Indicator lights and warning
lights
EAU11032Turn signal indicator lights “ ”
and“”
Each indicator light will flash when its
corresponding turn signal lights are
flashing.
EAU11061Neutral indicator light “ ”
This indicator light comes on when the
transmission is in the neutral position.
EAU11081High beam indicator light “ ”
This indicator light comes on when the
high beam of the headlight is switched
on.
EAU59962Oil pressure warning light “ ”
This warning light comes on if the en-
gine oil pressure is low.The electrical circuit of the warning
light can be checked by turning the key
to “ON”. The warning light should
come on again after going off briefly,
and then remain on until the engine is
started.
If the warning light does not come on
initially when the key is turned to “ON”,
have a Yamaha dealer check the elec-
trical circuit.
NOTICE
ECA21210
If the warning light comes on when
the engine is running, stop the en-
gine immediately and check oil level.
If the oil level is below the minimum
level, add sufficient oil of the recom-
mended t y p e t o r a i s e i t u p t o t h e c o r -
rect level. If the oil pressure warning
light remains on even if the oil level
is correct, immediately turn the en-
gine off and have a Yamaha dealer
check the vehicle.
TIP
If the warning light does not go off after
starting the engine, check the engine
oil level and add oil if necessary. (See
page 6-9.)
If the warning light remains on after
adding engine oil, have a Yamaha
dealer check the vehicle.

3Push the left set button to change the
display between the odometer “ODO”,
tripmeters “TRIP 1” and “TRIP 2”, in-
stantaneous fuel consumption “km/L”,
“L/100 km” or “MPG”, average fuel
consumption “AVE_ _._ km/L”, “AVE_

AVE_ _._ L/100 km or AVE_ _._ MPG →
_ _ °C → Air_ _ °C → ODO
TIP
Push the right set button to change the
display in the reverse order.
Odometer and tripmeters
The odometer shows the total distance
traveled by the vehicle.
The tripmeters show the distance trav-
eled since they were last reset.
To reset a tripmeter, use the left set
button to display the tripmeter you
want to reset, and then push the right
set button for one second.
TIP
The odometer will lock at 999999.
The tripmeters will lock at 9999.9
but can be manually reset.
Fuel reserve tripmeter
When the fuel level becomes low, the
last segment of the fuel meter will start
flashing. The fuel reserve tripmeter
“TRIP F” will automatically appear and
start counting the distance traveledfrom that point. In this case, push the
left set button to switch the display in
the following order:
TRIP F → km/L or L/100 km → AVE_
_._ km/L or AVE_ _._ L/100 km → _ _
°C → Air_ _ °C → ODO → TRIP 1 →
TRIP 2 → TRIP F
For the UK:

AVE_ _._ km/L, AVE_ _._ L/100 km or
AVE_ _._ MPG → _ _ °C → Air_ _ °C →
ODO → TRIP 1 → TRIP 2 → TRIP F
TIP
Push the right set button to
change the display in the reverse
order.
You can manually reset the fuel re-
serve tripmeter, or after refueling
and traveling 5 km (3 mi), it will re-
set automatically and disappear
from the display.
Instantaneous fuel consumption
This function calculates the fuel con-
sumption under current riding condi-
tions.
The instantaneous fuel consumption
can be set to either “km/L”, “L/100 km”
or “MPG” (for the UK).

3The coolant temperature varies
with changes in the weather and
engine load.
Air temperature
This shows the air temperature from –9
°C to 99 °C in 1 °C increments. The
temperature displayed may vary from
the ambient temperature.
TIP
When the temperature is below –9
°C, “LO” will be displayed.
The accuracy of the temperature
reading may be affected by engine
heat when riding slowly (under 20
km/h [12 mi/h]) or when stopped
at traffic signals, etc.
Brightness control modeThe brightness control mode allows
you to adjust the brightness level of the
multi-function meter unit.
To adjust the brightness

2. Push and hold the left set button.
3. Turn the key to “ON” and continue
pushing the left set button until the
display switches to the brightness
control mode.
4. Push the right set button to set the
brightness level.
5. Push the left set button to confirm
the selected brightness level and
exit the brightness control mode.

ating condition. Always follow the inspection and maintenance procedures and
schedules described in the Owner’s Manual.

TIP
Air filter
• This model’s air filter is equipped with a disposable oil-coated paper ele-
ment, which must not be cleaned with compressed air to avoid damaging
it.
• The air filter element needs to be replaced more frequently when riding in
unusually wet or dusty areas.
Hydraulic brake service
• Regularly check and, if necessary, correct the brake fluid level.
• Every two years replace the internal components of the brake master cyl-
inders and calipers, and change the brake fluid.
• Replace the brake hoses every four years and if cracked or damaged.
26Engine oil filter
cartridge• Replace.√√√

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.
EAU20095To 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 tem-
perature.
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. Check the coolant level in the
coolant reservoir.
TIP
The coolant should be between the
minimum and maximum level marks.
3. If the coolant is at or below the
minimum level mark, remove the
reservoir cap. WARNING! Re-
move only the coolant reservoir
cap. Never attempt to remove
the radiator cap when the en-
gine is hot.
[EWA15162]
4. Add coolant to the maximum level
mark, and then install the reservoir
cap. 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.

EAUM3791To change the coolant
1. Place the vehicle on a level sur-
face and let the engine cool if nec-
essary.
2. Remove cowlings A, B, and C.
(See page 6-7.)
3. Place a container under the en-
gine to collect the used coolant.
4. Remove the radiator cap retaining
bolt and radiator cap. WARNING!
Never attempt to remove the ra-
diator cap when the engine is
hot.
[EWA10382]
5. Remove the coolant reservoir cov-
er by removing the bolt and quick
fastener, and then remove the
coolant reservoir.
TIP
The quick fastener is removed by
pushing the center pin in with a screw-
driver, and then pulling the fastener
out.
6. Remove the coolant reservoir cap.
7. Drain the coolant from the coolant
reservoir by turning it upside
down.
8. Install the coolant reservoir and its
cover by placing them in the origi-
nal position, and then installing the
bolt and quick fastener.
TIP
To install the quick fastener, push the
center pin out so that it will protrude
from the fastener head, insert the fas-
tener into the coolant reservoir, and
then push the protruding pin in until it is
flush with the fastener head.

69. Remove the coolant drain bolt and
its gasket to drain the coolant from
the cooling system.
10. After the coolant is completely
drained, thoroughly flush the cool-
ing system with clean tap water.
11. Install the coolant drain bolt and
its new gasket, and then tighten
the bolt to the specified torque.
12. Pour the specified amount of the
recommended coolant into the ra-
diator and reservoir.13. Install the coolant reservoir cap.
14. Install the radiator cap.
15. Start the engine, let it idle for sev-
eral minutes, and then turn it off.
16. Remove the radiator cap to check
the coolant level in the radiator. If
necessary, add sufficient coolant
until it reaches the top of the radi-
ator, and then install the radiator
cap and radiator cap retaining
bolt.
17. Check the coolant level in the res-
ervoir. If necessary, remove the
coolant reservoir cap, add coolant
to the maximum level mark, and
then install the cap.
18. Install the cowlings.
19. Start the engine, and then check
the vehicle for coolant leakage. If
coolant is leaking, have a Yamaha
dealer check the cooling system.
