POLISHING TIPS
• Avoid the use of automotive products, some of which can scratch the finish of
your vehicle.
• 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.
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.
OIL AND FILTER
Change the oil and filter. See the Engine Oil section.
AIR FILTER / AIR BOX
Replace the air filter. See Maintenance Chapter. Clean the air box.
FLUID LEVELS
Inspect the fluid levels. Add or change fluids as recommended in the Periodic
