CONTROLS, INSTRUMENTS AND EQUIPMENT
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 al-
low 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 autho-
rized 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.
