MAINTENANCE

Cleaning and Storage

Storage Tips

NOTICE: Starting the engine during the storage period will disturb the

protective film created by fogging and damage could occur. Never
start the engine during the storage period.

Clean the Exterior

Make any necessary repairs and clean the vehicle as recommended. See
page 127.

Stabilize the Fuel

1. Fill the fuel tank.

2. Add POLARIS Carbon Clean Fuel Treatment or POLARIS Fuel

Stabilizer or equivalent fuel treatments or stabilizers. Follow the
instructions on the container for the recommended amount. Carbon
Clean removes water from fuel systems, stabilizes fuel and removes
carbon deposits from pistons, rings, valves and exhaust systems.

3. Allow the engine to run for 15-20 minutes to allow the stabilizer to

disperse through the entire fuel delivery system.

Oil and Filter

Change the oil and filter. See page 92.

Air Filter / Air Box

Replace the air filter. See page 108. Clean the air box.

Fluid Levels

Inspect the fluid levels. Add or change fluids as recommended in the
Periodic Maintenance Chart beginning on page 81.
• Demand drive fluid (front gearcase)
• Rear gearcase fluid (if equipped)
• Transmission fluid
• Brake fluid (change every two years and any time the fluid looks dark

or contaminated)

• Coolant (test strength/fill)
