CLEANING AND STORAGE
STORAGE TIPS
NOTICE
Starting the engine during the storage period will disturb the protective film
created by fogging and damage could occur. Never start the engine during the
storage period.
CLEAN THE EXTERIOR
Make any necessary repairs and clean the vehicle as recommended. See the
Washing the Vehicle section.
STABILIZE THE FUEL
1. Fill the fuel tank.
2. Add POLARIS Carbon Clean Fuel Treatment or POLARIS Fuel Stabilizer or
equivalent fuel treatments or stabilizers. Follow the instructions on the
container for the recommended amount. Carbon Clean removes water from
fuel systems, stabilizes fuel and removes carbon deposits from pistons,
rings, valves and exhaust systems.
3. Allow the engine to run for 15-20 minutes to allow the stabilizer to disperse
through the entire fuel delivery system.
