Indicator lights and warning
lights
EAU11032Turn signal indicator lights “ ”
and“”
Each indicator light will flash when its
corresponding turn signal lights are
flashing.
EAU11081High beam indicator light “ ”
This indicator light comes on when the
high beam of the headlight is switched
on.
EAU78180Engine trouble warning light “ ”
This warning light comes on if a prob-
lem is detected in the engine or other
vehicle control system. If this occurs,
have a Yamaha dealer check the on-
board diagnostic system.The electrical circuit of the warning
light can be checked by turning the
main switch to “ON”. The warning light
should come on for a few seconds, and
then go off.
If the warning light does not come on
initially when the main switch is turned
to “ON”, or if the warning light remains
on, have a Yamaha dealer check the
vehicle.
EAU78171ABS warning light “ ”
In normal operation, the ABS warning
light comes on when the main switch is
turned to “ON”, and goes off after trav-
eling at a speed of 10 km/h (6 mi/h) or
higher.
If the ABS warning light:
does not come on when the main
switch is turned to “ON”
comes on or flashes while riding
does not go off after traveling at a
speed of 10 km/h (6 mi/h) or high-
er
The ABS may not work correctly. If any
of the above occurs, have a Yamaha
dealer check the system as soon as
possible. (See page 4-15 for an expla-
nation of the ABS.)
WARNING
EWA16041
If the ABS warning light does not go
off after traveling at a speed of 10
km/h (6 mi/h) or higher, or if the
warning light comes on or flashes
while riding, the brake system re-
verts to conventional braking. If ei-
ther of the above occurs, or if the
warning light does not come on at
all, use extra caution to avoid possi-
ble wheel lock during emergency

4braking. Have a Yamaha dealer
check the brake system and electri-
cal circuits as soon as possible.
TIP
The ABS warning light may come on
while accelerating the engine with the
vehicle on its centerstand, but this
does not indicate a malfunction.
If this happens, turn the main switch off
and then back on again to reset the in-
dicator light.
EAU78591Traction control system indicator
light “TCS”
This indicator light will flash when trac-
tion control has engaged.
If the traction control system is turned
off, this indicator light will come on.
(See page 4-16.)
TIP
When the vehicle is turned on, the light
should come on for a few seconds and
then go off. If the light does not come
on, or if the light remains on, have a
Yamaha dealer check vehicle.
EAU78600Smart key system indicator
light “ ”
This indicator light communicates the
status of the smart key system. When
the smart key system is operating nor-
mally, this indicator light will be off. If
there is an error in the smart key sys-
tem, the indicator light will flash. The
indicator light will also flash when com-
munication between the vehicle and
smart key takes place and when cer-
tain smart key system operations are
carried out.
EAU63544
Speedometer
For the UK
The speedometer shows the vehicle’s
traveling speed.
When the vehicle power is turned on,
the speedometer needle will sweep
once across the speed range and then
return to zero in order to test the elec-
trical circuit.

EAU78200
ABS
The Yamaha ABS (Anti-lock Brake
System) features a dual electronic con-
trol system, which acts on the front and
rear brakes independently.
Operate the brakes with ABS as you
would conventional brakes. If the ABS
is activated, a pulsating sensation may
be felt at the brake levers. In this situa-
tion, continue to apply the brakes and
let the ABS work; do not “pump” the
brakes as this will reduce braking ef-
fectiveness.
WARNING
EWA16051
Always keep a sufficient distance
from the vehicle ahead to match the
riding speed even with ABS.
The ABS performs best with
long braking distances.
On certain surfaces, such as
rough or gravel roads, the brak-
ing distance may be longer with
the ABS than without.
The ABS is monitored by an ECU,
which will revert the system to conven-
tional braking if a malfunction occurs.
TIP
The ABS performs a self-diagno-
sis test each time the vehicle first
starts off after the main switch is
turned to “ON” and the vehicle has
traveled at a speed of 10 km/h (6
mi/h) or higher. During this test, a
“clicking” noise can be heard from
the front of the vehicle, and if ei-
ther brake lever is even slightly ap-
plied, a vibration can be felt at the
lever, but these do not indicate a
malfunction.

4This ABS has a test mode which
allows the owner to experience
the pulsation at the brake levers
when the ABS is operating. How-
ever, special tools are required, so
please consult your Yamaha deal-
er.
NOTICE
ECA20100
Be careful not to damage the wheel
sensor or wheel sensor rotor; other-
wise, improper performance of the
ABS will result.
EAU78611
Traction control system
The traction control system (TCS)
helps maintain traction when acceler-
ating on slippery surfaces, such as un-
paved or wet roads. If sensors detect
that the rear wheel is starting to slip
(uncontrolled spinning), the traction
control system assists by regulating
engine power until traction is restored.
When traction control has engaged,
the “ ” indicator light will flash. You
may notice changes in engine re-
sponse or exhaust sound.
WARNING
EWA18860
The traction control system is not a
substitute for riding appropriately
for the conditions. Traction control
cannot prevent loss of traction due
to excessive speed when entering
turns, when accelerating hard at a
sharp lean angle, or while braking,
and cannot prevent front wheel slip-
ping. As with any vehicle, approach
surfaces that may be slippery with
caution and avoid especially slip-
pery surfaces.

Ignition circuit cut-off system
The ignition circuit cut-off system
works with the sidestand switch and
brake light switches. It has the follow-
ing functions.
It prevents the engine from start-
ing when the sidestand is down.
It prevents the engine from start-
ing if the brakes are not applied.
It will stop the running engine if the
sidestand is moved down.
Periodically check the operation of the
ignition circuit cut-off system accord-
ing to the following procedure.
