FEATURES

Instrument Cluster

Rider Information Center

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

segments will light up for 2.5 seconds at start-up.

NOTE: 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 cluster’s electrical system. If

this occurs, take the ATV to your Polaris dealer for proper

diagnosis.

1. Gear Indicator - As the shift lever is moved, this indicates the

gear the transmission is in:

H = High Range

L = Low Range

N = Neutral

R = Reverse

P = Park

2. AWD Indicator - This

indicator illuminates

when the electrical

portion of the AWD

system is enabled.

3. Engine Hour Display Indicator
4. Service Interval/Diagnostic Mode Indicator
5. Low Battery or Over Voltage - This warning usually indicates

that the ATV is being operated at an RPM too low to keep the

battery charged. A low battery warning may also occur under normal

operation if the machine is at idle and high electrical load (lights,

cooling fan, accessories) is applied. Driving at a higher RPM or

connecting a battery charger will usually clear the warning.

6. Odometer/Tachometer/Tripmeter/ Hour Meter
7. Fuel Gauge - The segments of the fuel gauge show the level of

fuel in the fuel tank. When the last segment clears, a low fuel

warning is activated. All segments will flash, “FUEL” will display

in the LCD, and the speedometer needle will blink. Refuel

immediately.

8. Check Engine Warning Indicator - This indicator serves two

purposes. The word HOT displays if the engine overheats. It also

appears if an EFI-related fault occurs. Do not operate the ATV if

this warning appears. Serious engine damage could result.

9. Mode Indicator
