OPERATING PROCEDURES
Read all of SAFETY and this section before attempting any procedure. Pay particular attention to Notices, Cautions, Warnings and Dangers.
Owner’s Guide
Driver and passengers must stay in their seats while the vehicle is in motion.
Always keep feet, legs, hands and arms inside vehicle while in motion.
Incorrect and irresponsible operation of this vehicle can cause dangerous conditions for the operator, passengers and
other people in the area. Do not allow children or anyone without a license to operate the vehicle. Children may not have
the skill and ability to make good decisions or strength to operate the vehicle.
Drugs and alcohol decrease the ability of the driver to operate the vehicle safely. Always check with a medical profes-
sional before you operate the vehicle.
When you drive the vehicle at full speed on a dirt road, loose surface or wet grass, the necessary distance to stop the
vehicle will increase. The necessary distance to stop a loaded vehicle is more than the necessary distance to stop a vehi-
cle without a load. In wet weather conditions, apply light pressure to the brakes to supply enough friction to dry the brake
unit. Wet brakes lose much of their effect.
If you drive on a steep hill and can not get enough traction,
do not try to turn around on the hill.
Slowly drive in the
reverse direction and use the brake to control the speed.
Key and Light Switch Operation
When you leave the vehicle, turn the key to the OFF position and remove from the switch to pre-
vent accidental operation.
To prevent possible damage to the components, stop the vehicle before you move the key switch or the direc-
tion selector to a different position.
Turn the key to the right to enable the electrical system of the vehicle. The first stop is ON and supplies power that allows
you to drive the vehicle. The second stop has a light icon and activates the lights.
When you leave the vehicle, turn the key to the OFF position and remove the key from the switch.
If the vehicle has accessories that were installed at the factory, some acces-
sories continue to operate with the key switch in the OFF position.
