Safety information

2-3

2

Carbon Monoxide is a colorless, odor-
less, tasteless gas which may be pres-
ent even if you do not see or smell any
engine exhaust. Deadly levels of car-
bon monoxide can collect rapidly and
you can quickly be overcome and un-
able to save yourself. Also, deadly lev-
els of carbon monoxide can linger for
hours or days in enclosed or poorly
ventilated areas. If you experience any
symptoms of carbon monoxide poi-
soning, leave the area immediately, get
fresh air, and SEEK MEDICAL TREAT-
MENT.

Do not run engine indoors. Even if
you try to ventilate engine exhaust
with fans or open windows and
doors, carbon monoxide can rap-
idly reach dangerous levels.

Do not run engine in poorly venti-
lated or partially enclosed areas
such as barns, garages, or car-
ports.

Do not run engine outdoors where
engine exhaust can be drawn into
a building through openings such
as windows and doors.

Adding accessories or cargo to your
vehicle can adversely affect stability
and handling if the weight distribution
of the vehicle is changed. To avoid the
possibility of an accident, use extreme
caution when adding cargo or acces-
sories to your vehicle. Use extra care
when riding a vehicle that has added
cargo or accessories. Here, along with
the information about accessories be-
low, are some general guidelines to fol-
low if loading cargo to your vehicle:
The total weight of the operator, pas-
senger, accessories and cargo must
not exceed the maximum load limit.

ent.

When loading within this weight limit,
keep the following in mind:

Cargo and accessory weight
should be kept as low and close to
the vehicle as possible. Securely
pack your heaviest items as close
to the center of the vehicle as pos-

sible and make sure to distribute
the weight as evenly as possible
on both sides of the vehicle to
minimize imbalance or instability.

Shifting weights can create a sud-
den imbalance. Make sure that
accessories and cargo are se-
curely attached to the vehicle be-
fore riding. Check accessory
mounts and cargo restraints fre-
quently.

• Properly adjust the suspension

for your load (suspension-ad-
justable models only), and
check the condition and pres-
sure of your tires.

• Never attach any large or heavy

items to the handlebar, front
fork, or front fender. Such items
can create unstable handling or
a slow steering response.
