Maintenance

CVT Drying

There may be some instances when water is accidently ingested into the CVT system. Use

the following instructions to dry it out before operating. The drain plug is located on the bot-

tom of the CVT cover.
1. Remove the drain plug. Allow the water to drain. Reinstall the drain plug.
2. Start the engine. Apply varying throttle for 10-15 seconds to expel the moisture and air-

dry the belt and clutches. Do not hold the throttle wide open for more than 10 seconds.

3. Allow the engine RPM to settle to idle speed.
4. Test for belt slippage. If the belt slips, repeat the process.
5. Take the vehicle to your dealer for service as soon as possible.

CAUTION

Exposure to salt water will cause corrosion to metal components. If your vehicle is operated in salt

water areas, rinse it off frequently with fresh water.
