10.25” DISPLAY - FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Overview
The 10.25" touchscreen display is available (sometimes as an option) on the following Lynx models:
- Shredder DS (2023, 2024 & 2025)
- Shredder RE (2023, 2024 & 2025)
- Rave RE (2024 & 2025)
- Rave GLS (2025)
- Xterrain RE (2024 & 2025)
- Brutal RE 16'' (2025)
- Adventure Limited (2025)
- Adventure Electric (2025)
The Trail, Crossover and Deep Snow models offer quite much the same features on the screen. The only difference is that the Trail and Crossover models are equipped with a control module on the handlebar to control the display without touching the touch screen, while the Shredder Deep Snow models do not have this option.
Without a control module, it is therefore not possible on Shredder models to control the display while driving and not possible to use the Applet Switcher or the Ride Settings or the Voice Assistant (because these features are accessible from buttons on the control module).
The Applet Switcher is a functionnality that allows you to easily switch between apps on the display using the dedicated button on the control module (available on Trail and Crossover models only). You can manage the available apps and their changing order in: Parameters > Applet Switcher Manager.
The Ride Settings function makes it easy to change certain vehicle parameters while riding using the dedicated button on the control module (available on Trail and Crossover models only). The following settings can be changed using the function:
- Audio volume
You can manage the available settings their changing order in: Parameters > Ride Settings Manager.
No, only the BRP GO! navigation app can be used on the display.
Yes, with touchscreen gloves (which contain conductive material on the fingertips).
No.
Interface navigation
You can display the gauge in two different formats:
- Full mode: the gauge is displayed in full screen
- Split screen mode: the gauge is displayed on the left third of the screen with an applet on the right
To change the gauge display format, you can either:
- Swipe the divider with your finger
- Access the Applet Menu (tap the icon at the bottom right of the screen in the Status bar)
- Use the Applet Switcher button (on the control module) to switch apps
Yes. An option to lock the touchscreen is available in the Quick Preferences (press the Quick Preferences icon in the Status bar). Once the lock mode is activated, a lock icon will appear on the screen. To unlock it, long press on the screen with your finger.
Yes. To ensure safe riding, some features are blocked when the vehicle is in motion. It is therefore not possible to do the following actions while riding:
- Use the touchscreen
- Access the Preferences, Vehicle settings, Quick Preferences and Applet Menu
- Initiate phone calls
To add, switch or remove the extra gauge in the middle of the Full gauge screen, you have to long press (2 seconds) in the center of the screen (between the speed and the RPM gauges).

Headset
BRP recommends the use of either a Vibe, Sena, Nolan or Cardo headset with the display. Only models from these headset manufacturers have been tested for full compatibility in terms of Bluetooth connection and functionality with the unit. However, other aftermarket headsets could be compatible.
The difference in terms of features between the Driver and Passenger helmet designations is that the Driver will be the only one to receive or initiate calls and use the Voice Assistant feature. But both will be able to listen to the audio.
Yes, changing the volume on the vehicle display via the control module will change the volume in the helmet. You can also adjust the volume directly on your helmet headset (driver and passenger helmets can have different volumes).
After the initial pairing of the headset to the display, we recommend that you always turn on the headset two minutes before or after starting the vehicle (therefore avoid turning on the headset at the same time as starting your vehicle). This could prevent potential Bluetooth connection issues.
Navigation
From winter 2024-2025, it will be possible to use certain navigation features on the display without connecting a mobile device thanks to built-in GPS and embedded maps.
To benefit from more navigation features such as route planning and friend tracking, the free BRP GO! mobile app must be used (by connecting a phone via a USB cable).
Features available without connecting a phone:
- See topographic map and snowmobile trails (in supported regions)
- View your position on the map
- Record your current trip (breadcrumb)
- Show/hide breadcrumbs from previous rides
- Orient yourself with a compass
Features available when a phone is connected and the BRP GO! app is used:
- Same features as without connecting a phone
- Plan routes
- Ride with turn-by-turn directions
- Locate your friends (with cellular network)
- Search and find points of interest
- Save custom locations
- Get riding statistics
- Consult past rides on the mobile app
- And more
The built-in GPS is available as standard on 2025 Lynx models equipped with the 10.25" display.
For 2023 and 2024 Lynx models equipped with the 10.25" display, it will be possible to purchase a GPS module and install it on the vehicle to benefit from navigation without a phone connection. It will also be necessary to update the display software to get the new features (the update will be available soon).
In Europe, all official snowmobile trails of Norway, Finland and Sweden are available and provided by Mapitare.
Media
No, you must connect your phone via Bluetooth to listen to music. The USB connection of your phone does not allow music playback. USB sticks are also not supported.
Yes, start a playlist or an album on your phone on a streaming app, and then you can control the songs (Next/Previous) from the vehicle display. Of course, cellular network is required if the music is not downloaded to your device.
No, it is not possible to view music lists (playlists, artists lists) on the display. However, you will be able to see the "Now Playing" song and to manage the songs (next/previous, play/pause) directly on the display. We therefore recommend to start a playlist or an album before your ride.
Phone
Yes, a notification will inform you of a call and you can accept or decline the call.
Please note that you can accept or decline a call while riding with the control module (Trail models only), but the vehicle will have to be stationary if you want to answer via the touchscreen.
No, only the person who has the helmet defined as "Driver Helmet" will hear the phone call.
Yes, the same information shown on the phone will appear on the display.
No, there is no access to text messages on the display.
