OPERATION

Parking the Vehicle

1.Stop the vehicle on a level surface. When parking inside a garage or other structure, be sure that the structure is well ventilated and that the vehicle is not close to any source of flame or sparks, including any appliance with pilot lights.

2.Place the transmission in PARK.

3.Turn the engine off.

4.Remove the ignition key to prevent unauthorized use.

Know Your Riding Area/Tread Lightly

Familiarize yourself with all laws and regulations concerning the opera- tion of this vehicle in your area. Respect the environment in which you ride your vehicle. Find out where the designated riding areas are by con- tacting your POLARIS dealer, a local riding club, or local officials.

Help keep our trails open for recreational vehicle use. As an off-road enthusiast, you represent the sport and can set a good example (or a poor example) for others to follow. Tread lightly. Operate with respect for the terrain, avoid littering, and always stay on the designated trails.

Trail Etiquette

Always practice good etiquette when riding. Allow a safe distance between your vehicle and other vehicles operating in the same area. Communicate to oncoming operators by signaling the number of vehi- cles in your group. When stopping, move your vehicle to the edge of the trail as far as possible to allow others to pass safely.
