OPERATION
Failure to operate the vehicle properly can result in a collision, loss of control,
accident or overturn, which may result in serious injury or death. Read and
understand all safety warnings outlined in the safety section of this owner’s
manual.
Break-In Period
The break-in period for your new POLARIS vehicle is the first 20 hours
of operation. No single action on your part is as important as following
the procedures for a proper break-in. Careful treatment of a new engine
and drive components will result in more efficient performance and
longer life for these components.
NOTICE:
Excessive heat build-up during the first three hours of operation will
damage close-fitted engine parts and drive components. Do not
operate at full throttle or high speeds during the first three hours of
use.
