OPERATION
Reverse Operation
Electronic Reverse (PERCt)
Electronic reverse will activate only if the engine is below 4000 R PM.
If your machine is running at an altitude of over 6000 feet, adjust t he
ignition setting as described below. Always make sure the vehicle is
stopped and the engine is running at idle before shifting to reverse.
1. Make sure the area behind your vehicle is clear.
2. Push the yellow reverse button on the left-hand control for one
second, then release. The engine will automatically reduce RPM and
start a reverse rotation. A flashing reverse light on the instrument
panel will indicate that the machine is in reverse.
3. Slowly apply the throttle until movement starts and you’re sure the
machine is in reverse.
NOTE: The maximum engine RPM will be 6000 when in reverse.
NOTE: If the engine stops running, the snowmobile will be in forward
gear when it’s restarted.
Disengaging Reverse
Push the yellow reverse button on the left-hand control for one second
and release. The engine will slow and and begin to rotate forward.
The light on the instrument panel will shut off. Make sure the area
around your vehicle is clear and apply throttle slowly until you’re sure
the machine is in forward gear.
Altitude Setting
At higher altitudes (above 6000 feet), the engine will require a different
ignition setting to improve the success of the reverse system. To set
for a higher altitude, start the engine and hold the button down until the
light on the instrument panel flashes rapidly, then release t he button.
To set the reverse for lower elevations, continue holding the button
down until the reverse indicator light blinks slowly. Once set, it’s
stored in memory until changed, whether the machine is running or
not.
