meter, the all segments will flash
repeatedly. If this occurs, have a
Yamaha dealer check the vehicle.

US gal, 0.53 Imp.gal) of fuel re-
mains in the fuel tank, the last seg-
ment of the fuel meter will start
flashing. The display will automat-
ically change to the fuel reserve
tripmeter “F Trip” and start count-
ing the distance traveled from that
point.Coolant temperature meter The coolant temperature meter indi-
cates the temperature of the coolant.
If the top segment flashes, stop the ve-
hicle, then stop the engine, and let the
engine cool. (See page 7-36.)

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.

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).

Yamaha dealer check and repair the scooter. In addition, the final transmis-
sion oil must be changed as follows at
the intervals specified in the periodic
maintenance and lubrication chart. 1. Start the engine, warm up the final transmission oil by riding the
scooter for several minutes, and
then stop the engine.
2. Place the scooter on the center- stand.
3. Place an oil pan under the final transmission case to collect the
used oil.
4. Remove the final transmission oil filler cap and its O-ring from the fi-
nal transmission case. 5. Remove the final transmission oil
drain bolt and its gasket to drain
the oil from the final transmission
case. 6. Install the final transmission oil
drain bolt and its new gasket, and
then tighten the bolt to the speci-
fied torque.
7. Refill with the specified amount of the recommended final transmis-
sion oil. WARNING! Make sure
that no forei gn material enters
the final transmission case.
Make sure that no oil gets on
the tire or wheel.
