MAINTENANCE

Cooling System

Radiator Coolant

To ensure that the coolant maintains its ability to protect the engine,
POLARIS recommends that you drain the system completely every two
years and add a fresh mixture of antifreeze and water.

Replace the coolant any time the cooling system has been drained for
maintenance or repair. If the recovery bottle has run dry, check the level
in the radiator. Add coolant as needed.

CAUTION! Escaping steam can cause burns. Never remove the pressure cap
while the engine is warm or hot. Always allow the engine to cool before
removing the pressure cap.

1. Access the pressure cap under the

front box. See page 36.

2. Remove the pressure cap.

3. Using a funnel, slowly add

coolant through the radiator filler
neck.

4. Reinstall the pressure cap. Use of

a non-standard pressure cap will
not allow the recovery system to
function properly. Contact your
dealer for the correct replacement
part.

5. Close and secure the front box and cover.
