Immobilizer system
This vehicle is equipped with an immo-
bilizer system to help prevent theft by
re-registering codes in the standard
keys. This system consists of the fol-
lowing.
●
a code re-registering key (with a
red bow)
●
two standard keys (with a black
bow) that can be re-registered with
new codes
●
a transponder (which is installed in
the code re-registering key)
●
an immobilizer unit
●
an ECU (Electronic Control Unit)
●
an immobilizer system indicator
light (See page 3-7.)
The key with the red bow is used to reg-
ister codes in each standard key. Since
re-registering is a difficult process, take
the vehicle along with all three keys to
a Yamaha dealer to have them re-reg-
istered. Do not use the key with the red
bow for driving. It should only be used
for re-registering the standard keys. Al-
ways use a standard key for driving.
CAUTION:

●
DO NOT LOSE THE CODE RE-
REGISTERING KEY! CONTACT
YOUR DEALER IMMEDIATELY
IF IT IS LOST! If the code re-reg-
istering key is lost, registering
new codes in the standard keys
is impossible. The standard
keys can still be used to start
the vehicle, however if code re-
registering is required (i.e., if a
new standard key is made or all
keys are lost) the entire immobi-
lizer system must be replaced.
Therefore, it is highly recom-
mended to use either standard
key and keep the code re-regis-
tering key in a safe place.
●
Do not submerse any key in wa-
ter.
●
Do not expose any key to exces-
sively high temperatures.
●
Do not place any key close to
magnets (this includes, but not
limited to, products such as
speakers, etc.).
●
Do not place items that transmit
electrical signals close to any
key.
●
Do not place heavy items on any
key.
●
Do not grind any key or alter its
shape.
●
Do not disassemble the plastic
part of any key.
●
Do not put two keys of any im-
mobilizer system on the same
key ring.
●
Keep the standard keys as well
as keys of other immobilizer
systems away from this vehi-
cle’s code re-registering key.
