even during routine maneuvers like turning, or driving on hills or
over obstacles, if you fail to take proper precautions.
Read and understand your owner’s manual and all warnings
before operating a Polaris ATV.

information about all aspects of your vehicle, including safe operating

Safety Training
ATV safety training is a top priority for Polaris. When you purchased
your new ATV, your dealer instructed you on the authorized ATV
RiderCourse sm available to you and your eligible family members.
This training is included in the purchase price of your ATV. Polaris
strongly encourages you and your eligible family members who will be
riding the ATV to take the ATV RiderCourse sm . You were also
provided with printed materials that explain safe operating procedures.
You should review this information on a regular basis.
If you purchased a used Polaris ATV, you can take the ATV
RiderCourse sm by calling ATV Enrollment Express at (800) 887-2887
or by visiting www.atvsafety.org. Purchasers of a used Polaris ATV
will be charged for this training.
A Polaris ATV is 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.
