Exported Vehicles

EXCEPT WHERE SPECIFICALLY REQUIRED BY LAW, THERE IS NO WAR-
RANTY OR SERVICE BULLETIN COVERAGE ON THIS VEHICLE IF IT IS SOLD 
OUTSIDE THE COUNTRY OF THE SELLING DEALER’S AUTHORIZED LOCA-
TION.
This policy does not apply to vehicles that have received authorization for export from 
POLARIS Industries. Dealers may not give authorization for export. You should consult 
an authorized dealer to determine this vehicle’s warranty or service bulletin coverage if 
you have any questions.

sonnel on assignment outside the country of the selling dealer’s authorized location.
This policy does not apply to Safety Bulletins.

How to Get Service

In the Country where your vehicle was purchased:
Warranty or Service Bulletin repairs must be done by an authorized POLARIS dealer. If 
you move or are traveling within the country where your vehicle was purchased, War-
ranty or Service Bulletin repairs may be requested from any authorized POLARIS dealer 
who sells the same line as your vehicle.
Outside the Country where your vehicle was purchased:
If you are traveling temporarily outside the country where your vehicle was purchased, 
you should take your vehicle to an authorized POLARIS dealer. You must show the 
dealer photo identification from the country of the selling dealer’s authorized location as 
proof of residence. Upon residence verification, the servicing dealer will be authorized 
to perform the warranty repair.
If You Move:
If you move to another country, be sure to contact POLARIS Customer Assistance and 
the customs department of the destination country before you move. Vehicles importa-
tion rules vary considerably from country to country. You may be required to present 
documentation of your move to POLARIS Industries in order to continue your warranty 
coverage. You may also be required to obtain documentation from POLARIS Industries 
in order to register your vehicle in your new country. You should warranty register your 
vehicle at a local POLARIS dealer in your new country immediately after you move to 
continue your warranty coverage and to ensure that you receive safety information and 
notices regarding your vehicle.
If Purchased From A Private Party:
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. You 
must nonetheless warranty register your vehicle under your name and address with a 
local POLARIS dealer in your country to ensure that you receive safety information and 
notices regarding your vehicle.

Notice

If your vehicle is registered outside of the country where it was purchased, and you have 
not followed the procedure set out above, your vehicle will no longer be eligible for war-
ranty or service bulletin coverage of any kind, other than safety bulletins. (Vehicles reg-
istered to Government officials or military personnel on assignment outside of the 
country where the vehicle was purchased will continue to be covered by the basic war-
ranty.)
For questions call POLARIS Customer Assistance (see page 150).

ranty for your vehicle. POLARIS Industries Inc. warrants that at the time it is first pur-

ranty is the responsibility of the vehicle owner. This emissions limited warranty does not

WARRANTY

U.S.A. EPA Emissions Limited Warranty

The exclusive remedy for breach of this limited warranty shall be, at the exclusive 
option of POLARIS, repair or replacement of any defective materials, components or 
products. THE REMEDIES SET FORTH IN THIS LIMITED WARRANTY ARE THE 
ONLY REMEDIES AVAILABLE TO ANY PERSON FOR BREACH OF THIS WAR-
RANTY. POLARIS SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY TO ANY PERSON FOR INCI-
DENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR SPECIAL DAMAGES OF ANY 
DESCRIPTION,WHETHER ARISING OUT OF EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WAR-
RANTY 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 PUR-
POSE.

ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY 
IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PAR-
TICULAR PURPOSE) ARE LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE WARRANTY 
PERIOD DESCRIBED HEREIN. POLARIS DISCLAIMS ALL EXPRESS WARRAN-
TIES NOT STATED IN THIS WARRANTY. Some states do not allow limitations on 
how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply if it is incon-
sistent with the controlling state law.

This limited warranty excludes failures not caused by a defect in material or workman-
ship.This limited warranty does not cover damage due to accidents, abuse or improper 
handling, maintenance or use. This limited warranty also does not cover any engine that 
has been structurally altered, or when the vehicle has been used in racing competition. 
This limited warranty also does not cover physical damage, corrosion or defects caused 
by fire, explosions or other similar causes beyond the control of POLARIS.

Owners are responsible for performing the scheduled maintenance identified in the 
owner's manual. POLARIS may deny warranty claims for failures that have been caused 
by the owner’s or operator’s improper maintenance or use, by accidents for which 
POLARIS has no responsibility, or by acts of God.

Any qualified repair shop or person may maintain, replace, or repair the emission con-
trol devices or systems on your vehicle. POLARIS recommends that you contact an 
authorized POLARIS dealer to perform any service that may be necessary for your vehi-
cle. POLARIS also recommends that you use only Pure POLARIS parts. It is a potential 
violation of the Clean Air Act if a part supplied by an aftermarket parts manufacturer 
reduces the effectiveness of the vehicle's emission controls. Tampering with emission 
controls is prohibited by federal law.
If you have any questions regarding your warranty rights and responsibilities, please 
contact the POLARIS Warranty Department at 1-888-704-5290.
