EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS

Noise Emission Control System

Do not modify the engine, intake or exhaust components, as doing so

may affect compliance with U.S.A. EPA noise control requirements (40

CFR 205) and local noise level requirements.

Operation on Public Lands in the U.S.A.

Your Polaris vehicle has a spark arrestor that was tested and qualified

to be in accordance with the USDA Forest Service Standard 5100-1C.

Federal law requires that this spark arrestor be installed and functional

when the vehicle is operated on public lands.
Operation of off-road vehicles on public lands in the U.S.A. is

regulated by 43 CFR 8343. Violations are subject to monetary

penalties. Federal regulations can be viewed online at

www.gpoaccess.gov/ecfr/.

Crankcase Emission Control System

This engine is equipped with a closed crankcase system. Blow-by

gases are forced back to the combustion chamber by the intake system.

All exhaust gases exit through the exhaust system.

Exhaust Emission Control System

The emissions from the exhaust of this vehicle are controlled by engine

design, including factory-set fuel delivery and ignition. The engine

and related components must be maintained at Polaris specifications to

achieve optimal performance.
Engine idle speed is the only

adjustment Polaris recommends that

the operator perform. Any other

adjustments should be performed by

an authorized Polaris dealer.
The emissions label is located on the

clutch cover or engine case near the

clutch box.

NOTE: The installation of devices that effectively increase exhaust

emissions beyond their legal limits will void all manufacturer

warranties and may violate laws governing the registration

and operation of this vehicle.

Electromagnetic Interference

This spark ignition system complies with Canadian ICES-002.
This vehicle complies with European directives 97/24/EC and

89/336/EEC.
