• Do not drive or ride as passenger after using drugs or alcohol.
Prepare your vehicle
Perform the pre-operation checks each time you use the vehicle to make sure it is in safe oper-
ating condition. Failure to inspect or maintain the vehicle properly increases the possibility of an
accident or equipment damage. See page 6-1 for a list of pre-operation checks.
Prepare your load
Carrying heavy or over-sized loads can affect handling, stability, and cause the risk of overturns
or other accidents.
 Read the Loading and Cargo bed sections (page 7-9) before loading the cargo bed.
 Do not overload the vehicle or cargo bed.
 Refer to the labels on the vehicle for specific lo ading limits and recommended tire air pressure.
 Keep heavier objects and the load in general centered side to side, and as low and as far for-
ward in the cargo bed as possible.
 Secure cargo so that it will not shift – a loose load could change handling unexpectedly or be
thrown forward and strike occupants.
 This vehicle is not designed to tow or pull obje cts. Towing a trailer or pulling another vehicle or
other object will affect handling, stability, and increase the risk of overturns and accidents.
Towing or pulling can also cause frame and vehicle damage.

If gasoline spills on your skin, wash with
soap and water. If gasoline spills on your
clothing, change your clothes. If knocking or pinging occurs, try a different
brand or higher octane gasoline. Unleaded
fuel will give you longer spark plug life and re-
duced maintenance cost. Gasoline contain-
ing ethanol can be used if the ethanol content
does not exceed 10% (E10). Gasoline con-
taining methanol is not recommended be-
cause it can cause damage to the fuel system
or vehicle performance problems.
TIPThis mark identifies the recommended fuel
for this vehicle as specified by European
regulation (EN228).
 Check that gasoline nozzle has the same
identifier when fueling. Portable fuel containers
If you carry a portable fuel container in the
bed of your Yamaha YXZ1000E, be sure to
secure it with the cap tightened before driving
the vehicle.
Recommended fuel:
Regular unleaded gasoline (Gasohol [E10]

EBU31791Accelerator pedalBefore starting the engine, confirm that the
accelerator pedal operates correctly. It
should depress smoothly and spring back to
the idle position when released. Also check
the accelerator pedal for excessive free play.
If the accelerator pedal is not in correct work-
ing order, have the vehicle inspected before
starting off.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.
The latch plate should click securely into the
buckle and release when the release button is
pushed firmly. Wash off any dirt or mud that
could affect operation. Have a Yamaha dealer
repair as necessary for proper operation. A crash can damage the restraint systems in
your vehicle. A damaged restraint system
may not properly protect the person using it,
resulting in serious injury or death in a crash.
To help make sure your restraint systems are
working properly after a crash, have them in-
spected and any necessary replacements
made as soon as possible.

EBU35441ParkingWhen parking, shift into first or reverse gear,
stop the engine, and then apply the parking
brake. See page 8-16 for when parking on a
slope.EBU35354LoadingTake extra precautions when driving with a
load. Turn gradually and drive more slowly
than you would without a load. The more
weight you carry, the slower you should go.
Although conditions vary, it is good practice
to keep the vehicle in a low gear when you are
carrying a heavy load. Follow these instruc-
tions and always use common sense and
good judgment when carrying a load.Cargo bed
Use the hooks equipped on the cargo bed
(page 5-27) to tie down loads. Make sure the
load is securely fast
ened down, centered in
the cargo bed, and not top-heavy. Never al-
low anyone to ride in the cargo bed.
WARNING
EWB03923Improper loading or any pulling or towing
will increase the risk of loss of control, an
overturn, or other accident:
 Do not pull objects, other vehicles, or
tow a trailer—this vehicle is not de-
signed for such operation.
 Keep weight in the cargo bed centered
side to side, and as low and as far for-
ward as possible. Top-heavy loads in-
crease the risk of overturn.
 Make sure that cargo is securely fas-
tened down—a loose load could change
handling unexpectedly or strike occu-
pants.

Protective structure
The vehicle cage/frame provides a protective
structure that helps limit intrusions by branch-
es or other objects and may reduce your risk
of injury in accidents. The protective structure
will not protect occupants in all rollovers or
accidents.
Body parts outside of vehicle can be struck
by passing objects or crushed during vehicle
rollover. Do not put your hands or feet outside
of the vehicle for any reason. Do not hold onto
the door, cage/frame or shoulder bolster.
Wear your seat belt and helmet.
If you think or feel that the vehicle may tip or
roll, do not put your hands or feet outside the
vehicle for any reason. You will not be able to
stop the vehicle from tipping over using your
body. Any part of your body (arms, legs, or
head) outside of the vehicle can be crushed
by the vehicle cage/frame. Seat belts
Seat belts should be worn by the driver and
passenger. The driver must be sure that the
passenger is belted before driving.

Be sure the seat belt is not twisted, is close-
fitting across the hips and chest, and is
latched securely.
 Do not wear the seat belt across the abdo-
men or stomach.
 Do not put the seat belt behind the back.
Failure to use seat belts properly may lead to
an increased likelihood and severity of injury.
An unbelted occupant may strike the interior
of the vehicle, the protective structure, or oth-
er objects in an accident or during operation.
You may also fall completely out or be partial-
ly ejected from the vehicle, which may lead to
being crushed between the ground and the
vehicle. Wearing the seat belt helps you re-
main in the vehicle – the doors and passenger
handhold are not a substitute for using a seat
belt.UB5J7CE0.book Page 5 Thursday, November 26, 2020 1:37 PM

A crash can damage the restraint systems in
your vehicle. A damaged restraint system
may not properly protect the person using it,
resulting in serious injury or death in a crash.
To help make sure your restraint systems are
working properly after a crash, have them in-
spected and any necessary replacements
made as soon as possible.
To wear the seat belt properly, do the follow-
ing:1. Hold the latch plate as you pull the belt
across your lap and chest. Make sure the
belt is not twisted and is not caught on
any portion of the vehi cle, your clothing,
or any equipment you are carrying.
2. If the latch plate is not positioned in the correct location along the seat belt, ad-
just its location up or down along the
length of the belt.
3. Push the latch plate into the buckle until it clicks. Pull up on the latch plate to make
sure it is secure.1. Seat belt
