fuel me-
ter electrical circuit,
the fuel meter will
flash repeatedly. Have a Yamaha deal-
er check the vehicle.
Coolant temperature meter
The coolant temperature varies with changes in the weather and engine
load. If the top segment starts flashing,
the information display automatically
changes to “C-TEMP” and “Hi” flashes.
Stop the vehicle and let the engine
cool. (See page 8-35.)
TIP
The information display cannot be
changed while the engine is overheat-
ing.
NOTICE
ECA10022
Do not continue to operate the en-
gine if it is overheating.
Eco indicator
This indicator comes on when the vehi-
cle is being operated in an environmen-
tally friendly, fuel-efficient manner. The
indicator goes off when the vehicle is
stopped.
TIP
Consider the following tips to reduce
fuel consumption:
Avoid high engine speeds during
acceleration.
Travel at a constant speed.

Coolant
The 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.
EAU52024To check the coolant level 1. Place the vehicle on the center- stand.
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 the
side can result in a false reading.
2. Check the coolant level through the check window.
TIP
The coolant should be between the
minimum and maximum level marks.
3. If the coolant is at or below the minimum level mark, remove the
left floorboard mat by pulling it up. 4. Remove the coolant reservoir cov-
er by removing the screw.
5. Remove the coolant reservoir cap, add coolant to the maximum level
mark, and then install the reservoir
cap. WARNING! Remove only
the coolant reservoir cap. Never
attempt to remove the radiator
cap when the engine is
hot.
[EWA15162] NOTICE: If coolant is
not available, use distilled water
or soft tap water instead. Do not
use hard water or salt water
since it is harmful to the engine.
If water has been used instead
of coolant, replace it with cool-
ant as soon as possible, other-
wise the cooling system will not
be protected against frost and
