SAFETY INFORMATION
Braking
Braking performance may vary suddenly under cer-
tain conditions. For example, the level of regenera-
tive braking is continuously adjusted while driving,
which affects overall braking performance. Always
remember that the snowmobile braking distance may
be affected when riding with a passenger and when
loaded with cargo at the rear. Avoid locking the track
since this could lead to a loss of control.
Using studs on the track will give you better braking
capacity on packed snow or ice but will have no
noticeable effect on soft snow. Refer to Snowmobiles
Equipped with Traction Enhancing Products subsec-
tion for track studding application.
Parking Brake
Always engage the parking brake before starting the
vehicle. The parking brake should be used whenever
the snowmobile is parked.
20
Make sure the parking brake is fully disengaged
before operating the snowmobile. When you ride the
vehicle, brake pads that are caused to drag by a
continuous pressure on the lever may cause damage
to the brake system and cause loss of braking
capacity or fire.
Programmable D.E.S.S. Key
The Programmable D.E.S.S. Key can be pro-
grammed to limit the speed of the snowmobile and
the motor output. This can enable first-time users
and less experienced operators to learn how to oper-
ate while gaining the necessary confidence and
control.
Visit your BRP authorized dealer to see if this acces-
sory is available for your model.
