OPERATION Reverse Operation (Electronic) Forward When running in reverse, again push the yellow reverse button on the left-hand control for one second and release. The engine will slow and and begin to rotate forward. The light on the instrument panel will shut off. Make sure the area around you is clear and apply throttle slowly until you're certain you're going forward. NOTE: If the engine has stopped running, the snowmobile will run forward the next time it's started. Altitude Setting At higher altitudes (above 6000 feet), the engine will require a different ignition setting to improve the success of this reverse system. To set for higher altitude: start the engine and hold the button down until the light on the instrument panel flashes rapidly, then release the button. This is the setting for higher elevations. To set the reverse for lower elevations, remain holding the button down until the reverse indicator light blinks slowly. Once set, it's held in memory until changed, whether the machine is running or not. Daily Storage At the end of your ride, park the snowmobile on a level surface and support it at the rear with the appropriate track stand. The track should be suspended approximately 4″ (20 cm) off the ground. Remove the key and cover the machine. NOTE: Polaris has accessory covers and track stands available to fit all models. See your dealer for more information. 92
