ABS warning light “” (for ABS
models)
NOTICE

ECA10831
If the ABS warning light comes on or
flashes while riding, the ABS may
not work correctly. If this occurs,
have a Yamaha dealer check the
electrical circuit.
See page 3-13 for an explanation of the
ABS.
The electrical circuit of the warning light

WARNING

EWA11350
When the ABS warning light comes
on or flashes while riding, the brake
system reverts to conventional brak-
ing. Therefore, be careful not tocause the wheel to lock during emer-
gency braking.
TIP

The ABS warning light may come on
while accelerating the engine with the
scooter on its centerstand, but this
does not indicate a malfunction.

30 seconds have passed, the indicator
light will start flashing indicating the
immobilizer system is enabled. After
24 hours have passed, the indicator
light will stop flashing, however the im-
mobilizer system is still enabled.

The multi-function display is equipped
with the following:


a fuel meter

a coolant temperature meter

an odometer

two tripmeters (which show the
distance traveled since they were
last set to zero)

a fuel reserve tripmeter (which
shows the distance traveled since
the bottom segment of the fuel
meter and fuel level warning indi-
cator started flashing)

a self-diagnosis device

a clock

an ambient temperature display

an oil change indicator

a V-belt replacement indicator
TIP


Be sure to turn the key to “ON” be-
fore using the “SELECT” and
“RESET” buttons.

When the key is turned to “ON”, all
of the display segments of the
multi-function display will appear
one after the other and then disap-
pear, in order to test the electrical
circuit.
Odometer and tripmeter modes
Pushing the “SELECT” button switches
the display between the odometer
mode “Odo” and the tripmeter modes
“Trip” in the following order:
Odo
→
Trip (top)
→
Trip (bottom)
→
Odo
When approximately 2.8 L (0.74 US gal,
0.62 Imp.gal) of fuel remains in the fuel
tank, the bottom segment of the fuel
meter and fuel level warning indicator
will start flashing, and the display willautomatically change to the fuel reserve
tripmeter mode “Trip F” and start count-
ing the distance traveled from that point.
In that case, pushing the “SELECT” but-
ton switches the display between the
various tripmeter and odometer modes
in the following order:
Trip F
→
Trip (top)
→
Trip (bottom)
→
Odo
→
Trip F
To reset a tripmeter, select it by push-
ing the “SELECT” button until “Trip” or
“Trip F” begins flashing (“Trip” or “Trip
F” will only flash for five seconds).
While “Trip” or “Trip F” is flashing, push
the “RESET” button for at least one
second. If you do not reset the fuel re-
serve tripmeter manually, it will reset it-

1. Turn the key to “ON” and make
sure that the engine stop switch is
set to “”.
2. If the indicator does not come on,
have a Yamaha dealer check the
electrical circuit.
Self-diagnosis device
This model is equipped with a self-diag-
nosis device for various electrical cir-
cuits.
If a problem is detected in any of those
circuits, the multi-function display will
indicate an error code.
If the multi-function display indicates an
error code, note the code number, and
then have a Yamaha dealer check the
vehicle.
NOTICE

ECA11790
If the multi-function display indi-
cates an error code, the vehicle
should be checked as soon as pos-
sible in order to avoid engine dam-
age.
The self-diagnosis device also detects
problems in the immobilizer system cir-
cuits.If a problem is detected in the immobi-
lizer system circuits, the immobilizer
system indicator light will flash and the
multi-function display will indicate an
error code when the key is turned to
“ON”.
TIP

If the multi-function display indicates er-
ror code 52, this could be caused by
transponder interference. If this error
appears, try the following.
1. Use the code re-registering key to
start the engine.
TIP

Make sure there are no other immobi-
lizer keys close to the main switch, anddo not keep more than one immobilizer
key on the same key ring! Immobilizer
system keys may cause signal interfer-
ence, which may prevent the engine
from starting.
2. If the engine starts, turn it off, and
try starting the engine with the
standard keys.
3. If one or both of the standard keys
do not start the engine, take the
vehicle, the code re-registering
key and both standard keys to a
Yamaha dealer and have the stan-
dard keys re-registered.
Clock mode
To set the clock:
1. Push the “SELECT” button and
“RESET” button together for at
least two seconds.
2. When the hour digits start flashing,
push the “RESET” button to set the
hours.
3. Push the “SELECT” button, and
the minute digits will start flashing.
4. Push the “RESET” button to set
the minutes.

5. Push the “SELECT” button and
then release it to start the clock.
Pushing the “SELECT” button for
at least two seconds switches the
clock display to the ambient tem-
perature display.
Ambient temperature display
This display shows the ambient tem-
perature from –10 °C to 50 °C in 1 °C
increments. The temperature displayed
may vary from the ambient tempera-
ture. Pushing the “SELECT” button for
at least two seconds switches the am-
bient temperature display to the clock
display.
TIP


If the ambient temperature falls be-
low –10 °C, a lower temperature
than –10 °C will not be displayed.

If the ambient temperature climbs
above 50 °C, a higher temperature
than 50 °C will not be displayed.

The accuracy of the temperature
reading may be affected when
riding slowly (approximately under
20 km/h (12.5 mi/h)) or when
stopped at traffic signals, railroad
crossings, etc.
