cording to the coolant temperature. NOTICEECB02401The engine may overheat if the ATV is over-
loaded. Reduce the load to specification.
The engine may overheat if mud or dirt has
accumulated on the radiator. Gently clean
the radiator. (See page 9-1.)
Continuous use while the warning light is on
will damage the engine. EBU29943Engine trouble warning light “ ”

EBU30571Electric Power Steering warning light “EPS”
(for EPS model)
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-

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.
EBU17955Four-wheel drive indicator light “ ”
This indicator light comes on when the drivetrain
is set to “4WD” (four-wheel drive).TIPDue to the synchronizing mechanism in the differ-
ential gear case, the light may not come on until
the ATV starts moving.

turned off for an extended period of time. The
battery may discharge to the point that the
starter will not have enough power to crank the
engine. If this should happen, remove the bat-
tery and recharge it. (See page 8-52.) EBU18171Horn switch “ ”
Press the switch to sound the horn.EBU28434On-Command drive switch “2WD/4WD”
Stop the ATV and push this switch to change from
two-wheel drive to four-wheel drive or vice versa.
Select the appropriate drive according to the ter-
rain and riding conditions.
“2WD” (two-wheel drive): power is supplied to
the rear wheels only, giving a smooth ride and
fuel economy.
“4WD” (four-wheel drive): power is supplied to
the front and rear wheels, giving maximum trac-
tion.
WARNING
EWB00164Always stop the ATV before changing from
two-wheel drive to four-wheel drive and vice
versa. The ATV handles differently in two-
wheel drive than in four-wheel drive in some
circumstances. Changing from two-wheel
drive to four-wheel drive or vice versa while
moving may cause the ATV to unexpectedly
handle differently. This could distract the oper-
ator and increase the risk of losing control and
of causing an accident.
