MAINTENANCE Cooling System Radiator Coolant To ensure that the coolant maintains its ability to protect the engine, we recommend that the system be completely drained every five (5) years and fresh Antifreeze 50/50 Premix added. Any time the cooling system has been drained for maintenance or repair, replace the coolant with fresh Antifreeze 50/50 Premix. 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 39. 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. Your POLARIS dealer can provide the correct replacement part. 5. Close and secure the front box and cover.

MAINTENANCE
Cooling System
Radiator Coolant
To ensure that the coolant maintains its ability to protect the engine, we
recommend that the system be completely drained every five (5) years
and fresh Antifreeze 50/50 Premix added.
Any time the cooling system has been drained for maintenance or repair,
replace the coolant with fresh Antifreeze 50/50 Premix. 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 39.
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.
Your POLARIS dealer can
provide the correct replacement
part.
5.
Close and secure the front box
and cover.
