lock. EBU34932Shift light
This light can be set to come on and go off at
the desired engine speeds and is used to in-
form the driver when it is time to upshift.
The electrical circuit of the shift light can be
checked by turning the key to “ ” (on). If the
light does not come on initially when the key
is turned to “ ” (on), or if the light remains
on, have a Yamaha dealer check the electrical
circuit.TIPSee page 5-16 for an explanation of how to
set the shift light.
EBU35283Coolant 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
9-71.)TIPIf you continue to drive the vehicle while the
engine is overheating, a buzzer will sound.

When the battery voltage is low, “LO” will be
displayed. When the battery voltage is high,
“HI” will be displayed.
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 displayWhen the coolant temperature is in the nor-
mal operating range, the temperature will be
displayed. When the coolant temperature is

temperature rises, the coolant temperature
display will begin to flash. If the coolant tem-
perature continues to rise, the message “HI”
will flash.TIPThe coolant temperature display can be set
to “°C” or “°F”. To switch the temperature
