Polaris recommends using gasoline that is purchased during the season the
vehicle is being used, especially summer vs. winter. Between seasons,
refineries typically change the gasoline blend to avoid temperature induced
engine performance issues. Winter blend gasoline improves engine starting in
cold weather and summer blend gasoline helps prevent vapor lock issues in hot
weather.
STARTING THE ENGINE
1. Position the vehicle on a level surface outdoors or in a well ventilated area.
2. Sit in the driver's seat and fasten the seat belt. Secure the cab doors (if
equipped).
3. Place the transmission in PARK.
4. Apply the brakes. Do not press the throttle pedal while starting the engine.
5. Turn the ignition key past the ON/RUN position to START. Engage the starter
for a maximum of five seconds. Release the key when the engine starts.
6. If the engine does not start within five seconds, return the ignition switch to
the OFF position and wait five seconds. Repeat steps 5 and 6 until the
engine starts.
7. Vary the engine RPM slightly with the throttle to aid in warm up until the
engine idles smoothly.
NOTICE
Operating the vehicle immediately after starting could cause engine damage.
Allow the engine to warm up for several minutes before operating the vehicle.
