WARNING
Always attach the tether cord eyelet to clothing before
starting the engine.
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 security of a
conventional lock key.
The D.E.S.S. key contains an electronic chip which features a
unique permanently memorized digital code.
Your authorized Ski-Doo dealer has programed the D.E.S.S.
of your snowmobile to recognize the D.E.S.S. key in the tether
cord cap to allow vehicle operation.
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 Ski-Doo dealer to accept up to 8 different keys.
We recommend the purchase of additional tether cords from
your authorized Ski-Doo dealer.
If you have more than
one D.E.S.S. equipped Ski-Doo snowmobile, each can be
programmed by your authorized Ski-Doo dealer to accept the
other vehicles D.E.S.S. keys.
