OIL CHANGE
1. Position the vehicle on a level surface.
2. Place a drain pan under the drain hole.

4. Clean and reinstall the drain plug with a new sealing washer. Torque to
specification.
5. Remove the fill plug. Add the proper amount of the recommended oil. Do not
overfill.
6. Reinstall the fill plug. Torque to specification.

8. Dispose of used oil properly.
COOLING SYSTEM
The engine coolant level is controlled, or maintained, by the recovery system.
The recovery system components are the recovery bottle, the radiator filler neck,
the radiator pressure cap and the connecting hose.
As coolant operating temperature increases, the expanding (heated) excess
coolant is forced out of the engine, past the pressure cap, and into the recovery
bottle. As engine coolant temperature decreases the contracting (cooled)
coolant is drawn back up from the bottle, past the pressure cap, and into the
radiator.
Some coolant level drop on new vehicles is normal as the system is purging
itself of trapped air. Check the coolant level and maintain as recommended by
adding coolant to the recovery bottle.
POLARIS recommends the use of POLARIS Antifreeze 50/50 Premix. This
antifreeze is already premixed and ready to use. Do not dilute with water. See
the Polaris Products section for the part numbers.
RECOVERY BOTTLE COOLANT
The recovery bottle
q
is located on the
left side of the vehicle.
1. Remove the left side panel. See the
Side Panel Removal section.
2. Maintain the coolant level between
the minimum and maximum marks
on the bottle (when the fluid is cool).
3. Add coolant as needed.
