Operation Warning Decal

An operation warning decal is

present on the console of the Polaris

Frontier snowmobile in both

English (PN 7078056) and French

(PN 7078057):

Read and understand warnings

and the Owner’s Manual before

operation. Severe injury or death

can result from not heeding the

warnings.

Never consume alcohol or drugs before or while operating this ve-

hicle.

Night riding, limited visibility, or excessive speeds may cause over-

driving of headlights resulting in insufficient time to react to terrain

changes or avoid unexpected obstacles.

This vehicle is capable of high speeds. Buried objects or uneven ter-

rain can cause loss of control. Exercise extreme caution when oper-

ating in unfamiliar terrain.

This vehicle is designed for adult use only. The vehicle size, speed

capabilities and control requirement prohibit operation by children.

Operating this vehicle with a passenger (on approved models only)

reduces your ability to control the vehicle due to the added weight

and change in weight distribution. Reduce vehicle speeds and allow

extra space for maneuvering since steering control may be reduced.

Always wear an approved helmet, eye protection, and adequate

clothing while operating this vehicle.

The Auxiliary Shut-Off Switch is the primary means of stopping this

vehicle in case of an emergency and is located on the top of the

throttle control assembly. Depress the switch to stop the engine and

vehicle. Routinely check this switch for proper function with the en-

gine idling.

Steering and braking ability are greatly reduced when operating on

hard-packed snow, ice, or when crossing roads. Reduced speed and

extra care are required to maintain vehicle control.

Carbide skags and studs enhance vehicle control on ice or hard-

packed surfaces. Care must be taken to maintain a proper balance

of ski carbides to track studs to maintain proper vehicle control. (See

the Owner’s Manual for proper use of traction accessories.)

Never permit a guest to operate this vehicle unless the guest has

read the Owner’s Manual and warnings.
