SAFETY AND CARBON MONOXIDE WARNING!!!
The following warnings MUST be observed at all times:
Once SledStart is installed on your snowmobile, it will start the snowmo-
bile with a command signal from the 2-way LCD remote control transmit-
ter. LCD remote will confirm a successful start with a three note music
tone and the exhaust cloud icon will appear. SledStart should NEVER
be operated in an area that does not have adequate ventilation. The fol-
lowing precautions are the sole responsibility of the user: however, the
following recommendations should be made to all users of the SledStart
system.
a) Never operate in an enclosed or partially enclosed area that does
not have adequate ventilation such as a garage.
b) When parking in an enclosed or partially enclosed area or when
servicing the snowmobile, SledStart must be disabled using the by-
pass toggle switch 1 - see picture 7 page 11.
c) It is the users sole responsibility that any time SledStart is active
the parking brake must be set.
d) It is the users sole responsibility to properly store all remote trans-
mitters out of the reach from children to assure that SledStart does
not unintentionally remote start the snowmobile.
e) The user must install a carbon monoxide detector in or about the
living area adjacent to the snowmobile. All doors and windows lead-
ing from adjacent living areas to the enclosed or partially enclosed
snowmobile storage area must at all times remain closed.
f) Use of this product in a manner contrary to its intended mode of
operation may result in property damage, personal injury, or death.
1) Never remotely start the snowmobile with the clutch guard,
clutch cover, or clutch body panels removed.
2) Never remotely start the snowmobile with the keys in the
ignition.
3) The user will be responsible for making sure the safety pin
switch is installed, adjusted, and operating correctly at all times
wherein the snowmobile will not start with the clutch cover or body
panels removed.
g) After the SledStart module has been installed, test the toggle switch
and safety pin switch for correct adjustment and operation by perform-

2
ing the safety check on page 14 of this user manual. If the snowmo-
bile starts when performing the pin switch or toggle switch test, the
module, pin switch, or toggle switch has not been installed properly.
The module must be removed or properly installed so that the snow-
mobile will not start with the toggle bypass in the off position or the
clutch cover removed from the snowmobile. OPERATION OF THE
SLEDSTART MODULE IF THE PIN SWITCH OR TOGGLE SWITCH
IS NOT INSTALLED, BYPASSED OR MALFUNCTIONING IS CON-
TRARY TO ITS INTENDED MODE OF OPERATION. OPERATING
THE SLEDSTART SNOWMOBILE REMOTE START SYSTEM UN-
DER THESE CONDITIONS MAY RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE
OR PERSONAL INJURY. IMMEDIATELY CEASE THE USE OF THE
UNIT AND REPAIR OR DISCONNECT THE INSTALLED MODULE.
SLEDSTART WILL NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY AND
ALL INJURIES OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.

INTRODUCTIONNTRODUCTION
NTRODUCTIONNTRODUCTION
NTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing The SledStartTM Remote Starter System. This
system features state-of-the-art 2-way technology designed to give you
maximum satisfaction and performance, and was specifically designed for
use in extremely cold temperatures.
Please use caution when operating this system. SledStart can be set for
run times up to 15 minutes. Only in extreme subzero temperatures should
longer run time settings be used. In most cases the 5 or 10 minute set-
ting will be enough to warm up the engine. SledStart should NEVER be
used on a warm or hot engine as engine overheating or damage could
occur. Many snowmobiles have overheat protection built into the Engine
Control Module or ECM. This feature will stop the engine at a preset tem-
perature if it has been idling too long. SledStart has a unique feature that
will work along with the ECM to help protect from overheating. This is ex-
plained in more detail later in this user manual. Please use common sense!
Don't leave your snowmobile idling unattended for any length of time. Know
your snowmobile and the conditions around it. Example: Don't set the run
time for 15 minutes on a warm day.
Please read this entire manual prior to installing and operating the sys-
tem. Take a moment to become familiar with all of the built-in features
that are exceptionally useful in cold weather riding.
SledStart is designed to operate in temperatures ranging from -40oF to
185oF or -40oC to 85oC. When mounting the module always try to mount
in a location that will not receive extreme heat or water. The electronics
in the SledStart module have been specially coated to help reduce dam-
age due to wet weather. It is always best to mount the module in an area
that will remain dry.
Depending on the obstacles, SledStart is designed to operate with a com-
munication range of up to 1 mile or 1500 meters but will vary with sur-
rounding conditions. Mount the antenna at the highest possible point in-
side the snowmobile being careful not to mount where it can become dam-
aged from water, extreme heat or any moving parts.
Powering the SledStart Remote Starter System LCD transmitter is one 1.5
volt AAA alkaline battery. We recommend replacing the battery when LCD
battery indicator icon is down to 1 bar. The unit itself requires no spe-
cific maintenance.
The SledStart Remote Starter System complies with part 15 of the FCC
rules. Operation is subject to the two following conditions:

4
1) This device may not cause harmful interference
2) This device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party respon-
sible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the device.

CAUTION:
Prior to installation, please be certain that the 30-amp fuse in the
red 12-volt wire from the SledStart module is removed and the
snowmobile battery is disconnected!!!!!
The SledStart Remote Starter System was designed to be a true plug-
and-play system, making it easy for the user to install. Installation will con-
sist of plugging the pre-wired piggybacked connectors from the SledStart
module into the snowmobile's ignition switch connector, brake switch con-
nector, and one of the fuel injectors. There is also a positive and nega-
tive battery hookup along with mounting a pin switch for the clutch side
body panel and a bypass toggle switch. The mounting of the SledStart
module itself will vary model to model. The best location for the Apex is
inside the steering gate on the clutch side of the snowmobile. Please visit
our website www.sledstart.com for detailed pictures of this location. It is
important to note the direction the module will face to avoid damage to
the antenna wire. At the time this manual went to print, not all mount lo-
cations for all models have been tested. Please see our website as we
will have updates on there as they become available. Any location that
will not see excessive amounts of heat, snow pack or water is suitable.
Be careful of mounting module near any steering components as these
parts need to move free and clear of any obstacle. It is suggested that
you inspect the module after your first ride especially for deep powder
riding. The SledStart module is specially coated internally to prevent dam-
age from moisture, but excessive snow pack can cause moisture issues.
Snow pack could also cause overheating of the internal relays if the mod-
ule does not have ample ventilation. If you ride EXTREMELY hard it may
be a good idea to insert a piece of foam between the module and the
mounting surface to help reduce shock. We saw no failure due to this in
testing, but it may not be a bad idea.
NOTE 1: You will notice the gray/black wire with the bypass toggle switch
bundled together after removing from the package. Leave this bundled
until step 5 as it will make installation easier and reduce risk of breaking
the wires from the toggle switch.
NOTE 2: The violet wire from the SledStart module is only used if you
are running Rock's Warm Hands Controller or "YamaHeater". If you plug
the Violet wire with the male spade connector from the SledStart Module
to the Violet wire with the female spade connector from the Yamaheater,
your Yamaheater will now turn on when you remote start your snowmo-
bile. This will provide nice toasty hand grips before you go riding!

CAUTION:
Supplied pin switch for the clutch side body panel cover and
bypass toggle switch must be installed for proper operation. These
are very important safety features and without them properly
installed serious injury can occur. If either of these switches are not
installed or they are bypassed, it is at the user's own risk. When the
clutch cover pin switch is closed (grounded) it will disable the
SledStart system. It should be mounted and adjusted so that when
the body panel is mounted to the snowmobile the pin switch is
pushed in (open) and will allow SledStart to operate normally. The
pin switch mounting bracket and pin switch itself have plenty of
adjustment for any application. Our website shows various mount-
ing locations on different models of snowmobiles. Installation is
simple so please be sure this switch is mounted. The bypass toggle
switch will perform the same cutoff function disabling SledStart
from operation when the switch is in the off position. This switch
should always be in the off position along with disconnecting the
snowmobile battery when any service is being performed on the
snowmobile. A surprise start at the wrong time can make for a very
bad day. Please install both of these switches.
STEP 1
Remove necessary body panels to locate the battery of the snowmobile.
With a Phillips screwdriver, remove the negative and positive leads to the
battery being careful not to lose the square nuts in the battery terminal
housings. It is a good idea to insert the bolts back into the battery and be
sure the positive and negative leads are pushed out away from the bat-
tery. You will be adding the appropriate connectors from the SledStart mod-
ule to these terminals later in this section. Visit www.sledstart.com and
click on the installation tab to view detailed preparation and installation
videos online.
STEP 2
Locate your main fuse block on your snowmobile. This is typically found
on the chain case side of the sled right in front of where your right knee
would be when you are sitting on your sled. Open the plastic lid to the
fuse block and find the “SIG” fuse. If your Yamaha Snowmobile has a 3-
amp or 7½-amp fuse for the “SIG” in your main fuse block, you must re-
place this fuse to the 10-amp fuse supplied in your kit before installing
the SledStart module. This is your taillight fuse. Since the taillights are all
switching over to LED’s, the fuse value has decreased with some of the
new model snowmobiles. Depending on your model, you will find anywhere
form a 3-amp to a 20-amp fuse in this location.

8
Please check your “SIG” fuse before you attempt the SledStart installa-
tion. The wire in this circuit is rated at 20 amps so installing the 10-amp
fuse is safe and will cause no harm to your snowmobile. If you do not
upgrade this fuse if it is needed, you
will immediately blow the 3-amp
fuse and eventually the 7½-amp as
well. A 10-amp fuse is included in
your SledStart kit. If your snowmo-
bile has a 10-amp or higher in this
location from the factory, please
move on to Step 3. See picture 1.
STEP 3
Remove the necessary body panels to locate (depending on the model)
the 4 or 6-pin connector from the key switch. This connector should have
a red/white wire, a brown/white wire, a brown wire, and a red wire on the
key side of the connector and a blue/white wire, a black wire, a brown
wire and a red/yellow wire on the harness side of the connector. Unplug
the connector and locate the blue/white wire and the brown wire from the
SledStart harness with the matching male/female piggyback attached. In-
sert the male connector from SledStart into the female connector on the
key switch side of the snowmobile harness. Next plug the female con-
nector from SledStart into the male connector on the snowmobile harness
side. Secure all connectors and the piggyback so they will not bounce
excessively. See picture 2.
CAUTION:
MAKE SURE THE BLUE/WHITE
WIRE FROM THE SledStart
MODULE MATCHES UP TO THE
BLUE/WHITE WIRE ON THE
HARNESS SIDE AND TO THE
RED/WHITE WIRE ON THE KEY
SIDE OF THE SNOWMOBILE
IGNITION CONNECTOR. ALSO
BE SURE THAT ALL BROWN WIRES ARE MATCHED UP IN ALL
CONNECTORS. IF ANY OF THE ABOVE DO NOT MATCH, DO NOT
PROCEED WITH INSTALLATION. PLEASE CONTACT US FOR
FURTHER ASSISTANCE.
STEP 4
Remove necessary body panels to locate the 2-pin brake connector. This
connector should have a blue/red wire and a green wire. This connector
Picture 2
Picture 1

will be located in a rubber boot along with many other connectors. Un-
plug the connector and locate the blue/red wire and green wire on the
SledStart harness with the matching male/female piggyback attached. In-
sert the male connector from SledStart into the female connector from the
snowmobile. Next insert the female connector from SledStart into the male
connector from the snowmobile. Insert all the connectors back into the
rubber boot and reseal. See picture 3.
CAUTION:
MAKE SURE ALL BLUE/RED
WIRES AND ALL GREEN WIRES
MATCH UP IN ALL CONNEC-
TORS. IF ANY OF THE ABOVE
DO NOT MATCH, DO NOT PRO-
CEED WITH INSTALLATION.
PLEASE CONTACT US FOR
FURTHER ASSISTANCE.
STEP 5
NOTE: In this step please make sure you are locating the fuel injector
connector on the top of the fuel injector at the throttle bodies and NOT
the coil pack connectors on the cylinder head of the engine. This is a com-
mon mistake we have addressed on our tech line. The injector connec-
tors and the coil connectors are noticeably different. See picture 4 below.
Locate the easiest accessible fuel injector on your snowmobile. Unplug
the connector on the top of the injector by squeezing the tab on the con-
nector and pulling up. These are watertight connectors and will be snug.
Wiggle carefully if necessary as you pull up to release watertight gasket
and remove the connector. Locate the orange/black wire from the Sled-
Start harness with the matching fuel injector piggyback connector. Plug
the piggyback onto the injector then plug the injector connector from the
snowmobile harness into the piggyback. Cable tie the fuel injector piggy-
back to a location that will be out
of the way and secure. This will
help reduce wire fatigue caused by
vibration leading to wire breakage,
causing the injector not to function.
If at any time the injector stops fir-
ing, remove the piggyback and re-
install the direct connection again.
See picture 4. Please contact us
for further assistance if necessary.

STEP 6
Install the pin switch bracket on the clutch side of the snowmobile. The
bracket must be mounted to aluminum allowing the pin switch to ground
out. This will stop the engine if the clutch cover is removed during remote
start operation. Use the pin switch bracket to mark the location of the two
holes to be drilled. The bracket should have the threaded end facing to-
ward the outside of the snowmobile. Be sure NOT to mount bracket flush
with edge of the aluminum. There needs to be room for the pin switch
itself. Both the pin switch and the bracket have ample adjustment to bring
the movement of the switch to the appropriate position so it is best to back
the bracket off about 5/8" from the edge. For further detailed mounting
information and detailed pictures for various models please visit our
website at www.sledstart.com. Drill holes using a 3/16" drill bit. Using the
two supplied #10 screws and matching Nylock nuts, attach the pin bracket
to the snowmobile. Slide bracket back a little less than half the total dis-
tance of the slots in the bracket and tighten the Nylock nuts. See pictures
5 & 6.
STEP 7
Thread the pin switch into the pin switch bracket. Check the adjustment
by installing the side body panel making sure the switch will push in from
the grounded position. Lock the pin switch to the bracket using the two
lock nuts. Attach the two gray/black wires (one from the SledStart module
and one from the bypass toggle switch) with the female connector to the
rear of the pin switch.
STEP 8
Find a suitable location for the toggle switch and ground it with the black
wire attached to the toggle switch. The switch should be mounted or zip-
tied in a location that will stay dry but has easy access. WARNING: THE
TOGGLE SWITCH MUST ALWAYS BE IN THE OFF POSITION WHEN
WORKING ON THE SNOWMOBILE. THIS WILL DISABLE THE SLED-
Picture 5 Picture 6

11
START MODULE. See picture 7.
NOTE: See www.sledstart.com and
click on the installation tab to view de-
tailed videos of the pin switch and
toggle switch locations.
STEP 9
Find the best wire routing and use the
supplied wire loom and cable ties. If
possible, just route the loom along with
other wires and cable tie away from any extreme heat. Be cautious of any-
where the wire or wire loom can rub over time. Save the two large heavy
duty cable ties for mounting the module in Step 10.
STEP 10
Using the included 14" heavy duty cable ties, mount the SledStart mod-
ule to the snowmobile. It is always best to install the module in a dry lo-
cation where it can sense the under hood temperatures when the Tem-
perature Autostart feature is used. The module will then know when the
engine is at the user-selected temperature so it can perform a restart. For
more info on Temperature Autostart see page 15.
NOTE: See www.sledstart.com and click on the installation tab to view
detailed videos of module and antenna mounting locations.
STEP 11
Mount the antenna by removing the film off the sticky pad on the antenna
base and stick the antenna to the highest possible location. Antenna
mounting surface must be clean of dirt and debris. Clean the mounting
location with rubbing alcohol before sticking antenna to mounting surface.
STEP 12
Making sure the 30 amp fuse is removed from the red 12V lead from the
SledStart module, connect the red 12V lead to the battery's positive or
(+) terminal. Next install the pink/white wire and the black wire from the
SledStart module to the battery's negative or (-) terminal.
After installation is complete, check ALL the connections from SledStart
to the snowmobile. Make sure all piggyback wire colors match the snow-
mobile on the ignition, brake and injector connectors. If any do not match
DO NOT PROCEED WITH THIS INSTALLATION AND CONTACT US IM-
Picture 7

MEDIATELY.
Check to make sure all wires are routed clean and are inserted thoroughly
into the provided split loom. Check for any possible areas where the wires
or split loom can rub or chafe over time causing a short.
Next install the 30 amp fuse in the red 12V wire from the SledStart mod-
ule to the positive terminal of the battery.
STEP 13
Install the AAA battery into the LCD remote be unlocking the battery door
with the slide lock on the back of the remote. Once the battery is installed
a self-test of all the icons will be performed along with a single beep from
the remote. Reinstall the battery cover and lock it with the slide lock.
NOTE: The violet wire on the SledStart Module is only to be used with
the Yamaheater Hot Hands Controller. For more information or to order the
Yamaheater, please visit our website www.sledstart.com or e-mail us at
[email protected]. For a user manual on how to operate SledStart
and Yamaheater together please e-mail us at [email protected].

FEATURES OVERVIEW
Feature 1 - Engine Run Time
This feature sets how long the engine will run during any mode of remote
start (manual, timer, temperature mode). Option settings are option 1 = 5
minutes, 2 = 10 minutes, and 3 = 15 minutes. Press "S" to run the Manual
Start Mode.
CAUTION!!!
During the first minute after activating any mode of remote starting
(manual, temperature, timer) and the engine fails to start, or loses
ignition, SledStart will make two more attempts to start the engine.
If the snowmobile fails to start after 3 attempts SledStart shuts
down. If the engine shuts down after the one-minute window,
SledStart will not attempt to restart regardless of the number of
attempts made during initial start up. This feature is designed to
protect the engine from overheating. On many models, if the engine
has idled to a critical temperature the snowmobile’s ECM will shut
down the engine. If this happens within the one-minute window of
any remote start activation, ENGINE DAMAGE CAN OCCUR as
SledStart will attempt to restart engine during that first one minute.
Please use caution and only use remote start modes on a cold en-
gine!
