4.5 L. When this occurs, refuel as soon
as possible.
The electrical circuit of the warning light
can be checked according to the fol-
lowing procedure.
1. Set the engine stop switch to “ ”
and turn the key to “ON”.

tral position or pull the clutch lever. 3. Push the start switch. If the warn-
ing light does not come on, have a
Yamaha dealer check the electri-
cal circuit.

Speedometer unit The speedometer unit is equipped with
a speedometer, an odometer and a
tripmeter. The speedometer shows
riding speed. The odometer shows the
total distance traveled. The tripmeter
shows the distance traveled since it
was last set to zero with the reset knob.
The tripmeter can be used to estimate
the distance that can be traveled with a
full tank of fuel. This information will en-
able you to plan future fuel stops.
