PRE-RIDE CHECKLIST
We encourage you to have an An-
nual Safety Inspection of your ve-
hicle. Please contact an authorized
BRP On-Road dealer for further de-
tails. Though not required, it is rec-
ommended that an authorized BRP
On-Road dealer performs the presea-
son preparation of your vehicle. Each
visit is a great opportunity for your
dealer to verify if your vehicle is in-
cluded in any warranty campaign. We
also urge you to visit your authorized
BRP On-Road dealer in a timely man-
ner if you become aware of any safety
related campaigns.
WARNING
Perform a pre-ride inspection be-
fore 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 dis-
cover to reduce the risk of a break-
down or crash. See an authorized
Can-Am On-Road dealer as neces-
sary.
