FEATURES

Adjustable Headlights

Adjust the headlight beam by moving

the adjuster to the left or right.

Cargo Rack

If equipped, the maximum weight

capacity for the rear cargo rack is 15

lbs. (7 kg). Always secure cargo before

operating. Do not exceed the rack

weight limit. Do not allow a passenger

to sit on the seat back or the cargo rack.

Detonation Elimination Technology (DET)

The DET system prevents damage to the engine from detonation by

automatically reducing the engine timing and adding fuel whenever the

sensors detect detonation.

You may notice decreased engine RPM and performance when DET is

activated, but in most cases DET activation is temporary, and the timing

will return to normal automatically. In extreme conditions the DET sys-

tem retards timing and holds it in a retarded state. If this occurs, replace

the fuel with recommended fuel or see your Polaris dealer for service.

Sensor Fail-Safe

The DET includes a sensor fail-safe system to prevent the engine from

damage if the sensor fails, becomes disconnected or is unable to detect

detonation. The rider will experience a loss of power. The sensor must

be reconnected or repaired to regain full power. See your Polaris dealer

for service if this occurs.

NOTE: The check engine light will flash six times if the sensor fails or

becomes disconnected.
