SUPERVISION
OVERVIEW
When you allow others to drive your UXV500iG you become re-
sponsible for their safety and their actions. The driving ability of
your guests, their awareness of proper UTV operation, the terrain,
and the condition of your UTV must be factored into your decision
to allow others to operate your UTV. Additionally, you can be legally
responsible for the actions your guests may take while driving your
UTV.
TAKING RESPONSIBILITY
The final letter in the "PASS" acronym stands for SUPERVISION.
As outlined in this manual, there are a number of elements for en-
joyable and safe UTV driving and ownership. As the owner of a
UTV, you are directly responsible to supervise its use.
INEXPERIENCED/UNTRAINED RIDERS
Never let anyone who has not been educated in proper and safe
UTV operation to drive your UXV500iG. Even guests who own an
UTV or who have prior driving experience may not have the foun-
dation of a formal training course that would have educated them
about safe UTV operation. As the vehicle owner, it is your respon-
sibility to keep uneducated guests (especially children or those who
lack an automobile operator’s license) out of your UTV.
EXPERIENCED/TRAINED DRIVERS
When anyone borrows your UTV, you become responsible to
supervise them and control their actions. Before a guest drives
your UXV500iG, have them take a UTV training course and
have them read this Owner's Manual. As the owner of the UTV,
you are responsible for their training.
Not every UTV operates in the same way or has the same
handling characteristics that your vehicle possesses. The seat-
ing position may be different, the controls may differ, and the
power delivery will vary from brand and model of UTV. So re-
gardless of how much experience your guests may have with
UTV’s in general, they don't have experience with your ve-
hicle. Spend time with your guests to make sure they are fa-
miliar and comfortable with the operation of your UTV before
you let them use it.
