General Information
Snowmobile
Identification
The Arctic Cat Snowmobile has two
important identification numbers. The
Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is
stamped into the tunnel near the right-
side footrest and on a decal beneath the
seat. The decal (on top of the tunnel) also
displays pertinent production informa-
tion. The Engine Serial Number (ESN) is
stamped into the crankcase of the engine.
0726-383
These numbers are required by the dealer
to complete warranty claims properly. No
warranty will be allowed by Arctic Cat
Inc. if the engine serial number or VIN is
removed or mutilated in any way.
Always provide the snowmobile name,
VIN, and ESN when contacting an autho-
rized Arctic Cat Snowmobile dealer for
parts, service, accessories, or warranty. If
the complete engine must be replaced,
ask the dealer to notify Arctic Cat for
correct registration information.

Gasoline — Oil
Recommended Gasoline
The recommended gasoline to use in this
snowmobile is minimum 91 octane gaso-
line with a maximum 10% ethanol content.
NOTE: For optimum performance,
use only 91 octane (minimum) gasoline.
Gasolines containing more than 10% eth-
anol are not acceptable gasoline for use
in this snowmobile. Do not use gasolines
containing methanol.
CAUTION
Do not use white gas or gasoline con-
taining methanol. Only Arctic Cat-
approved gasoline additives should
be used.
CAUTION
If a situation arises wherein 91 octane
non-ethanol or 91 octane with maximum
10% ethanol gasoline is not available,
87 octane gasoline can be substituted in
an emergency; however, the prolonged
usage of 87 octane gasoline can cause
severe engine damage.
