Batteries

This vehicle is equipped with six 8-volt batteries that supply the power needed to operate the vehicle. Refer to the battery maintenance section beginning on page 80 for battery safety warnings and safe handling and maintenance procedures.

• Always make sure that all electrical accessories are grounded directly

to the battery (-) post. Never use the chassis or body as a ground connection.

• Always observe all battery safety warnings and safe handling proce-

dures.

• Always keep battery terminals and connections clean and free of cor-

rosion at all times.

• Always maintain a full charge on the batteries. For best battery life,

batteries should not be discharged more than 80% of their rated capacity.

• New batteries should be given a full charge before use.

• New deep cycle batteries need to be cycled several times before

reaching full capacity (50-125 cycles, depending on type). Capacity will be limited during this time.

• Vent caps should be correctly installed and tight during vehicle opera-

tion and battery charging.

• Recharge batteries at the end of every day the vehicle is operated.

Allow time for the charger to complete its charge cycle.

• The batteries in this vehicle do not have a “memory effect”. Frequent

charging will extend their life.

WARRANTY

LIMITED WARRANTY

Polaris Sales Inc., 2100 Highway 55, Medina, MN 55340, gives a TWO YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY on all components of your Polaris vehicle against defects in material or workmanship. This warranty covers the parts and labor charges for repair or replacement of defective parts which are covered by this warranty. This warranty begins on the date of purchase. This warranty is transfer able to another consumer during the warranty period through a Polaris dealer. The warranty coverage ends two years from the date of purchase.

REGISTRATION

At the time of sale, the Warranty Registration Form must be completed by your dealer and submitted to Polaris within ten days. Upon receipt of this registration, Polaris will record the registration for warranty. No verification of registration will be sent to the purchaser as the copy of the Warranty Registration Form will be the warranty entitlement. If you have not signed the original registration and received the customer copy, please contact your dealer immediately. NO WARRANTY COVERAGE WILL BE ALLOWED UNLESS YOUR VEHICLE IS REGISTERED WITH POLARIS.

Initial dealer preparation and set-up of your vehicle is very important in ensuring trouble-free operation. Purchasing a machine in the crate or with out proper dealer set-up will void your warranty coverage.

WARRANTY

LIMITATIONS OF WARRANTIES AND REMEDIES

The Polaris limited warranty excludes any failures that are not caused by a defect in material or workmanship. This warranty does not cover accidental damage, normal wear and tear, abuse or improper handling. This warranty also does not cover any vehicle that has been altered structurally, modified, neglected, improperly maintained, used for racing, or used for purposes other than for which it was manufactured, or for any damages which occur during trailer transit or as a result of unauthorized service or the use of unauthorized parts. In addition, this warranty does not cover physical dama ge to paint or finish, stress cracks, tearing or puncturing of upholstery material, corrosion, or defects in parts, components or the vehicle due to fire, explosions or any other cause beyond Polaris' control.

The Polaris limited warranty excludes any battery failures that are not caused by a defect in material or workmanship. Warranty claims for battery replacements require specific testing as outlined by the Polaris Warranty Depa r tment and the battery manufacturer U.S. Battery prior to replacement. If the Polaris Wa rranty Department in conjunction with U.S. Battery determines that the failure of th e bat tery is ca used by a de fect in m aterial or workmanship, Polaris will assist with the processing of the warranty claim through U.S. Battery for a replacement battery. This warranty does not cover the time required to test and/or diagnose issues with the battery . Consequential damage caused by defective batteries are excluded from this warranty. Use of any charger not recommended by Polaris and/or modifications to the vehicle will void any stated or implied warranty on the battery. Battery warranty limitations include abuse or neglect such as improper fluid levels, loose wiring, or rusted or corroded hardware; Lack of proper maintenance; Damage caused by improper installation of the battery; Neglect, breakage, freezing, fire, explosion, wreckage, the addition of any chemical, operation of the battery in an overcharged condition, or the operation of the battery in an uncharged condition (below half-charge – 1.200 specific gravity); and a battery charged by systems o ther than those supplied or recommended by Polaris.

This warranty does not cover the use of unauthorized lubricants, che micals, or fuels that are not compatible with the vehicle. Th e exclusive remedy for breach of this warranty shall be, at Polaris' exclusive option, repair or replacement of any defective materials, or components or products. THE REMEDIES SET FORTH IN THIS WARRANTY ARE THE ONLY REMEDIES AVAILABLE TO ANY PERSON FOR BREACH OF THIS WARRANTY. POLARIS SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY TO ANY PERSON FOR INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR SPECIAL DAMAGES OF ANY DESCRIPTION, WHETHER ARISING OUT OF EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY OR ANY OTHER CONTRACT, NEGLIGENCE, OR OTHER TORT OR OTHERWISE THIS EXCLUSION OF CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, AND SPECIAL DAMAGES IS INDEPENDENT FROM AND SHALL SURVIVE ANY FINDING THAT THE EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FAILED OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. Some states do not permit the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages or implied warranties, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you if inconsistent with controlling state law.

WARRANTY

LIMITATIONS OF WARRANTIES AND REMEDIES

U.S. Battery’s liability shall be to replace the defective battery. Replacement shall mean furnishing a new battery or used battery with sufficient life to complete the warranty term, which is incidental or reasonably equivalent to the warranted product at no cost to the purchaser during the replacement period.

ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE) ARE LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE ABOVE TWO YEAR WARRANTY PERIOD. POLARIS FURTHER DISCLAIMS ALL EXPRESS WARRANTIES NOT STATED IN THIS WA RRANTY. Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply

to you if inconsistent with controlling state law

HOW TO OBTAIN WARRANTY SERVICE

If your vehicle requires warranty service, you must take it to a Polaris Servicing Dealer. When requesting warranty service you must present your copy of the Warranty Registration form to the dealer. (THE COST OF TRANSPORTATION TO AND FROM THE DEALER IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY). Polaris suggests that you use your original selling dealer; however, you may use any Polaris Servicing Dealer to perform warranty service.

Please work with your dealer to resolve any warranty issues. Should your dealer require any additional assistance they will contact the appropriate person at Polaris.

This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.

If any of the above terms are void because of state or federal law, all other warranty terms will remain in effect.

Lubricants

1. Mixing oil brands or using non-recommended oil may cause engine damage. We recommend the use of Polaris gearcase oil.

2. Damage resulting from the use of non-recommended lubricants may not be covered by warranty.

WARRANTY

If you purchase a Polaris product from a private citizen outside of the country in which the vehicle was originally purchased, all warranty coverage will be denied.

Notice
