EBU34910Parking brake indicator light “(P)”
This indicator light comes on when the park-
ing brake is applied.EBU36450High beam indicator light “ ”
This indicator light comes on when the high
beam of the headlight is switched on.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 4-17 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.

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.
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.
EBU31810Passenger handholdCheck that the handhold bar and its supports
are in good condition. Confirm that the lock-
ing pins are securely fastened, and then push
and pull on the handhold to make sure that it
is not loose.EBU31820SteeringPark on level ground. Turn the steering wheel
right and left. Check for excessive free play,
abnormal noises, or a rough feeling. Have a
Yamaha dealer repair as necessary for proper operation.

EBU35061Selecting the drive modeThe 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 th e On-Command drive knob. The drive mode icon
changes according to the selected drive mode. The drive mode icon and the “DIFF LOCK” indi-
cator light come on as follows:
Knob position Indication Drive mode
(none)
“2WD” (two-wheel drive): Drive power is supplied to the rear
wheels only.
“4WD” (four-wheel drive): Drive power is supplied to the
front and rear wheels.
“DIFF LOCK” (four-wheel drive with the differential gear
locked): Drive power is supplied to the front and rear 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 drive mode icon and the indicator light
will flash until the differential gear is completely locked or unlocked.
Turning the steering wheel back and forth will help the differential gear lock to engage or dis-
engage.
To protect the drivetrain from damage, vehicle speed is limited until the differential gear lock
has properly transitioned. U2HC7ME0.book Page 8 Tuesday, April 19, 2016 10:33 AM

Become familiar with the way the vehicle han-
dles in the various drive modes. Start off with
two-wheel drive “2WD”, then four-wheel drive
“4WD”, and finally four-wheel drive with the
differential locked “DIFF LOCK”. Steering
may take more effort in four-wheel drive with
the differential locked “DIFF LOCK”. Also
practice driving in reverse.TIPTake the time to learn basic operation of the
vehicle before driving at higher speeds or at-
tempting more difficult maneuvers.
Getting ready to ride
Perform the pre-operation checks on page
5-1. Follow the instructions on page 6-2 when
starting the engine.
Turning
Use care in turns — turning the steering wheel
too far or too fast can result in loss of control
or a rollover. Slow down before entering
turns. When making tight turns from a stand-
still or at slow speeds, avoid sudden or hard
acceleration. Driving aggressively or making
abrupt maneuvers even on flat, open areas
can cause side rollovers. Avoid sideways slid-
ing, skidding, or back-wheel sliding, and nev-
er do donuts. If you feel the vehicle begin to
slide sideways or the back wheels slide dur-
ing a turn, steer into the direction of the slide,
if possible, and gradually let off the accelera-
tor pedal to regain directional control and
avoid rollover. For example, if you feel the
back of the vehicle start to slide to your right,
steer to the right.

TIPYou may need to turn the steering wheel left
and right or release the clutch slightly to help
the differential lock into place. 3. Stop the engine (turn the key to “ ”[off]).
4. With the brake pedal still being applied, set the parking brake.
5. Finally, get out of the vehicle and block
the front and rear wheels with rocks or
other objects.
Loading
Be aware that vehicle load includes the total
combined weight of the operator, passenger,
any installed accessories, and any luggage or
cargo brought on board or stored in the cargo
bed. Make sure that the gross vehicle weight
(vehicle load plus weight of the vehicle itself)
never exceeds 1025 kg (2260 lb). Vehicle loading can affect handling as well as
the recommended tire pressure. See “Load-
ing” on page 6-9 and “Tire pressure” on page
5-8.
EBU35572Operation on different surfaces and
terrainsGo slowly and proceed with caution when op-
erating on an unfamiliar surface or terrain.
This vehicle may handle differently in certain
types of terrains or on certain surfaces. You
may come upon hidden rocks, bumps, or
holes without enough time to react. To avoid
loss of control or rollover, always be alert to
changing surfaces or terrain when operating
the vehicle.
Your Yamaha YXZ1000R has higher ground
clearance and other features to handle rug-
ged terrain, and as a result, can overturn in
situations where some vehicles may not.
Abrupt maneuvers or aggressive driving can
cause loss of control, including rollovers –
