Multi-function display
The multi-function display is equipped
with the following:
an odometer (ODO)
two tripmeters (TRIP 1 and TRIP 2)
a fuel reserve tripmeter (TRIP F)
an oil change tripmeter (OIL TRIP)
an oil change indicator
a V-belt replacement tripmeter (V-
BELT TRIP)
a V-belt replacement indicator
an instantaneous fuel consump-
tion display (F/ECO)
an average fuel consumption dis-
play (AVE F/ECO)
a battery voltage display (BATT)a traction control system display
(TCS)
Push the “MENU” switch to change
the display in the following order:
ODO and F/ECO → TRIP 1 and AVE
F/ECO → TRIP 2 and AVE F/ECO →
TRIP F → BATT → TCS → OIL TRIP →

TIPThe fuel reserve tripmeter appears
only when you are low on fuel.
The oil change tripmeter and V-
belt replacement tripmeter are not
displayed while the vehicle is
moving.
There is an average fuel consump-
tion display for each tripmeter
(TRIP 1 and TRIP 2). When a trip-
meter is reset, the average fuel
consumption display for that trip-
meter will also be reset.

displayThis display shows fuel consumption
under current riding conditions. It can
be set to either “km/L” or “L/100 km”,
or “MPG” when using miles.
“km/L”: the distance that can be
traveled on 1.0 L of fuel.
“L/100 km”: the amount of fuel
necessary to travel 100 km.
“MPG”: the distance that can be
traveled on 1.0 Imp.gal of fuel.

TIPWhen the vehicle is on the centerstand,
do not rev the engine for an extended
period of time. Otherwise, the traction
control system will automatically dis-
able and need to be reset.If the traction control system automat-
ically disables, try resetting it as fol-
lows.
1. Stop the vehicle and turn it off
completely.
2. Wait a few seconds and then turn
the vehicle power on.
3. The “ ” indicator light should
turn off and the system be en-
abled.TIPIf the Ž indicator light remains on
after resetting, the vehicle may still be
ridden; however, have a Yamaha deal-
er check the vehicle as soon as possi-
ble.4. Have a Yamaha dealer check the
vehicle and turn off the Ž
warning light.

FuelMake sure there is sufficient gasoline in
the tank.
WARNING
EWA10882
Gasoline and gasoline vapors are
extremely flammable. To avoid fires
and explosions and to reduce the
risk of injury when refueling, follow
these instructions.1. Before refueling, turn off the en-
gine and be sure that no one is sit-
ting on the vehicle. Never refuel
while smoking, or while in the vi-
cinity of sparks, open flames, or
other sources of ignition such as
the pilot lights of water heaters
and clothes dryers.
2. Do not overfill the fuel tank. Stop
filling when the fuel reaches the
bottom of the filler tube. Because
fuel expands when it heats up,
heat from the engine or the sun
can cause fuel to spill out of the
fuel tank.3. Wipe up any spilled fuel immedi-
ately. NOTICE: Immediately
wipe off spilled fuel with a clean,
dry, soft cloth, since fuel may
deteriorate painted surfaces or
plastic parts.
[ECA10072]
4. Be sure to securely close the fuel
tank cap.
WARNING
EWA15152
Gasoline is poisonous and can
cause injury or death. Handle gaso-
line with care. Never siphon gasoline
by mouth. If you should swallow
some gasoline or inhale a lot of gas-
oline vapor, or get some gasoline in
your eyes, see your doctor immedi-ately. If gasoline spills on your skin,
wash with soap and water. If gaso-
line spills on your clothing, change
your clothes.
EAU86072
Your Yamaha engine was designed to
use unleaded gasoline with a research
octane number of 90 or higher. If en-
gine knocking or pinging occurs, use a
gasoline of a different brand or higher
octane rating.TIPThis mark identifies the recom-
mended fuel for this vehicle as
specified by European regulation
(EN228).

6Confirm the gasoline pump nozzle
has the same fuel identification
mark.
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.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.
EAU86150
Fuel tank overflow hoseThe overflow hose drains excess gaso-
line and directs it safely away from the
vehicle.
Before operating the vehicle:
Check the fuel tank overflow hose
connection and routing.
Check the fuel tank overflow hose
for cracks or damage, and replace
it if necessary.
Make sure that the fuel tank over-
flow hose is not blocked, and
clean it if necessary.
EAU13435
Catalytic converterThe exhaust system contains catalytic
converter(s) to reduce harmful exhaust
emissions.
WARNING
EWA10863
The exhaust system is hot after op-
eration. To prevent a fire hazard or
burns:
Do not park the vehicle near
possible fire hazards such as
grass or other materials that
easily burn.
Park the vehicle in a place
where pedestrians or children
are not likely to touch the hot
exhaust system.
Make sure that the exhaust sys-
tem has cooled down before
doing any maintenance work.
Do not allow the engine to idle
more than a few minutes. Long
idling can cause a build-up of
heat.
