Snowmobile Routing Information
NOTE: Snowmobile Vehicle Profile must be selected on the device to use the Snowmobile routing.
Tread, Tread 2, Tread - Base Edition, or Tread - Textron:
Select the vehicle profile icon on the status bar and select Snowmobile.
Tread - SxS Edition, Tread - Overland Edition, and Tread XL - Overland Edition instructions:
Swipe down twice from the top of the screen, Select the vehicle profile icon on the status bar and select Snowmobile.
When the Snowmobile vehicle profile is selected, the device will provide turn-by-turn routing on Snowmobile trails where coverage is available.
- Snowmobile routing will not work on snowmobile trails that cross states. For example, If a snowmobile trail starts in Wisconsin and crosses over to Minnesota, the device will stop routing on the state border. A new snowmobile route must be started on the device in Minnesota.
