Rer Button - BOMBARDIER SKI-DOO MX-Z Renegade 600 HO SDI Operator's Manual

5) RER Button

General
When the engine is running, depressing the RER button will com-
mand the engine to reverse crankshaft rotation as driving the snow-
mobile in reverse is achieved by changing the direction of rotation of
the engine, not by shifting the chaincase in reverse gear.
When depressing the RER button, the MPEM (Multi-Purpose Elec-
tronic Module) will practically slow down the engine RPM to a stop
and advance the ignition timing to cause crankshaft rotation revers-
ing.
Engine will automatically shift into forward when starting after stop-
ping or stalling.
Shifting procedure will take place only when the engine is running.
If engine is running at a speed above 3800 RPM, the reverse function
of the RER button is cancelled.
It is recommended to warm up the engine to its normal operating
temperature before shifting.
Shifting in Reverse
The shifting to reverse mode on these snowmobiles is done by
the push of the RER button when the engine is running. Wait
until the reverse alarm sounds and the DESS/RER pilot lamp
comes on in the dash before operating throttle to proceed in
reverse. The reverse speed of these snowmobiles is not limit-
ed. Always proceed with caution as fast reverse could result in
loss of vehicle stability. Come to complete stop before de-
pressing RER button. Always remain seated and apply the
brake before shifting. Ensure the path behind is clear of obsta-
cles or bystanders before proceeding.
With the snowmobile completely stopped and engine running at idle,
press and release the RER button.
The DESS TM /RER
sound once every second with a half a second duration when the
snowmobile is engaged in reverse.
Apply throttle slowly and evenly. Allow drive pulley to engage then
accelerate carefully.
Shifting in Forward
With the snowmobile completely stopped and engine running at idle,
press and release the RER button.
