Drying the CVT system after submersion
If water has been ingested into the CVT housing, the drive belt will likely slip and poor performance will
result. To expel water and dry the CVT housing:
•
Drain the CVT housing.
•
Place the vehicle in neutral, and raise the engine rpm for several minutes to dry the CVT components.
•
Release the throttle and shift into low gear, then test the performance of the vehicle.
•
Repeat as necessary until you are satisfied all the water has been expelled. Contact your dealer if
vehicle performance issues continue.
NOTE
After running the vehicle in water, it is critical to have the vehicle serviced as outlined in the maintenance
schedule. The following areas need special attention: engine oil, front and rear gear cases and all grease
locations. If your vehicle becomes immersed, and it's impossible to take it to your dealer before starting it,
follow the steps described in this manual to remove water from the air box and engine.
CAUTION
Major engine damage can result if the vehicle is not thoroughly inspected after operation in water. If water
has been ingested into the CVT housing, follow the procedure in this manual for drying out the CVT clutch
system. Have the vehicle serviced by your dealer promptly if your vehicle becomes immersed or stalls in
water that exceeds the footrest level. It is important to contact your dealer for service before starting the
engine, as water may have been ingested in the air box and engine.
