SAFETY

Safe Riding Gear

Always wear appropriate clothing when riding an ATV. Wear protective

clothing for comfort and to reduce the chance of injury.

Helmet
Wearing a helmet can prevent a severe head injury. Whenever riding a

Polaris vehicle, always wear a helmet that meets or exceeds established

safety standards. A passenger (on approved models) should wear a hel-

met that includes a rigid chin guard.
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.
