Neutral indicator light“”
This indicator light comes on when the
transmission is in the neutral position.
EAU11080
High beam indicator light“”
This indicator light comes on when the
high beam of the headlight is switched
on.
EAU11254
Oil level warning light“”
This warning light comes on if the en-
gine oil level is low.
The electrical circuit of the warning light
can be checked by turning the key to
“ON”. The warning light should come
on for a few seconds, and then go off.
If the warning light does not come on
initially when the key is turned to “ON”,
or if the warning light remains on, have
a Yamaha dealer check the electrical
circuit.TIP
Even if the oil level is sufficient, the
warning light may flicker when
riding on a slope or during sudden
acceleration or deceleration, but
this is not a malfunction.
This model is also equipped with a
self-diagnosis device for the oil
level detection circuit. If a problem
is detected in the oil level detection
circuit, the following cycle will be
repeated until the malfunction is
corrected: The oil level warning
light will flash ten times, then go off
for 2.5 seconds. If this occurs,
have a Yamaha dealer check the
vehicle.
EAU11365
Fuel level warning light“”
This warning light comes on when the
fuel level drops below approximately
3.1 L (0.82 US gal, 0.68 Imp.gal). When
this occurs, refuel as soon as possible.
The electrical circuit of the warning light
can be checked by turning the key to
“ON”. The warning light should come
on for a few seconds, and then go off.
If the warning light does not come on
initially when the key is turned to “ON”,
or if the warning light remains on, have
a Yamaha dealer check the electrical
circuit.
TIPThis model is also equipped with a self-
diagnosis device for the fuel level de-
tection circuit. If a problem is detected
in the fuel level detection circuit, the fol-
lowing cycle will be repeated until the
malfunction is corrected: The fuel level
warning light will flash eight times, and
then go off for 3.0 seconds. If this oc-
curs, have a Yamaha dealer check the
vehicle.
EAU47750
Coolant temperature warning
light“”
This warning light comes on if the en-
gine overheats. If this occurs, stop the
engine immediately and allow the en-
gine to cool.
The electrical circuit of the warning light
can be checked by turning the key to
“ON”. The warning light should come
on for a few seconds, and then go off.
If the warning light does not come on
initially when the key is turned to “ON”,
or if the warning light remains on, have
a Yamaha dealer check the electrical
circuit.

multi-function meter unit. Changingsettings while riding can distract the
operator and increase the risk of an
accident.
The multi-function meter unit is
equipped with the following:
a speedometer
a tachometer
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 fuel level warning light came
on)
a stopwatch
a clock
a coolant temperature display
an air intake temperature display
a transmission gear display
a drive mode display (which shows
the selected drive mode)
a throttle opening position display
a fuel consumption display (instan-
taneous and average consumption
functions)
a self-diagnosis device
a display brightness, shift timing
indicator light and throttle opening
position display control mode
TIP
Be sure to turn the key to “ON” be-
fore using the “SELECT” and “RE-
SET” buttons.
For the U.K. only: To switch the
speedometer and odometer/trip-
meter/fuel consumption displays
between kilometers and miles,
press the “SELECT” button for at
least one second.

When the key is turned to “ON”,
the coolant temperature is auto-
matically displayed, even if the air
intake temperature was displayed
prior to turning the key to “OFF”.
When the air intake temperature
display is selected, “A” is displayed
before the temperature.
Self-diagnosis device
This model is equipped with a self-diag-
nosis device for various electrical cir-
cuits.
If a problem is detected in any of those
circuits, the engine trouble warning light
comes on and the display indicates an
error code.The self-diagnosis device also detects
problems in the immobilizer system cir-
cuits.
If a problem is detected in the immobi-
lizer system circuits, the immobilizer
system indicator light flashes and the
display indicates an error code.
TIPIf the display indicates error code 52,
this could be caused by transponder in-
terference. If this error code appears,
try the following.1. Use the code re-registering key to
start the engine.TIPMake sure there are no other immobi-
lizer keys close to the main switch, and
do not keep more than one immobilizer
key on the same key ring! Immobilizer
system keys may cause signal interfer-
ence, which may prevent the engine
from starting.2. If the engine starts, turn it off and
try starting the engine with the
standard keys.3. If one or both of the standard keys
do not start the engine, take the
vehicle, the code re-registering
key and both standard keys to a
Yamaha dealer and have the stan-
dard keys re-registered.
If the display indicates any error codes,
note the code number, and then have a
Yamaha dealer check the vehicle.
NOTICE
ECA11590
If the display indicates an error
code, the vehicle should be checked
as soon as possible in order to avoid
engine damage.
