FEATURES AND CONTROLS
Throttle Lever
Engine speed and vehicle
movement are controlled by
pressing the throttle lever.
The throttle lever is spring
loaded. Engine speed returns
to idle when the lever is
released.
Failure to check or maintain proper operation of the throttle system can result in
an accident if the throttle lever sticks during operation. Check the lever for
proper operation before starting the engine. Check occasionally during
operation.
Do not start or operate a vehicle with sticking or improperly operating throttle
controls. Contact your dealer for repair if throttle problems arise.
Electronic Throttle Control (ETC)
This vehicle is equipped with Polaris Electronic Throttle Control (ETC),
which is designed to reduce the risk of a frozen or stuck throttle. If the
throttle cable should stick in an open position when the operator releases
the throttle lever, the engine will stop, and power to the rear wheels will
cease.
The Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) stops the engine in the event of a throttle
system malfunction. Do not modify the ETC system or replace it with other
throttle mechanisms.
