To change gears, stop the
vehicle, and with the engine
idling, move the lever to the
desired gear. Do not attempt
to shift gears with engine
speed above idle or while
the vehicle is moving.
Tip: Maintaining shift linkage adjustment is important to assure proper
transmission function. See your dealer if you experience any shifting
problems.
NOTICE: Do not attempt to shift the transmission while the vehicle is moving or
damage to the transmission could result. Always shift when the
vehicle is stationary and the engine is at idle.
Using Low Range
Always shift into low gear for any of the following conditions.
• Operating in rough terrain or over obstacles
• Operating in mud or other high-load conditions
• Towing heavy loads
• Loading the vehicle onto a trailer
Electronic Power Steering (EPS)
Electronic power steering (if equipped) engages when the ignition key is
turned to the ON position. EPS remains engaged whether the vehicle is
moving or idle.
The EPS warning indicator briefly illuminates when the key is turned to
the ON position. See page 38.
To conserve battery power, the EPS will shut down 5 minutes after the
engine is stopped if the key remains in the ON position. The EPS
warning indicator will illuminate to indicate the EPS has shut down.
If the light remains on after starting the engine, the EPS system is
inoperative. See your authorized POLARIS dealer for service.
