_ _ _._ L/100 km” or “AVE _ _ _._ MPG”,
and total fuel used “_ _._” in the follow-
ing order:
ODO → TRIP 1 → TRIP 2 → km/L,
L/100 km or MPG → AVE _ _ _._ km/L,
AVE _ _ _._ L/100 km or AVE _ _ _._
MPG → _ _._ → ODO

the fuel reserve tripmeter “TRIP F” and
start counting the distance traveled
from that point. In this case, push the
“SELECT” button to switch the display
in the following order:
TRIP F → km/L, L/100 km or MPG →
AVE _ _ _._ km/L, AVE _ _ _._ L/100 km
or AVE _ _ _._ MPG → _ _._ → ODO →
TRIP 1 → TRIP 2 → TRIP F
TIP
If you do not reset the fuel reserve trip-
meter manually, after refueling and
traveling 5 km (3 mi), it will reset auto-
matically and disappear from the dis-

WARNING
EWA15152
Gasoline is poisonous and can cau-
se injury or death. Handle gasoline
with care. Never siphon gasoline by
mouth. If you should swallow some
gasoline or inhale a lot of gasoline
vapor, or get some gasoline in your
eyes, see your doctor immediately. If
gasoline spills on your skin, wash
with soap and water. If gasoline
spills on your clothing, change your
clothes.
EAU75320
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.
TIP
This mark identifies the recom-
mended fuel for this vehicle as
specified by European regulation
(EN228).
 Check that gasoline nozzle has
the same identifier when fueling.
Your Yamaha engine has been de-
signed to use premium unleaded gas-
oline with a research octane number of
95 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.
Recommended fuel:
Premium unleaded gasoline (Gaso-
hol [E10] acceptable)
Fuel tank capacity: 17 L (4.5 US gal, 3.7 Imp.gal)
Fuel reserve amount (when the fuel
level warning light comes on): 3.4 L (0.90 US gal, 0.75 Imp.gal)
