Indicator Lamps

Lamp	Indicates	Condition
	Cruise Control Status	Amber Lamp: Cruise control is enabled, but not set. When flashing, a cruise control related fault exists. Green Lamp: Cruise control is set to the desired speed. Read the safety and operation procedures before using cruise control.
	Turn Signals	One arrow flashes when the corresponding turn signal is activated. Both arrows flash when the hazard signal is activated. If there is a problem in the signal system, the lamps will flash at twice the normal rate.
	Vehicle Speed	When standard mode is selected, speed displays in miles per hour.
	Vehicle Speed	When metric mode is selected, speed displays in kilometers per hour.
	High Beam	The headlight switch is set to high beam. This indicator will flash if there is a problem with the low or high beam light.
	Neutral	The transmission is in neutral and the power switch is ON.
	Low Fuel	This lamp illuminates when approximately one gallon (3.8 liters) of fuel remains in the fuel tank. The LCD Display will switch into a Low Fuel Mileage Counter Mode to provide the rider with mileage tracking from the time the indicator was activated.
	Sidestand Light	The sidestand light will turn on anytime the sidestand is down.
	Engine Hot	This lamp illuminates to indicate an overheated engine. If the indicator flashes, a severe overheating condition exists.
	Chassis Fault	The alert symbol illuminates if a chassis fault occurs.
	Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)	The TPMS indicator illuminates if low tire pressure is detected. It will also illuminate along with the Low Battery Voltage indicator when TPMS battery power is low, requiring service.
	Traction Control	This lamp illuminates when traction control is engaged.
	Security	The security indicator illuminates when the security system is activated.
	ABS Not Activated	The indicator remains on until the anti-lock system activates, which occurs when vehicle speed exceeds 6 MPH (10 km/h). When the lamp is illuminated, the anti-lock brakes will not activate, but the conventional brake system will continue to operate normally.
	Check Engine	This lamp illuminates briefly when the power switch is turned ON. This indicates proper function. If this lamp illuminates while the engine is running, see an authorized dealer promptly. The light will remain on if the tilt sensor shuts down the engine. If abnormal sensor or engine operation is detected the light will remain on as long as the fault condition exists. Retrieve the error codes for diagnosis.
	Low Oil Pressure	This lamp illuminates when oil pressure drops below a safe operating pressure while the engine is running. If this lamp illuminates while the engine is running above idle speed, turn the engine off as soon as safely possible and check the oil level. If the oil level is correct and the lamp remains on after the engine is restarted, turn the engine off immediately. See your dealer.

Speedometer

The speedometer displays forward vehicle speed in either miles per hour or kilometers per hour.

Tachometer

The tachometer displays engine speed in revolutions per minute (RPM). A red line on the face of the gauge indicates the maximum safe engine speed.

Excessive engine speed can cause engine damage or failure, which could result in serious injury or death. Do not allow engine speed to exceed the red line.

Fuel Gauge Display

The fuel gauge displays fuel level. For the most accurate reading, sit on the motorcycle and bring it to the upright position.

The segments of the fuel gauge show the level of fuel in the fuel tank. When the last segment clears, a low fuel warning is activated. All segments including the fuel icon will flash. Refuel promptly.

Rear Cylinder Deactivation (if equipped)

Designed as an aid to reduce engine and exhaust heat to the rider, Rear Cylinder Deactivation turns off the rear cylinder when the engine gets hot.

The following condition must be met for Rear Cylinder Deactivation to be enabled.

Engine must be up to operating temperature
Ambient Temperature must exceed 15°C (59°F)
Engine speed must remain below 1000 rpm
Gear position must be 1, 2, or N
Throttle must be in the closed position (0% throttle)

Cylinder Deactivation can be turned off by accessing the settings menu in the drop-down from the top of the screen. Cylinder Deactivation controls are in the Vehicle menu. When Rear Cylinder Deactivation is functioning, an icon will illuminate at the top of the Ride Command display screen.
