Can-Am 2009 Renegade 500 Operator's Manual - 11) Rear Brake Pedal
CONTROLS/INSTRUMENTS/EQUIPMENTS
NOTE: When turning the key to OFF
position and removing the key, the ve-
hicle electrical system will take a few
seconds to shut down.
The ON with lights position, turns on
all lights with either the engine run-
ning or not. Remember that having
the lights on without the engine run-
ning discharges the battery. Always
turn ignition key to OFF position after
engine has been stopped.
NOTE: While engine can be stopped
by turning ignition key to OFF position,
we recommend the engine be stopped
by the engine stop switch.
Digitally Encoded Security System
(DESS)
The ignition key specifically contains
an electronic circuit that gives it a
unique electronic serial number.
This ignition key cannot be used on an-
other vehicle and conversely, the one
from another vehicle cannot be used
on your vehicle except if it was pro-
grammed this way.
However, the DESS brings a great flexi-
bility. You can buy an additional ignition
key and have it programmed for your
vehicle.
To have additional ignition key, refer to
an authorized Can-Am dealer.
11) Rear Brake Pedal
When pressed down, the rear brake
is applied. When released, the brake
pedal should return to its original posi-
tion. Braking effect is proportional to
the force applied on the pedal and to
the type and condition of the terrain.
