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 “RE-
SET” buttons.
●
When the key is turned to “ON”, all
of the display segments of the
multi-function display will appear
and then disappear, 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)/Trip
(top) → Odo/Trip (top)When approximately 2.0 L (0.53 US
gal, 0.44 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 will
automatically change to the fuel re-
serve tripmeter mode “Trip F” and start
counting the distance traveled from that
point. In that case, pushing the “SE-
LECT” button switches the display be-
tween the various tripmeter and
odometer modes in the following order:
Trip F/Trip (top) → Trip (bottom)/Trip
(top) → Odo/Trip (top) → Trip F/Trip

To reset a tripmeter, select it by push-
ing the “SELECT” button until “Trip” or
“Trip F” begins flashing (“Trip” or “Trip
F” will only flash for five seconds).
While “Trip” or “Trip F” is flashing, push
the “RESET” button for at least one
second. If you do not reset the fuel re-
serve tripmeter manually, it will reset it-self automatically and the display will
return to the prior mode after refueling
and traveling 5 km (3 mi).
TIPThe 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. (See
page 6-36.)

This indicator flashes at the initial 1000
km (600 mi), then at 6000 km (3500 mi)
and every 6000 km (3500 mi) thereafter
to indicate that the engine oil should be
changed.
After changing the engine oil, reset the
oil change indicator. (See page 6-10.)

Engine air filter and V-belt air filters
This model’s engine air filter is equipped with a disposable oil-coated paper element, which must not be cleaned with
compressed air to avoid damaging it.
The engine air filter element needs to be replaced and the V-belt air filter elements need to be serviced more frequent-
ly when riding in unusually wet or dusty areas.

6Before installing a spark plug, the spark
plug gap should be measured with a
wire thickness gauge and, if necessary,
adjusted to specification.
Clean the surface of the spark plug
gasket and its mating surface, and then
wipe off any grime from the spark plug
threads.
TIPIf a torque wrench is not available when
installing a spark plug, a good estimate
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.
EAUS1703
Engine oil The engine oil level should be checked
before each ride. In addition, the oil
must be changed at the intervals spec-
ified in the periodic maintenance and
lubrication chart and when the service
indicator light comes on.
To check the engine oil level
1. Place the scooter 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.TIPThe engine oil should be between the
minimum and maximum level marks.
1. Spark plug gapSpark plug gap:
0.8–0.9 mm (0.031–0.035 in)
Tightening torque:
Spark plug:
12.5 Nm (1.25 m·kgf, 9.04 ft·lbf)

mum level mark, add sufficient oil
of the recommended type to raise
it to the correct level.
5. Insert the dipstick into the oil filler
hole, and then tighten the oil filler
cap.
To change the engine oil (with or
without oil filter element replace-
ment)
1. Start the engine, warm it up for
several minutes, and then turn it
off.
2. Place an oil pan under the engine
to collect the used oil.3. Remove the engine oil filler cap
and the engine oil drain bolt to
drain the oil from the crankcase.
4. Check the drain bolt washer for
damage and replace it if neces-
sary.
TIPSkip steps 5–9 if the oil filter element is
not being replaced.5. Remove the oil filter element cover
by removing the bolts.
6. Remove the oil filter element and
