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

page 104.
Stabilize the Fuel
1. Fill the fuel tank.
2. Add Polaris Carbon Clean Fuel Treatment or Polaris Fuel Stabilizer.

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 page 70.
Air Filter / Air Box
1. Inspect and clean or replace the pre-cleaner and air filter. See page

85.

2. Clean the air box.
3. Drain the sediment tube.
Inspect and Lubricate
Inspect all cables and lubricate all areas of the vehicle as recommended

in the Periodic Maintenance Chart beginning on page 62.
