INTRODUCTION

Important Notes for Owners and Drivers

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

erence. It should remain with the snowmobile when the snowmobile is

sold.

When teaching inexperienced operators to ride, set up a predetermined

course for practice. Make sure they know how to drive and control the

snowmobile before allowing them to make longer trips. Teach them

proper snowmobile courtesy, and enroll them in driver’s training and

safety courses sponsored by local or state organizations.

Follow the maintenance program outlined in this manual. Preventive

maintenance ensures that critical components of the snowmobile are

inspected by your dealer at specific mileage intervals.

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.

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

clubs.

Some of the illustrations and photos used in this manual are general rep-

resentations. Your model may differ.

INTRODUCTION

Preservation of the Environment

Polaris is committed to supporting an environmental education cam-

paign. We encourage state and provincial governments across the snow-

belt to adopt rigorous safety training programs that encourage protection

of our environment, including wildlife and vegetation.

Snowmobile clubs and other organizations are working together to pro-

tect our environment. Please support their efforts and operate your

snowmobile with consideration for the protection and preservation of

our environment.

Noise Level

One of the most publicized issues about snowmobiles is noise. The

Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), the standard-setting body for

snowmobile development, recommends that snowmobiles conform to

prescribed sound levels.

Polaris snowmobiles are engineered to conform to these SAE standards.

Our muffler systems are designed to reduce noise levels and must not be

altered or removed. The sound of your snowmobile may not be welcome

to non-snowmobilers, so you have a responsibility to operate your

snowmobile with concern for others. We do our part by manufacturing

quieter machines; we ask your help to further reduce the impact of noise

by operating your snowmobile safely and responsibly.

Air Pollution

Polaris engineers continuously investigate ways to reduce emission lev-

els of two-stroke engines. We expect our efforts to lead to the reduction

of potential air pollution.

In addition to our technological research, we encourage government

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

interested parties to work together to develop data on environmental

topics.

INTRODUCTION

Vehicle Identification Numbers

Record your snowmobile’s identification numbers and key number in

the spaces provided. Remove the spare key and store it in a safe place.

Your key can be duplicated only by mating a Polaris key blank with one

of your existing keys, so if both keys are lost, the ignition switch must

be replaced.
