Can-Am Outlander 650 XU Plus 2023 Operator's Guide

To properly break in your Can-Am Outlander 650 XU Plus 2023, it's recommended to operate at varying speeds and avoid full throttle for the first 10 hours of use. This helps ensure that the engine components wear in correctly.
To perform an oil change, first warm up the engine, then turn it off and remove the oil drain plug. Allow the oil to fully drain, replace the drain plug, and then remove and replace the oil filter. Refill with the recommended oil type and check the level.
The Can-Am Outlander 650 XU Plus 2023 is designed to run on regular unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 87 or higher. Avoid using fuels with ethanol content greater than 10%.
If the vehicle won't start, check the battery charge and connections, ensure the fuel is fresh, and inspect the spark plug for wear or damage. If problems persist, consult a professional technician.
Regular maintenance includes oil changes every 50 hours or once a year, checking coolant levels, inspecting brake pads, and lubricating moving parts. Refer to the owner's manual for a detailed schedule.
To adjust the suspension, locate the preload adjuster on each shock absorber. Turn the adjuster clockwise to increase preload for a stiffer ride, or counterclockwise for a softer ride, based on your preference and terrain.
If overheating occurs, stop the vehicle immediately and allow the engine to cool. Check coolant levels and fans for proper operation. If the problem persists, seek professional mechanical assistance.
For winter storage, clean the vehicle thoroughly, stabilize the fuel, disconnect the battery, and store in a dry, covered area. Consider using a breathable cover to protect against dust and moisture.
Common causes of power loss include clogged air filters, dirty fuel injectors, or worn spark plugs. Regular maintenance and inspection can help prevent these issues.
Use a tire pressure gauge to check the tire pressure when the tires are cold. Adjust the pressure to match the specifications in the owner's manual. Properly inflated tires ensure optimal performance and safety.
