Immobilizer system indicator light
The electrical circuit of the indicator
light can be checked by turning the key
to “ON”. The indicator light should
come on for a few seconds, and then
go off.
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.
When the key is turned to “OFF” and 30
seconds have passed, the indicator
light will start flashing indicating the im-
mobilizer system is enabled. After 24
hours have passed, the indicator light
will stop flashing, however the immobi-
lizer system is still enabled.
The self-diagnosis device also detects
problems in the immobilizer system cir-
cuits. (See page 3-15 for an explana-
tion of the self-diagnosis device.)

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 fuel consumption display (instan-
taneous and average consumption
functions)
●
a traction control system mode dis-
play (which shows the selected
traction control system mode)

cancel the currently selected
mode, and then repeat step 1 to
select the desired mode.
●
To reset all the recorded times for
the selected split time history,
push the “RESET” button for at
least one second.
4. Push the “SELECT” button for at
least one second to cancel the split
time history and return to the time
measurement.
Odometer, tripmeter, instantaneous
fuel consumption and average fuel
consumption modes 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”
or “L/100 km”, and the average fuel
consumption mode “AVE_ _._ km/L” or
“AVE_ _._ L/100 km” in the following or-
der:
ODO
→ TRIP 1 → TRIP 2 → km/L or
L/100 km → AVE_ _._ km/L or AVE_
_._ L/100 km → ODO
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.1. Odometer/tripmeter/fuel reserve tripmeter/in- stantaneous fuel consumption/average fuel

3If 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).●
“km/L”: The distance that can be
traveled on 1.0 L of fuel under the
current riding conditions is shown.
●
“L/100 km”: The amount of fuel
necessary to travel 100 km under
the current riding conditions is
shown.
●
“MPG” (for the UK only): The dis-
tance that can be traveled on
1.0 Imp.gal of fuel under the cur-
rent riding conditions is shown.
To switch between the instantaneous
fuel consumption displays, push the
“SELECT” button for one second when
one of the displays is shown.
TIPIf traveling at speeds under 10 km/h
(6.0 mi/h), “_ _._” is displayed.Average fuel consumption modeThe average fuel consumption display
can be set to either “AVE_ _._ km/L”,
“AVE_ _._ L/100 km” or “AVE_ _._
MPG” (for the UK only). This display shows the average fuel
consumption since it was last reset.
●
“AVE_ _._ km/L”: The average dis-
tance that can be traveled on 1.0 L
of fuel is shown.
●
“AVE_ _._ L/100 km”: The average
amount of fuel necessary to travel
100 km is shown.
●
“AVE_ _._ MPG” (for the UK only):
The average distance that can be
traveled on 1.0 Imp.gal of fuel is
shown.
To switch between the average fuel
consumption displays, push the “SE-
LECT” button for one second when one
of the displays is shown.
To reset the average fuel consumption
display, select it by pushing the “SE-
LECT” button, and then push the “RE-
SET” button for at least one second.
TIPAfter resetting an average fuel con-
sumption display, “_ _._” is shown for
that display until the vehicle has trav-
eled 1 km (0.6 mi).

Fuel Make sure there is sufficient gasoline in
the tank.
WARNING
EWA10881
Gasoline and gasoline vapors are
extremely flammable. To avoid fires
and explosions and to reduce the
risk of injury when refueling, follow
these instructions.1. Before refueling, turn off the en-gine and be sure that no one is sit-
ting on the vehicle. Never refuel
while smoking, or while in the vi-
cinity of sparks, open flames, or
other sources of ignition such as
the pilot lights of water heaters and
clothes dryers.
2. Do not overfill the fuel tank. When refueling, be sure to insert the
pump nozzle into the fuel tank filler
hole. Stop filling when the fuel
reaches the bottom of the filler
tube. Because fuel expands when
it heats up, heat from the engine or
the sun can cause fuel to spill out
of the fuel tank. 3. Wipe up any spilled fuel immedi-
ately. NOTICE: Immediately wipe
off spilled fuel with a clean, dry,
soft cloth, since fuel may deteri-
orate painted surfaces or plastic
parts.
[ECA10071]
4. Be sure to securely close the fuel tank cap.
WARNING
EWA15151
Gasoline is poisonous and can
cause injury or death. Handle gaso-
line with care. Never siphon gaso-
line by mouth. If you should swallow
some gasoline or inhale a lot of gas-
oline vapor, or get some gasoline in
your eyes, see your doctor immedi- ately. If gasoline spills on your skin,
wash with soap and water. If gaso-
line spills on your clothing, change
your clothes.
EAU13391
NOTICE
ECA11400
Use only unleaded gasoline. The use
of leaded gasoline will cause severe
damage to internal engine parts,
such as the valves and piston rings,
as well as to the exhaust system.Your Yamaha engine has been de-
signed to use premium unleaded gaso-
line with a research octane number of
95 or higher. If knocking (or pinging) oc-
