In response to user demand, SmartSwitch brings one-touch starting, real-time feedback and keyless security to Husqvarna’s line of riding mowers and zero turns. Rather than worrying about keeping up with another key, users simply enter a programmable code in the SmartSwitch display. This eliminates the potential for dead batteries caused by keys left in the “on” position, as the system automatically shuts down after a period of inactivity. The built-in intelligence of SmartSwitch also makes the starting procedure easy, with lit indicators for items like “apply park brake or “disengage cutting blades.” The prominent start/stop button offers additional direction with colors like green, red or blue to indicate ready to go, enter code or fault indication. Forgot to activate the mow in reverse before backing up? No problem, the system will automatically shut off the cutting deck while leaving the engines running. The standard headlights also feature the convenience of programmed automatic shut off modes.
