FEATURES

Engine Management System

The engine management system is programmed to alert the rider when 
coolant temperatures reach higher-than-normal levels. The system 
responds by taking the following sequential steps to alert the rider.

1.

The High Temperature Indicator on the MFD will flash.

To cool the engine, drive the snowmobile into soft snow so that it comes 
into contact with the heat exchangers on the snowmobile. Alternately, 
you can stop the snowmobile and pack snow or ice onto the heat 
exchangers to bring the temperature of the engine down.

2.

The High Temperature Indicator on the MFD will flash and the 
engine will misfire or "stutter".

If you do not notice the flashing indicator on the MFD or do not suffi-
ciently cool the snowmobile, the engine will misfire to alert you to look 
at the MFD and take action. Again, driving the snowmobile into soft 
snow or packing snow onto the heat exchangers should cool the engine.

3.

The engine will stop.

If the engine reaches an extreme temperature where damage becomes 
possible, the system will stop the engine. This condition will occur only 
after the system has taken both previous steps to alert the rider to the 
extreme engine temperature. If the engine stops and you attempt to 
restart it while before it has cooled sufficiently, the engine will restart 
and run for two seconds but will immediately stop again.

Tip: The engine management system will also turn the engine off if the engine 

reaches an extreme temperature while idling.

MFD Settings

The MFD control switch allows you 
to set the MFD display to your pref-
erences. The rocker switch has a 
MODE button (top) and a SET but-
ton (bottom). Specific instructions 
are outlined on the following pages.

MFD settings can be made with the 
engine running or with the engine 
off. If the engine is off, make sure 
the stop switch is pressed down, and 
turn the ignition key to the START 
position briefly to activate the 
gauge. The gauge will illuminate for 
about 90 seconds.

Standard vs. Metric

The MFD will display either standard or metric units of measurement. 
While viewing a screen that displays measurements (MPH, km/h or 
temperatures), press and hold the MODE switch until the unit of mea-
surement changes (about 10 seconds).

Speedometer/Tachometer

If your model is equipped with both analog and digital displays, the 
speedometer and tachometer can be viewed in either display. If the ana-
log display is set to show speedometer readings, the digital screen will 
automatically display the tachometer (option 1). If the analog is set to 
show the tachometer, the digital screen will show the speedometer 
(option 2).

To change viewing preferences, press and hold the MODE button for 
three seconds. When the button is released, the new setting becomes 
active and screen colors change. See table below.
