MAINTENANCE
Seat Belts
Inspect all three seat belts for proper operation before each use of the
vehicle.
1. Push the latch plate into the buckle until it clicks. The latch plate
must slide smoothly into the buckle. A click indicates that it's
securely latched.
2. Push the red button in the middle of the buckle to make sure it
releases freely.
3. Check the belt webbing
for wear, cuts or damage.
If any irregularities are
found, have the seat belt
system checked and/or
replaced by an authorized
Polaris dealer.
The RANGER seat belt is
adjustable and should be
adjusted for both the operator
and passengers before driv-
ing. Although having the belt
at 30 ° is typical for many peo-
ple, it will not accommodate
all body sizes and shapes.
Make sure the seat belt is
adjusted to the lowest possible lap position before riding.
1. To adjust, loosen the bolts.
2. Reposition both the buckle and retractor. Tighten the bolts.
NOTE: The center belt does not self adjust. Before riding, pull on the strap to
secure the belt on the lap of the center passenger.
