Polaris snowmobiles equipped with digital gauges, the 7S display and the Polaris Interactive Digital Display (PIDD) feature security functions that can be activated by an authorized Polaris Dealer. With this feature activated, you can lock the ignition, preventing unauthorized use when you leave your snowmobile unattended. The locked system will limit engine speed to 3,000 RPM. This prevents clutch engagement, and the snowmobile will not move when throttle is applied.
Have the security system activated by an authorized Polaris Dealer.
The factory default security code is 000. Change the default security code to one of your own choosing.
