WARNING
Do not start or operate a vehicle with sticking or improperly
operating throttle controls. Doing so could cause an a ccident and
lead to severe injury or death.
Always contact your dealer for service repairs if throttle problems
arise.
Failure to check or maintain proper operation of the throttle

operation.
Always check the lever for free movement and return before
starting the engine. Also check occasionally during operation.
Engine speed and vehicle movement
are controlled by pressing the

is spring loaded, and engine speed
returns to idle when the lever is
released.
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 should stick in an open position, engine RPM will
diminish and power to the rear wheels will cease.
WARNING
The Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) stops the engine in the
event of a throttle system malfunction and is provided for your
safety. Do not attempt to modify the ETC system or replace it
with any after market throttle mechanisms.
