KYMCO UXV450i 2023 Manual page 5

YOUR UTV IS NOT A TOY AND CAN BE HAZARDOUS TO OPERATE.
This Side-by-Side vehicle (UTV) handles differently from

other vehicles, including motorcycles, ATVs and
automobiles. A collision or rollover can occur quickly,
even during routine maneuvers such as turning and
driving on hills and over obstacles if you fail to take proper
precautions.
 Read this Owner's Manual carefully and follow the opera-
tional procedures within. Pay special attention to the warn-
ings in this manual and applied to your vehicle.
 Always ride slowly and be extra careful when operating
your UXV450i on unfamiliar terrain. Be alert for changing
con- ditions and terrain when operating your vehicle.
 Never operate your UXV450i on excessively rough, slip-
pery, or loose terrain.
 Always follow proper procedures for turning as described
in this manual. Practice turning at slow speeds before
attempt- ing to turn at faster speeds. Do not turn at an
excessive speed.
 Always have your UXV450i inspected by an authorized
KYMCO ATV dealer if it has been involved in an accident.
 Never operate your UXV450i on hills that are too steep for
the vehicle or for your abilities. Practice on smaller hills
before attempting larger hills.
 Never operate this vehicle on a public road, even a dirt or
gravel road, as you may not be able to avoid a collision
with another vehicle.
 Avoid paved surfaces with your UXV450i This vehicle is not
designed to be driven on paved surfaces as its handling
and control will be seriously affected.
 Always follow proper procedures for climbing hills as de-
scribed in this manual. Check the terrain carefully before
you start up any hill. Never climb hills that have slippery or
loose surfaces. Shift your weight forward when climbing
hills. Never open the throttle suddenly or make sudden
gear changes. Never go over the top of any hill at high
speed.
 Always follow proper procedures for going down hills and
for braking on hills as described in this manual. Check the
ter- rain carefully before you start down any hill. Never go
down a hill at high speed. Avoid going down a hill at an
angle that would cause your UXV450i to lean sharply to
one side. Go straight down the hill where possible.
 Always follow proper procedures for crossing the side of a
hill as described in this manual. Avoid hills with slippery or
loose surfaces. If possible, shift your weight to the uphill
side of the vehicle. Never attempt to turn the vehicle around
on any hill until you have mastered the turning techniques
described in this manual on level ground. Avoid crossing
the side of a steep hill if possible.
