IMPORTANT INFORMATION
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 vehicle is the first 20 hours of operation, or the
time it takes to use the first 2 full tanks of gasoline. No single action on your part
is as important as a proper break-in period. Careful treatment of a new engine
will result in more efficient performance and longer life for the engine. Perform
the following procedures carefully.
NOTICE
Excessive heat build-up during the first 3 hours of operation will damage close-
fitted engine parts and drive components. Do not operate at full throttle or high
speeds during the first 3 hours of use.
BRAKE SYSTEM BREAK-IN
Apply only moderate braking force for the first 50 stops. Aggressive or overly
forceful braking when the brake system is new could damage brake pads and
rotors.
PVT BREAK-IN (CLUTCHES/BELT)
A proper break-in of the clutches and drive belt will ensure a longer life and
better performance. Break in the clutches and belt by operating at slower
speeds during the break-in period as recommended. Pull only light loads. Avoid
aggressive acceleration and high speed operation during the break-in period.
If a belt fails, always clean any debris from the PVT intake and outlet duct and
from the clutch and engine compartments when replacing the belt.
KNOW YOUR RIDING AREA/TREAD LIGHTLY
Familiarize yourself with all laws and regulations concerning the operation of this
vehicle in your area. Respect the environment in which you ride your vehicle.
Find out where the designated riding areas are by contacting your POLARIS
dealer, a local riding club, or local officials.
