Washing the Vehicle
Keeping your POLARIS vehicle
clean will not only improve its
appearance but it can also extend
the life of various components.
NOTICE:
Water in the PVT system
could cause the drive belt to
become wet and slip in the
clutches. Always avoid
spraying water into the
snorkels.
High water pressure may
damage the radiator fins and
impair the radiator’s
effectiveness. High pressure
may also damage other
vehicle components.
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
garden 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.
