How to update the software on Can-Am Off-Road displays

 

Why should you update your display?


The 10.25″ Wireless Touch Display and the 10.25″ Touch Display have Wi-Fi connectivity to connect to your home network or another wireless internet connection, and update the software running your Can-Am ATV or SSV display. Just like for your mobile devices, this allows you to add new features, interface improvements, security updates and more.

 

How do I update my Can-Am touchscreen display?


Important information before updating the software of the display:

- Your vehicle's engine can be turned off, but the display still needs to be on.
- Never perform updates while driving the vehicle.
- Make sure your vehicle has sufficient battery charge. We recommend installing a charger on your vehicle during the process to ensure the battery has enough charge.
