FEATURES AND CONTROLS

Instrument Cluster

Rider Information Center

The rider information center is located in the instrument cluster. All seg-

ments will light up for 2.5 seconds at start-up. If the instrument cluster

fails to illuminate, a battery over-voltage may have occurred and the

instrument cluster may have shut off to protect the electronic speedome-

ter. If this occurs, take the ATV to your Polaris dealer for proper diagno-

sis.

indicator displays gear

shifter position:

H = High Gear

2. AWD Indicator - This

indicator illuminates

when the AWD switch

that the ATV is operating at an RPM too low to keep the battery

charged. It may also occur when the engine is at idle and high elec-
