FEATURES AND CONTROLS

Throttle Lever

Operating an ATV with sticking or improperly operating throttle controls could

cause an accident. Never start or operate an ATV that has a sticking or

improperly operating throttle. Always contact your dealer for service before

operating the vehicle.
Failure to check or maintain proper operation of the throttle system can result in

an accident if the throttle lever sticks during operation. Always check the lever

for free movement and return before starting the engine. Also check

occasionally during operation.
Modifications to the electronic throttle control could result in failure to perform as

designed, which could result in an accident. Do not attempt to modify the throttle

control system or replace it with any after market throttle mechanisms. Always

ensure that the throttle cable is installed and properly routed to the throttle

control.

Engine speed and vehicle

movement are controlled by

pressing the throttle lever. The

throttle lever is spring loaded.

Engine speed returns to idle

when the lever is released.
This ATV is equipped with

Polaris Electronic Throttle Con-

trol (ETC), which is designed to

reduce the risk of a frozen or

stuck throttle. If the throttle

cable should stick in an open position when the operator releases the

throttle lever, engine speed will be limited, and power to the rear wheels

will be reduced.
