40 Know Y our A TV PA R E N T S : POLARIS Y outh A TVs are equipped with a speed control system to allow adults to limit the speed of the vehicle for the rider's skill and experi ence. More information on speed limiting functions can be found beginni ng on page 126.
41 Know Y our A TV Before you have an adult start the engine for you for the first time, let's l earn about the con- trols on your new A TV . 1. Engine S top Switch - When the engine is running, push this button down to shut the engine off quickly .
42 Know Y our A TV 4. Kick-S tart Lever - If your battery is too weak to start your A TV , you can push down on the kick-start lever with your foot to start the engine. Have an adult show you how it works. Read more about how to use the kick-start on page 68.
43 Know Y our A TV 6. Gas Cap - The gas cap has to be taken off when an adult puts gas in your A TV . Never take the gas cap of f. Always make sure it's tightly closed. Always have an adult put gas in your A TV . Never try to do it yourself. 7. Seat Latch - The seat latch is under the left edge of the seat.
44 Know Y our A TV 8. Brake Levers - Squeeze the brake levers toward the handlebar to slow down or stop the A TV . The left lever controls the rear brake.
45 Know Y our A TV 9. Ignition Switch - The ignition switch key must be turned on before pushing the starter button. Y o u can also use this key to turn off the engine. 10.

46 Know Y our A TV Let's review th e three ways to stop th e engine of your A TV : 1. Push the engine stop switch down. 2. Pull the tether strap off the A TV .
47 Pre-Ride Check W e're almost ready to have an adult start your A TV . But before the A TV is started for the first time, you must do a Pre-Ride Check. In fact, every time you want to ride you must have an adult help you check some things on your A TV before starting it.
48 Pre-Ride Check 2. Make sure the brake s don't stick. Check the brake levers by squeezing them toward the handlebar and then letting go. They should come right back to where they were before you squeezed. If they go back slowly or stay close to the handlebar , your A TV has sticky brakes.
49 Pre-Ride Check 4. If you used the storage area under the seat, make sure the seat is locked in place. 5. Have an adult check the engine oil level when the engine is cold. The engine is very hot after it has been running and it can burn your skin if you touch it.
