MAINTENANCE
CVT air outlet check hose
There is a check hose
4
at the bottom of the CVT cooling outlet
duct, located at the rear of the engine. If dust or water can be
viewed in this hose, empty the hose and clean or drain the CVT
housing. If the vehicle was submerged, contact your local dealer to
check the CVT housing and components thoroughly.
What to do if water collects in the CVT housing
If the vehicle was submerged in water deep enough that water has
entered the CVT housing, remove the drain bolt
5
at the bottom of
the housing to drain the water from the case.
CAUTION
If water drains from the CVT housing after removing the bolt, have
your dealer inspect the vehicle, as water may have affected the
CVT system and other engine parts
Drying a wet CVT system
If the CVT system was submerged and the drive belt is slipping,
any remaining moisture inside the CVT housing after draining can
be expelled by running the engine above 2000 RPM in Park or
Neutral for 30-60 seconds, then testing for proper CVT function in
low gear. Repeat as necessary. If the CVT system continues to slip
or have poor performance, contact your dealer.
