Ignition Switch

  • OFF Vehicle / PIDD power off
  • RUN Vehicle / PIDD power on
  • START Activates starter motor (if equipped)

Image
The ignition switch has three positions: OFF, RUN, and START.
If equipped with electric start, turn the key to START to crank the engine. When the key is released, it automatically returns to the RUN position.
NOTE
If the key remains in the RUN position after using the engine stop switch to stop the engine, the PIDD (POLARIS Interactive Digital Display) remains active. The PIDD screen will turn off after several minutes of inactivity, but if a battery is installed, the PIDD will continue to draw a small amount of current from the battery until the key is turned off. This feature is useful for accessing the PIDD without starting the engine, but turn the key off when the PIDD is not in use.
The PIDD is not dependent on a battery while the engine is running, but a battery (if installed) supplies a constant power source when the engine is turned off or when the engine is transitioning between forward and reverse operation. If a battery is not installed, the PIDD reboots when the engine is started and when electronic reverse (PERC) is used.

12-Volt RCA Power Sources

Some rider accessories require the use of an RCA power adapter. If your model is not equipped with an RCA power plug on the handlebar cover, an accessory 12-volt RCA adapter or RCA power plug can be purchased from your POLARIS dealer.

12-Volt RCA Adapter

The RCA adapter can be used if your model is equipped with the 12-volt DC power receptacle. Plug the adapter into the receptacle to convert it to a 12-volt RCA power outlet.

12-Volt RCA Power Plug

The RCA power plug (with cover) mounts to the handlebar cover and is plugged into the main vehicle wire harness. Installation instructions are provided with the accessory. This power point is powered by the load shed relay and is not fuse protected. POLARIS recommends using this power point for electric helmet shields.

Adjustable Headlight

NOTE
The image below is for reference only. Your model may differ slightly.
Image
The headlight can be adjusted for vertical aim using the following procedure.
  1. In a well-ventilated area, position the snowmobile on a level surface with the headlight approximately 25 feet (7.6 m) from a wall .
  2. Place the rider or the approximate weight of the rider on the seat or tunnel floorboards.
  3. Measure the distance from the floor to the center of the headlight and make a mark on the wall at the same height.
  4. Start the engine. Move the headlight switch to high beam.
  5. Observe the headlight aim on the wall. The most intense part of the headlight beam should be two inches (5 cm) below the mark on the wall.
  6. If adjustment is necessary, access the headlight adjuster knob through the left side panel. Turn the adjuster knob clockwise to lower the beam. Turn the adjuster counter-clockwise to raise the beam.

Spare Belt Holder / Tools

A driven clutch L-wrench and a spare belt container / tool kit are provided with the snowmobile. The spare belt holder has provisions for two spark plugs and is secured to the front bumper with the spark plug / Torx screw tool. Open the left side panel to access the tools.
NOTE
The spare belt and spark plugs are not included with the vehicle from the factory.


The L-wrench is used to open and close the driven clutch when working with the drive belt. The L-wrench, when properly engaged in the bracket, secures the fender to the console. To retrieve the L-wrench, rotate it counterclockwise and slide it upward from the bracket. When it’s not in use, return the L-wrench to the bracket and rotate it clockwise.

  3. Slide the spare belt holder outward to release it from the mount on the footrest.
    NOTE

  4. Lift upward and remove the spare belt holder.
  5. Reinstall the drive belt into the spare belt holder
  6. Install and align spare belt holder mounting points.
  7. Slide the spare belt holder inward to secure it to the mount on the footrest.
  8. Rotate the 1/4 turn fastener to secure the spare belt holder.

Rail Scratchers

Some models are equipped with rail scratchers to help prevent overheating when riding on ice or hard-packed snow.
NOTICE
Do not install accessory bogie wheels on the inside of the rail beams if your model is equipped with a remote reservoir rear track shock or damage will occur. The rail scratchers must be removed as they interfere with the accessory bogie wheels.

Detonation Elimination Technology (DET)

When DET senses and takes action to reduce detonation, the driver may notice a drop in engine RPM and/or reduced performance. The ECU will illuminate the check engine LED and display “DETONATION” on the LCD screen whenever the DET system is active.
If the ECU determines the detonation cannot be controlled by normal means, and further operation may cause engine damage, the check engine LED will flash, the instrument clusters will display “DETONATION” and the ECU will either limit the maximum engine speed or turn off the engine.
If the ECU limits RPM, the limit will remain active until the driver stops and restarts the engine.

DETONATION PROTECTION MODES

Check Engine LED/Gauge Display

Protection Mode

800 Models

LED illuminated / “DETONATION” displayed

Slight drop in engine RPM/power

LED flashing / “DETONATION” displayed

Exhaust valves close to reduce engine RPM/power. Restart engine to reset.

The most likely causes of severe detonation are outlined in the troubleshooting table on Troubleshooting (DET).
NOTE
The PIDD alert indicates which cylinder is experiencing detonation

Oil Pump Failure Protection (if equipped)

If the ECU determines there is a problem with the electronic oil pump control circuit, the engine management system will limit engine speed to approximately 4000 RPM and illuminate the check engine indicator light on the instrument cluster or PIDD.

Extended Idle Engine Shutoff

This engine feature causes the ECU to shut down the engine when engine temperature reaches 120° F (50° C) and there is no throttle lever input for five minutes.
NOTE
If equipped with an PIDD, the gauge will remain on because the key is in the ON position.

Security System (Ignition Lock System)

Your snowmobile has an optional security function that can be activated by an authorized POLARIS dealer. If you have this feature activated, you can lock the ignition to prevent unauthorized use when leaving the snowmobile unattended. A locked system will limit engine speed to 3000 RPM, which prevents clutch engagement, and the snowmobile will not move when throttle is applied.
If your model is equipped with the POLARIS Interactive Digital Display (PIDD), please see the PIDD Owner’s Manual provided with your snowmobile.
