The multi-function meter unit is
equipped with the following:
 a speedometer
 a tachometer
 an odometer
 two tripmeters
 a fuel reserve tripmeter
 a stopwatch
 a clock
 a coolant temperature display
 an air intake temperature display
 a self-diagnosis device
 a display brightness and shift tim-
ing indicator light control modeTIPExcept when entering the display

The speedometer shows the vehicle’s
traveling speed. Tachometer
The tachometer shows the engine
speed in crankshaft revolutions per mi-
nute (r/min).
When the vehicle is first powered on,
the tachometer needle will sweep once
across the r/min range and then return
to zero r/min in order to test the electri-
cal circuit.

The odometer shows the total distance
traveled by the vehicle.
The tripmeters show the distance trav-
eled since they were last reset.
TIP The odometer will lock at 999999.
 The tripmeters will reset and con-
tinue counting after 9999.9 is
reached.During normal operation, push the
“SELECT” button to change the dis-
play between the odometer “ODO”, the tripmeters “TRIP A” and “TRIP B”,
and the stopwatch in the following or-
der:
TRIP A
→ TRIP B → ODO → Stop-
watch → TRIP A
If the fuel level warning light comes on,
the display will automatically change to
the fuel reserve tripmeter “F-TRIP” and
start counting the distance traveled
from that point. In this case, push the
“SELECT” button to change the dis-
play in the following order:
F-TRIP → Stopwatch → TRIP A →
TRIP B → ODO → F-TRIP
To reset a tripmeter, push the “SE-
LECT” button to change the display to
the tripmeter you want to reset, and
then push the “RESET” button for one
second. If you do not reset the fuel re-
serve tripmeter manually, after refuel-

WARNING
EWA15152
Gasoline is poisonous an d can cau-
se injury or death. Han dle gasoline
with care. Never siphon gasoline by
mouth. If you shoul d swallow some
g asoline or inhale a lot of gasoline
vapor, or get some g asoline in your
eyes, see your d octor immediately. If g
asoline spills on your skin, wash
with soap an d water. If gasoline
spills on your clothin g, chan ge your
clothes.
EAU54602
NOTICE
ECA11401
Use only unlea ded g asoline. The use
of lead ed g asoline will cause severe
d amag e to internal en gine parts,
such as the valves an d piston rin gs,
as well as to the exhaust system.Your Yamaha engine has been de-
signed to use premium unleaded gas-
oline with a research octane number of
95 or higher. If knocking (or pinging)
occurs, use a gasoline of a different brand. Use of unleaded fuel will extend
spark plug life and reduce mainte-
nance costs.
Gasohol
There are two types of gasohol: gaso-
hol containing ethanol and that con-
taining methanol. Gasohol containing
ethanol can be used if the ethanol con-
tent does not exceed 10% (E10). Gas-
ohol containing methanol is not
recommended by Yamaha because it
can cause damage to the fuel system
or vehicle performance problems.
