IDD for Snowmobiles
General Snowmobile IDD Information
Certain Polaris IDD features are active only when using
the display on snowmobiles. Some IDD features may
function only while the engine is running (such as
Security and Diagnostics). If an IDD feature seems nonfunctional, start the engine to access that feature. Do not
allow an engine to run in an enclosed area without
adequate ventilation.
Snowmobile-specific IDD features include:
• Left Hand Controls
• Fuel Type Selection
• Security (if enabled)
IDD features that are not active when installed on a
snowmobile include:
• Gear selection (reverse only)
• All-Wheel Drive Indicator
CAUTION! The speedometer may display incorrect
values at the existence of electromagnetic
radiation >= 10 V/m.
The IDD initialization process must be performed on
some snowmobiles in order for a new or newly installed
IDD to function properly. It must also be performed every
time the IDD is updated with files from the RiderX web
site. See page 32. These models include:
• 600 AXYS models
• Any non-AXYS model for which an accessory IDD is
available
30
IDD Power Sources
On snowmobiles equipped with an electric start battery
and IDD, always turn the key off when the IDD is not in
use. If the key remains in the RUN position after using
the auxiliary engine stop switch to stop the engine, the
IDD remains active, drawing power from the battery.
The IDD is not dependent on the battery while the engine
is running, but the battery supplies a constant power
source when the engine is off or when the engine is
transitioning between forward and reverse operation. If a
battery is not installed, the IDD reboots when the engine
is started and when electronic reverse (PERC) is used.
31
Initialization Process
Key 1Key 2Key 3Key 4Key 5
Key 1Key 2Key 3Key 4Key 5
The initialization process must be performed when the
engine is running. Not all models require this procedure.
See page 30.
1. Start the engine. Do not allow an engine to run in an
enclosed area without adequate ventilation.
2. In the System Settings menu, select SYSTEM INFO.
3. Press and hold Key 1 until the next screen displays.

4. Press Key 3. The display will reboot and begin the
configuration process.
Left Hand Controls
The left hand controls on AXYS and 600/800 PRO-RIDE
models allow riders to switch screens, zoom in or out and
drop waypoints without removing their hands from the
handlebars.
WARNING! Do not enter information or adjust this
device while operating your vehicle. Distracted driving
can result in loss of control, collision or accident,
which may result in serious injury or death. Avoid
using any features and devices while driving that may
take your attention away from the road or trail and
safe driving habits, even for a moment.
The operator assumes all risk associated with using
this device. Please read the owner’s manual provided
with your vehicle.

First Time Activation
Snowmobiles equipped with the IDD are equipped with a
security function that can be activated by an authorized
Polaris dealer. If you have this feature activated, you can
lock the ignition to prevent unauthorized use when
leaving the snowmobile unattended. A locked system will
limit engine speed to 3000 RPM, which prevents clutch
engagement, and the snowmobile will not move when
throttle is applied.
1. Have the security system activated by your
authorized Polaris dealer.
2. The factory default security code is “000”. Change the
default security code to a code of your own choosing.
See Change Security Code on page 40.

dealers may reset a lost or forgotten security code.
41
Detonation Elimination Technology (DET)
The DET system prevents damage to the engine from
detonation by entering an engine protection mode
whenever the DET system is active.
When excessive detonation is detected, the check
engine light will illuminate. You may notice decreased
engine performance and RPM when the DET system is
activated. In most cases this is temporary and no action
is required. The engine will return to its normal
performance automatically.
If severe detonation occurs:
• The check engine light begins to flash steadily.
• The IDD displays “Detonation Detected - MAG (or
PTO)”.
• The engine enters DET latching (limp home) mode.
• On 2015 800 AXYS models, the ECU closes
exhaust valves to limit engine power in DET latching
mode. On all other 2015 AXYS and PRO-RIDE
models, the ECU will shut down the engine during
DET latching mode. In either event, restart the
engine to reset the mode.
• For all 2015 AXYS and PRO-RIDE models, the ECU
will shut down the engine during a critical overheat
condition.
42
Engine Overheat Indicators
Temperature Scale
The engine temperature scale at the right side of the IDD
screen changes to RED and the check engine
temperature indicator at the top left of the screen
illuminates when the engine is overheating. Take action
to cool the engine.
The indicator will flash when engine temperature reaches
critical levels. Stop the engine immediately.
NOTE: Please see your vehicle owner’s manual for
more information.
A flashing indicator indicates continued operation could
result in serious engine damage. The engine
management system will automatically reduce engine
power and create a misfire condition. Stop the engine immediately. Allow the engine to cool down.
NOTE: If engine overheating seems to be caused by
something other than poor cooling conditions, see
your dealer for service.
43
Bluetooth
Before Connecting
Compatibility
1. Refer to your phone’s user manual before attempting

type affects information sharing.
2. Verify that your phone is equipped with Bluetooth and
that Bluetooth is turned on.
NOTE: Some of the features and functionality of the
IDD may vary due to the operations software on your
phone.
