VEHICLE IMMERSION
If your vehicle becomes immersed, major engine damage can result if the
machine is not thoroughly inspected. Take the vehicle in for service before
starting the engine. Your POLARIS dealer can provide this service.
If it's impossible to take your ATV to a dealer before starting it, follow the steps
outlined below.
1. Move the ATV to dry land or at the very least, to water below the footrests.
2. Check the air box. If water is present, dry the air box and replace the filter
with a new filter. If equipped, remove the air box drain plug to drain water.
Reinstall the drain plug.
CAUTION
Serious damage could occur if the air box drain plug is not reinstalled properly.
3. Remove the spark plugs.
4. Turn the engine over several times using the electric start.
5. Dry the spark plugs. Reinstall the plugs or install new plugs.
6. Attempt to start the engine. If necessary, repeat the drying procedure.
