PRE-RIDE CHECKLIST
We encourage you to have an Annual Safety Inspection of your vehicle. Please
contact an authorized Can-Am On-Road dealer for further details. Though not
required, it is recommended that an authorized Can-Am On-Road dealer performs
the preseason preparation of your vehicle. Each visit is a great opportunity for
your dealer to verify if your vehicle is included in any warranty campaign. We also
urge you to visit your authorized Can-Am On-Road dealer in a timely manner if you
become aware of any safety related campaigns.
WARNING
Perform a pre-ride inspection before each ride to detect potential problems
during operation. The pre-ride inspection can help you monitor wear and
deterioration before they become a problem. Correct any problems that
you discover to reduce the risk of a breakdown or crash. See an authorized
Can-Am On-Road dealer as necessary.
