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
Engine trouble warning light “ ”
This warning light comes on if a prob-
lem is detected in the engine or other
vehicle control system. If this occurs,
have a Yamaha dealer check the
on-board diagnostic system.
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 vehicle.
EAU69891
ABS warning light “ ”
In normal operation, this warning light
comes on when the key is turned to “ON”, and goes off after traveling at a
speed of 10 km/h (6 mi/h) or higher.
If the ABS warning light:
does not come on when the key is
turned to “ON”
comes on or flashes while riding
does not go off after traveling at a
speed of 10 km/h (6 mi/h) or higher
The ABS may not work correctly. If any
of the above occurs, have a Yamaha
dealer check the system as soon as
possible. (See page 4-16 for an expla-
nation of the ABS.)WARNING
EWA16041
If the ABS warning light does not go
off after traveling at a speed of 10
km/h (6 mi/h) or higher, or if the
warning light comes on or flashes
while riding, the brake system re-
verts to conventional braking. If ei-
ther of the above occurs, or if the
warning light does not come on at
all, use extra caution to avoid possi-
ble wheel lock during emergency
braking. Have a Yamaha dealer
check the brake system and electri-cal circuits as soon as possible.

This display shows the coolant temper-
ature from 40
C to 116 C in 1 C incre-
ments.
If the message “HI” flashes, stop the vehicle, then stop the engine, and let
the engine cool. (See page 7-38.)
TIP
When the coolant temperature is
below 40
C, “Lo” will be displayed.
The coolant temperature varies
with changes in the weather andengine load.
Air intake temperature mode
The air intake temperature display indi-
cates the temperature of the air drawn
into the air filter case.
This display shows the air intake tem-
perature from –9 C to 99 C in 1 C in-
crements.
TIP
–9 C will be displayed even if the
air intake temperature falls below
–9 C.
The air intake temperature may
vary from the ambient tempera-ture.

TIPThis model is equipped with:
a lean angle sensor to stop the en-
gine in case of a turnover. In this
case, the engine trouble warning
light will come on, but this is not a
malfunction. Turn the key to “OFF”
and then to “ON” to turn off the
warning light. Failing to do so will
prevent the engine from starting
even though the engine will crank
when pushing the start switch.
an engine auto-stop system. The
engine stops automatically if left
idling for 20 minutes. If the engine
stops, simply push the start switchto restart the engine.

system to enable starting, one of the
following conditions must be met:
The transmission is in the neutral
position.
The transmission is in gear with
the clutch lever pulled and the sid-
estand up.
See page 4-26 for more informa-
tion.

TIPUsing a funnel is recommended.
9. After checking the engine oil filler cap O-ring, install the filler cap.TIPWipe off any spilled oil before startingthe engine.
10. Start the engine and let it idle for several minutes while checking for
oil leaks. If any leakage is found,
immediately stop the engine and
check for the cause.
NOTICE
ECA10402
If the oil level warning light flickers
or remains on even if the oil level is
correct, immediately turn the engine
off and have a Yamaha dealer checkthe vehicle.
11. Turn the engine off, wait a few min- utes until the oil settles, and then
check the oil level one last time.
EAUS1203
CoolantThe coolant level should be checked
regularly. In addition, the coolant must
be changed at the intervals specified in
the periodic maintenance chart.TIPIf genuine Yamaha coolant is not avail-
able, use an ethylene glycol antifreeze
containing corrosion inhibitors for alu-
minum engines and mix with distilledwater at a 1:1 ratio.
EAU20097
To check the coolant level
Since the coolant level varies with en-
gine temperature, check when the en-
gine is cold.1. Park the vehicle on a level surface.
2. With the vehicle in an upright posi- tion, look at the coolant level in the
Tightening torque:Oil filter cartridge:17 N·m (1.7 kgf·m, 13 lb·ft)
Tightening torque: Engine oil drain bolt:43 N·m (4.3 kgf·m, 32 lb·ft)
Recommended coolant: YAMALUBE coolant
Coolant quantity: Coolant reservoir (max level mark):0.25 L (0.26 US qt, 0.22 Imp.qt)
Radiator (including all routes): 1.93 L (2.04 US qt, 1.70 Imp.qt)

reservoir.
3. If the coolant is at or below the minimum level mark, remove the
coolant reservoir cap. WARNING!
Remove only the coolant reser-
voir cap. Never attempt to re-
move the radiator cap when the
engine is hot.
[EWA15162]
4. Add coolant to the maximum level mark. NOTICE: If coolant is not
available, use distilled water or
soft tap water instead. Do not
use hard water or salt water
since it is harmful to the engine.
If water has been used instead
of coolant, replace it with cool-
ant as soon as possible, other-
wise the cooling system will not
be protected against frost and
corrosion. If water has been
added to the coolant, have a
Yamaha dealer check the anti-
freeze content of the coolant as
soon as possible, otherwise the
effectiveness of the coolant will be reduced.
[ECA10473]
5. Install the coolant reservoir cap.
EAU33032
Changing the coolant
The coolant must be changed at the in-
tervals specified in the periodic mainte-
nance and lubrication chart. Have a
Yamaha dealer change the coolant.
WARNING! Never attempt to remove
the radiator cap when the engine is
hot.
