EBU26933Oil temperature warning light “ ”
This warning light comes on when the engine
overheats. When this occurs, stop the engine as
soon as it is safe to do so, and allow it to cool.
The electrical circuit of the warning light can be
checked by turning the key to “ON”, with the en-
gine stop switch set to “ ”, and then pushing the
start switch.
If the warning light does not come on while the
start switch is being pushed, or if the warning light
remains on after the start switch is released, have
a Yamaha dealer check the electrical circuit.
If the warning light stays on when the engine is
cool, have a Yamaha dealer check the electrical
circuit.NOTICEECB00011The engine may overheat if the ATV is over-
loaded. In this case, reduce the load to spec-
ification.
Start the engine after making sure that the
warning light is out. Continuous use while
the warning light is on may cause damage to
the engine.
EBU17953On-Command four-wheel-drive indicator
light “ ”
This indicator light comes on when the On-Com-
mand four-wheel-drive switch is set to the “4WD”
position.TIPDue to the synchronizing mechanism in the differ-
ential gear case, the light may not come on until
the ATV starts moving. EBU18024SpeedometerThis speedometer is equipped with an odometer
and a tripmeter. The tripmeter can be reset to zero
with the reset knob. Use the tripmeter to estimate
how far you can ride on a tank of fuel before going
to reserve. This information will enable you to plan
fuel stops in the future.

WARNING
EWB00164Always stop the ATV before changing from
two-wheel drive to four-wheel drive and vice
versa. The ATV handles differently in two-
wheel drive than in four-wheel drive in some
circumstances. Changing from two-wheel
drive to four-wheel drive or vice versa while
moving may cause the ATV to unexpectedly
handle differently. This could distract the oper-
ator and increase the risk of losing control and
of causing an accident. This ATV is equipped with a switch to change from
two-wheel drive to four-wheel drive and vice ver-
sa. Select the appropriate drive according to the
terrain and the conditions.
“2WD” (two-wheel drive): Power is supplied to
the rear wheels.
“4WD” (four-wheel drive): Power is supplied to
the rear and front wheels. To change from two-wheel drive to four-wheel
drive, stop the ATV and push the switch in to the
“4WD” position. The four-wheel-drive indicator
light “ ” comes on.
To change from four-wheel drive to two-wheel
drive, stop the ATV and push the switch in to the
“2WD” position.
EBU18283Throttle leverOnce the engine is running, pushing the throttle le-
ver will increase the engine speed.1. On-Command four-wheel-drive switch “2WD”/“4WD”
