Crossover setting (YXZ10YESK)
The crossover setting adjusts the timing when
the shock absorber transitions from the soft
spring to the hard spring.TIP It is recommended to adjust the crossover
setting a similar distance whenever the
spring preload is adjusted.
 The crossover setting is measured from the
bottom of the spring retainer to the top of
the crossover locknut.

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.

system enters standby mode. 4. While checking in front of you for obsta-
cles or anything that may cross your
path, release the brake pedal, and then
press the accelerator pedal to rev the en-
gine to the desired launch engine speed.
TIPThe engine speed at launch must be be-
tween 5000–10000 r/min.
 If you release one shift paddle, or if a sys-
tem restriction is detected during standby
mode, the launch system indicator light will
begin to flash and the launch will be can-

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.

TIPWhen 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. UB5H7AE0.book Page 11 Wednesday, July 4, 2018 1:37 PM
