HANDLING NOTE
WARNING
This shock absorber is provided with a
separate type tank filled with high-pressure
nitrogen gas. To prevent the danger of
explosion, read and understand the follow-
ing information before handling the shock
absorber.
The manufacturer can not be held respon-
sible for property damage or personal
injury that may result from improper han-
dling.
1. Never tamper or attempt to disassem-
ble the cylinder or the tank.
2. Never throw the shock absorber into
an open flame or other high heat. The
shock absorber may explode as a
result of nitrogen gas expansion and/
or damage to the hose.
3. Be careful not to damage any part of
the gas tank. A damaged gas tank will
impair the damping performance or
cause a malfunction.
4. Take care not to scratch the contact
surface of the piston rod with the cylin-
der; or oil could leak out.
5. Never attempt to remove the plug at
the bottom of the nitrogen gas tank. It
is very dangerous to remove the plug.
6. When scrapping the shock absorber,
follow the instructions on disposal.
EC587000
NOTES ON DISPOSAL (YAMAHA DEALERS
ONLY)
Before disposing the shock absorber, be sure
to extract the nitrogen gas from valve 1. Wear
eye protection to prevent eye damage from
escaping gas and/or metal chips.
WARNING
To dispose of a damaged or worn-out
shock absorber, take the unit to your
Yamaha dealer for this disposal procedure.

–+ELECMAP-CONTROLLED CDI UNIT
MAP-CONTROLLED CDI UNIT
A map-controlled, CDI ignition system is used in the WR426F/WR400F.
The microcomputer in the CDI unit detects the engine speed and throttle position, thus determining
the optimum ignition timing through the entire operating range. In this way, quick throttle response
can be achieved according to various riding conditions.
CDI unit
Throttle position sensor
Pickup coil CDI magneto rotorIgnition coil
Function of Component
Component Function
TPS
(throttle position sensor)Detects throttle valve opening and inputs it into the computer in the
CDI unit as a throttle opening signal.
Pickup coil Detects signal rotor revolutions and inputs them into the computer in
the CDI unit as engine revolution signals.
CDI unit The signals of the TPS and pickup coil sensor are analyzed by the
computer in the CDI unit, which then adjusts ignition timing for the
operation requirements.
Principal of 3-Dimensional Control
Conventionally, ignition timing was controlled only
by engine revolutions (2-dimensional control).
However, ignition timing needs advancement also
by engine load. Thus, accurate ignition timing can
be determined by adding throttle opening to deter-
mine ignition timing (3-dimensional control).
