EBU34931Shift timing indicator light
This indicator light can be set to come on and
go off at the desired engine speeds and is
u s ed t o i n fo rm t h e dr iv er wh e n it i s ti m e t o u p -
shift.
The electrical circuit of the indicator light can
be checked by turning the key to “ ” (on). If
the indicator light does not come on initially
when the key is turned to “ ” (on), or if the
indicator light remains on, have a Yamaha
dealer check the electrical circuit.TIPSee page 4-16 for a detailed explanation of
this indicator light and how to set it. EBU35282Coolant temperature warning light “ ”
This warning light comes on when the coolant
temperature, and therefore the engine, is out-
side its normal operating temperature range.The warning light comes on in blue to inform
the driver that the vehicle should be warmed
up. After the engine is started, warm it up until
the warning light goes off.
The vehicle can be operated normally when
the warning light is off.
The warning light comes on in red when the
engine is overheating. If the red light comes
on, stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do
so and allow the engine to idle for about 10
minutes. If the warning light does not go off,
stop the engine and allow it to cool. (See page
8-67.)
TIPThe coolant temperature warning light can be
checked by turning the key to “ ” (on). The
warning light should come on in purple briefly
(which confirms that both the blue and red in-
dicators are okay) and then go off. If the warn-
ing light does not come on at all, comes on in
red or blue, or if the warning light remains on,
have a Yamaha dealer check the vehicle.

sion is shifted into neutral, the vehicle
may roll downhill and possibly cause an
accident, serious injury or death. EBU31360Helmet indicator light “ ”
The indicator light comes on and stays on
while the key is turned to “ ” (on) to remind
the occupants to always wear a helmet. If the
indicator light does not come on when the key
is turned to “ ” (on), have a Yamaha dealer
check the electrical circuit.EBU31370Seat belt indicator light “ ”
The indicator light comes on when the key is
turned to “ ” (on) to remind the occupants
to fasten their seat belt. The indicator light
stays on until the driver seat belt is properly
latched. If the indicator light does not come
on when the key is turned to “ ” (on), or if
the indicator light remains on after the driver
seat belt is properly latched, have a Yamaha
dealer check the electrical circuit.

“TRIP A” and “TRIP B” in the following order:
ODO → TRIP A → TRIP B → ODO
To reset a tripmeter, set the display to the
tripmeter you want to reset, then push the
“RESET” button for three seconds.TIP The odometer will lock at 99999.
 The tripmeters will reset and continue
counting after 9999.9 is reached.
Clock, hour meter, voltage display and

The hour meter shows the total time the en-
gine has been running.
The voltage display shows the battery volt-
age.

Push the “MODE” button to switch between
the clock “CLOCK”, the hour meter “HOUR”,
the voltage display “VOLTAGE”, and the
coolant temperature display in the following
order:
CLOCK → HOUR → VOLTAGE → coolant
temperature → CLOCKTIPIf the engine overheats, the coolant tempera-
ture warning light will come on, and the cool-
ant temperature display will be automatically
selected. To set the clock1. Set the display to the clock.
2. Push both the “SELECT” button and
“RESET” button for th ree seconds. The
hour digits will start flashing.
3. Push the “RESET” button to set the hours. 4. Push the “SELECT” button, and the mi-
nute digits will start flashing.
5. Push the “RESET” button to set the minu- tes.
6. Push the “SELECT” button, and then re-
lease it to start the clock.
Voltage display
This display shows “ ” and the battery volt-
age.
If the battery voltage is less than 10 volts,
“LO” is displayed, and if the voltage is above
16 volts, “HI” is displayed.1. Voltage display

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. Coolant temperature displayThis shows the coolant temperature from 0
°C (32 °F) to 128 °C (263 °F) in 1 °C (1 °F) in-
crements. When the coolant temperature isbelow 0 °C (32 °F), “LO” will be displayed.
When the coolant temperature is between
122 °C (252 °F) and 128 °C (263 °F), the cool-
ant temperature display will flash. In this case,
stop the vehicle in a safe place and let it idle
for 10 minutes. If the message “HI” flashes,
stop the engine and let it cool. (See page
8-67.)
TIP
The coolant temperature display can be set
to “°C” or “°F”. To switch the temperature
units, turn the key to “ ” (off), then hold
the “RESET” button pushed and turn the
key to “ ” (on).
 The coolant temperature varies with chang-
es in the weather and engine load.

EBU35322TransmissionMake sure there is no oil leaking from the
transmission case.EBU31760CoolantCheck the coolant level in the coolant reser-
voir when the engine is cold (the coolant level
will vary with engine temperature).
The coolant level is satisfactory if it is be-
tween the minimum and maximum level
marks on the coolant reservoir. If the coolant
level is at or below the minimum level mark,
add additional coolant to bring the level up to
maximum level mark. If coolant is not avail-
able, add distilled water. Change the coolant
every two years. (See page 8-33.)NOTICEECB02120Hard water or salt water is harmful to the
engine. You may use soft water if you can-
not get distilled water.
EBU36020Final gearMake sure there is no oil leaking from the final
gear case.EBU36030Differential gearMake sure there is no oil leaking from the dif-
ferential gear case.EBU31790Accelerator pedalCheck to see that the accelerator pedal oper-
ates correctly. It must operate smoothly and
spring back to the idle position fully when re-
leased. Have a Yamaha dealer repair as nec-
essary for proper operation.Coolant reservoir capacity (up to the maxi-
mum level mark): 0.31 L (0.33 US qt, 0.28 Imp.qt)

10–20 hours:
Avoid prolonged operation above 6300 r/min.
After break-in:
The vehicle may now be operated normally.EBU36560Starting the engine1. Turn the key to “ ” (on).NOTICEECB03340The coolant temperature warning light,
YCC-S system warning light, and engine
trouble warning light should come on, then
go off.
The EPS warning light should come on,
then go off when the engine is started.
To avoid possible damage, do not operate
the vehicle if a warning light does not work
as described above. 2. Press the brake pedal.
3. Shift the transmission into neutral.
When the transmission is in the neutral
position, the transmission gear display
shows “N” and the neutral indicator
light should come on.
 The engine can be started in any gear if
the brake pedal is applied. However, it
is recommended to shift into neutral
before starting the engine.
4. With your foot off the accelerator pedal, start the engine by turning the key to “ ”
(start).
If the engine fails to start, release the key, and
then try starting it again. Wait a few seconds
before the next attempt. Each attempt should
be as short as possible, to preserve battery
energy. NOTICE: Do not crank the engine
more than 5 seconds on each attempt, or
starter damage could occur. Wait at least
5 seconds between each operation of the
electric starter to let it cool.
[ECB02140]
Do not turn the key to the “ ” (start) position
with the engine running; otherwise, damage
to the electric starter may result.

3. Check the coolant level when the engineis cold (the coolant level will vary with en-
gine temperature).TIPThe coolant level in the coolant reservoir
should be between the minimum and maxi-
mum level marks. 4. If the coolant level is at or below the mini-
mum level mark, remove the coolant res-
ervoir cap and add coolant to the maximum level mark.
NOTICE: If cool-
ant is not available, use distilled water
or soft tap water instead. Do not use
hard water or salt water since they are
harmful to the engine. If water has
been used instead of coolant, replace
it with coolant as soon as possible,
otherwise the cooling system will not
be protected against frost and corro-
sion. 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 ef-
fectiveness of the coolant will be re-
duced.
