to allow vehicle operation.
NOTE: After engine starting, 2 short
beeps should be heard if a pro-
grammed D.E.S.S. key (tether cord
cap) is correctly snapped on engine
cut-off switch. If another beep code

RF D.E.S.S. (Digitally Encoded
Security System)
The tether cord cap has an integrated
D.E.S.S. key to provide you and your
snowmobile with the equivalent secu-
rity of a conventional lock key.
The D.E.S.S. key contains an electronic
chip which features a unique perma-
nently memorized digital code.
Your authorized Lynx dealer has pro-
gramed the D.E.S.S. of your snowmo-
bile to recognize the D.E.S.S. key in the
tether cord cap to allow vehicle opera-

If another tether cord is used without
programming the D.E.S.S., the engine
will start but will not reach drive pulley
engagement speed to move vehicle.
Make sure the tether cord cap is free of
dirt or snow.
D.E.S.S. Flexibility
The D.E.S.S. of your snowmobile can
be programmed by your authorized
Lynx dealer to accept up to 8 different
