the engine is running, stop the en-
gine immediately and check oil level.
If the oil level is below the minimum
level, add sufficient oil of the recom-
mended type to raise it up to the cor-
rect level. If the oil pressure warning
light remains on even if the oil level
is correct, immediately turn the en-
gine off and have a Yamaha dealercheck the vehicle.TIPIf the warning light does not go off after
starting the engine, check the engine oil
level and add oil if necessary. (See

EAU11447
Coolant temperature warning light
“”
This warning light comes on if the en-
gine overheats. If this occurs, stop the
engine immediately and allow the en-
gine to cool.
The electrical circuit of the warning light
can be checked by turning the key 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 key is turned to “ON”,
or if the warning light remains on, have
a Yamaha dealer check the electrical
circuit.NOTICE
ECA10022
Do not continue to operate the en-
gine if it is overheating.TIP
For radiator-fan-equipped vehi-
cles, the radiator fan(s) automati-
cally switch on or off according to
the coolant temperature in the ra-
diator.

If the engine overheats, see page7-38 for further instructions.
EAU73171

TIP
This mark identifies the recom-
mended fuel for this vehicle as
specified by European regulation
(EN228).

Check that gasoline nozzle has thesame identifier when fueling.
Your Yamaha engine has been de-
signed to use premium unleaded gaso-
line with a research octane number of
95 or higher. If knocking (or pinging) oc-
curs, use a gasoline of a different
brand. Use of unleaded fuel will extend
spark plug life and reduce maintenance
costs.
Gasohol
There are two types of gasohol: gaso- hol containing ethanol and that contain-
ing methanol. Gasohol containing
ethanol can be used if the ethanol con-
tent does not exceed 10% (E10). Gas-
ohol containing methanol is not
recommended by Yamaha because it
can cause damage to the fuel system
or vehicle performance problems.
EAU74230
Fuel tank overflow hoseTIPSee page 7-10 for breather information.
Before operating the motorcycle:
Check the fuel tank overflow hose
connection.

Check the fuel tank overflow hose
for cracks or damage, and replace
it if necessary.

Make sure that the end of the fuel
tank overflow hose is not blocked,
and clean it if necessary.

Make sure that the fuel tank over-
flow hose is routed through the
clamp.

Engine oil and oil filter
cartridgeThe engine oil level should be checked
before each ride. In addition, the oil
must be changed and the oil filter car-
tridge replaced at the intervals speci-
fied in the periodic maintenance and
lubrication chart.
To check the engine oil level
1. Place the vehicle on a level sur- face and hold it in an upright posi-
tion. A slight tilt to the side can
result in a false reading.
2. Start the engine, warm it up for several minutes, and then turn it
off.
3. Wait a few minutes until the oil set- tles, and then check the oil level
through the check window located
at the bottom-left side of the crank-
case.TIPThe engine oil should be between theminimum and maximum level marks.
