Cooling System
Overflow Bottle Coolant Level
Always check and change the coolant at the intervals outlined in the Periodic Maintenance
Chart beginning on page 63. Maintain the coolant level between the minimum and maximum
marks on the bottle (when the fluid is cool).
1. Position the vehicle on a level
surface.
2. Place the transmission in PARK.
3. Remove the hood. See page 28.
4. View the coolant level in the
overflow bottle.
5. If the coolant level is below the
safe operating range, use a funnel
to add coolant through the filler
opening. Reinstall the cap.
Tip: If coolant must be added often, or if
the overflow bottle runs completely
dry, there may be a leak in the
system. Have the cooling system
inspected by your POLARIS dealer.
Radiator Coolant Level
1. Remove the hood. See page 28.
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.
2. Slowly remove the radiator cap.
3. View the coolant level through the opening.
4. Use a funnel and slowly add coolant as needed.
Tip: This procedure is required only if the cooling system has been drained for maintenance and/or
repair. But if the overflow bottle has run dry, the level in the radiator should also be inspected.
5. Reinstall the pressure cap. Use of a non-standard pressure cap will not allow the
recovery system to function properly. See your dealer for the correct replacement part.
