Indicator and warning lights
EAU11020
Turn signal indicator light “”
This indicator light flashes when the
turn signal switch is pushed to the left or
right.
EAU11060
Neutral indicator light “”
This indicator light comes on when the
transmission is in the neutral position.
EAU37611
Gear position indicator lights “1 ”
“ 2 ” “ 3 ”, and “4 ”
The respective indicator light comes on
when the transmission is in the 1st,
2nd, 3rd or 4th gear position.
EAU11080
High beam indicator light “”
This indicator light comes on when the
high beam of the headlight is switched
on.
EAU37631
Coolant temperature warning light
“”
This warning light comes on when the
engine overheats. When this occurs,
stop the engine immediately and allow
the engine to cool.
This warning light also has a self-diag-
nosis device function for various electri-
cal circuits.
When the main switch is turned to
“ ON ” and the engine is not run-
ning, the warning light will flash if
an electrical circuit is defective. If
this occurs, have a Yamaha dealer
check the vehicle.
When the engine is running, the
warning light will come on if the en-
gine overheats or if an electrical
circuit is defective.
To determine which of the above is
occurring, stop the vehicle when it
is safe to do so, then turn the main
switch to “OFF ”, and then back to
“ ON ”.
If the warning light stays on, this in-
dicates the engine is overheating.
Keep the engine turned off and al-
low it to cool.
CAUTION:
ECA10020
Do not operate the engine if it isoverheated.
If the warning light flashes, this in-
dicates there is a defective electri-
cal circuit. Have a Yamaha dealer
check the vehicle.
The electrical circuit of the warning light
can be checked by turning the key to
“ ON ”.
If the warning light does not come on
for a few seconds, then go off, have a
Yamaha dealer check the electrical cir- cuit.

EAU15950
WARNING
EWA10270
Become thoroughly familiar
with all operating controls and
their functions before riding.
Consult a Yamaha dealer re-
garding any control or function
that you do not thoroughly un-
derstand.
Never start the engine or oper-
ate it in a closed area for any
length of time. Exhaust fumes
are poisonous, and inhaling
them can cause loss of con-
sciousness and death within a
short time. Always make sure
that there is adequate ventila-
tion.
Before starting out, make sure
that the sidestand is up. If the
sidestand is not raised com-
pletely, it could contact the
ground and distract the opera-
tor, resulting in a possible lossof control.
EAU37640
Starting and warming up a
cold engine 1. Turn the key to “ON”.
2. Shift the transmission into the neu-
tral position.NOTE:
When the transmission is in the neutral
position, the neutral indicator light
should be on, otherwise have a
Yamaha dealer check the electrical cir-cuit.
3. Place the vehicle on the center-
stand.
WARNING
EWA14200
Before starting the engine, make
sure the transmission is in neutral
and that the vehicle is placed on thecenterstand.
4. Turn the starter (choke) on and
completely close the throttle. (See
page 3-7.)
5. Start the engine by pushing the
start switch or by pushing the kick-
starter lever down.
NOTE:If the engine fails to start by pushing the
start switch, release the switch, wait a
few seconds, and then try again. Each
starting attempt should be as short as
possible to preserve the battery. Do not
crank the engine more than 10 seconds
on any one attempt. If the engine does
not start with the starter motor, try usingthe kickstarter.CAUTION:
ECA15170
The coolant temperature warning
light should come on when the key
is turned to “ON”, and then go off af-
ter a few seconds. If the coolant tem-
perature warning light comes on
after starting, immediately stop the
engine, and have a Yamaha dealercheck the electrical circuit.
6. After starting the engine, move the
starter (choke) back halfway.

CAUTION:
ECA10420
Before installing the engine oil drain
bolt, do not forget to install the O-
ring, compression spring, and oilstrainer in position.
9. Add the specified amount of the
recommended engine oil, and then
install and tighten the oil filler cap.CAUTION:
ECA11620
In order to prevent clutch slip-
page (since the engine oil also
lubricates the clutch), do not
mix any chemical additives. Donot use oils with a diesel speci-
fication of “CD” or oils of a high-
er quality than specified. In
addition, do not use oils labeled
“ENERGY CONSERVING II” or
higher.
Make sure that no foreign mate-rial enters the crankcase.
10. Start the engine, and then let it idle
for several minutes while checking
it for oil leakage. If oil is leaking, im-
mediately turn the engine off and
check for the cause.
11. Turn the engine off, and then
check the oil level and correct it if
necessary.
EAU20070
Coolant The coolant level should be checked
before each ride. In addition, the cool-
ant must be changed at the intervals
specified in the periodic maintenance
and lubrication chart.
EAU37510
To check the coolant level
The coolant level should be checked as
follows before each ride. In addition,
the coolant must be changed at the in-
tervals specified in the periodic mainte-
nance and lubrication chart.
1. Place the vehicle on the center-
stand.NOTE:
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 theside can result in a false reading.
2. Check the coolant level in the cool-
ant reservoir.

Recommended engine oil:
See page 8-1.
Oil quantity:
With oil filter element replacement:
0.90 L (0.95 US qt) (0.79 Imp.qt)

NOTE:The coolant should be between theminimum and maximum level marks.3. If the coolant is at or below the minimum level mark, remove cowl-
ing A. (See page 6-5.)
4. Loosen the coolant reservoir cap retainer bolt, and then lift the re-
tainer upward.
5. Remove the coolant reservoir cap, and then add coolant to the maxi-
mum level mark.
CAUTION:
ECA10470
use only YAMAHA GENUINE
COLANT. Using coolan other than
recommended, could cause damage
to oil seal and o-rings, as whell
as to the cooling system. If water has been used instead
of coolant, replace it with cool-
ant as soon as possible, other-
wise the engine may not be sufficiently cooled and the cool-
ing system will not be protected
against frost and corrosion.
If water has been added to the
coolant, have a Yamaha dealer
check the antifreeze content of
the coolant as soon as possible,
otherwise the effectiveness ofthe coolant will be reduced.WARNING
EWA10380
Never attempt to remove the radiatorcap when the engine is hot.
6. Install the coolant reservoir cap.
7. Place the coolant reservoir cap re- tainer in the original position, and
then tighten the bolt to the speci-
fied torque.
8. Install the cowling.

Changing the coolant
WARNING
EWA10380
Never attempt to remove the radiatorcap when the engine is hot.
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.
EAU37661
Cleaning the air filter element The air filter element should be cleaned
at the intervals specified in the periodic
maintenance and lubrication chart.
Clean the air filter element more fre-
quently if you are riding in unusually
wet or dusty areas.
1. Remove panel A. (See page 6-5.)
2. Remove the air filter case cover by
removing the screws and clamp,
and then pull the air filter element
out.3. Lightly tap the air filter element to
remove most of the dust and dirt,
and then blow the remaining dirt
out with compressed air as shown.
If the air filter element is damaged,
replace it.1. Air filter case cover

6Engine overheating
WARNING
EWA10400
Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine and radiator are hot. Scalding hot fluid and steam may be
blown out under pressure, which could cause serious injury. Be sure to wait until the engine has cooled.
After removing the radiator cap retaining bolt, place a thick rag, like a towel, over the radiator cap, and then
slowly rotate the cap counterclockwise to the detent to allow any residual pressure to escape. When the hissingsound has stopped, press down on the cap while turning it counterclockwise, and then remove the cap.
NOTE:If coolant is not available, tap water can be temporarily used instead, provided that it is changed to the recommended coolantas soon as possible.
Wait until the
engine has cooled.
Check the coolant level in the
reservoir and radiator.
The coolant level
is OK.The coolant level is low.
Check the cooling system
for leakage.
Have a Yamaha dealer checkand repair the cooling system.Add coolant. (See NOTE.)
Start the engine. If the engine overheats again,
have a
Yamaha dealer check
and repair the cooling system.
There is
leakage.
There is
no leakage.
