FEATURES AND CONTROLS

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 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 indicator shows

the gear the transmission is in:

H = High Range

L = Low Range

N = Neutral

R = Reverse

P = Park (if equipped)

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 and 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. Check Engine Warning Indicator - The word HOT will display

alphanumerically when the engine is overheating. Do not continue

to operate the ATV is this warning appears or serious engine

damage could result.
