Radiator Coolant Level / Changing Coolant

Always check and change the coolant at the intervals outlined in the Polaris Maintenance Schedule. Maintain the coolant level within 1 in (25.4mm) of the cold mark on the pressure tank (when the fluid is cool).

The changing coolant procedure is required only if the cooling system has been drained for maintenance and/or repair. Ensure vehicle is parked on a level surface before servicing.

  1. Position the vehicle on a level surface.

  2. Place the transmission in PARK.

  3. Remove the drivers side rear panel 1. Pull up on the release tab, then slide the panel to the front of the vehicle. Pull out on the panel to remove.

  4. View the coolant level in the pressure tank 2.

    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.

  5. If the coolant level is below the safe operating range, coolant must be added to the pressure tank.

    NOTICE
    Coolant can only be added through the pressure tank. There is no pressure cap on the radiator.

  6. Use a funnel and slowly add coolant as needed.

  7. Reinstall the pressure cap securely. Use of a non-standard pressure cap will not allow the system to function properly. Your POLARIS dealer, or other qualified person, can provide the correct replacement part.

  8. Reinstall the driver’s side rear panel. Place the panel into the slots on the rear panel, then push forward to lock.

NOTICE
If coolant must be added often, or if the pressure tank runs completely dry, there may be a leak in the system. Your POLARIS dealer, or other qualified person, can inspect the cooling system.
