INTRODUCTION
Preservation of the Environment
POLARIS is committed to supporting an environmental education cam-
paign. We encourage state and provincial governments across the snow-
belt to adopt rigorous safety training programs that encourage protection
of our environment, including wildlife and vegetation.
Snowmobile clubs and other organizations are working together to pro-
tect our environment. Please support their efforts and operate your
snowmobile with consideration for the protection and preservation of
our environment.
Noise Level
One of the most publicized issues about snowmobiles is noise. The
Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), the standard-setting body for
snowmobile development, recommends that snowmobiles conform to
prescribed sound levels.
POLARIS snowmobiles are engineered to conform to these SAE stan-
dards. Our muffler systems are designed to reduce noise levels and must
not be altered or removed. The sound of your snowmobile may not be
welcome to non-snowmobilers, so you have a responsibility to operate
your snowmobile with concern for others. We do our part by manufac-
turing quieter machines; we ask your help to further reduce the impact
of noise by operating your snowmobile safely and responsibly.
Air Pollution
POLARIS engineers continuously investigate ways to reduce emission
levels of two-stroke engines. We expect our efforts to lead to the reduc-
tion of potential air pollution.
In addition to our technological research, we encourage government
agencies, manufacturers, distributors, dealers, ecologists, and other
interested parties to work together to develop data on environmental
topics.
