GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
Avoid Carbon Monoxide
Poisoning
All engine exhaust contains carbon
monoxide, a deadly gas. Breathing car-
bon monoxide can cause headaches,
dizziness, drowsiness, nausea, confu-
sion and eventually death.
Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odor-
less, tasteless gas that may be present
even if you do not see or smell any en-
gine exhaust. Deadly levels of carbon
monoxide can collect rapidly, and you
can quickly be overcome and unable
to save yourself. Also, deadly levels of
carbon monoxide can linger for hours
or days in enclosed or poorly ventilated
areas. If you experience any symp-
toms of carbon monoxide poisoning,
leave the area immediately, get fresh
air and seek medical treatment.
To prevent serious injury or death from
carbon monoxide:
– Never run the vehicle in poorly ven-
tilated or partially enclosed areas
such as garages, carports or barns.
Even if you try to ventilate engine
exhaust with fans or open windows
and doors, carbon monoxide can
rapidly reach dangerous levels.
– Never run the vehicle outdoors
where engine exhaust can be drawn
into a building through openings
such as windows and doors.
Avoid Gasoline Fires and
Other Hazards
Gasoline is extremely flammable and
highly explosive.
Fuel vapors can
spread and be ignited by a spark or
flame many feet away from the en-
gine. To reduce the risk of fire or explo-
sion, follow these instructions:
– Use only an approved gasoline con-
tainer to store fuel.
– Never fill the gasoline container in
the vehicle cargo box or on the ve-
hicle - an electrical static discharge
may ignite the fuel.
– Strictly adhere to instructions in
VE-
HICLE FUELING PROCEDURE
.
– Never start or operate the engine if
the fuel cap is not properly installed.
Gasoline is poisonous and can cause
injury or death.
– Never siphon gasoline by mouth.
– If you swallow gasoline, get any in
your eye(s), or inhale gasoline vapor,
see a doctor immediately.
If gasoline spills on you, wash with
soap and water and change your
clothes.
Avoid Burns from Hot Parts
Certain components like brake rotors
and exhaust components become hot
during operation. Avoid contact with
those parts during and shortly after op-
eration to avoid burn wounds.
Accessories and
Modifications
Any modifications or addition of acces-
sories may affect the handling of your
vehicle. It is important to take the time
to get familiar with the vehicle once
modifications are made to understand
how to adapt your driving behavior ac-
cordingly.
Do not tamper with unauthorized mod-
ifications or install equipment not
specifically certified by BRP for the
vehicle. These modifications have not
been tested by BRP and they may in-
crease the risk of injury or loss of con-
trol, or render the vehicle illegal to ride.
As an example, tampering with tire
specifications may affect the behavior
of the vehicle and increase the risk of a
loss of control.
Ask your authorized BRP dealer for
suitable available accessories for your
vehicle.
