KNOW YOUR RIDING AREA/TREAD LIGHTLY
Familiarize yourself with all laws and regulations concerning the operation of this
vehicle in your area. Respect the environment in which you ride your vehicle.
Find out where the designated riding areas are by contacting your POLARIS
dealer, a local riding club, or local officials.
Help keep our trails open for recreational vehicle use. As an off-road enthusiast,
you represent the sport and can set a good example (or a poor example) for
others to follow. Tread lightly. Operate with respect for the terrain, avoid littering,
and always stay on the designated trails.
STARTING THE ENGINE
1. Position the vehicle on a level surface outdoors or in a well- ventilated area.
2. Place the transmission in PARK.
3. Lock the parking brake.
TIP
The starter interlock will prevent the engine from starting if the transmission is
in gear and the brake is not engaged.
4. Sit on the vehicle and move the engine stop switch to RUN.
TIP
Do not press the throttle while starting the engine.
5. Turn the ignition key past the ON position to engage the starter. Activate the
starter for a maximum of five seconds, releasing the key when the engine
starts.
6. If the engine does not start, return the key to the OFF position and wait five
seconds before attempting to start again. Activate the starter for another five
seconds if necessary. Repeat this procedure until the engine starts.
COLD WEATHER OPERATION
If the vehicle is used year-round, check the oil level frequently. A rising oil level
could indicate the accumulation of contaminates such as water or excess fuel in
the bottom of the crankcase. Water in the bottom of the crankcase can lead to
engine damage and must be drained. Water accumulation increases as outside
temperature decreases.
