EBU34910Parking brake indicator light “(P)”
This indicator light comes on when the park-
ing brake is applied.EBU35850Differential gear lock indicator light “DIFF
LOCK”
This indicator light comes on when the front
differential gear is locked.EBU34921Drivetrain icon “ / ”
The drivetrain icon indicates what type of
drive mode is currently selected. When 2WD
is selected, the icon will turn off. When 4WD
is selected, “ ” is displayed. And when 4WD
with differential lock is selected “ ” is dis-
played.TIP See pages 4-15 and 6-7 for more informa-
tion on selecting the drive mode. 
Due to the synchronizing mechanism in the
differential gear case, the drivetrain icon
may not come on until the vehicle starts
moving.
 When the On-Command drive knob is set
to “DIFF LOCK” or “4WD”, the drivetrain
icon and the differential gear lock indicator
light will flash until the differential gear is
completely locked or unlocked. If the icon
and the indicator light continue to flash, the
differential is not completely locked or un-
locked. In this case, start moving slowly
and/or turn the steering wheel back and
forth to help the differential to lock or un-
lock.
EBU34931Shift timing indicator light
This indicator light can be set to come on and
go off at the desired engine speeds and is
used to inform the driver when it is time to up-
shift.

The electrical circuit of the indicator light can
be checked by turning the key to “ ” (on). If
the indicator light does not come on initially
when the key is turned to “ ” (on), or if the
indicator light remains on, have a Yamaha
dealer check the electrical circuit.TIPSee page 4-12 for a detailed explanation of
this indicator light and how to set it. EBU35282Coolant temperature warning light “ ”
This warning light comes on when the coolant
temperature, and therefore the engine, is out-
side its normal operating temperature range.
The warning light comes on in blue to inform
the driver that the vehicle should be warmed
up. After the engine is started, warm it up until
the warning light goes off.
The vehicle can be operated normally when
the warning light is off.The warning light comes on in red when the
engine 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
8-66.)
TIPThe coolant temperature warning light can be
checked by turning the key to “ ” (on). The
warning light should come on in purple briefly
(which confirms that both the blue and red in-
dicators are okay) and then go off. If the warn-
ing light does not come on at all, comes on in
red or blue, or if the warning light remains on,
have a Yamaha dealer 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 warning light is on may cause
damage to the engine. EBU31340Engine 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,
have a Yamaha dealer check the self-diagno-
sis system. (See page 4-12 for an explanation
of the self-diagnosis device.)
The electrical circuit of the warning light can
be checked by turning the key to “ ” (on). 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.
EBU33041Electric 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 re-
mains on or comes on after the engine is
started, the EPS system may not be working
correctly. When this occurs, 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.TIPIf the steering load is too heavy (e.g., exces-
sive steering use at slow speed or when op-
erating in deep mud, sand, or snow), the
power assist is reduced to protect the EPS
motor from overheating.

EBU31360Helmet indicator light “ ”
The indicator light comes on and stays on
while the key is turned to “ ” (on) to remind
the occupants to always wear a helmet. If the
indicator light does not come on when the key
is turned to “ ” (on), have a Yamaha dealer
check the electrical circuit.EBU31370Seat belt indicator light “ ”
The indicator light comes on when the key is
turned to “ ” (on) to remind the occupants
to fasten their seat belt. The indicator light
stays on until the driver seat belt is properly
latched. If the indicator light does not come
on when the key is turned to “ ” (on), or if
the indicator light remains on after the driver
seat belt is properly latched, have a Yamaha
dealer check the electrical circuit.

crankshaft revolutions per minute (r/min).
When the vehicle is first powered on, the ta-
chometer needle will sweep once across the
r/min range and then return to zero r/min in
order to test the electrical circuit.NOTICEECB02920Do not operate the engine in the tachome-
ter red zone.Red zone: 10500 r/min and above
Odometer and tripmeter modes
The odometer shows the total distance trav-
eled by the vehicle.

ODO → TRIP A → TRIP B → ODO
To reset a tripmeter, select it by pushing the
“SELECT” button, and then push the “RE-
SET” button for three seconds. The tripme-
ters can be used to estimate the distance that
can be traveled with a full tank of fuel. This in-
formation enables you to plan future fuel
stops. Clock, hour meter and voltage display
modes
The clock displays time in 12-hour format.
The hour meter shows the total time the en-
gine has been running.

meter disappear from “F” (full) towards “E”
(empty) as the fuel le vel decreases. When the
last segment on the left disappears and the
fuel level warning indicator flashes, refuel as
soon as possible.
TIPThis fuel meter is equipped with a self-diag-
nosis system. If a problem is detected in an
electrical circuit, all the display segments and
fuel level warning indicator start flashing. If
this occurs, have a Yamaha dealer check the
electrical circuit. Transmission gear display
