Engine trouble warning light“”
This warning light comes on or flashes
if a problem is detected in the electrical
circuit monitoring the engine. If this oc-
curs, have a Yamaha dealer check the
self-diagnosis system. (See page 3-15
for an explanation of the self-diagnosis
device.)
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.
EAU47481
Steering damper warning light“”
This warning light comes on and an er-
ror code is displayed if a problem is de-
tected in the steering damper. If this
occurs, have a Yamaha dealer check
the self-diagnosis system. (See page
3-15 for an explanation of the self-diag-
nosis device.)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.
EAU11574
Shift timing indicator light
This indicator light can be set to come
on and go off at the desired engine
speeds and is used to inform the rider
when it is time to shift to the next higher
gear.
The electrical circuit of the indicator
light can be checked by turning the key
to “ON”. The indicator light should
come on for a few seconds, and then
go off.
If the indicator light does not come on
initially when the key is turned to “ON”,
or if the indicator light remains on, have
a Yamaha dealer check the electrical
circuit. (See page 3-16 for a detailed
explanation of the function of this indi-
cator light and on how to set it.)
EAU38623
Immobilizer system indicator light
The electrical circuit of the indicator
light can be checked by turning the key
to “ON”. The indicator light should
come on for a few seconds, and then
go off.
If the indicator light does not come on
initially when the key is turned to “ON”,
or if the indicator light remains on, have
a Yamaha dealer check the electrical
circuit.
When the key is turned to “OFF” and 30
seconds have passed, the indicator
light will start flashing indicating the im-
mobilizer system is enabled. After 24
hours have passed, the indicator light
will stop flashing, however the immobi-
lizer system is still enabled.
This model is also equipped with a self-
diagnosis device for the immobilizer
system. (See page 3-15 for an explana-
tion of the self-diagnosis device.)

Multi-function meter unit
WARNING
EWA12422
Be sure to stop the vehicle before
making any setting changes to the
multi-function meter unit. Changingsettings while riding can distract the
operator and increase the risk of an
accident.
The multi-function meter unit is
equipped with the following:
a speedometer
a tachometer
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 fuel level warning light came
on)
a stopwatch
a clock
a coolant temperature display
an air intake temperature display
a transmission gear display
a drive mode display (which shows
the selected drive mode)
a throttle opening position display
a fuel consumption display (instan-
taneous and average consumption
functions)
a self-diagnosis device
a display brightness, shift timing
indicator light and throttle opening
position display control mode
TIP
Be sure to turn the key to “ON” be-
fore using the “SELECT” and “RE-
SET” buttons.
For the U.K. only: To switch the

(3 mi).
Instantaneous fuel consumption mode
The instantaneous fuel consumption
display can be set to either “km/L”,
“L/100 km” or “MPG” (for the UK only).
When the display is set to “km/L”,
the distance that can be traveled
on 1.0 L of fuel under the current
riding conditions is shown.
When the display is set to “L/100
km”, the amount of fuel necessary
to travel 100 km under the current
riding conditions is shown.
For the UK only: When the display
is set to “MPG”, the distance that
can be traveled on 1.0 Imp.gal of
fuel under the current riding condi-
tions is shown.
To switch between the instantaneous
fuel consumption displays, push the
“SELECT” button for one second when
one of the displays is shown.

can be set to either “AVE_ _._ km/L”,
“AVE_ _._ L/100 km” or “AVE_ _._
MPG” (for the UK only).
This display shows the average fuel
consumption since it was last reset.
When the display is set to “AVE_

that can be traveled on 1.0 L of fuel
is shown.
When the display is set to “AVE_
_._ L/100 km”, the average
amount of fuel necessary to travel
100 km is shown.
For the UK only: When the display
is set to “AVE_ _._ MPG”, the av-
erage distance that can be trav-
eled on 1.0 Imp.gal of fuel is
shown.

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 engine trouble warning light
comes on and the display indicates an
error code.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 flashes and the
display indicates an error code.
TIPIf the display indicates error code 52,
this could be caused by transponder in-
terference. If this error code appears,
try the following.1. Use the code re-registering key to
start the engine.TIPMake sure there are no other immobi-
lizer keys close to the main switch, and
do 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.
If the display indicates any error codes,
note the code number, and then have a
Yamaha dealer check the vehicle.
NOTICE
ECA11590
If the display indicates an error
code, the vehicle should be checked
as soon as possible in order to avoid
engine damage.
