If the warning light does not work as described above, or if the warning light comes on while riding, the ABS may not work correctly. Have a Yamaha dealer check the vehicle as soon as possible.

If the ABS warning light does not turn off after reaching 10 km/h (6 mi/h), or if the warning light comes on while riding:

  • Use extra caution to avoid possible wheel lock during emergency braking.
  • Have a Yamaha dealer check the vehicle as soon as possible.

If the oil pressure and coolant warning light does not go off after starting the engine or if it comes on while the engine is running, stop the vehicle and engine immediately.

  • If the engine is overheating, the coolant temperature warning icon will come on. Let the engine cool. Check the coolant level (see page ).
