EBU34560Coolant temperature warning light “ ”
This warning light comes on when the engine
overheats. 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). The
warning light should come on for a few seconds,
and then go off.
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.NOTICEECB02400The engine may overheat if the ATV is over-
loaded. In this case, reduce the load to spec-
ification.
The engine may also overheat if mud or dirt
has accumulated on the radiator (i.e., after
riding in wet terrain). In this case, have a
Yamaha dealer clean the radiator.
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.
EBU30483Engine 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, the display will indicate
an error code (see page 4-7). Have a Yamaha
dealer check the self-diagnosis system.
The electrical circuit of the warning light can be
checked by turning the key to “ ” (on). The
warning light should come on for a few seconds,
and then go off.
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
vehicle.EBU30511Electric 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 remains on or
comes on after the engine is started, the EPS sys-

4tem may not be working correctly. When this oc-
curs, 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.
TIP
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
functioning.
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 protect
the EPS motor from overheating. EBU30451On-Command four-wheel-drive indicator “ ”,
On-Command differential gear lock
indicator “ ” and indicator light “DIFF. LOCK”
The On-Command four-wheel-drive indicator “ ”
comes on when the On-Command four-wheel-
drive switch is set to the “4WD” position. The On-Command differential gear lock
indicator “ ” and the On-Command differential
gear lock indicator light “DIFF. LOCK” come on
when the On-Command differential gear lock
switch is set to the “LOCK” position.
TIP
Due to the synchronizing mechanism in the dif-
ferential gear case, the four-wheel-drive indica-
tor may not come on until the ATV starts
moving.
When the On-Command differential gear lock
switch is set to “LOCK” or “4WD”, the
indicator “ ” and the indicator light “DIFF.
LOCK” will flash until the differential gear is
completely locked or unlocked. If the indicator
and the indicator light continue to flash, the dif-
ferential is not completely locked or unlocked.
In this case, start moving to allow time for the
differential to lock or unlock.

Error code display
This model is equipped with a self-diagnosis de-
vice for various electrical circuits.
If a problem is detected in any of those circuits,
the engine trouble warning light will come on or
flash, and the display will indicate an error code.
If the display indicates an error code, note the
code number and have a Yamaha dealer check
the vehicle.

“LOCK” (four-wheel drive with the differential
gear locked): Power is supplied to the rear and
front wheels and the differential gear is locked.
Unlike in four-wheel drive, all wheels turn at the
same speed.
To lock the differential gear in four-wheel drive,
make sure the On-Command four-wheel-drive
switch is pushed in to the “4WD” position. Stop the ATV, move the differential gear lock lever
to position (a), and then push the differential gear
lock switch in to the “LOCK” position. When the
differential gear is locked, the differential gear lock
indicator light “DIFF. LOCK” will come on along
with the indicator “ ” in the multi-function dis-
play.

To unlock the differential gear, stop the ATV and
push the switch to the “4WD” position.
TIP When the switch is set to “LOCK” or “4WD”, the
differential gear lock indicator and indicator light
will flash until the differential gear is completely
locked or unlocked.
When the indicator and indicator light are flash-
ing, turning the handlebar back and forth will
help the differential gear lock to engage or dis-
engage.
Riding before the differential gear is properly en-
gaged or disengaged (e.g., when the indicator
and indicator light are flashing) will cause the
vehicle speed to be limited until the differential
gear is completely engaged or disengaged.
When the ATV is in four-wheel-drive differential
gear lock, the maximum traveling speed is limit-
ed to 35 km/h (22 mi/h). However, if conditions
require full engine power to be available, push
and hold the override switch to disable the dif-
ferential gear lock speed limiter. (See page 4-9
for a detailed explanation of this switch.)
EBU18283Throttle leverOnce the engine is running, pushing the throttle le-
ver will increase the engine speed.
Regulate the speed of the ATV by varying the
throttle position. Because the throttle is spring-
loaded, the ATV will decelerate, and the engine
will return to an idle any time the throttle lever is re-
leased.

2. Do not overfill the fuel tank. When refueling, be sure to insert the pump nozzle into the fuel
tank filler hole. Stop filling when the fuel
reaches the bottom of the filler tube. Because
fuel expands when it heats up, heat from the
engine or the sun can cause fuel to spill out of
the fuel tank. For Europe
