Never maintain an ATV without proper knowl-
edge. Contact an authorized ATV dealer to in-
form you on basic ATV maintenance. Certain
maintenance can only be carried out by certified
staff.
In the event of an accident 1. If serious injuries are incurred, you may be safer staying next to your vehicle; it may
shield you from oncoming riders. Depending
on your injuries and position in the trail; you
must make a judgment call as to whether you
should move to a position off the trail. If you
have sustained head, neck, or back injuries,
or cannot feel your limbs, you should not
move. Keep your helmet on and remain mo-
tionless. Lie down next to your vehicle and
wait for help.
2. If less serious injuries are incurred and you can walk, then move to a position off the trail.
Check yourself for injuries and apply first aid
as needed.
3. If your injuries are light, when safe to do so, move your vehicle off the trail to avoid colli-
sions with oncoming riders. Check for injuries
and apply first aid as necessary. If you can
physically operate your vehicle, inspect your vehicle. If the vehicle is in safe operating con-
dition and you can safely operate it, restart it
and ride gently back to camp or other known
location where you can receive medical at-
tention. If necessary, contact your riding party
or local authorities to let them know where
you are and what has happened.
In the event of a breakdown 1. If your vehicle will not restart or is not in safe operating condition, turn off the main switch
and engine stop switch. If the breakdown oc-
curs at twilight or night, leave the main switch
on so that your lights may warn other riders of
your stopped vehicle.
2. Get out of danger. Check for oncoming vehi- cles and when safe, push your vehicle to the
side of the trail or even off the main trail to
avoid any possible collisions with oncoming
riders. If you cannot move your vehicle by
yourself, when safe, walk to the nearest van-
tage point and signal an oncoming rider to
help you push your vehicle to a safe place off
the trail.
3. Inspect your vehicle for any immediate haz- ardous conditions. The most obvious hazard-
ous conditions are leaking fuel and

EBU38261Battery voltage warning light “ ”
This warning light comes on if the detected battery
voltage is less than 10 volts, or greater than 18
volts.EBU38091Coolant temperature warning light “ ”
This warning light comes on in red when the en-
gine 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 9-65.)TIPThe coolant temperature warning light can be
checked by turning the key to “ ” (on). The
warning light should come on in purple briefly 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 deal-
er 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 warn-
ing light is on may cause damage to the en-
gine. EBU30484Engine 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 5-10). Have a Yamaha
dealer check the self-diagnostic 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

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.

code number and have a Yamaha dealer check
the vehicle.
