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 indica-
tor will start flashing, and the display willautomatically change to the fuel re-
serve tripmeter mode “Trip F” and start
counting the distance traveled from that
point. In that case, pushing the
“SELECT” button switches the display
between the various tripmeter and
odometer modes in the following order:
Trip F
→
Trip (top)
→
Trip (bottom)
→
Odo

The display cannot be changed back to
“Trip F” after pushing the “RESET” but-
ton.
Fuel meter
With the key in the “ON” position, the
fuel meter indicates the amount of fuel
in the fuel tank. The display segments
of the fuel meter disappear towards “E”
(Empty) as the fuel level decreases.
When the fuel level reaches the bottom
segment near “E”, the fuel level warn-
ing indicator and the bottom segment
will flash. Refuel as soon as possible.
Coolant temperature meter
With the key in the “ON” position, the
coolant temperature meter indicates
the temperature of the coolant. The
coolant temperature varies with chang-
es in the weather and engine load. If
the top segment and coolant tempera-
ture warning indicator flash, stop the
vehicle and let the engine cool. (Seepage 6-37.)
NOTICE
ECA10021
Do not continue to operate the en-
gine if it is overheating.
Oil change indicator “OIL”
This indicator flashes at the initial 1000
km (600 mi), then at 5000 km (3000 mi)
and every 5000 km (3000 mi) thereafter
to indicate that the engine oil should be
changed.
After changing the engine oil, reset the
oil change indicator. (See page 6-12.)
If the engine oil is changed before the
oil change indicator comes on (i.e. be-
fore the periodic oil change interval has
been reached), the indicator must bereset after the oil change for the next
periodic oil change to be indicated at
the correct time. (See page 6-12.)
The electrical circuit of the indicator can
be checked according to the following
procedure.
1. Set the engine stop switch to “”
and turn the key to “ON”.
2. Check that the indicator comes on
for a few seconds and then goes
off.
3. If the indicator does not come on,
have a Yamaha dealer check the
electrical circuit.
TIP
The oil change indicator may flash
when the engine is revved with the
scooter on the centerstand, but this
does not indicate a malfunction.
V-belt replacement indicator
“V-BELT”
This indicator flashes every 20000 km
(12500 mi) when the V-belt needs to be
replaced.
The electrical circuit of the indicator can
be checked according to the following
procedure.

of the correct torque is 1/4–1/2 turn
past finger tight. However, the spark
plug should be tightened to the speci-
fied torque as soon as possible.
4. Install the spark plug cap.
TIP
Make sure the spark plug wire is fas-
tened in the clamp as shown.5. Install the spark plug cover by in-
stalling the screws.

Engine oil and oil filter
element
The engine oil level should be checked
before each ride. In addition, the oil
must be changed and the oil filter ele-
ment replaced at the intervals specified
in the periodic maintenance and lubri-
cation chart and when the oil change in-
dicator comes on.
To check the engine oil level
1. Place the vehicle on the center-
stand. 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, remove the oil filler cap, wipe
the dipstick clean, insert it back
into the oil filler hole (without
screwing it in), and then remove it
again to check the oil level.
TIP
The engine oil should be between the
tip of the dipstick and the maximum lev-
el mark.

before each ride. In addition, the cool-
ant must be changed at the intervals
specified in the periodic maintenance
and lubrication chart.
EAU34193
To check the coolant level
1. Place the vehicle on a level sur-
face and hold it in an upright posi-
tion.
TIP
The coolant level must be checked
on a cold engine since the level
varies with engine temperature.
Make sure that the vehicle is posi-
tioned straight up when checking
the coolant level. A slight tilt to the
side can result in a false reading.
2. Pull up the right floorboard mat as
shown.3. Remove the coolant reservoir cov-
er by removing the screw.

cantly lower the boiling point of the
fluid and may result in vapor lock,
and dirt may clog the ABS hydrau-
lic unit valves.
Brake fluid may deteriorate paint-
ed surfaces or plastic parts. Al-
ways clean up spilled fluid
immediately.
As the brake pads wear, it is nor-
mal for the brake fluid level to grad-
ually go down. However, if the
brake fluid level goes down sud-
denly, have a Yamaha dealer
check the cause.
EAU22731
Changing the brake fluid
Have a Yamaha dealer change the
brake fluid at the intervals specified in
the TIP after the periodic maintenance
and lubrication chart. In addition, have
the oil seals of the master cylinders and
calipers as well as the brake hoses re-
placed at the intervals listed below or
whenever they are damaged or leak-
ing.
Oil seals: Replace every two
years.
Brake hoses: Replace every four
years.
EAU23101
Checking and lubricating the
cables
The operation of all control cables and
the condition of the cables should be
checked before each ride, and the ca-
bles and cable ends should be lubricat-
ed if necessary. If a cable is damaged
or does not move smoothly, have a
Yamaha dealer check or replace it.
WARNING! Damage to the outer
sheath may interfere with proper ca-
ble operation and will cause the in-
ner cable to rust. Replace a
damaged cable as soon as possible
to prevent unsafe conditions.
