To avoid serious injury or death, read and understand all warnings
and the Owner’s Manual before operation. If the manual is missing,
contact a Polaris dealer for a replacement.

This vehicle is capable of high speeds. Buried objects or uneven ter-
rain can cause loss of control. Reduce speed and use extreme cau-
tion when operating in unfamiliar terrain.

Excessive speed, especially at night or with limited visibility, can re-
sult in insufficient time for you to react to terrain changes, to avoid

hicle.

speed and allow extra space for steering and stopping. A passenger

steering and braking ability are greatly reduced. Reduce speed and
allow extra space to turn or stop.

To maintain vehicle control on ice or hard-packed surfaces, you
should have a proper balance of ski carbides to track studs. See
Owner’s Manual for proper use of traction products.

Repeated stops from high speed may cause fading or sudden loss of
braking ability.

Parking brake may relax when used for long periods. Do not leave
brake engaged for more than five minutes.

Before starting engine, check throttle, brake, and steering for proper
operation. Make sure hood is latched. Be seated and in position to
