OPERATION

Electronic Reverse (PERC 4t)

Electronic reverse will activate only when the vehicle is stopped and

engine speed is below 2500 RPM. Maximum vehicle speed when oper-

ating in reverse will be approximately 12 MPH (19 km/h).

Engaging Reverse

1. Stop the snowmobile and leave the

engine idling.

2. Make sure the area behind your snow-

mobile is clear.

3. Push the yellow reverse button on the

left-hand control for one second, then

release.

NOTE:

A reverse light on the instrument panel will indicate that the snowmo-

bile is in reverse.

4. Apply the throttle slowly to make sure the snowmobile is in reverse.

NOTE:

If the engine stops running, the snowmobile will be in forward gear

when it's restarted.

WARNING

Improper reverse operation, even at low speeds, may cause loss of control,

resulting in serious injury or death. Damage will occur to the gearcase or

transmission if shifting is attempted when the engine is operating above idle

speed.
• Shift to or from reverse only when the snowmobile is stopped and when

engine speed is at idle.

• Look behind the snowmobile before and while backing.
• Avoid sharp turns.
• Apply throttle slowly.
