The rider information center is located in the instrument cluster. All seg-
ments will light up for 2.5 seconds at start-up. 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 electronic speedome-
ter. If this occurs, take the vehicle to your POLARIS dealer for proper
diagnosis.
