In the United States, the 3-wheel SLINGSHOT vehicle is an on-road vehicle in the motorcycle class.

The SLINGSHOT vehicle handles differently than 2-wheel motorcycles, other 3-wheel vehicles and 4-wheel vehicles. The following information will help you understand the features and characteristics that make operation and handling of the SLINGSHOT vehicle different from the operation and handling of other on-road vehicles.

How does a SLINGSHOT differ from a 2-wheel motorcycle?

• Low center of gravity

• Steering wheel

• Foot controls (brake, accelerator)

• Clutch pedal (for manual transmission vehicles)

• Front suspension and steering

• Side-by-side operator and passenger seats

• Seat belts for both riders

• Lighting

• One rear drive wheel and two front wheels

The unique handling characteristics of the SLINGSHOT include:

• More stability in turns

• Flat cornering

• Turns in direction of wheel

• Quick response to steering changes

• Like all on-road vehicles, the SLINGSHOT can hydroplane (lose traction) when encountering a layer of water on the driving surface. Every vehicle has a unique hydroplane speed and response, driven by vehicle weight, tire configuration and tire condition. The SLINGSHOT may hydroplane at lower speeds and react differently to hydroplaning than most motorcycles and cars.

The break-in period for your vehicle is the first 500 miles (800 km) of operation. During this break-in period, critical engine parts require special wear-in procedures so they seat and mate properly. Read, understand and follow all break-in procedures to ensure the long-term performance and durability of your engine.

Review the fuel warnings. See Fuel and Exhaust Safety. Use only the recommended fuel.

1. Insert the fuel nozzle into the fuel tank filler neck. Do not leave the nozzle unattended while fueling.

8. With the brake applied, allow the engine to idle. Idle speed will gradually slow to normal as the engine warms to operating temperature.

The SLINGSHOT vehicle is equipped with a 5-speed transmission. Neutral is located between gears. When the shift lever is in neutral, it should move freely from left to right.

1. Start the engine. See the Starting the Engine section for details.

2. With the engine at idle speed and the clutch disengaged (pedal depressed), apply the brakes.

3. Move the shift lever into first gear.

4. Release the brake pedal.

5. In one smooth motion, simultaneously release the clutch pedal while slowly depressing the throttle pedal. As the clutch begins to engage, the vehicle will move forward.

6. To shift to a higher gear, accelerate smoothly to the recommended shift point. See the Recommended Shift Points section for details. Perform the following actions quickly and precisely:

   1. Simultaneously release the throttle pedal completely while disengaging the clutch (depressing the clutch pedal).

   2. Move the shift lever to the next gear.

   3. Simultaneously release the clutch pedal while depressing the throttle pedal.

   NOTE

   Within the recommended speed ranges (see the Recommended Shift Points section for details), you can downshift to slow the vehicle or to increase power. You may want to downshift when climbing a hill or passing. Downshifting also helps to decrease speed when combined with releasing the throttle pedal.

7. To shift to a lower gear (downshift), reduce speed to the recommended shift point. See the Recommended Shift Points section for details. Perform the following actions quickly and precisely:

   1. Simultaneously release the throttle pedal completely while disengaging the clutch (depressing the clutch pedal).

   2. Move the shift lever to the next lower gear.

   3. Simultaneously release the clutch pedal while depressing the throttle pedal.

• Reduce speed before downshifting. Always downshift within the recommended shift points.

• Use extreme caution when downshifting on wet, slippery or other low traction surfaces. Release the clutch pedal very gradually in these conditions.

Accelerate by depressing the throttle pedal. For even acceleration, depress the throttle pedal smoothly. When you reach the recommended speed for upshifting, shift up one gear.

Always allow a sufficient stopping distance so that brakes can be applied gradually. Practice braking in a safe area to become familiar with the feel of the SLINGSHOT brakes before driving in traffic.

1. To slow the vehicle, release the throttle pedal and depress the brake pedal evenly and gradually.

2. As the vehicle slows, disengage the clutch, or downshift each time vehicle speed reaches a downshift point. If braking to a complete stop, disengage the clutch when the vehicle is nearly stopped.

3. After braking to a complete stop, shift to neutral and release the clutch pedal to reduce clutch bearing wear. If stopping in traffic, keep your foot on the brake pedal so other drivers can see your vehicle’s brake lights.

Bring the vehicle to a complete stop before stopping the engine.

1. Brake to a complete stop. When nearly stopped, disengage the clutch.

   NOTE

   As the vehicle slows, disengage the clutch, or downshift each time vehicle speed reaches a downshift point.

2. When fully stopped, move the ignition switch to the OFF position.

3. Remove the ignition key.

4. Engage the park brake.

Follow these precautions when operating in reverse:

1. Brake to a complete stop. When nearly stopped, disengage the clutch.

2. When fully stopped, shift to neutral.

3. Always check for obstacles or people behind the vehicle, and always inspect left and right fields of vision before operating in reverse.

4. When it’s safe to proceed, shift into reverse gear. If your vehicle is equipped with a back-up camera, view the display screen for additional assistance as needed while operating in reverse. See the Back-Up Camera section for details.

5. Release the brake pedal.

6. In one smooth motion, simultaneously release the clutch pedal while slowly depressing the throttle pedal. As the clutch begins to engage, the vehicle will move rearward.

   NOTICE

   The reverse speed limit feature limits reverse operation to 10 MPH (16 km/h). Do not attempt to exceed this speed. If the engine seems to “cut out”, vehicle speed is exceeding the limit. Reduce throttle and slow down. Exceeding the limit could result in vehicle instability.

7. Never apply hard throttle while operating in reverse.

8. Always observe your path of travel and be alert to traffic, pedestrians and obstacles at all sides of the vehicle while operating in reverse.

The cruise control switches are located on the turn signal lever. Make sure you read this section and understand how to safely operate this feature before using the cruise control.

Proper maintenance assures the highest level of safety, durability and dependability for your SLINGSHOT vehicle.

Owners are responsible for performing the scheduled maintenance identified in this owner’s manual.

• Your authorized SLINGSHOT dealer can perform the break-in maintenance procedures when the vehicle’s odometer registers 500 miles (800 km).

• See your dealer or perform the recommended periodic maintenance at the intervals specified in the Periodic Maintenance Chart beginning on Periodic Maintenance.

Any qualified repair shop or person may maintain, replace, or repair the emission control devices or systems on your vehicle. An authorized POLARIS dealer can perform any service that may be necessary for your vehicle. POLARIS also recommends POLARIS parts for emissions related service. However, equivalent parts may be used for such service. 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.

Your dealer can perform the break-in maintenance procedures when the vehicle’s odometer registers 500 miles (800 km). Performing the break-in maintenance will help ensure optimum engine performance for the entire service life of the engine. Your dealer can change engine oil, inspect all fluids and serviceable components, ensure that all fasteners are tightened and make other adjustments as needed.

For major repair information, refer to the SLINGSHOT Service Manual. Major repairs typically require technical skills and specially designed tools. Emission system service requires special tools and training and should be performed by your dealer.

• Improperly installed or adjusted components can result in a system failure. If you do not have the time, tools and expertise necessary to complete a procedure properly, please see your dealer or another qualified person for service.

• Review the safety-related maintenance information on Safety Maintenance.

• Before beginning any maintenance procedure, read the instructions for the entire procedure.

• Always position the vehicle on a firm level surface before performing service.

This section provides tips on the very best way to clean, polish and preserve every surface of your beautiful new SLINGSHOT vehicle. We recommend the use of Polaris Engineered Vehicle Care cleaning and polishing products to offer the best care for your vehicle. Polaris Engineering Vehicle Care can be found online at https://www.polaris.com/en-us/ or at your Polaris SLINGSHOT Dealer. After cleaning the vehicle, inspect for damage to the painted surfaces. Repair chips or scratches promptly by applying touch-up paint to prevent corrosion.

For more information, or for answers to your cleaning and detailing questions, please see your SLINGSHOT dealer.

1. Do not use abrasive cleaners.

2. Rinse off as much dirt and debris as possible with water running at low pressure. Use as little water as possible when washing near the air intake or the exhaust pipe openings. Dry these components thoroughly before using the vehicle.

3. Make sure the brakes are functioning properly before riding.

If you will not operate the vehicle for 60 days or longer, such as during the winter, storing it properly will help prevent damage to the fuel system, electrical system, engine, suspensions, tires and body. During extended storage periods, maintain tire pressure and battery voltage at the recommended levels.

1. Choose a dry, well-ventilated storage location away from direct sunlight, preferably a garage or similar structure. The structure should have a firm, flat, clean surface free of oil and gasoline. The structure should have a relatively constant and moderate temperature.

2. Proper storage starts with cleaning, washing and waxing the hood, chassis, upholstery and plastic parts. Be sure that corrosive salt and acids are removed from surfaces before beginning preservation with waxes and rust inhibitors (grease, oil or paint). Clean and touch up with paint any rusted or previously painted surfaces.

3. Apply a light coat of oil or grease to all bushings, spindle shafts and tie rod ends.

4. Change the engine oil. Start the engine and allow it to idle just long enough to circulate the new oil throughout the engine.

5. Fog the engine using the recommended aerosol fogging oil available from your dealer. Follow the instructions on the container.

6. Treat the fuel system with a fuel stabilizer. If a fuel stabilizer is not used, the fuel tank, fuel lines and fuel rail should be completely drained of gasoline.

7. Remove the spark plugs. Spray a light amount of engine fogging oil into each cylinder to prevent rust. Reinstall the plugs.

8. Make sure the coolant quality and level in the system is adequate for freeze protection during storage.

9. Apply a metal protectant to shock absorber shafts or any exposed metal to prevent corrosion.

10. Separate electrical connector blocks and clean corrosive build-up from connectors. Replace worn or frayed electrical wire and connectors.

11. Prepare the battery for storage.

12. Verify that tire pressure is at specification.

13. Cover intake and exhaust openings to prevent small animals from entering.

14. Elevate the vehicle using appropriate jack stands. Remove the wheels to prevent flat spots on the tires.

15. Do not engage the park brake. If engaged, the brake pads may stick to the discs.

16. Cover the vehicle with a fabric cover. Do not use plastic or vinyl covers, which trap moisture and encourage rust and corrosion.

1. Remove the battery.

2. Clean the battery terminals first with a wire brush to remove any loose deposits.

3. Wash the posts and the ends of the battery cables with a solution of one part baking soda to 16 parts water. Rinse with clean water and wipe dry.

4. Apply a thin film of dielectric grease to the posts and cable connectors.

5. Clean the outside of the battery with a solution of mild detergent and warm water.

6. Store the battery in a dry area with a temperature of 32° to 90° F (0° to 32° C).

7. While in storage, fully charge the battery once a month.

1. Remove the fabric cover.

2. Remove intake and exhaust opening covers (if covered for storage).

3. Install the tires. Lower the vehicle and remove the jack stands.

4. Verify that tire pressure is at specification. Refer to safety labels on the vehicle or to the Specifications chapter.

5. Install the battery and perform an electrical inspection.

6. Inspect the spark plugs. Install new spark plugs if necessary.

7. If the vehicle was stored in an area subject to wide swings in temperature and humidity (such as outdoors), change the engine oil before starting the engine.

   NOTICE

   During storage, temperature and humidity changes can cause condensation to form in the crankcase and mix with engine oil. Running the engine with oil that contains condensation can cause engine damage.

8. Inspect the storage area for signs of fluid leaks. Identify and perform service to any leaking components.

9. Wash and polish the vehicle. Wax, polish or apply protectant to appropriate components.

10. Perform the pre-ride inspections. See the Pre-Ride Inspections chapter for details.

11. Check any fluid levels not included in the pre-ride inspection.
