The electrical circuit of the indicator light can
be checked by turning the key to “ ” (on). If
the indicator light does not come on initially
when the key is turned to “ ” (on), or if the
indicator light remains on, have a Yamaha
dealer check the electrical circuit.TIPSee page 4-12 for a detailed explanation of
this indicator light and how to set it. EBU35282Coolant temperature warning light “ ”
This warning light comes on when the coolant
temperature, and therefore the engine, is out-
side its normal operating temperature range.
The warning light comes on in blue to inform
the driver that the vehicle should be warmed
up. After the engine is started, warm it up until
the warning light goes off.
The vehicle can be operated normally when
the warning light is off.The warning light comes on in red when the
engine is overheating. If the red light comes
on, stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do
so and allow the engine to idle for about 10
minutes. If the warning light does not go off,
stop the engine and allow it to cool. (See page
8-66.)
TIPThe coolant temperature warning light can be
checked by turning the key to “ ” (on). The
warning light should come on in purple briefly
(which confirms that both the blue and red in-
dicators are okay) and then go off. If the warn-
ing light does not come on at all, comes on in
red or blue, or if the warning light remains on,
have a Yamaha dealer check the vehicle. NOTICEECB02040
The engine may overheat if the vehicle is
overloaded. If this happens, reduce the
load to specification.

After restarting, make sure that the
warning light is out. Continuous use
while this warning light is on may cause
damage to the engine. EBU31340Engine trouble warning light “ ”
This warning light comes on or flashes if a
problem is detected in the electrical circuit
monitoring the engine. When this occurs,
have a Yamaha dealer check the self-diagno-
sis system. (See page 4-12 for an explanation
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 initially
when the key is turned to “ ” (on), or if the
warning light remains on, have a Yamaha
dealer check the electrical circuit.
EBU33041Electric 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 started. If the warning light re-
mains on or comes on after the engine is
started, the EPS system may not be working
correctly. When this occurs, have a Yamaha
dealer 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.TIPIf the steering load is too heavy (e.g., exces-
sive steering use at slow speed or when op-
erating in deep mud, sand, or snow), the
power assist is reduced to protect the EPS
motor from overheating.

This display shows the selected gear. The
neutral position is indicated by “N” and by the
neutral indicator light “N”.
Self-diagnosis device
This model is equipped with a self-diagnosis
device for various electrical circuits.
If a problem is detected in any of those cir-
cuits, the engine trouble warning light comes
on or flashes, and the multi-function display
indicates an error code.If the multi-function display indicates an error
code, note the code number, and then have a
Yamaha dealer check the vehicle.
NOTICEECB00812If the multi-function display indicates an
error code, the vehicle should be checked
as soon as possible in order to avoid en-
gine damage. Shift timing indicator light

Clutch fluid
Depress and release the clutch pedal five
times. Check to see if any fluid is leaking out
of the hoses, reservoir, or master cylinder.
Check the clutch fluid level and correct if nec-
essary. (See page 8-45.)TIPIf any leakage is found, or if the clutch pedal
offers little resistance, have a Yamaha dealer
service the vehicle. EBU33200FuelMake sure there is sufficient fuel in the tank.
WARNING
EWB02522Gasoline and gasoline vapors are ex-
tremely flammable. To avoid fires and ex-
plosions and to reduce the risk of injury
when refueling, follow these instructions.
1. Before refueling, turn off the engine and
be sure that no one is sitting in the vehi-
cle.
Never refuel while smoking, or while in
the vicinity of sparks, open flames, or
other sources of ignition such as the pilot
lights of water heaters and clothes dry-
ers.
2. Do not overfill the fuel tank. Because fuel expands 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 se- curely.
WARNING
EWB02532Gasoline is poisonous and can cause inju-
ry or death. Handle gasoline with care.
Never siphon gasoline by mouth. If you
should swallow some gasoline or inhale a
lot of gasoline vapor, or get some gasoline
in your eyes, see your doctor immediately.

EBU35690Shift leverThe shift lever should move smoothly both
forward and backwards and return to its orig-
inal position after a gear change is made.
Check the shift lever and transmission for
roughness before starting off.TIPThe engine may need to be started for the
transmission to engage gears. EBU35700Fittings and fastenersAlways check the tightness of chassis and
wheel fittings and fasteners before starting
off. Take the vehicle to a Yamaha dealer or re-
fer to the Service Manual for correct tighten-
ing torque.EBU31840Instruments, lights and switchesCheck that all instruments, lights and switch-
es are working properly. Correct if necessary.
EBU31851Control cablesWhen driving in cold weather, always make
sure all control cables work smoothly before
starting off. WARNING! Control cables can
freeze in cold weather and you could be
unable to control the vehicle.

EBU35331
TiresCheck tire pressure regularly to make sure it
is at the recommended specifications. Also
check for wear and damage.
Tire pressure
Use the tire pressure gauge to check and ad-
just tire pressures when the tires are cold. Tire
pressures must be equal on both sides.
WARNING! Operation of this vehicle with improper tire pressure may cause severe
injury or death from loss of control or roll-
over. Tire pressure below the minimum

10–20 hours:
Avoid prolonged operation above 6300 r/min.
After break-in:
The vehicle may now be operated normally.EBU35341Starting the engine1. Turn the key to “ ” (on).NOTICEECB02290The coolant temperature warning light and
engine trouble warning light should come
on, then go off.
The EPS warning light should come on,
then go off when the engine is started.
If a warning light does not go off, see page
4-2 for the corresponding warning light
circuit check. 2. Press the brake pedal.
3. Shift the transmission into neutral.
When the transmission is in the neutral
position, the transmission gear display
shows “N” and the neutral indicator
light should come on.
The engine can be started in any gear if
the clutch pedal is applied. However, it
is recommended to shift into neutral
before starting the engine.
4. With your foot off the accelerator pedal, start the engine by turning the key to “ ”
(start).
If the engine fails to start, release the key, and
then try starting it again. Wait a few seconds
before the next attempt. Each attempt should
be as short as possible, to preserve battery
energy. NOTICE: Do not crank the engine
more than 5 seconds on each attempt, or
starter damage could occur. Wait at least
5 seconds between each operation of the
electric starter to let it cool.
[ECB02140]
Do not turn the key to the “ ” (start) position
with the engine running; otherwise, damage
to the electric starter may result.
