OPERATION

Cold Weather Operation

Internal engine condensation increases as outside temperatures

decrease. If the vehicle is used year-round, check the oil level fre-

quently. A rising oil level could indicate condensation in the bottom of

the oil tank, which can lead to engine damage. Any condensation must

be drained.
Always operate the engine long enough to reach operating temperature,

which reduces condensation. See your Polaris dealer for engine heater

kits, which provide quicker warm-ups and easier starting in cold

weather.
