General Information

Vehicle Identification
Numbers
This vehicle has two identification num-
bers: Vehicle Identification Number
(VIN) and Engine Serial Number (ESN).
The VIN is located on the frame support
tube under the cargo box facing the rear
of the vehicle.
The ESN is located on the left-side of the
engine crankcase near the bottom of the
crankcase.
These numbers are required by the dealer
to complete warranty claims properly. No
warranty will be allowed by Arctic Cat if
the VIN or ESN is removed or mutilated
in any way.
Always provide the name, VIN, and ESN
when contacting an authorized Arctic Cat
dealer for parts, service, accessories, or
warranty. If a complete engine must be
replaced, ask the dealer to notify Arctic
Cat for correct registration information.
