flashes while riding, the ABS may
not work correctly. If this occurs,
have a Yamaha dealer check the
electrical circuit.
See page 3-14 for an explanation of the
ABS.
The electrical circuit of the warning light
can be checked by setting the engine
stop switch to “
” and 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 or
remains on, have a Yamaha dealer
check the electrical circuit.
WARNING
EWA11350
When the ABS warning light comes
on or flashes while riding, the brake
system reverts to conventional brak-
ing. Therefore, be careful not to
cause the wheel to lock during emer-
gency braking.
TIP
The ABS warning light may come on
while accelerating the engine with the
scooter on its centerstand, but this
does not indicate a malfunction.

Immobilizer system indicator light
The electrical circuit of the indicator
light can be checked by turning the key
to “ON”.
If the indicator light does not come on
for a few seconds, then go off, have a
Yamaha dealer check the electrical cir-
cuit.
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.
This model is also equipped with a
self-diagnosis device for the immobiliz-
er system. (See page 3-9 for an expla-
nation of the self-diagnosis device.)

The speedometer shows the riding
speed.
When the key is turned to “ON”, the
speedometer needle will sweep once
across the speed range and then return
to zero in order to test the electrical cir-
cuit.
