This indicator light comes on when the transmis-
sion is in the neutral position.EBU17900Coolant temperature warning light “”
This warning light comes on when the engine over-
heats. When this occurs during operation, stop the
engine as soon as it is safe to do so and allow it to
cool down for about 10 minutes.
The electrical circuit of the warning light can be
checked by turning the key to “ON”. If the light does
not come on, have a Yamaha dealer inspect the
electrical circuit.CAUTION:ECB00010The engine may overheat if the ATV is over-
loaded. In this case, reduce the load to spec-
ification.

warning light is out. Continuous use while
the warning light is on may cause damage tothe engine.EBU27280Engine trouble warning light “”
This warning light comes on or flashes when an
electrical circuit monitoring the engine is defective.
When this occurs, have a Yamaha dealer check
the self-diagnosis system. (See page 4-5 for an ex-
planation of the self-diagnosis device.)
The electrical circuit of the warning light can be
checked by turning the key to “ON”. If the warning
light does not come on, then go off, have a
Yamaha dealer check the electrical circuit.EBU27542Electric Power Steering warning light “EPS”
This warning light comes on when the key is turned
to “ON”, and then goes off once the engine is start-
ed. If the warning light remains on or comes on af-
ter the engine is started, the EPS system may be
defective. When this occurs, have a Yamaha deal-
er check the EPS system.The electrical circuit of the warning light can be
checked by turning the key to “ON”. If the warning
light does not come on, have a Yamaha dealer
check the electrical circuit.
NOTE:If the engine is stopped using the engine stop
switch and the key is in the “ON” position, the
EPS warning light comes on to indicate that the
power assistance for the steering is not function-
ing.If the steering load is too heavy (i.e., excessive
steering use when the ATV is traveling at a slow
speed), the power assist is reduced to protectthe EPS motor from overheating.EBU17961On-Command four-wheel-drive/differential
gear lock indicator “”/“”
The On-Command four-wheel-drive indicator “”
comes on when the On-Command four-wheel-
drive switch is set to the “4WD” position.

EBU27291Multifunction display The multifunction display is equipped with the fol-
lowing:a speedometer (which shows the riding speed)an odometer (which shows the total distance
traveled)two tripmeters (which show the distance trav-
eled since they were last set to zero)
a clockan hour meter (which shows the total time the
key has been turned to “ON”)a fuel metera self-diagnosis device
Odometer and tripmeter modes
Pushing the “SELECT” button switches the display
between the odometer mode “ODO” and the trip-
meter modes “A” and “B” in the following order:
ODO → TRIP A → TRIP B → ODO
To reset a tripmeter, select it by pushing the “SE-
LECT” button, and then push the “RESET” button
for at least three seconds. The tripmeters can be
used to estimate the distance that can be traveled
with a full tank of fuel. This information will enable
you to plan future fuel stops.
NOTE:Holding in the “SELECT” button and then turning
the key to “ON” switches the display between“mph” and “km/h”.
Clock mode
Pushing the “CLOCK” button switches the display
between the clock mode “CLOCK” and the hour
