SAFETY
SAFETY TRAINING
Safety training is a top priority for POLARIS. POLARIS strongly encourages you
and any family members who will be riding this vehicle to take a training course
ROHVA® (Recreational Off-Highway Vehicle Association®) provides both an
online safety e-course and a hands-on safety course. To access this valuable
training, visit www.rohva.org.
Your POLARIS vehicle is considered an off-road vehicle. Familiarize yourself
with all laws and regulations concerning the operation of this vehicle in your
area.
We strongly advise you to strictly follow the recommended maintenance
program outlined in your owner's manual. This preventive maintenance program
is designed to ensure that all critical components on your vehicle are thoroughly
inspected at specific intervals.

SAFETY

SAFE RIDING GEAR
Always wear a helmet, eye protection, gloves, long-sleeve shirt, long pants,
over-the-ankle boots and seat belt (if equipped) at all times. Protective gear
reduces the chance of injury.
RIDER COMFORT
Under certain operating conditions, heat generated by the engine and exhaust
system can elevate temperatures in the rider cab area. The condition occurs
most frequently when a vehicle is being operated in high ambient temperatures
at low speeds and/or high load conditions for an extended period of time. The
use of certain windshield, roof and/or cab systems may contribute to this
condition by restricting airflow.
Any discomfort due to heat buildup in
this area can be minimized by wearing
proper riding apparel and by varying
speeds to increase airflow.

SAFETY

HELMET
Wearing a helmet can prevent a severe head injury. Whenever riding this
POLARIS vehicle, always wear a helmet that meets or exceeds established
safety standards. Clasp the buckle and pull each strap tight to ensure the helmet
is properly secured to the head.
Parents and supervising adults should verify that young operators have a helmet
that fits, and should obtain one of proper size if it does not fit before allowing
operation.
Approved helmets in the USA and Canada bear a U.S.
Department of Transportation (DOT) label.
Approved helmets in Europe, Asia and Oceania bear
the ECE 22.05 label. The ECE mark consists of a
circle surrounding the letter E, followed by the
distinguishing number of the country which has
granted approval. The approval number and serial
number will also be displayed on the label.
EYE PROTECTION
Do not depend on eyeglasses or sunglasses for eye protection. Whenever riding
this POLARIS vehicle, always wear shatterproof goggles or use a shatterproof
helmet face shield. POLARIS recommends wearing approved Personal
Protective Equipment (PPE) bearing markings such as VESC 8, V-8, Z87.1, or
CE. Make sure protective eye wear is kept clean.
GLOVES
Wear gloves for comfort and for protection from sun, cold weather and other
elements.
BOOTS
Wear sturdy over-the-ankle boots for support and protection. Never ride a
POLARIS vehicle with bare feet or sandals.
