or stop the vehicle, depress the brake pedal with your right foot (Figure 6, Page 11).
PARK BRAKE PEDAL
The park brake pedal is the small raised portion in the upper left corner of the brake pedal. It has the word

(Figure 6, Page 11). See following WARNING.
BATTERY WARNING LIGHT
PowerDrive System 48 vehicles feature a dash mounted warning light (above steering column) that, when
the vehicle is in operation, indicates low battery voltage, or, when the vehicle is being charged, indicates a
charging problem. The battery warning light is controlled by the PowerDrive onboard computer.
When the vehicle is in operation, the warning light will illuminate and remain illuminated if:
• Batteries voltage drops below 48 when there is no load on the batteries (the vehicle is stopped and
there are no accessories on).
• Batteries have discharged to less than 25% of rated capacity.
If the warning light illuminates when the vehicle is operating, there will be enough power remaining to drive
the vehicle for approximately 30 minutes. However, the vehicle should be charged at the first opportunity. If
the warning light illuminates and the vehicle is unable to operate for 30 minutes, have your Club Car distribu-
tor/dealer check the vehicle for a possible battery or electrical system problem.
When the batteries receive an incomplete charge because 1) the DC power cord is disconnected, 2) AC
power to the charger is interrupted, 3) automatic charger shut-off occurs after 16 hours of operation, or 4) the
charger malfunctions, the warning light will indicate as follows:
Figure 6 Brake Pedal Figure 7 Park Brake
• THE PARK BRAKE WILL RELEASE AUTOMATICALLY WHEN EITHER THE ACCELERATOR OR
BRAKE PEDAL IS DEPRESSED. THE PARK BRAKE HAS MULTIPLE LOCKING POSITIONS AND
SHOULD BE FIRMLY PRESSED AND LOCKED TO PREVENT THE VEHICLE FROM ROLLING.
