(TCS)
 an air temperature display (AIR)
 a battery voltage display (VOLT)
Push the “RES” switch to change the
display in the following order:

MPG → AIR → VOLT → TCS → OIL
TRIP → BELT TRIP → ODO
TIP The fuel reserve tripmeter appears
only when you are low on fuel.
 Push the “SEL” switch to change

Oil chan ge tripmeter
This tripmeter shows the distance trav-
eled since the last engine oil change.
The oil change indicator “OIL” will flash
at the initial 1000 km (600 mi), the next
4000 km (2500 mi), and then every
5000 km (3000 mi) thereafter.
To reset the oil change tripmeter and
oil change indicator, select the oil
change tripmeter, and then push the
“RES” switch until the tripmeter starts
flashing. While the tripmeter is flashing,
push the “RES” switch until the tripme-
ter is reset.
TIPWhen the engine oil has been
changed, the oil change tripmeter and
the oil change indicator must be reset.
Otherwise, the oil change indicator will
not come on at the correct time.
EAU89172
V- belt replacement tripmeter
This tripmeter shows the distance trav-
eled since the V-belt was last replaced.
The V-belt replacement indicator
“BELT” will flash at every 20000 km
(12500 mi) to indicate that the V-belt
should be replaced. To reset both the tripmeter and the in-
dicator, select the V-belt replacement
tripmeter, and then push the “RES”
switch until the tripmeter starts flash-
ing. While the tripmeter is flashing,
push the “RES” switch until the tripme-
ter is reset.
TIPWhen the V-belt is replaced, the trip-

5 This display shows the fuel consump-
tion under the current riding condi-
tions. It can be set to either “km/L” or
“L/100 km”, or “MPG” when using
miles. To switch the fuel consumption
measurement units, push the “SEL”
switch until the measurement units
change.
 “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 traveling under 10 km/h (6 mi/h),
“_ _._” is displayed.

TIPThe instantaneous fuel consumption
function should be used for general
reference only. Do not use this figure to
estimate the distance that can be trav-
eled on the current tank of fuel.

Averag e fuel consumption display
This display shows the average fuel
consumption since it was last reset.
The average fuel consumption display
can be set to either “AVE_ _._ km/L” or
“AVE_ _._ L/100 km”, or “AVE_ _._
MPG” when using miles. To switch the
fuel consumption measurement units,
push the “SEL” switch until the mea-
surement units change.  “AVE_ _._ km/L”: the average dis-
tance that can be traveled on 1.0 L
of fuel.
 “AVE_ _._ L/100 km”: the average
amount of fuel necessary to travel
100 km. 
“AVE_ _._ MPG”: the average dis-
tance that can be traveled on
1.0 Imp.gal of fuel.
TIPTo reset the display, push the
“RES” switch until it resets.

Settin
g the traction control system
When the vehicle is turned on, traction
control is automatically turned on.
To turn the traction control system off,
use the “SEL” switch to change the
multi-function display to the traction
control system display. Then push the
“RES” switch for three seconds. The
display will show “TCS OFF”, and
the “ ” indicator light will come on.
TIPTurn the traction control system off to
help free the rear wheel if the vehicle
gets stuck in mud, sand, or other soft
surfaces.NOTICE
ECA16801
Use only the specifie d tires. (See
pa ge 8-22.) Usin g different sized
tires will prevent the traction control
system from controllin g tire rotation
accurately.
Resettin g the traction control sys-
tem
The traction control system will auto-
matically disable under certain condi-
tions; such as when a sensor fault is
detected, or when only one wheel is al-
lowed to rotate for more than a few
seconds. Should this happen,
the “ ” indicator light will come on,
and possibly the “ ” warning light,
too.

TIPThis model is equipped with a lean an-
gle sensor to stop the engine in case of
a turnover. In this case, the engine
trouble warning light will come on but
this is not a malfunction. Before re-
starting the engine, turn the main
switch off and then back on to reset the
engine trouble warning light. Failing to
do so will prevent the engine from
starting even though the engine will
crank when pushing the start switch.
