Safe Operating Instructions 61
Use only BRP recommended tires,
which can be ordered only from an au-
thorized Can-Am On-Road dealer.
Proper tire inflation pressure and
tread condition are important for main-
taining traction, especially on loose or
wet surfaces. Tire pressure that is too
low may result in hydroplaning and ex-
cessive tire heat build up, while a tire
pressure that is too high can reduce
VSS effectiveness.
H Ha arrd d T Tu urrn nss
The VSS does not control or limit
steering input — it cannot keep you
from turning too sharply. Large and
rapid steering handlebar movements
can cause the vehicle to go out of con-
trol, spin, tip or roll over.
E Exxcce essss S Sp pe ee ed d
The VSS does not control the vehicle
speed, except when SCS intervenes
during a turn. The VSS does not pre-
vent the vehicle from entering a turn
too fast. If you drive too fast for condi-
tions, you can lose control, even with
VSS.

The DPS (Dynamic Power Steering)
provides a computer controlled, varia-
ble power assist, achieved by an elec-
tric motor to optimize the amount of
steering effort required by the rider.
The steering assist level is dependent
of the handlebar effort, the steering
angle and the vehicle speed.
When vehicle is in the reverse gear,
power steering assist will decrease as
vehicle speed increases.
