Washing the ATV
The best and safest way to clean your Polaris vehicle is with a garden hose and a pail of mild
soap and water.
1. Use a professional-type washing cloth, cleaning the upper body first and the lower parts
last.
2. Rinse with clean water frequently.
3. Dry surfaces with a chamois to prevent water spots.
Washing Tips
• Avoid the use of harsh cleaners, which can scratch the finish.
• Do not use a power washer to clean the vehicle.
• Do not use medium to heavy duty compounds on the finish.
• Always use clean cloths and pads for cleaning and polishing. Old or reused cloths and
pads may contain dirt particles that will scratch the finish.
