NOTICEECB02050If the voltage display indicates “LO” or
“HI”, there may be trouble with the battery
charging circuit or the battery may be
faulty. If this occurs, have a Yamaha dealer
check or repair the vehicle. Fuel meterThe fuel meter indicates the amount of fuel in
the fuel tank. The display segments of the fuel
meter disappear from “F” (full) towards “E”
(empty) as the fuel level decreases. When the
“E” segment disappears and the fuel level
warning indicator flashes, refuel as soon as
possible.
TIPThis fuel meter is equipped with a self-diag-
nosis system. If a problem is detected in an
electrical circuit, all the display segments and
fuel level warning indicator start flashing. If
this occurs, have a Yamaha dealer check the
electrical circuit.
