WELCOME

Dear Parents:

We believe your children should have the opportunity to enjoy the

snowmobile riding experience along with you. We've provided this

owner's manual to assist you and your children in learning about the safe

operation and care of your new POLARIS snowmobile. Please review

the information in this manual with any child who may operate the

snowmobile. Help your children learn to operate the snowmobile with

safety as a top priority. Help them also learn to show respect for our

environment and for the rights of others while operating the

snowmobile. Since the operator will be a newcomer to the exciting

winter sport of snowmobiling, please be sure he/she understands this

information before riding the snowmobile. Never allow a child to

operate the snowmobile without adult supervision.

This owner's manual contains instructions for minor maintenance, but

major repairs are covered in the POLARIS Service Manual and should

be performed by a factory certified Master Service Dealer®(MSD)

technician. Be sure to return to your dealership for all of your service

needs during, and after, the warranty period.

The preventive maintenance program outlined in this manual is

designed to ensure that all critical components on your child's

snowmobile are thoroughly inspected at various intervals. If you have

any questions about the snowmobile, contact a POLARIS dealer for

assistance. See page 82 for the part numbers of POLARIS products.

WELCOME

Dear Children:

Before you ride your new POLARIS snowmobile, there are some

important things that you need to know. Your parents and POLARIS

want you to enjoy riding your new snowmobile, and that's why you need

to read and understand the information in your owner's manual.

Ask your parents to explain anything you don't understand, and pay

close attention to the warnings and instructions you read. Your safety

and the safety of others is the most important thing to think about at all

times.

As the driver of the snowmobile, you must learn how to keep yourself

and those around you safe while you're riding. So read your manual, and

then enjoy riding your new POLARIS snowmobile!

INTRODUCTION

Important Notes for Owners and Drivers

After reading this manual, store it in the snowmobile for convenient

reference. It should remain with the snowmobile when the snowmobile

is sold.

You and your dealer must complete the registration form included with

your snowmobile and forward it to us. This completed form is necessary

to ensure warranty coverage.

TIP:The illustrations and photos used in this manual are general

representations. Your model may differ.

PARENTS: Do not allow anyone under the age of six (6) to operate this

machine. Review the information in this manual with any child who

may be operating the snowmobile. It is up to you to teach any operator

the proper and safe way to ride a snowmobile. You must set boundaries

and adhere to them, keeping the operator's safety foremost in your mind.

Never allow a child to operate this machine without adult supervision.

These units are not designed for adult use. Serious damage to the vehicle

may occur if the maximum rider weight capacity is exceeded. Never

exceed the maximum rider weight capacity. See page 80.

CHILDREN: Before you ride your new POLARIS snowmobile, there

are some important things that you need to know. Your safety and the

safety of others is the most important thing to think about at all times.

As the driver of the snowmobile, you must learn how to keep yourself

and those around you safe while you're riding.

Pay attention when you see this symbol:

IMPORTANT

Parents should sit down with their children and read the Youth Section with

them before allowing them to use this snowmobile. Parents must also read the

Adult Section before allowing their children to ride this snowmobile.

This is the safety alert symbol. When you see this symbol on your

snowmobile or in this manual it means PAY ATTENTION because you

could die or be seriously hurt if you don't follow the instructions.

INTRODUCTION

Preservation of the Environment

Teach your child to drive their snowmobile with consideration for the

protection and preservation of the environment.

Noise

One of the most publicized subjects with regard to snowmobiles is

noise. The Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), which is the

standard-setting body for snowmobiles, has recommended that

snowmobiles conform to prescribed sound levels. This POLARIS

snowmobile has been engineered to conform to these SAE standards.

In order to be meaningful, all regulations require the cooperation of the

snowmobile owner. Muffling systems, designed to reduce noise levels,

should not be altered or removed. Snowmobile drivers must be aware

that they have a public responsibility to operate their snowmobiles with

concern for others. As a snowmobile operator you may not realize the

sound of your snowmobile may annoy non-snowmobilers. We are

attempting to do our part through the manufacture of quieter machines,

and we also ask your help in the effort to further reduce the impact of

noise.

Air Pollution

As a part of POLARIS' plan for the snowmobile's compatibility within

the environment, our engineers are investigating ways to reduce

emission levels of engines. We expect our efforts to lead to the reduction

of potential air pollution.

The four-stroke engine used in this snowmobile produces less exhaust

emissions and reduces noise, as well.

In addition to technological research, we also suggest that governmental

agencies, manufacturers, distributors, dealers, ecologists, and other

interested parties work together to develop data on environmental

topics. We will continue to participate in this type of study so that

someday we may find the answers to these difficult issues.

INTRODUCTION

Preservation of the Environment

Environmental Protection

As part of the continuing environmental education campaign, we are

encouraging state and provincial governments across the snowbelt to

adopt rigorous safety training programs which also encourage

protection of our environment, wildlife and vegetation. Snowmobile

clubs and other organizations are working together to protect our

environment. It is very important that we encourage them as well as

become actively involved ourselves.

• Protect and preserve your right to ride by joining your local trail

riding clubs.

• Teach your child the importance of respecting our snowmobiles as

well as the environment in which we ride.
