the ignition and lighting systems, and is
used to lock the steering. The various
positions are described below.TIPBe sure to use the standard key (black
bow) for regular use of the vehicle. To
minimize the risk of losing the code re-
registering key (red bow), keep it in a
safe place and only use it for code re-
registering.
EAU10550
ON

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

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.

making any setting changes to the
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.

3 For the UK only:
Push the “SELECT” button to switch
the display between the odometer
mode “ODO”, the tripmeter modes
“TRIP 1” and “TRIP 2”, the instanta-
neous fuel consumption mode “km/L”,
“L/100 km” or “MPG”, and the average
fuel consumption mode “AVE_ _._
km/L”, “AVE_ _._ L/100 km” or “AVE_
_._ MPG” in the following order:
ODO → TRIP 1 → TRIP 2 → km/L,
L/100 km or MPG → AVE_ _._ km/L,
AVE_ _._ L/100 km or AVE_ _._ MPG
→ ODO
If the fuel level warning light comes on
(see page 3-4), the display automatical-
ly changes to the fuel reserve tripmeter
mode “TRIP F” and starts counting the
distance traveled from that point. In that
case, push the “SELECT” button to
switch the display between the various
tripmeter, odometer, instantaneous fuel
consumption and average fuel con-
sumption modes in the following order:TRIP F → km/L or L/100 km → AVE_
_._ km/L or AVE_ _._ L/100 km →
ODO → TRIP 1 → TRIP 2 → TRIP F
For the UK only:
TRIP F → km/L, L/100 km or MPG →
AVE_ _._ km/L, AVE_ _._ L/100 km or
AVE_ _._ MPG → ODO → TRIP 1 →
TRIP 2 → TRIP F
To reset a tripmeter, select it by push-
ing the “SELECT” button, and then
push the “RESET” button for at least
one second.
If you do not reset the fuel reserve trip-
meter manually, it resets itself automat-
ically and the display returns to the prior
mode after refueling and traveling 5 km
(3 mi).Instantaneous fuel consumption mode
The instantaneous fuel consumption
display can be set to either “km/L”,
“L/100 km” or “MPG” (for the UK only).
When the display is set to “km/L”,
the distance that can be traveled
on 1.0 L of fuel under the current
riding conditions is shown.
When the display is set to “L/100
km”, the amount of fuel necessary
to travel 100 km under the current
riding conditions is shown.
For the UK only: When the display
is set to “MPG”, the distance that
can be traveled on 1.0 Imp.gal of
fuel under the current riding condi-
tions is shown.

shows how much the throttle is being
opened. The number of segments in-
creases as the throttle is being opened.
Refer to “Display brightness and shift
timing indicator light control mode” on
page 3-16.
TIPThe segments are displayed when the
engine is running.Drive mode display
This display indicates which drive
mode has been selected: “STD”, “A” or
“B”. For more details on the modes and
on how to select them, refer to pages
3-1 and 3-19.Coolant temperature display
The coolant temperature display indi-
cates the temperature of the coolant.
TIPWhen the coolant temperature display
is selected, “C” is displayed for one
second, and then the coolant tempera-
ture is displayed.NOTICE

Self-diagnosis device
This model is equipped with a self-diag-
nosis device for various electrical cir-
cuits.
If a problem is detected in the steering
damper circuit, the steering damper
warning light comes on and the display
indicates an error code.If a problem is detected in the immobi-
lizer system circuits, the immobilizer
system indicator light flashes and the
display indicates an error code.
If a problem is detected in any other cir-
cuit, the engine trouble warning light
comes on and the display indicates an
error code.
If the display indicates any error codes,
note the code number, and then have a
Yamaha dealer check the vehicle.
TIPIf the display indicates immobilizer sys-
tem circuit error code 52, this could be
caused by transponder interference. If
this error code appears, try following
the procedure below.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.NOTICE
ECA11590
If the display indicates an error
code, the vehicle should be checked
as soon as possible in order to avoid
engine damage.
