INTRODUCTION
Important Notes for Owners and Drivers
After reading this manual, store it in the snowmobile for convenient ref-
erence. It should remain with the snowmobile when the snowmobile is
sold.
Some of the illustrations and photos used in this manual are general rep-
resentations. Your model may dier.
Follow the maintenance program outlined in this manual. Preventive
maintenance ensures that critical components of the snowmobile are
inspected by your dealer at specific mileage intervals.
You and your dealer must complete the registration form included with
your snowmobile and forward it to us. This completed form is necessary
to ensure warranty coverage.
Protect and preserve your right to ride by joining your local trail riding
clubs.
When teaching inexperienced operators to ride, set up a predetermined
course for practice. Make sure they know how to drive and control the
snowmobile before allowing them to make longer trips. Teach them
proper snowmobile courtesy, and enroll them in drivers training and
safety courses sponsored by local or state organizations.

INTRODUCTION
Preservation of the Environment
POLARIS is committed to supporting an environmental education cam-
paign. We encourage state and provincial governments across the snow-
belt to adopt rigorous safety training programs that encourage protection
of our environment, including wildlife and vegetation.
Snowmobile clubs and other organizations are working together to pro-
tect our environment. Please support their efforts and operate your
snowmobile with consideration for the protection and preservation of
our environment.
Noise Level
One of the most publicized issues about snowmobiles is noise. The
Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), the standard-setting body for
snowmobile development, recommends that snowmobiles conform to
prescribed sound levels.
POLARIS snowmobiles are engineered to conform to these SAE stan-
dards. Our muffler systems are designed to reduce noise levels and must
not be altered or removed. The sound of your snowmobile may not be
welcome to non-snowmobilers, so you have a responsibility to operate
your snowmobile with concern for others. We do our part by manufac-
turing quieter snowmobiles; we ask your help to further reduce the
impact of noise by operating your snowmobile safely and responsibly.

SAFETY
Operator Safety
Follow the recommended maintenance program outlined beginning on
page 90 of this manual to ensure that all critical components on the
snowmobile are thoroughly inspected by your dealer at specific mileage
intervals.
Driving a snowmobile requires your full attention. DO NOT drink alcohol or use
drugs or medications before or while driving or riding as a passenger. They will
reduce your alertness and slow your reaction time.
Snowmobiles are capable of traveling at high speeds. Use extra caution to
ensure operator safety. Make sure your snowmobile is in excellent operating
condition at all times. Always check major and vital safety components before
every ride.
All POLARIS snowmobiles are designed and tested to provide safe operation
when used as directed. Failure of critical machine components may result from
operation with any modifications, especially those that increase speed or power.
DO NOT MODIFY YOUR MACHINE. The snowmobile may become aerody-
namically unstable at speeds higher than those for which it is designed. Loss of
control may occur at higher speeds. Modifications may also create a safety haz-
ard and lead to bodily injury.
The warranty on your entire machine is terminated if any equipment has
been added, or any modifications have been made, to increase the speed or
power of the snowmobile.
WARNING
10
SAFETY
Operator Safety
Stay Clear of Track
Your snowmobile is propelled by a
revolving track that must be partially
exposed for proper operation.
WARNING! Serious injuries may result if
hands, feet, or clothing become entangled in
the track. Be alert when riding, and remain
properly seated to stay clear of the track.
Never hold the snowmobile up or stand
behind it while warming up the track. A loose
track or flying debris could cause serious
injury or death. We recommend having your
dealer perform all track service and
alignment procedures.
Stay Clear of Engine
Never attempt adjustments with the engine running. Turn off the igni-
tion, raise the hood, make the adjustment, secure shields and guards,
secure the hood, and then restart the engine to check its operation.
WARNING! Serious injury can occur if fingers or clothing contact the moving
parts of an engine. Always stop the engine before attempting adjustments.
11
SAFETY
Operator Safety
Riding Position
Operating a snowmobile requires skill and balance for proper control.
Rider positions may vary with experience; but under many conditions,
the proper position is to be seated with both feet on the running boards
and both hands on the handlebar grips for proper throttle, brake and
steering control.
WARNING! Improper riding position may reduce control and could result in
serious injury or death. Always ride in a position that allows for control of your
vehicle.
Survival Preparation
For your safety, always ride in a group of other snowmobilers. Always
tell someone where you’re going and how long you expect to be gone. If
it isn’t possible to ride with others, and you must travel into remote
areas, always carry survival equipment that’s appropriate to the condi-
tions you may encounter. Such equipment may include, but is not lim-
ited to: extra clothing, a sleeping bag, a flashlight, food and water, a
signaling mirror, a means of building a fire, and a two-way radio or cel-
lular telephone.
Always carry the owners manual on your snowmobile. For added pro-
tection, purchase and carry the following items on your snowmobile as
well:
Spare Drive Belt Winter Survival Kit
Extra Set of Spark Plugs Trail Map
Tow Rope First Aid Kit
Extra Oil Tool Kit
Fuel Deicer

Riding Apparel
Helmet
Wearing a helmet can prevent a severe head injury. Whenever riding a
POLARIS vehicle, always wear a helmet that meets or exceeds estab-
lished safety standards.
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.
Eye Protection
Do not depend on eyeglasses or sunglasses for eye protection. When-
ever riding a POLARIS vehicle, always wear shatterproof goggles or
use a shatterproof helmet face shield. POLARIS recommends wearing
approved Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) bearing markings such
as VESC 8, V-8, Z87.1, or CE. Make sure protective eye wear is kept
clean.
Clothing
Be prepared, be warm and be com-
fortable when riding. Be aware of
the weather forecast, especially the
windchill, and dress accordingly.
See the chart on page 23.
WARNING! Avoid wearing loose
clothing or long scarves, which can
become entangled in moving parts and
cause serious injury. Always wear an
approved helmet and eye protection.

Rider Capacity
Driving 1-Up - Some POLARIS snowmobiles are designed for a single
rider only. A decal on the console of these models indicates single rider
operation.
Driving 2-Up - Some POLARIS snowmobiles are designed for up to
two riders. A decal on the hood of these models indicates that the vehi-
cle is designed for one operator and one passenger only.
WARNING! Control becomes more difficult with two people on board. More
space is required to make turns, and longer distances are needed for stopping.
Make sure the passenger remains seated behind the driver, facing forward, with
both feet placed firmly on the running boards. Slow down and avoid “jumping”
your snowmobile.
Snowmobiles designed for two riders should never be operated with
more than two people on board. When traveling with a passenger, it’s
the drivers responsibility to operate the snowmobile safely.
Slow down! Control becomes more difficult with two people on board.
More space is required to make turns, and longer distances are necessary
for stopping.

Disabled Operators
Safe operation of this rider-active vehicle requires good judgement and
physical skills.
WARNING! Operators with cognitive or physical disabilities have an increased
risk of loss of control, which could result in serious injury or death. Do not allow
disabled persons to operate this vehicle.
Cargo Overload
Too much weight on the rear of the snowmobile may reduce your ability
to steer. Do not exceed carrier and rack weight limits, and do not allow a
passenger to sit on the seat back or the cargo carrier.
15
SAFETY
Operator Safety
Excessive Speed
WARNING! High speed driving, especially at night, could result in serious injury
or death. Always reduce speed when driving at night or in inclement weather.
Always observe all state and local laws governing snowmobile opera-
tion and speed limits. Always be alert and pay attention to the trail
ahead. If your speed is 40 MPH (64 km/h), your snowmobile is traveling
about 60 feet (18 m) per second. If you look back for only two seconds,
your snowmobile will travel about 120 feet (36 m). If your speed is 60
MPH (96 km/h), your snowmobile will travel about 180 feet (55 m) in
two seconds.
Traveling at night requires extra caution. Check headlight and taillight
to ensure proper operation, and don’t over-drive your headlight beam.
Always be able to bring your snowmobile to a stop in the distance illu-
minated by the headlight.
16
SAFETY
Operator Safety
Driver Awareness
Slow down when traveling near poles,
posts, or other obstacles. Be especially
alert if you’re snowmobiling after dark.
Always be on the alert for wire fences.
Single strands are especially dangerous,
since there may be a great distance
between posts. Guy wires on utility poles
are also difficult to distinguish.
Make sure the way is clear before crossing
railroads and other roads and highways.
The noise of your snowmobile will drown
out the sound of approaching vehicles.
Look ahead, behind, and to both sides
before turning or crossing railroad tracks
or highways. Steep embankments may
also hide your view. Always leave yourself
a way out.
Variances in snow depth and/or water currents may result in uneven ice
thickness. You may drown if you break through the ice. Never travel on
frozen bodies of water unless you have first verified that the ice is suffi-
ciently thick to support the weight and moving force of the snowmobile,
you and your cargo, together with any other vehicles in your party.
Always check with local authorities and residents to confirm ice condi-
tions and thickness over your entire route. Snowmobile operators
assume all risk associated with ice conditions on frozen bodies of water.
When teaching inexperienced operators to ride, set up a predetermined
course for practice. Make sure they know how to drive and control the
snowmobile before allowing them to make longer trips. Teach them
proper snowmobile courtesy, and enroll them in drivers training and
safety courses sponsored by local or state organizations.

Avalanches
Snowmobilers should always be properly trained and equipped before
traveling in mountainous terrain:
Take an avalanche class
Travel with experienced people
Travel on designated trails
Make sure each person is equipped
with a shovel, probe and avalanche
beacon.
You don’t have to be snowmobiling on a
slope for an avalanche to occur. Be aware
that all of the snow is connected. You may be riding on a flat slope or
snow covered road, but if the snowpack above is unstable enough you
can trigger an avalanche on a steeper slope above you. Always be aware
of snow conditions above you as you travel in mountainous terrain.
Before riding in mountainous terrain, call or log on to your local ava-
lanche advisory to get current weather and snow stability information.
For more information about avalanche training and avalanche condi-
tions, contact local law enforcement in your area, or visit the American
and Canadian online avalanche centers at www.avalanche.org.

SAFETY
Operator Safety
Ice and Snow Build-up
WARNING! Ice and snow build-up may interfere with the steering of your
snowmobile, resulting in serious injury or death. Keep the underhood area free
of snow and ice.
Before driving, manually turn the skis to the left and right to be sure ice
and snow are not interfering with full left and right steering. If difficulty
is encountered, remove ice and snow build-up that may be obstructing
the steering linkage.
If your snowmobile is equipped with RIDER SELECT, perform this
check in both the full up and full down steering positions.
Driving Downhill
When riding downhill, shift your weight to the rear of the snowmobile
and reduce your speed to a minimum. Apply just enough throttle to keep
the clutch engaged, allowing the engine’s compression to help slow the
snowmobile and keep it from rolling freely downhill.
WARNING! When driving on long downhill stretches, pump the brakes. Riding
the brakes may cause the brake system to overheat, which may result in brake
failure. Excessive or repetitive use of the brakes for high speed stops will also
cause an overheated brake system. This condition may lead to a sudden loss of
brakes and/or fire and may result in serious injury or death.
19
SAFETY
Operator Safety
Driving on Slippery Surfaces
WARNING! Never attempt an abrupt change of direction when operating on
slippery surfaces. Proceed slowly and use extra caution. Driving on ice or hard-
packed snow reduces steering and braking control, which may result in loss of
control and serious injury or death. Slow down and use extra caution when
operating on slippery surfaces.
Driving on Slopes
WARNING! Climbing a hill or crossing the face of a slope may result in loss of
balance and snowmobile rollover, causing serious injury or death. Use caution
and good judgement when driving in hilly terrain.
Use extra caution when operating in hilly terrain. If climbing a hill is
unavoidable, keep your weight low and forward. If you must cross the
face of a slope, keep your weight on the uphill side of the snowmobile to
maintain proper balance and avoid possible rollover.
Slow down when reaching the crest of a hill. Be prepared to react to
obstacles, sharp drops or other people or vehicles that may be on the
other side of the hill.
If you’re unable to continue up a hill, turn the snowmobile downhill
before it loses momentum. If this isn’t possible, spin the track just
enough to dig in to prevent it from rolling back down the hill. Stop the
engine and set the parking brake (if equipped). Keeping away from the
downhill side of the snowmobile, pull the rear of the snowmobile
around and point the front end and skis downhill. Remount the snowmo-
bile, restart the engine, release the parking brake, and descend the hill
carefully.

SAFETY
Operator Safety
Drive Belt
Do not operate the engine with the drive belt removed.
Any servicing that requires operation without a belt must be performed
by your dealer.
CAUTION! Operation of the engine with the belt removed may result in
personal injury or damage to the engine.
Intake Silencer
Do not operate the engine with the intake silencer or lter removed.
NOTICE: Damage to the engine may occur if the intake silencer or filter are
removed.
Clutches
Do not attempt to service the clutches.
All clutch service must be performed by your dealer. The clutch is a
complex mechanism that rotates at high speeds. Each clutch is dynami-
cally balanced before installation. Any tampering may disrupt this preci-
sion balancing and create an unstable condition.
Cold Weather Drive-Away
Whenever your snowmobile has been parked for a length of time, espe-
cially overnight, always make sure the skis and track are loosened from
ice and snow before attempting to drive. Apply the throttle with enough
authority to put the snowmobile into motion, but always operate within
safety limits and, on 2-up snowmobiles, with respect for a passenger.
Maneuverability
While much control and maneuverability is achieved through the steer-
ing system and skis, maximum control is achieved by the shifting of
your body weight. Maneuverability will change for lighter operators or
snowmobiles designed to carry a load or a passenger.
21
SAFETY
Operator Safety
Inadequate Snow Conditions
Since snow provides the only lubrication for the power slide suspension
and, on liquid cooled models, cooling for the engine, adequate snow
cover is a requirement for operation of your snowmobile.
NOTICE: Driving in too little snow will result in excessive wear and damage to
the slide rail, track and/or engine.
WARNING! Inadequate cooling and lubrication will lead to overheating of the
slide rail and track, causing premature wear, damage and failure, which can
result in serious injury. Reduce speeds and frequently drive into fresh snow to
allow adequate cooling and polishing of the slide rail and track surfaces. Avoid
operating for prolonged periods on ice, hard-packed surfaces or roads.
Operating in Deep Snow
If the snowmobile becomes stuck in snow, clear the running board area
of snow, then step down the snow in front of the snowmobile so that
when the throttle is opened, the snowmobile will be able to climb up and
over the snow.
22
SAFETY
Operator Safety
Driving Responsibly
Every snowmobile handles differently, and even the most docile condi-
tions may become dangerous if operators drive improperly. If you’re
new to snowmobiling, acquaint yourself with the snowmobile and with
what it will and won’t do under various conditions. Even seasoned driv-
ers should spend some time getting the feel for a snowmobile before
attempting ambitious maneuvers.
A snowmobile depends on the riders body position for proper bal-
ance in executing turns, traversing hills, etc. Always start on a
smooth, level area to begin building your operating experience.
Before allowing someone else to use your snowmobile, know the
extent of their operating skills. Check to see if they’ve taken a snow-
mobile safety course and have an operators certicate. For their pro-
tection, as well as yours, make sure they take a snowmobile safety
course. Everyone can benefit from the course.
Don't “jump” your snowmobile over large drifts or similar terrain.
Jumping may injure your back because of spinal compression that
could occur when the snowmobile impacts the ground. The seat and
suspension of your snowmobile have been designed to provide pro-
tection under normal riding conditions. Your snowmobile is not
intended for this kind of use.
Be courteous to oncoming traffic by dimming your headlights and
reducing your speed.
When traveling in a group of snowmobiles, don’t tailgate (follow too
closely). Leave enough distance between snowmobiles to provide
ample stopping room and to provide protection from flying snow and
debris. Allow even more distance when driving on slippery surfaces
or when driving in darkness or other low visibility conditions. Be
aware of any snowmobile trac around your vehicle. Drive defen-
sively to avoid accidents.
Remove the key from the ignition when you leave the snowmobile
unattended.

Operation Warning
An operation warning decal is present on the console of all POLARIS
snowmobiles:
WARNING
To avoid serious injury or death, read and understand all warnings
and the Owner’s Manual before operation. If manual is missing, con-
tact a POLARIS dealer for a replacement.
This vehicle is capable of high speeds. Buried objects or uneven
terrain can cause loss of control. Reduce speed and use extreme
caution when operating in unfamiliar terrain.
Excessive speed, especially at night or with limited visibility, can
result in insufficient time for you to react to terrain changes, to
avoid unexpected obstacles, or to stop safely.
Never consume alcohol or drugs before or while operating this vehi-
cle.
In an emergency, push down the Auxiliary Shut-Off Switch, located
on the top of the throttle control assembly, to stop the engine. Then
pull the brake lever to stop.
Always wear an approved helmet, eye protection, and adequate
clothing while operating this vehicle.
This vehicle is designed for adult use only. Check local laws for age
requirements.
When operating with a passenger (on approved models only),
reduce speed and allow extra space for steering and stopping. A
passenger reduces your ability to control the vehicle.
When operating on hard-packed snow, ice, or when crossing roads,
steering and braking ability are greatly reduced. Reduce speed and
allow extra space to turn or stop.
To maintain vehicle control on ice or hard-packed surfaces, you
should have a proper balance of ski carbides to track studs. See
Owner’s Manual for proper use of traction products.
Repeated stops from high speed may cause fading or sudden loss
of braking ability.
Parking brake may relax when used for long periods. Do not leave
brake engaged for more than five minutes.
Before starting the engine, check throttle, brake, and steering for
proper operation. Make sure hood is latched. Be seated and in posi-
tion to control the vehicle.
Oil injection system: Use unmixed fuel only. Check oil level when
refueling.

RIDER SELECT Adjustable Steering System
The RIDER SELECT adjustable steering system (if equipped) allows
you to adjust the handlebar position to fit your style of riding. Some
models have five (5) adjustment positions. Other models have seven (7)
positions.
WARNING! If your snowmobile has five adjustment positions, do not remove
the RIDER SELECT lockout. Your POLARIS snowmobile has been engineered
for this range of adjustability. Removing this lockout and using RIDER SELECT
position 6 or 7 will result in the handlebars and brake lever contacting other
components and interfering with steering and braking. This could lead to loss of
control resulting in serious injury or death. Always be sure that the handlebars
and brake lever do not contact any other snowmobile components at any
steering position AND at any RIDER SELECT position.
Do not use RIDER SELECT positions 6 or 7 unless riding conditions require it.
Operation in position 6 or 7 can reduce vehicle handling for other types of riding
and result in serious injury or death.

FEATURES
Engine Management System
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)
Illuminated MIL
The MIL (Check Engine Indicator) will illuminate when a problem with
engine management system components is detected.
1. Turn the engine off and restart it. If the light goes off, continued
operation is permissible.
2. If the light illuminates again, determine whether engine RPM or
vehicle speed is limited, then check the charts on page 38 to identify
the cause. If you are unable to determine the cause of an illuminated
MIL, please see your POLARIS dealer.
Flashing MIL (Turbo)
The MIL will flash if an error with the turbo boost regulation system is
detected.
NOTICE: If you are unable to determine and correct the cause of a flashing MIL
or high temperature indicator, serious engine damage may occur with
continued operation. See your POLARIS dealer.
1. Verify that all electrical connections are secure.
2. Check battery voltage on the gauge, and install a new battery if volt-
age is low (see page 52).
3. Verify that engine temperature is within the recommended operating
range. See the Turbo Boost chart on page 38.
A flashing MIL may also be caused by damaged or disconnected hoses
between the turbocharger and wastegate solenoid pulse valve (located
on the engine side of the airbox) or between the wastegate actuator
(located under the turbocharger) and wastegate solenoid pulse valve. If
the hose has no damage and is not disconnected, see your dealer imme-
diately.
NOTICE: Serious engine damage may occur if the wastegate reference line is
removed or modified. DO NOT remove or modify the wastegate
reference line.

FEATURES
Engine Management System
The engine management system is programmed to alert the rider when
coolant temperatures reach higher-than-normal levels. The system
responds by taking the following sequential steps to alert the rider.
1. The High Temperature Indicator on the MFD will flash.
To cool the engine, drive the snowmobile into soft snow so that it comes
into contact with the heat exchangers on the snowmobile. Alternately,
you can stop the snowmobile and pack snow or ice onto the heat
exchangers to bring the temperature of the engine down.
2. The High Temperature Indicator on the MFD will flash and the
engine will misfire or “stutter”.
If you do not notice the flashing indicator on the MFD or do not suffi-
ciently cool the snowmobile, the engine will misfire to alert you to look
at the MFD and take action. Again, driving the snowmobile into soft
snow or packing snow onto the heat exchangers should cool the engine.
3. The engine will stop.
If the engine reaches an extreme temperature where damage becomes
possible, the system will stop the engine. This condition will occur only
after the system has taken both previous steps to alert the rider to the
extreme engine temperature. If the engine stops and you attempt to
restart it while before it has cooled sufficiently, the engine will restart
and run for two seconds but will immediately stop again.
The engine management system will also turn the engine off if the
engine reaches an extreme temperature while idling.
40
FEATURES
Knock Sensor (Turbo Models)
A knock sensor monitors the engine and responds to detonation by auto-
matically reducing the engine timing and adding fuel. This results in
decreased engine RPM and performance.
Engine performance will be reduced if fuel with a lower octane than 91
is used. See fuel recommendations on page 81.
Effect
The knock sensor system prevents damage to the engine from detona-
tion while developing the maximum power of the engine safely. If the
system senses detonation beyond a preset limit, it retards ignition timing
and adds fuel to reduce the detonation and prevent engine damage.
When the detonation returns to a permissible level, the system will
return spark and fuel to normal, allowing the engine to run at rated
power levels.
Fail-Safe
The knock sensor 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 in power.
The sensor must be reconnected or repaired to regain full power.
The check engine light will illuminate if the sensor fails or becomes dis-
connected.
