WARNING
EWA12313
Be sure to stop the vehicle before
making any setting changes to the
multi-function display. Changing
settings while riding can distract the
operator and increase the risk of an
accident.The multi-function display is equipped
with the following:
a digital clock
a digital speedometer (which
shows riding speed)
an odometer (which shows the to-
tal distance traveled)
a tripmeter (which shows the dis-
tance traveled since it was last set
to zero)
a fuel reserve tripmeter (which
shows the distance traveled on
the fuel reserve)
an oil change indicator (which
shows when the engine oil should
be changed)
a fuel gauge
a self-diagnosis device
TIPBe sure to turn the key to “ ” be-
fore using the “RESET/SELECT”
button.
For the U.K. only: To switch the
speedometer and odometer/trip-
meter displays between kilome-
ters and miles, when the main
switch is turned to “ ”, press the
“RESET/SELECT” button for at
least eight seconds.To set the clock:1. Select the odometer and push the
“RESET/SELECT” button for at
least three seconds.
2. When the hour digits start flash-
ing, push the “RESET/SELECT”
button to set the hours.3. To change the minutes digits,
push the “RESET/SELECT” but-
ton for at least three seconds.
4. When the minutes digits start
flashing, push the “RESET/SE-
LECT” button to set the minutes.
5. Push the “RESET/SELECT” but-
ton for at least three seconds to
start the clock.

3 Odometer and tripmeter modes
Pushing the “RESET/SELECT“ button
switches the display between the
odometer mode “ODO” and the trip-
meter “TRIP” in the following order:
ODO → TRIP → ODO
If the fuel level warning indicator
comes on (see page 3-2), the odome-
ter display will automatically change to
the fuel reserve tripmeter mode “TRIP
F” and start counting the distance trav-
eled from that point. In that case, push-
ing the “RESET/SELECT“ button
switches the display between the vari-
ous tripmeter and odometer modes in
the following order:
TRIP F → ODO → TRIP → TRIP FTo reset a tripmeter, select it by push-
ing the “RESET/SELECT” button, and
then push it again for at least three sec-
onds. If you do not reset the fuel re-
serve tripmeter manually, it will reset
itself automatically and the display will
return to the prior mode after refueling
and traveling 5 km (3 mi).
TIPThe display cannot be changed back
SET/SELECTŽ button.
Oil change indicator “OIL CHANGE”
This indicator comes on at the initial
1000 km (600 mi), then at 3000 km
(1800 mi) and every 3000 km (1800 mi)
thereafter to indicate that the engine oil
should be changed. (See page 6-9)
Fuel gauge
The fuel gauge indicates the amount of
fuel in the fuel tank. The display seg-
ments of the fuel gauge disappear to-
wards “E” (Empty) as the fuel level
decreases. When only two segments
are left near “E”, the fuel level warning
indicator comes on. Refuel as soon as
possible.

and is not an indicator of fuel level in
the fuel tank.Self-diagnosis device
This model is equipped with a self-di-
agnosis device for the fuel electrical
circuit.
If a problem is detected in the fuel elec-
trical circuit, all LCD segments of the
fuel gauge and the fuel level warning
indicator will flash alternately. If this oc-
curs, have a Yamaha dealer check the
vehicle.

Fuel tank capTo remove the fuel tank cap
1. Open the passenger seat. (See
page 3-11.)
2. Turn the fuel tank cap counter-
clockwise and pull it off.
To install the fuel tank cap
1. Insert the fuel tank cap into the
tank opening and turn it clock-
wise.
2. Close the passenger seat.
WARNING
EWA11092
Make sure that the fuel tank cap is
properly closed after filling fuel.
Leaking fuel is a fire hazard.
EAU13222
FuelMake sure there is sufficient gasoline in
the tank.
WARNING
EWA10882
Gasoline and gasoline vapors are
extremely flammable. To avoid fires
and explosions and to reduce the
risk of injury when refueling, follow
these instructions.1. Before refueling, turn off the en-
gine and be sure that no one is sit-
ting on the vehicle. Never refuel
while smoking, or while in the vi-
cinity of sparks, open flames, or
other sources of ignition such as
the pilot lights of water heaters
and clothes dryers.
2. Do not overfill the fuel tank. When
refueling, be sure to insert the
pump nozzle into the fuel tank filler
hole. Stop filling when the fuel
reaches the bottom of the filler
tube. Because fuel expands when
it heats up, heat from the engine or
the sun can cause fuel to spill out
of the fuel tank.

3. Wipe up any spilled fuel immedi- ately. NOTICE: Immediately
wipe off spilled fuel with a clean,
dry, soft cloth, since fuel may
deteriorate painted surfaces or
plastic parts.
[ECA10072]
4. Be sure to securely close the fuel tank cap.
WARNING
EWA15152
Gasoline is poisonous and can
cause injury or death. Handle gaso-
line with care. Never siphon gasoline
by mouth. If you should swallow
some gasoline or inhale a lot of gas-
oline vapor, or get some gasoline in
your eyes, see your doctor immedi- ately. If gasoline spills on your skin,
wash with soap and water. If gaso-
line spills on your clothing, change
your clothes.
EAU54601
NOTICE
ECA11401
Use only unleaded gasoline. The use
of leaded gasoline will cause severe
damage to internal engine parts,
such as the valves and piston rings,
as well as to the exhaust system.Your Yamaha engine has been de-
signed to use premium unleaded gas-
oline with a research octane number of
95 or higher. If knocking (or pinging)
occurs, use a gasoline of a different
brand. Use of unleaded fuel will extend
spark plug life and reduce mainte-
nance costs.
Gasohol
There are two types of gasohol: gaso-
hol containing ethanol and that con-
taining 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.
