WARNING
Operating the ATV on streets or roads, especially in darkness,
could result in an accident and serious injury or death.
Your ATV is not equipped with highway-approved lights. It’s
designed for and must be used for off-road use only. Use caution
and drive at reduced speeds in conditions of reduced visibility
such as fog, rain and darkness.
The light switch is located on the left
handlebar (1). It’s used to turn the
lights on and off and to switch the
lights from high beam to low beam.
NOTE: The lights won’t work unless
the key is in the ON position
and the shut-off switch is in
the RUN position.
Indicator Lights
With the engine running, verify the function of all indicator lights each
time the ATV is used.
NOTE: The taillight is on whenever the main switch (key) is on. Turn
the key off to prevent battery drain.
