light “ ”
This warning light comes on if a prob-
lem is detected in the electronically ad-
justable suspension system.

then go off. If the light does not come
on, or if the light remains on, have a
Yamaha dealer check the vehicle.
Transponder interference
If the immobilizer system indicator light
flashes in the pattern, slowly 5 times
then quickly 2 times, this could be
caused by transponder interference. If
this occurs, try the following.
1. Make sure there are no other im-
mobilizer keys close to the main
switch.
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

to use the resume function until a new
cruising speed has been set.
Automatic deactivation of the cruise
control system
The cruise control system for this mod-
el is electronically controlled and is
linked with the other control systems.
The cruise control system will auto-
matically become deactivated under
the following conditions:
The cruise control system is not
able to maintain the set cruising
speed.
Wheel slip or wheel spin is detect-
ed. (If the traction control system
has not been turned off, the trac-
tion control system will work.)
The start/engine stop switch is set
to the “ ” position.
The engine stalls.
The sidestand is lowered.
When traveling with a set cruising
speed, if the cruise control system is
deactivated under the above condi-
tions, the “ ” indicator light will go off
and the “SET” indicator light will flash
for 4 seconds, and then go off.
When not traveling with a set cruising
speed, if the start/engine stop switch is
set to the “ ” position, the engine
stalls, or the sidestand is lowered, then
the “ ” indicator light will go off (the
“SET” indicator light will not flash).
If the cruise control system is automat-
ically deactivated, please stop and
confirm that your vehicle is in good op-
erating condition.
Before using the cruise control system
again, activate it using the power
switch.
TIP
In some cases, the cruise control sys-
tem may not be able to maintain the set
cruising speed when the vehicle is
traveling uphill or downhill.
When the vehicle is traveling up-
hill, the actual traveling speed may
become lower than the set cruis-
ing speed. If this occurs, acceler-
ate to the desired traveling speed
using the throttle.
When the vehicle is traveling
downhill, the actual traveling
speed may become higher than
the set cruising speed. If this oc-
curs, the setting switch cannot be
used to adjust the set cruising
speed. To reduce the traveling
speed, apply the brakes. When
the brakes are applied, the cruise
control system will become deac-
tivated.
