Setting the traction control system
With the throttle closed, push this
switch down to change from TCS “1” to
TCS “2”. Push up to change from “2” to
“1”.
With the vehicle stopped, push this
switch up for two seconds to turn the
system off. Push down to turn the sys-
tem on.
TIP
The current TCS setting is shown
in the TCS display (page 4-10).

Traction control can be turned on
or off only when the vehicle is
stopped.

When the key is turned to “ON”,
traction control is turned on and set to “1” or “2” (whichever was last
selected).

Turn the traction control system off
to help free the rear wheel if the ve-
hicle gets stuck in mud, sand, orother soft surfaces.
TCS “OFF”
TCS “OFF” turns the traction control
system off.
TCS “1”
TCS “1” minimizes traction control as-
sist.
TCS “2”
TCS “2” maximizes traction control as-
sist; wheel spin is most strongly con-
trolled. The “ ” indicator light flashes when
traction control has engaged. You may
notice slight changes in engine and ex-
haust sounds when the system has en-
gaged.
When the traction control system has
been set to “OFF”, the “ ” indicator
light will come on.
NOTICE
ECA16801
Use only the specified tires. (See
page 7-17.) Using different sized
tires will prevent the traction control
system from controlling tire rotationaccurately.

12 Resetting the traction control sys-
tem
The traction control system will auto-
matically disable when:

the front wheel or rear wheel
comes off the ground while riding.

excessive rear wheel spin is de-
tected while riding.

either wheel is rotated with the key
turned to “ON” (such as when per-
forming maintenance).
If the traction control system is dis-
abled, both the “ ” indicator light and
the “ ” warning light will come on.
Should this occur, try resetting the sys-
tem as follows. 1. Stop the vehicle and turn the key to “OFF”.
2. Wait a few seconds and then turn the key back to “ON”.
3. The “ ” indicator light should turn off and the system be enabled.
TIPIf the “ ” indicator light remains on af-
ter resetting, the vehicle may still be rid-
den; however, have a Yamaha dealercheck the vehicle as soon as possible.
4. Have a Yamaha dealer check the vehicle and turn off the “ ” warn-
ing light.
EAU76401
Quick shift systemThe quick shift system (QS) allows for
full-throttle, clutch lever-less, electroni-
cally-assisted upshifts. When the shift
switch detects motion in the shift pedal
(page 4-14), engine power and drive
torque are momentarily adjusted to al-
low the upshift to occur.TIP
The quick shift system operates
when traveling at least 20 km/h (12
mi/h) with an engine speed of 2300
r/min or higher, and only when ac-
celerating.

It does not operate when the clutchlever is pulled.

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

two standard keys

a transponder (in each key)

an immobilizer unit (on the vehicle)

an ECU (on the vehicle)

a system indicator light (page 4-6)
About the keys
The key with the red bow is used to reg-
ister codes in each standard key. Store the code re-registering key in a safe
place. When necessary, take the vehi-
cle along with all three keys to a
Yamaha dealer to have them re-regis-
tered.
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.
TIP
Keep the standard keys as well as
keys of other immobilizer systems
away from the code re-registering
key.

Keep other immobilizer system
keys away from the main switch as
they may cause signal interfer-ence.
NOTICE
ECA11823
DO NOT LOSE THE CODE RE-REG-
ISTERING KEY! CONTACT YOUR
DEALER IMMEDIATELY IF IT IS
LOST! If the code re-registering key
is lost, the existing standard keys
can still be used to start the vehicle.
However, registering a new stan-
dard key is impossible. If all keyshave been lost or damaged, the en-
tire immobilizer system must be re-
placed. Therefore, handle the keys
carefully.

Do not submerse in water.

Do not expose to high tempera-
tures.

Do not place near magnets.

Do not place near items that
transmit electrical signals.

Do not handle roughly.

Do not grind or alter.

Do not disassemble.

Do not put two keys of any im-
mobilizer system on the samekey ring.
