On these models tether cut-out switch is part of tether cut-out sys-
tem. This system has 2 functions.
It shuts off engine preventing snowmobile to runaway if the operator
falls off the vehicle accidently.
Through the DESS
TM
(Digitally Encoded Security System), it acts as
a lock by preventing unauthorized use of your snowmobile, thus de-
terring theft.
DESS (Digitally Encoded Security System) Description
This system is digitally encoded to provide you and your snowmobile
with the equivalent security as a conventional lock key.
The tether cord cap provided with your snowmobile contains an elec-
tronic chip in which a unique digital code is permanently memorized.
Your authorized SKI-DOO dealer programs this key code in the
MPEM (Multi-Purpose Electronic Module) of your snowmobile to al-
low engine operation above 3000 RPM if and only if this unique code
has been read after engine starting.
If a tether cord cap with different code is installed, the engine will start
but will not reach drive pulley engagement speed to move vehicle.
WARNING
Always remove tether cord cap and key when vehicle is not in
operation in order to prevent accidental engine starting or to
avoid unauthorized use by children or others or theft.
