Safety information
6
ESU10204
As the vehicle’s owner, you are responsible
for the safe and proper operation of your
snowmobile. When you ride your snowmo-
bile, you must know and use the following for
your safety. Severe injury or death may result
if you ignore any of the following.
Before you operate your snowmobile
Read the Owner’s Manual and all labels.
Become familiar with all of the operating
controls and their function. Consult a
Yamaha dealer about any control or func-
tion you do not understand.
Wear protective clothing. Wear an ap-
proved helmet, and a face shield or gog-
gles. Also, wear a good quality snowmobile
suit, boots, and a pair of gloves or mittens
that will permit use of your thumbs and fin-
gers for operation of the controls.
Do not operate the snowmobile after or
while drinking alcohol or taking drugs. Your
ability to operate the snowmobile is re-
duced by the influence of alcohol or drugs.
Prepare your snowmobile
Perform the pre-operation checks each
time you use the vehicle to make sure it is
in safe operating condition. Failure to in-
spect or maintain the vehicle properly in-
creases the possibility of an accident or
equipment damage. See page 43 for a list
of pre-operation checks.
Apply the parking brake before starting the
engine. Never drive the snowmobile with
the parking brake applied. This may over-
heat the brake disc and reduce braking
ability.
While using your snowmobile
This snowmobile was not manufactured for
use on public streets, roads, or highways.
Such use is prohibited by law, and you
could collide with another vehicle.
Be careful where you ride. There may be
obstacles hidden beneath the snow. Stay
on established trails to minimize your expo-
sure to hazards. Ride slowly and cautiously
when you ride off of established trails. Hit-
ting a rock or stump, or running into wires
could cause an accident and injury.
This snowmobile is not designed for use on
surfaces other than snow or ice. Use on
dirt, sand, grass, rocks, or bare pavement
may cause loss of control and may dam-
age the snowmobile.
Always ride with other snowmobilers when
going on a ride. You may need help if you
run out of fuel, have an accident, or dam-
age your snowmobile.
Many surfaces such as ice and hard-
packed snow require much longer stop-
ping distances. Be alert, plan ahead and
begin decelerating early. The best braking
method on most surfaces is to release the
throttle and apply the brake gently—not
suddenly.
Avoid carbon monoxide poisoning
All engine exhaust contains carbon monox-
ide, a deadly gas. Breathing carbon monox-
ide can cause headaches, dizziness,
drowsiness, nausea, confusion, and eventu-
U8JV70E0.book Page 6 Monday, April 6, 2015 11:49 AM

Safety information
7
ally death. Carbon monoxide is a colorless,
odorless, tasteless gas which may be present
even if you do not see or smell any engine ex-
haust. Deadly levels of carbon monoxide can
collect rapidly and you can quickly be over-
come and be unable to save yourself. Also,
deadly levels of carbon monoxide can linger
for hours or days in enclosed or poorly-venti-
lated areas. If you experience any symptoms
of carbon monoxide poisoning, leave the
area immediately, get fresh air, and SEEK
MEDICAL TREATMENT.
Do not run the engine indoors. Even if you
try to ventilate engine exhaust with fans or
open windows and doors, carbon monox-
ide can rapidly reach dangerous levels.
Do not run the engine in poorly ventilated
or partially enclosed areas such as barns,
garages, or carports.
Do not run the engine outdoors where en-
gine exhaust can be drawn into a building
through openings such as windows and
doors.
Genuine Yamaha Accessories
Choosing accessories for your snowmobile is
an important decision. Genuine Yamaha Ac-
cessories, which are available only from a
Yamaha dealer, have been designed, tested,
and approved by Yamaha for use on your
snowmobile. Many companies with no con-
nection to Yamaha manufacture parts and
accessories or offer other modifications for
Yamaha vehicles. Yamaha is not in a position
to test the products that these aftermarket
companies produce. Therefore, Yamaha can
neither endorse nor recommend the use of
accessories not sold by Yamaha or modifica-
tions not specifically recommended by
Yamaha, even if sold and installed by a
Yamaha dealer.
Maintenance and storage
When laying the snowmobile on its side for
maintenance, use a suitable stand to keep
it in a stable and level position.
Do not leave the snowmobile on its left side
for an extended period of time. Fuel may
leak out from the fuel breather hose.
Do not allow anyone to stand behind the
snowmobile when starting, inspecting, or
adjusting the snowmobile. A broken track,
track fittings, or debris thrown by the track
could be dangerous to the operator or by-
standers.
Modifications made to the snowmobile not
approved by Yamaha, or the removal of
original equipment may render your snow-
mobile unsafe for use, which may cause
severe personal injury. Modifications may
also make the snowmobile illegal to use.
Never store the snowmobile with fuel in the
fuel tank inside a building where ignition
sources are present such as hot water and
space heaters, an open flame, sparks,
clothes dryers, and the like. Allow the en-
gine to cool off before storing the snowmo-
bile in an enclosed space.

Throttle lever
Once the engine is running cleanly, squeez-
ing the throttle lever will increase the engine
speed and cause engagement of the drive
train. Regulate the speed of the snowmobile
by varying the throttle position. Because the
throttle is spring-loaded, the snowmobile will
decelerate, and the engine will return to idle
when it is released.

Throttle override system
(T.O.R.S.)
WARNING
EWS00042
If the T.O.R.S. is activated, make sure that
the cause of the malfunction has been
corrected and that the engine can be op-
erated without a problem before restarting
the engine. Continuing to operate with a
malfunction could cause loss of control or
damage.
If the throttle valves or throttle cable malfunc-
tions during operation, the T.O.R.S. will be
activated when the throttle lever is released.
The T.O.R.S. is designed to override the fuel
injection (RST90TF / RST90TFL / RST90TFY)
or ignition (RST90) and limit the engine speed
to less than the clutch engagement speed if
the throttle valves fail to return to the idle po-
sition when the throttle lever is released. (See
page 110 for the clutch engagement speed.)
TIP
If the T.O.R.S. is activated, the warning light
and engine trouble warning indicator flash,
and the two-digit code “84” displays
(RST90TF / RST90TFL / RST90TFY) or flash-

When the key is turned to the on position, the
tachometer needle makes one sweep, and
the low coolant temperature indicator light,
the warning light, and all segments of the me-
ter unit display come on and go off.
The grip warmer level is initially displayed for
5 seconds, then the display switches to the
fuel meter.
TIP
To switch the speedometer, odometer, and
tripmeter displays between kilometers and
miles, select the odometer mode “ODO”, and
then push the “SELECT” button for at least
10 seconds while the snowmobile is stopped.
Odometer and tripmeter modes
Odometer shows the total distance that the
vehicle has run.
Tripmeter A and tripmeter B show the dis-
tance traveled since they last reset.
Fuel reserve tripmeter shows the distance
traveled since the fuel level warning indicator
and warning light came on.
Pushing the “SELECT” button switches the
display between the odometer mode “ODO”
and the tripmeter modes “TRIP A” and “TRIP
B” in the following order:
ODO →TRIP A →TRIP B →ODO
If the fuel level warning indicator and warning
light come on (see page 17), the odometer
display will automatically change to the fuel
reserve tripmeter mode “TRIP F” and start
counting the distance traveled from that
point. In that case, push the “SELECT” but-

ton to switch the display between the various
tripmeter and odometer modes in the follow-
ing order:
TRIP F →ODO →TRIP A →TRIP B →TRIP F
To reset a tripmeter, select it by pushing the
“SELECT” button, and then push the “RE-
SET” button for at least 1 second. If you do
not reset the fuel reserve tripmeter manually,
it will reset itself automatically, and the dis-
play will return to the prior mode after the
snowmobile has been refueled and traveled 5
km (3 mi).
TIP
Odometer resets and continues counting
when it reaches 99999 while riding. How-
ever on the 10th time, the odometer will
lock at 99999.
Tripmeter A and tripmeter B reset and con-
tinue counting when they reach 999.9 while
riding.
Oil change tripmeter
Oil change tripmeter shows the distance trav-
eled since the periodic oil change interval
was reached.
When the periodic oil change interval is
reached at the initial 800 km (500 mi), then at
every 4000 km (2500 mi) thereafter, the oil
change tripmeter and “OIL” flash alternately
in the odometer display, and the tripmeter
starts counting the distance traveled from
that point. When this occurs, change the en-
gine oil as soon as possible. (See page 71 for
the oil change procedure.)
TIP
The oil change tripmeter will flash only
when the snowmobile is stopped.
To return to the previous display mode,
push the “SELECT” button. To display the
oil change tripmeter again, turn the key to
the off position, then back to the on posi-
tion.
After changing the engine oil, reset the oil
change tripmeter as follows.
To reset the oil change tripmeter (when the
engine oil was changed after the oil change
tripmeter appeared)
1. To display the oil change tripmeter, turn
the key to the on position.
2. Push the “RESET” button for at least 1
second while the oil change tripmeter
and “OIL” are flashing alternately in the
odometer display. The distance traveled
since the last oil change and “OIL” will
flash alternately in the odometer display.
3. Push the “RESET” button for approxi-
mately 3 seconds. “00000” and “OIL” will
flash alternately in the odometer display
3 times, and then the display will return
to the previous display mode.
If the engine oil is changed before the oil
change tripmeter appears in the display (i.e.,
before the periodic oil change interval has

been reached), the tripmeter must be reset
after the oil change for the next periodic oil
change to be indicated at the correct time.
In that case, reset the oil change tripmeter as
follows.
To reset the oil change tripmeter (when the
engine oil was changed before the oil change
tripmeter appeared)
1. Push the “SELECT” button until “ODO”
is displayed, and then push the “RESET”
button for at least 1 second. The dis-
tance traveled since the last oil change
and “OIL” will flash alternately in the
odometer display.
2. Push the “RESET” button for approxi-
mately 3 seconds. “00000” and “OIL” will
flash alternately in the odometer display
3 times, and then the display will return
to the previous display mode.
