4 V-
belt replacement tripmeter “V-
Belt Trip”
The V-belt replacement tripmeter
shows the distance traveled since the
V-belt was last replaced.
The V-belt replacement indicator “V-
Belt” will flash every 20000 km (12000
mi) to indicate that the V-belt should be
replaced.
After replacing the V-belt, reset the V-
belt replacement indicator and the V-
belt replacement tripmeter. To reset
them both, select the V-belt replace-
ment tripmeter, and then push the
“TRIP” switch for three seconds. While the V-belt replacement tripmeter
is flashing, push the “TRIP” switch for
15 to 20 seconds. Release the “TRIP”
switch, and the V-belt trip value will re-
set to zero.
TIPIf the V-belt is replaced before the V-
belt replacement indicator comes on
(i.e., before the periodic V-belt replace-
ment interval has been reached), the V-
belt replacement tripmeter must be re-
set for the V-belt replacement indicator
to come on at the correct time.Information

TIP When kilometers are selected for
the display units, “Consump-

“Consumption_ _ _._MPG” are not
displayed.
 When miles are selected for the
display units, “Consump-
tion/Average_ _._ km/L”, “Con-
sumption/Average_ _._ L/100
km”, “Consumption_ _._ km/L”,
and “Consumption_ _._ L/100 km”
are not displayed.Air temperature display This display shows the air temperature
from –10 °C to 50 °C in 1 °C incre-
ments.
The icy road warning indicator “ ” will
flash when the temperature is below 4
°C.
The temperature displayed may vary
from the actual ambient temperature.
TIPThe accuracy of the temperature read-
ing may be affected by engine heat
when riding slowly (under 20 km/h [12
mi/h]) or when stopped at traffic sig-
nals, etc.Battery volta

state of the battery.
TIP
If the engine turns over slowly
when using the start switch, have
a Yamaha dealer charge the bat-
tery.
 If “---” appears in the battery volt-
age display, have a Yamaha deal-
er check the battery.Traction control system display
This display shows the current status
of the traction control system. (See
page 4-15.)  “TCS ON”: the system is on
 “TCSOFF”: the system is off
TIPIf only “TCS” is displayed, there is a
communication error within the vehi-
cle. Have a Yamaha dealer check the
vehicle as soon as possible.Averag e fuel consumption display
This function calculates the average
fuel consumption since it was last re-
set.
The average fuel consumption can be
displayed as either “Consump-
tion/Average_ _._ km/L”, “Consump-
tion/Average_ _._ L/100 km” or
“Consumption/Average_ _ _._ MPG”
(for the UK). 
“Consumption/Average_ _._
km/L”: The average distance that
can be traveled on 1.0 L of fuel is
shown.
 “Consumption/Average_ _._
L/100 km”: The average amount
of fuel necessary to travel 100 km
is shown.
 “Consumption/Average_ _ _._
MPG” (for the UK): The average
distance that can be traveled on
1.0 Imp.gal of fuel is shown.
To reset the average fuel consumption,
push the “INFO” switch for at least
three seconds.
TIPAfter resetting the average fuel con-
sumption, “_ _._” will be shown until
the vehicle has traveled 1 km (0.6 mi).

Instantaneous fuel consumption
d
isplay
This function calculates the fuel con-
sumption under current riding condi-
tions.
The instantaneous fuel consumption
can be displayed as either
“Consumption_ _._km/L”,
“Consumption_ _._L/100 km” or
“Consumption_ _ _._MPG” (for the
UK).  “Consumption_ _._km/L”: The
distance that can be traveled on
1.0 L of fuel under the current rid-
ing conditions is shown. 
“Consumption_ _._L/100 km”:
The amount of fuel necessary to
travel 100 km under the current
riding conditions is shown.
 “Consumption_ _ _._MPG” (for the
UK): The distance that can be
traveled on 1.0 Imp.gal of fuel un-
der the current riding conditions is
shown.
TIPIf traveling at speeds under 10 km/h (6
mi/h), “_ _._” is displayed.Avera ge speed d isplay
The average speed “Average_ _ _kmh”
or “Average_ _ _MPH” (for the UK) is
displayed. The average speed is the total distance
divided by the total time (with the main
switch in the “ON” position) since the
display was last reset to zero.
This display shows the average speed
since it was last reset.
To reset the average speed display,
select it by pushing the “INFO” switch,
and then push the “INFO” switch for
three seconds.
Warnin
g messa ge function
This function displays a warning mes-
sage corresponding to the current
warning.
“L FUEL”: Appears when the last seg-
ment of the fuel meter starts flashing. If
“L FUEL” is displayed, refuel as soon
as possible.
“H TEMP”: Appears when the top seg-
ment of the coolant temperature meter
starts flashing. If “H TEMP” is dis-
played, stop the vehicle, then stop the
engine, and let the engine cool.
“ICE”: Appears when the icy road
warning indicator “ ” starts flashing. If
“ICE” is displayed, be careful of icy
roads.

Tips for re
ducin g fuel con-
sumptionFuel consumption depends largely on
your riding style. Consider the follow-
ing tips to reduce fuel consumption:
 Avoid high engine speeds during
acceleration.
 Avoid high engine speeds with no
load on the engine.
 Turn the engine off instead of let-
ting it idle for an extended length
of time (e.g., in traffic jams, at traf-
fic lights or at railroad crossings).
EAUN1421
Parkin gWhen parking, turn the vehicle power
off, and then turn the smart key off.TIPEven when the vehicle is parked in a lo-
cation partitioned by a fence or the
glass window of a shop, if the smart
key is within operating range, other
people will be able to start the engine
and operate the vehicle. Please turn
the smart key off when leaving the ve-
hicle. (See page 3-5.)If the sidestand is lowered when the
engine is running, the engine will stop
and the beeper will sound for approxi-
mately 1 minute. To stop the beeper,
turn the vehicle power off or raise the
sidestand.TIPBefore leaving the vehicle, be sure
to turn the main switch to “OFF”
or “ ”. Otherwise, the battery may
discharge.
 The sidestand alarm beeper can
be set to not activate. Please con-
tact your Yamaha dealer.
