WARNING
Failure to operate the vehicle properly can result in a collision, loss of control,
accident or rollover, which may result in serious injury or death. Read and
understand all safety warnings outlined in the safety section of this owner's
manual.

VEHICLE BREAK-IN PERIOD

The break-in period for your new POLARIS vehicle is the first 25 hours of
operation, or the time it takes to use the first two tanks full of gasoline. No single
action on your part is as important as a proper break-in period. Careful treatment
of a new engine and drive components will result in more efficient performance
and longer life for these components. Perform the following procedures
carefully.
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.
Use of any improper oils may cause serious engine damage. POLARIS PS-4
Full Synthetic 5W-50 4-Cycle Oil is specifically formulated for your 4-cycle
engine.
