warning
indicator “ ”
This indicator is shown when the cool-
ant temperature is too high. Stop the
vehicle and turn off the engine. Allow
the engine to cool.
NOTICE

Do not continue to operate the en-
gine if it is overheating.
Oil pressure warning indicator “
”
This indicator is shown when the en-
gine oil pressure is low. When the vehi-
cle power is first turned on, engine oil
pressure has yet to build up, therefore
this indicator will show until the engine
has been started.
TIP
If a malfunction is detected, the oil
pressure warning icon will flash repeat-
edly.
NOTICE
ECA26410
Do not continue to operate the en-
gine if the oil pressure is low.
Malfunction indicator (MIL) “
”
The MIL comes on or flashes if a prob-
lem is detected in the engine or other
vehicle control system. If this occurs,
have a Yamaha dealer check the on-
board diagnostic system. If the MIL re-
mains on, have a Yamaha dealer check
the vehicle.
NOTICE
ECA26820
If the MIL starts flashing, reduce en-
gine speed to prevent exhaust sys-
tem damage.
TIP
The engine is sensitively monitored by
the on-board diagnostic system to de-
tect deterioration or malfunction of the
emission control system. Therefore the
MIL may come on or flash due to vehi-
cle modifications, lack of maintenance,
or excessive/improper use of the vehi-
cle. To prevent this, observe these pre-
cautions.
Do not attempt to modify the soft-
ware of the engine control unit.
Do not add any electrical acces-
sories that interfere with engine
control.
Do not use aftermarket accesso-
ries or parts such as suspension,
spark plugs, injectors, exhaust
system, etc.
Do not change the drivetrain
specifications (chain, sprockets,
wheels, tires, etc.).
Do not remove or alter the O2 sen-
sor, air induction system, or ex-
haust parts (catalysts or EXUP,
etc.).
Maintain the drive chain properly.
Maintain correct tire pressure.
Maintain proper brake pedal
height to prevent rear brake from
dragging.
Do not operate the vehicle in an
extreme manner. For example, re-
peated or excessive opening and
closing of the throttle, racing,
burnouts, wheelies, extended
half-clutch use, etc.
