Washing the Vehicle
Keeping your POLARIS vehicle
clean will not only improve its
appearance but it can also extend the
life of various components.
Before washing the vehicle, locate
the PVT outlet duct under the right
rear wheel well. Avoid spraying
water directly toward the duct when
washing the vehicle from the rear.
NOTICE: Water in the PVT system
could cause the drive belt to
become wet and slip in the clutches. Always avoid spraying water
directly toward the PVT outlet duct when washing the vehicle from
the rear.
High water pressure may damage components. POLARIS
recommends washing the vehicle by hand or with a garden hose,
using mild soap.
Certain products, including insect repellents and chemicals, will
damage plastic surfaces. Do not allow these types of products to
contact the vehicle.
The best and safest way to clean your POLARIS vehicle is with a gar-
den hose and a pail of mild soap and water.
1. Use a professional-type washing cloth, cleaning the upper body first
and the lower parts last.
2. Rinse with clean water frequently.
3. Dry surfaces with a chamois to prevent water spots.
Washing Tips
• Avoid the use of harsh cleaners, which can scratch the finish.
• Do not use a power washer to clean the vehicle.
• Do not use medium to heavy duty compounds on the finish.
• Always use clean cloths and pads for cleaning and polishing. Old or
reused cloths and pads may contain dirt particles that will scratch the
finish.
