Vehicle Immersion

If your vehicle becomes immersed, major engine damage can result if the machine is not thoroughly inspected. Take the vehicle in for service before starting the engine. Your POLARIS dealer can provide this service.

If it's impossible to take your ATV to a dealer before starting it, follow the steps outlined below.

  1. Move the ATV to dry land or at the very least, to water below the footrests.

  2. Check the air box. If water is present, dry the air box and replace the filter with a new filter. If equipped, remove the air box drain plug to drain water. Reinstall the drain plug. Make sure the E-ring is on the drain plug and reinstall the drain plug.

    NOTICE
    Serious damage could occur if the air box drain plug is not reinstalled and tightened properly.

  3. Remove the spark plugs.

  4. Turn the engine over several times using the electric start.

  5. Dry the spark plugs. Reinstall the plugs or install new plugs.

  6. Attempt to start the engine. If necessary, repeat the drying procedure.

    NOTICE
    Serious damage can occur after immersion if fluids are not changed promptly. Your POLARIS dealer can assist.

  7. Take the vehicle in for service as soon as possible, whether you succeed in starting it or not. Your POLARIS dealer can provide the required service.

  8. If water has been ingested into the PVT, follow the procedure on PVT Drying for drying out the PVT.
