CORDLESS
TETH-AIR

DESCRIPTION

The Cordless Teth-Air is a technologically advanced radio transmitting and receiving safety device. It is designed
for snowmobiles and similar vehicles where the rider/driver may get separated from the controls. This system is
designed to shut off the engine in a runaway condition, whether the throttle is stuck open or when the vehicle may be
kept moving, aided by the engine running uncontrolled in gear.
The Cordless Teth-Air is comprised of two components:
1. Transmitter. (Worn on the wrist of the vehicle operator)
2. Receiver. (Mounted and wired permanently on the vehicle)

The primary mode/feature of operation is to shut off the vehicle engine when the driver is ejected from the drivers
seat or falls off the vehicle. The receiver will shut the engine off when the radio signal strength is too weak. This
condition occurs when the distance from the transmitter and receiver become too great. The ideal set-up condition
allows uninterrupted operation of the vehicle as long as the transmitter on the operator is within 2-3 metres (6-9 feet)
of the receiver.
The secondary mode/feature of operation is to provide limited theft control of your vehicle. When properly
installed, the Cordless Teth-Air does not allow operation of the engine for more than 1 second without receiving the
coded digital signal from the transmitter. This allows the engine to start but does not allow sufficient running time
for a potential thief to ride away.
