Cooling System
Coolant High Temperature Indicator Light
The high temperature indicator light will illuminate when engine cool-
ant temperature becomes too hot for safe continued operation of the
engine. If you must drive your machine after the high temperature indi-
cator light has come on, drive slowly and stop frequently to allow the
engine to cool down. Driving in deep snow will also help cool the
engine. See your dealer for service.
Add coolant if the level is low. Engine performance will be reduced if
you continue operating when the high temperature light is on.
Flushing the Cooling System
To ensure that the coolant maintains its ability to protect the engine, the
system should be completely drained every two years and a fresh mix-
ture of antifreeze and distilled water should be added. Have your Polaris
dealer perform this service.
