Coolant temperature warning light “”
If the coolant temperature reaches a specified lev-
el, this light comes on to warn that the coolant tem-
perature is too hot. If the light comes on during
operation, stop the engine as soon as it is safe to
do so and allow the engine to cool down for about
10 minutes. (See page 8-154.)
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.NOTICE

The engine may overheat if the vehicle is
overloaded. If this happens, reduce the load
to specification.


After restarting, make sure that the light is
out. Continuous use while the light is on
may cause damage to the engine.

Fuel
Make sure there is sufficient gasoline in the tank.
WARNING
Gasoline and gasoline vapors are extremely flam-
mable. To avoid fires and explosions and to re-
duce the risk of injury when refueling, follow these
instructions.1. Before refueling, turn off the engine and be
sure that driver and passenger are outside
the vehicle.
Never refuel while smoking, or while in the vi-
cinity of sparks, open flames, or other sourc-
es of ignition such as the pilot lights of water
heaters and clothes dryers.
2. Do not overfill the fuel tank. Because fuel ex-
pands when it heats up, heat from the engine
or the sun can cause fuel to spill out of the
fuel tank.
3. Wipe up any spilled fuel immediately.
4. Be sure the fuel tank cap is closed securely.
