Immo bilizer system in dicator
li g ht “ ”
When the vehicle is turned off and 30
seconds have passed, the indicator
light will flash steadily to indicate the immobilizer system is enabled. After 24
hours have passed, the indicator light
will stop flashing, however the immobi-
lizer system is still enabled.
TIPWhen the vehicle is turned on, the light
will come on for a few seconds, and go
off. Otherwise, have a Yamaha dealer
check the vehicle.Trou
bleshootin g
If a problem is detected in the immobi-
lizer system, the light will flash in a pat-
tern. If the immobilizer system
indicator light flashes in the pattern,
slowly 5 times then quickly 2 times, this
could be caused by transponder inter-
ference. If this 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 more of the standard keys do not start the engine, take
the vehicle and all keys to a
Yamaha dealer to have the stan-
dard keys re-registered.

Si destan dThe sidestand is located on the left
side of the frame. Raise the sidestand
or lower it with your foot while holding
the vehicle upright.TIPThe built-in sidestand switch is part of
the ignition circuit cut-off system,
which cuts the ignition in certain situa-
tions. (See the following section for an
explanation of the ignition circuit cut-
off system.)
WARNING
EWA10242
The vehicle must not be ri dden with
the si destan d d own, or if the si de-
stan d cannot b e properly move d up
(or does not stay up), otherwise the
si destan d coul d contact the groun d
an d d istract the operator, resultin g
in a possi ble loss of control.
Yamaha’s ig nition circuit cut-off
system has been desi gne d to assist
the operator in fulfillin g the respon-
si bility of raisin g the si destan d b e-
fore startin g off. Therefore, check this system re
gularly an d have a
Yamaha dealer repair it if it does not
function properly.
EAU44895
I g nition circuit cut-off systemThis system prevents in-gear engine
starts unless the clutch lever is pulled
and the sidestand is up. Also, it will
stop the running engine should the
sidestand be lowered while the trans-
mission is in gear.
Periodically check the system via the
following procedure.TIP This check is most reliable if per-
formed with a warmed-up engine.
 See pages 3-2 and 3-12 for switch
operation information.

TIPThis model is equipped with:
 a lean angle sensor. This sensor
stops the engine in case of a vehi-
cle turnover. If this happens, the
engine trouble warning light will
come on, but this is not a malfunc-
tion. Turn the vehicle power off
and then back on again to cancel
the warning light. Failing to do so
will prevent the engine from start-
ing 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
switch to restart the engine.
