How do I update my Can-Am 10.25” Display?

Important information before updating the software of the display
- Never perform updates while driving the vehicle.
- Your vehicle's engine can be turned off, but the display still needs to be on.
- 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.

STEP 1: Connect your display to a Wi-Fi network

a) On the main Applet menu, select “Preferences,” and then “Wi-Fi” from the list on the left.
b) Then select “Add New Network,” find the network you’d like to connect to from the list that appears on screen, and enter the password.

*If no Wi-Fi network is available near the vehicle, you can share your smartphone cellular network by hotspot (here's how to do it for Apple and Android devices). Just note cellular data fees may apply. *The 10,25'' touchscreen display will only connect to a secured network

STEP 2: Download and install the new software version
c) Once connected to Wi-Fi, select “General” from the list on the left.
d) Select "Software Update", then the available update (if any).

*Please note that the system will automatically check if a new update is available when the display is connected to an Internet network and the "General" section is open.

e) Press “Download Update” and the process will begin.

f) Once the download is completed, press "Install Update".

*The download and install process should take about 10-20 minutes (depending on the strength of your Internet network).

Once the software update process is completed, your Can-Am Spyder, Canyon, Pulse or Origin display will reboot, and you’ll be equipped with all the latest capabilities for your next adventures. It’s time to start riding again!
