SAFETY TRAINING
Safety training is a top priority for POLARIS. POLARIS strongly encourages you
and any family members who will be riding this vehicle to take a training course.
For more information about safety, contact an authorized POLARIS dealer or
visit the POLARIS web site at www.polaris.com.
Your POLARIS vehicle is designed for off-road operation. Familiarize yourself
with all laws and regulations concerning the operation of this vehicle in your
area.
We strongly advise you to strictly follow the recommended maintenance
program outlined in your owner's manual. This preventive maintenance program
is designed to ensure that all critical components on your vehicle are thoroughly
inspected at specific intervals.
SAFE RIDING GEAR
Always wear helmet, eye protection, gloves, long-sleeve shirt, long pants, over-
the-ankle boots and seat belt (if equipped) at all times. Protective gear reduces
the chance of injury.
RIDER COMFORT
Under certain operating conditions, heat generated by the engine and exhaust
system can elevate temperatures in the rider cab area.
The condition occurs most frequently
when a vehicle is being operated in high
ambient temperatures at low speeds
and/or high load conditions for an
extended period of time. The use of
certain windshield, roof and/or cab
systems may contribute to this condition
by restricting airflow. Any discomfort
due to heat buildup in this area can be
minimized by wearing proper riding
apparel and by varying speeds to
increase airflow.
