CONTROLS, INSTRUMENTS AND EQUIPMENT
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-
tion.
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
keys.
We recommend the purchase of ad-
ditional tether cords from your au-
thorized Lynx dealer.
If you have
more than one D.E.S.S.-equipped
Lynx snowmobile, each can be pro-
grammed by your authorized Lynx
dealer to accept the other vehicles
D.E.S.S. keys.
D.E.S.S. Key Types
Two types of keys can be used:
– Normal key
– Learning key.
To ease key type recognition, the
tether cord comes in different colors.
KEY TYPE COLOR
Normal Gray
Learning Green
The Lynx learning key, limits the speed
of the snowmobile and the engine
torque, therefore enabling first time
users and less experienced operators
to learn how to operate the snowmo-
bile while gaining the necessary confi-
dence and control.
NOTE: The initial learning key pro-
gramming can limit the speed
to 40 km/h (25 MPH) or 70 km/h
(43 MPH). Refer to your authorized
Lynx dealer to modify this setting.
Refer to OPERATING MODES subsec-
tion for details.
