Low-range indicator light “SBL00776.png”

This indicator light comes on when the drive select lever is in the “L” position.

High-range indicator light “SBL00777.png”

This indicator light comes on when the drive select lever is in the “H” position.

Neutral indicator light “SBL00778.png”

This indicator light comes on when the drive select lever is in the “N” position.

Reverse indicator light “SBL00779.png”

This indicator light comes on when the drive select lever is in the “R” position.

Parking brake indicator light “SBL00780.png”

This indicator light comes on when the parking brake is applied.

High beam indicator light “SBL00781.png”

This indicator light comes on when the high beam of the headlight is switched on.

Differential gear lock indicator light “SBL00775.png”

This indicator light comes on when the front differential gear is locked.

When the On–Command drive knob is set to “DIFF. LOCK”, the indicator light will flash until the differential is locked. Turn the steering wheel back and forth or drive slowly to help the differential gear lock to engage.

Drivetrain icon “SBL00151.png/SBL00580.png”

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, “SBL00151.png” is displayed. And when 4WD with differential lock is selected “SBL00580.png” is displayed.

  • See pages and for more information 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 using the On-Command drive knob to change to/from “DIFF. LOCK”, 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 unlocked. In this case, start moving slowly and/or turn the steering wheel back and forth to help the differential to lock or unlock.

Coolant temperature warning light “SBL00785.png”

This warning light comes on when the coolant temperature, and therefore the engine, is outside 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 .)

  • When the coolant temperature is too cold, engine power is restricted. After the coolant temperature warning light goes off, release the accelerator pedal, and then the vehicle will switch to normal operating mode.
  • If you continue to drive the vehicle while the engine is overheating, a buzzer will sound.
  • The coolant temperature warning light can be checked by turning the key to “SBL00258.png” (on). The warning light should come on in purple briefly (which confirms that both the blue and red indicators are okay) and then go off. If the warning 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.
  • 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.

Engine trouble warning light “SBL00787.png”

This warning light comes on or flashes if a problem is detected in the electrical circuit monitoring the engine. When this occurs, the display will indicate an error code (see page ). Have a Yamaha dealer check the self-diagnosis system.

The electrical circuit of the warning light can be checked by turning the key to “SBL00258.png” (on). If the warning light does not come on initially when the key is turned to “SBL00258.png” (on), or if the warning light remains on, have a Yamaha dealer check the vehicle.

Electric Power Steering warning light “SBL00786.png”

This warning light comes on when the key is turned to “SBL00258.png” (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 system may not be working correctly. When this occurs, the display will indicate an error code (see page ). Have a Yamaha dealer check the EPS system.

The electrical circuit of the warning light can be checked by turning the key to “SBL00258.png” (on). If the warning light does not come on, have a Yamaha dealer check the electrical circuit.

If the steering load is too heavy (e.g., excessive steering use at slow speed or when operating in deep mud, sand, or snow), the power assist is reduced to protect the EPS motor from overheating.

Battery voltage warning light “SBL00784.png”

This warning light comes on if the detected battery voltage is less than 10 volts, or greater than 18 volts.

Suspension system warning light “SBL00824.png” (if equipped)

This warning light comes on if a problem is detected in the electronically adjustable suspension system. When this occurs, the display will indicate an error code (see page ). Have a Yamaha dealer check the suspension system.

The electrical circuit of the warning light can be checked by turning the key to “SBL00258.png” (on). If the warning light does not come on initially when the key is turned to “SBL00258.png” (on), or if the warning light remains on, have a Yamaha dealer check the vehicle.

Helmet reminder light “SBL00782.png”

The reminder light comes on and stays on while the key is turned to “SBL00258.png” (on) to remind the occupants to always wear a helmet. If the reminder light does not come on when the key is turned to “SBL00258.png” (on), have a Yamaha dealer check the electrical circuit.

Seat belt reminder light “SBL00783.png”

The reminder light comes on when the key is turned to “SBL00258.png” (on) to remind the occupants to fasten their seat belt. The reminder light stays on until the driver seat belt is properly latched. If the reminder light does not come on when the key is turned to “SBL00258.png” (on), or if the reminder light remains on after the driver seat belt is properly latched, have a Yamaha dealer check the electrical circuit.
