Shift timing indicator light
This indicator light can be set to come
on and go off at the desired engine
speeds and is used to inform the rider
when it is time to shift to the next higher
gear.
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 cir-
cuit. (See page 4-23 for a detailed ex-
planation of the function of this indicator
light and on how to set it.)
EAU66901
Immobilizer system indicator light
“”
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 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 operate as
described above, have a Yamaha deal-
er check the vehicle.
If a problem is detected in the immobi-
lizer system, the immobilizer system in-
dicator light will flash and the display
will indicate an error code. (See “Error
mode” on page 4-13.)
EAU65980
Stability control indicator light “SC”
This indicator light comes on when the
TCS, SCS, or LIF systems have en-
gaged. It will also come on if the TCS is
set to “OFF” or if the TCS system be-
comes disabled while riding.
The electrical circuit of the light can be
checked by turning the key to “ON”.
The light should come on for a few sec-
onds and then go off. 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
vehicle.
EAU65991
Oil pressure and coolant tempera-
ture warning light
This warning light comes on if the en-
gine oil pressure is low or if the coolant
temperature is high. If this occurs, stop
the engine immediately.
The electrical circui
t of the warning light
can be checked by turning the key to
“ON”. The warning light should come
on again after going off briefly, and then
remain on until the engine is started. If
the warning light does not come on ini-
tially when the key is turned to “ON”,
have a Yamaha dealer check the elec-
trical circuit.NOTICE
ECA22441
If the oil pressure and coolant warn-
ing light does not go off after start-
ing the engine or if it comes on while
the engine is running, stop the vehi-
cle and engine immediately.
If the engine is overheating, the
coolant temperature warning
icon will come on. Let the en-
gine cool. Check the coolant
level (see page 7-38).
If the engine oil pressure is low,

12 and coolant warning light, comes on
when the engine oil pressure is low.
When the key is first turned to ON, en-
gine oil pressure has yet to build, so this
icon will come on and stay on until the
engine has been started.
NOTICE
ECA21210
If the warning light comes on when
the engine is running, stop the en-
gine immediately and check oil level.
If the oil level is below the minimum
level, add sufficient oil of the recom-
mended type to raise it up to the cor-
rect level. If the oil pressure warning
light remains on even if the oil level
is correct, immediately turn the en-
gine off and have a Yamaha dealercheck the vehicle.
Coolant temperature warning “ ”
This icon comes on if the coolant tem-
perature reaches 117
C (242 F) or
higher. Stop the vehicle and turn off the
engine. Allow the engine to cool.NOTICE
ECA10022
Do not continue to operate the en-
gine if it is overheating.
Error mode “Err”
When an error is detected, the top por-
tion of the main screen will switch to er-
ror mode. The following error-related
warning icons and error codes will then
be viewable.
SCU trouble warning icon
SCU error code
Engine trouble warning icon
ECU error code SCU trouble warning “ ”
(YZF-R1M)
The SCU trouble warning icon appears
if a problem is detected by the suspen-
sion control unit and an SCU error code
will be shown. Note the number and
have a Yamaha dealer check the vehi-
cle.
Engine trouble warning “ ”
The engine trouble warning icon ap-
pears if a problem is detected by the
engine control unit and an ECU error
code will be shown. Note the number
and have a Yamaha dealer check the
vehicle.
TIPIf the display indicates error code 52, or
if you have trouble starting the engine
with a standard key, this could be
caused by transponder interference. Ifthis occurs, try the following.
1. Make sure there are no other im- mobilizer keys, or other devices
which transmit electrical signals,
close to the main switch.
2. Use the code re-registering key to start the engine.

Tips for reducing fuel
consumptionFuel consumption depends largely on
your riding style. Consider the following
tips to reduce fuel consumption:
Shift up swiftly, and avoid high en-
gine speeds during acceleration.
Do not rev the engine while shifting
down, and avoid high engine
speeds with no load on the engine.
Turn the engine off instead of let-
ting it idle for an extended length of
time (e.g., in traffic jams, at traffic
lights or at railroad crossings).
EAU16842
Engine break-inThere is never a more important period
in the life of your engine than the period
between 0 and 1600 km (1000 mi). For
this reason, you should read the follow-
ing material carefully.
Since the engine is brand new, do not
put an excessive load on it for the first
1600 km (1000 mi). The various parts in
the engine wear and polish themselves
to the correct operating clearances.
During this period, prolonged full-throt-
tle operation or any condition that might
result in engine overheating must be
avoided.
EAU17085
0–1000 km (0–600 mi)
Avoid prolonged operation above 7000
r/min. NOTICE: After 1000 km (600
mi) of operation, the engine oil must
be changed and the oil filter car-
tridge or element replaced.
[ECA10303]
1000–1600 km (600–1000 mi)
Avoid prolonged operation above 8400 r/min.
1600 km (1000 mi) and beyond
The vehicle can now be operated nor-
mally.
NOTICE
ECA10311
Keep the engine speed out of
the tachometer red zone.
If any engine trouble should oc-
cur during the engine break-in
period, immediately have a
Yamaha dealer check the vehi-cle.
TIPDuring and after the engine break-in
period, the exhaust heat may cause
discoloration of the exhaust pipe, butthis is normal.

Engine overheating
WARNING
EWAT1041
Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine and radiator are hot. Scalding hot fluid and steam may be
blown out under pressure, which could cause serious injury. Be sure to wait until the engine has cooled.
Place a thick rag, like a towel, over the radiator cap, and then slowly rotate the cap counterclockwise to the de-
tent to allow any residual pressure to escape. When the hissing sound has stopped, press down on the capwhile turning it counterclockwise, and then remove the cap.
TIPIf coolant is not available, tap water can be temporarily
used instead, provided that it is changed to the recommended coolantas soon as possible.
Wait until the
engine has cooled.
Check the coolant level in the
reservoir and radiator.
The coolant level
is OK.The coolant level is low.
Check the cooling system
for leakage.
Have a Yamaha dealer checkand repair the cooling system.Add coolant. (See TIP.)
Start the engine. If the engine overheats again,
have a
Yamaha dealer check
and repair the cooling system.
There is
leakage.
There is
no leakage.
