EBU31290Neutral indicator light “N”
This indicator light comes on when the drive
select lever is in the “N” position.EBU31300Reverse indicator light “R”
This indicator light comes on when the drive
select lever is in the “R” position.EBU31310Parking brake indicator light “ ”
This indicator light comes on when the park-
ing brake is applied.EBU31320On-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-Com-
mand drive knob “2WD/4WD/DIFF LOCK” is
set to the “4WD” position.The On-Command differential gear lock
indicator “ ” and the On-Command differen-
tial gear lock indicator light “DIFF. LOCK”
come on when the On-Command drive knob
“2WD/4WD/DIFF LOCK” is set to the “DIFF
LOCK” position.
TIP
Due to the synchronizing mechanism in the
differential gear case, the four-wheel-drive
indicator may not come on until the vehicle
starts moving.
When the On-Command drive knob
“2WD/4WD/DIFF LOCK” is set to “DIFF
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 differential is not
completely locked or unlocked. In this
case, start moving to allow time for the dif-
ferential to lock or unlock.

EBU31760CoolantCheck the coolant level in the coolant reser-
voir when the engine is cold (the coolant level
will vary with engine temperature).
The coolant level is satisfactory if it is be-
tween the minimum and maximum level
marks on the coolant reservoir. If the coolant
level is at or below the minimum level mark,
add additional coolant to bring the level up to
maximum level mark. If coolant is not avail-
able, add distilled water. Change the coolant
every two years. (See page 8-24.)NOTICEECB02120Hard water or salt water is harmful to the
engine. You may use soft water if you can-
not get distilled water.
EBU36020Final gearMake sure there is no oil leaking from the final
gear case.EBU36030Differential gearMake sure there is no oil leaking from the dif-
ferential gear case.EBU31790Accelerator pedalCheck to see that the accelerator pedal oper-
ates correctly. It must operate smoothly and
spring back to the idle position fully when re-
leased. Have a Yamaha dealer repair as nec-
essary for proper operation.EBU31800Seat beltsMake sure that the seat belts are not frayed,
torn, stretched, or damaged. The seat belts
must move smoothly when pulled out and re-
tract on its own when released. The seat belts
must also lock up when quickly pulled out.
Coolant reservoir capacity (up to the maxi-
mum level mark): 0.28 L (0.30 US qt, 0.25 Imp.qt)

EBU31922On-Command drive knobThe vehicle handles differently in each of the drive modes (“2WD”, “4WD” and “DIFF LOCK”). For
example, the vehicle requires more effort to turn in “DIFF LOCK” than in “2WD”. Always stop the
vehicle before changing the position of the On-Command drive knob. The meter display changes
according to the selected drive mode. The differen t drive indicators, and the differential gear lock
indicator light “DIFF. LOCK” come on as follows:
Knob position Indication Drive mode
No indicator light.
“2WD” (two-wheel drive): Power is supplied to the rear
wheels.
“4WD” (four-wheel drive): Power is supplied to the rear and
front wheels.
“DIFF 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.

TIPWhen the knob is set to “DIFF LOCK” or “4WD”, the differential gear lock indicator and indica-
tor light will flash until the differential gear is completely locked or unlocked.
When the indicator and indicator light are flashi ng, turning the steering wheel back and forth
will help the differential gear lock to engage or disengage.
Driving with the differential gear not properly engaged 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. U2MB7BE0.book Page 6 Thursday, March 3, 2016 11:46 AM

6. Check the oil filler bolt gasket for dam-age, and replace it if necessary.
7. Install the oil filler bolt and its gasket, and then tighten the bolt to the specified
torque.
8. Check for oil leakage. If oil leakage is found, check for the cause.EBU36060Differential gear oilCheck the oil level and change the differential
gear oil at the intervals specified in the gener-
al maintenance and lubrication chart.
Checking the differential gear oil level
1. Park the vehicle on a level surface. 2. Remove the differential gear oil filler bolt
and its gasket, and then check the oil lev-
el. It should be up to the brim of the filler
hole.
3. If the level is low, add sufficient oil of the recommended type to raise it to the
specified level. NOTICE: Be sure no for-
eign material enters the differential
gear case.

4. Check the gasket for damage, and re-place it if necessary.
5. Install the differential gear oil filler bolt and its gasket, and then tighten the bolt
to the specified torque.
Changing the differential gear oil 1. Park the vehicle on a level surface.
2. Place an oil pan under the differential gear case to collect the used oil.
3. Remove the differential gear oil filler bolt, the differential gear oil drain bolt and their
gasket to drain the oil. 4. Install the differential gear oil drain bolt
and its new gasket, and then tighten the
bolt to the specified torque.
5. Refill the differential gear case with the recommended oil. NOTICE: Be sure no
foreign material enters the differential
gear case.

TIPGL-4 is a quality and additive rating; GL-5
rated hypoid gear oils may also be used.
If desired, an SAE 80W -90 hypoid gear oil
may be used instead. 6. Check the oil filler bolt gasket for dam-
age, and replace it if necessary.
7. Install the differential gear oil filler bolt
and its gasket, and then tighten the bolt
to the specified torque.
8. Check for oil leakage. If oil leakage is found, check for the cause.
EBU33660CoolantThe coolant level should be checked before
each ride. In addition, the coolant must be
changed at the intervals specified in the peri-
odic maintenance and lubrication chart.
Checking the coolant level1. Park the vehicle on a level surface.
2. Check the coolant level in the coolant reservoir when the engine is cold as the
coolant level varies with engine tempera-
ture.TIPThe coolant should be between the minimum
and maximum level marks.
