Radiator And Cooling Fan - Polaris Ranger 4X4 Owner's Manual

Cooling System

Radiator and Cooling Fan

Always check and clean the screen and radiator fins at the intervals out-
lined in the Periodic Maintenance Chart beginning on page 50. Do not
obstruct or deflect air flow through the radiator by installing unautho-
rized accessories in front of the radiator or behind the cooling fan. Inter-
ference with the radiator air flow can lead to overheating and
consequent engine damage.
NOTICE: Washing the vehicle with a high-pressure hose could damage the
radiator fins and impair the radiator's effectiveness. Using a high-
pressure system is not recommended.
Overflow Bottle Coolant Level
Always check and change the coolant at the intervals outlined in the
Periodic Maintenance Chart beginning on page 50. Maintain the coolant
level between the minimum and maximum marks on the bottle (when
the fluid is cool).
The overflow bottle is located in front of the right front wheel.
1. Position the vehicle on a level surface.
2. View the coolant level in the overflow bottle.
3. If the coolant level is below the
safe operating range, lift the
hood and locate the overflow
bottle lid. Remove the cap and
use a funnel to add coolant
through the filler opening. Rein-
stall the cap.
Tip: If coolant must be added often, or if
the overflow bottle runs completely
dry, there may be a leak in the sys-
tem. Have the cooling system
inspected by your Polaris dealer.
