OPERATION

Parking the Vehicle

1. Stop the vehicle on a level surface. When parking inside a garage or 

other structure, be sure that the structure is well ventilated and that 
the vehicle is not close to any source of flame or sparks, including 
any appliance with pilot lights.

2. Place the transmission in PARK.

3. Turn the engine off.

4. Slowly release the brake pedal and make sure the transmission is in 

PARK before exiting the vehicle.

5. Engage the park brake (if equipped).

6. Remove the ignition key to prevent unauthorized use.

Know Your Riding Area/Tread Lightly

Familiarize yourself with all laws and regulations concerning the 
operation of this vehicle in your area. Respect the environment in which 
you ride your vehicle. Find out where the designated riding areas are by 
contacting your POLARIS dealer, a local riding club, or local officials. 

Help keep our trails open for recreational vehicle use. As an off-road 
enthusiast, you represent the sport and can set a good example (or a poor 
example) for others to follow. Tread lightly. Operate with respect for the 
terrain, avoid littering, and always stay on the designated trails.

Trail Etiquette

Always practice good etiquette when riding. Allow a safe distance 
between your vehicle and other vehicles operating in the same area. 
Communicate to oncoming operators by signaling the number of 
vehicles in your group. When stopping, move your vehicle to the edge 
of the trail as far as possible to allow others to pass safely.

New Operator Driving Procedures 

13. Apply the brakes and shift into low gear.

14. Check your surroundings and determine your path of travel.

15. Release the park brake (if equipped).

16. Keeping both hands on the steering wheel, slowly release the brakes 

and depress the throttle with your right foot to begin driving.

17. Drive slowly at first. On level surfaces, practice starting, stopping, 

turning, maneuvering, using the throttle and brakes and driving in 
reverse. Learn how the vehicle handles when making both left and 
right turns at a slow speed.

WARNING! Operating in TURF mode (if equipped) when on sloped, uneven, or 
loose terrain could cause loss of control and result in serious injury or death. 
One rear wheel may slip and lose traction or may lift up and grab when it 
touches the ground again.

18. Increase speed only after mastering all maneuvers at a slow speed.

19. After you become skilled at making turns and begin to operate at 

faster speeds, follow these precautions:

• Avoid sharp turns.
• Never turn while applying heavy throttle.
• Never make abrupt steering maneuvers.
• Operate at speeds appropriate for your skills, the conditions and 

the terrain.

• DO NOT do power slides, “donuts”, jumps or other driving 

stunts.
