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-
tem 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.
EBU38100Four-wheel drive icon “ ”, differential gear
lock icon “ ” and indicator light “ ”
The four-wheel drive icon “ ” comes on when the
drivetrain is set to “4WD” (four-wheel drive).
The differential gear lock icon “ ” and the differ-
ential gear lock indicator light “ ” come on
when the drivetrain is set to “4WD” with the differ-
ential gear locked.TIPDue to the synchronizing mechanism in the dif-
ferential gear case, the four-wheel drive icon
may not come on until the ATV starts moving.
 When the On-Command differential gear lock
switch is set to “LOCK” or “4WD”, the “ ” icon
and the “ ” indicator light will flash until the
differential gear is completely locked or un-
locked. Turn the handlebar or start moving to
help the differential lock to engage or disen-
gage.
