SAFETY
OWNER REQUIREMENTS
Improper use, maintenance, or modification of this vehicle can lead to
serious injury or death.
Require proper use of your vehicle. Do not allow
anyone to operate your vehicle or ride as a passenger
unless they are properly instructed and you are sure
they are willing to ride responsibly. To prevent
unauthorized use, always remove the ignition key
when the vehicle is not in use.
Any modifications or installation of non-POLARIS-approved accessories
could increase the risk of injury. While you may find aftermarket products
similar in design and quality to POLARIS accessories, recognize that some
aftermarket accessories or modifications are not suitable because of potential
safety hazards to you or others. It is never appropriate to install any additional
seating.
Check with the manufacturer to determine any potential effect of a modification
or accessory on the safe use of your vehicle. You are responsible for injuries
related to modifications to the vehicle. Modifications or accessories may:
• Damage machine components - especially modifications that increase speed
or power.
• Make the vehicle less stable at higher speeds.
• Add weight, reducing the amount of cargo and total weight you can carry, and
raise the vehicle’s center of gravity.
• Overload the vehicle’s electrical system capacity (see page 149). Blowing a
fuse may cause a loss of lights or engine power.
• Reduce the effectiveness of occupant protection systems, including the
seatbelts and the Rollover Protective Structure (ROPS).
• Make it illegal to own or operate your vehicle. POLARIS-authorized spark
arresters, mufflers, and emissions control components are mandatory for
ownership or operation in many areas.
• Void your warranty.
The vehicle ROPS, when used with the seat belts and doors, provides a
structure to help protect occupants. The structure will not protect occupants
in all rollovers or accidents.
