Operators must be qualified. Make sure the operator is 16 or older.
Your state (or province) may have additional requirements. Laws re-
garding the minimum age and licensing requirements vary from one
jurisdiction to another. Be sure to contact the local authorities for infor-
mation regarding the legal operation of a snowmobile in the intended
jurisdiction of use. BRP highly recommends that you take a safety rid-
ing course. Basic training is required for the safe operation of any
snowmobile.
Operation of this snowmobile with a disability that impairs vision, reac-
tion time, judgment, or operation of the controls is not recommended.
The safe use of your snowmobile depends on many conditions such
as visibility, speed, weather, environment, traffic, vehicle condition
and the condition of the operator. The performance of some snowmo-
biles may significantly exceed that of other snowmobiles you have op-
erated. Therefore, use by novice or inexperienced operators is not
recommended.
Each passenger must be able to simultaneously place both feet firmly
flat against each footboard when properly seated.

Never ride after consuming alcohol or drugs. Riding on a snowmobile
requires the operator and passenger (s) to be sober, attentive and
alert. The use of drugs and alcohol, singly or in combination, de-
creases reaction time, impedes judgment, impairs vision, and inhibits
your ability to safely ride on a snowmobile.
