The Forward/Reverse rocker switch is located on the seat support panel, below and to the right of the driver’s right
knee. The
F (FORWARD) and R (REVERSE) positions are clearly marked. Push down the FORWARD side of the
switch to operate the vehicle in the forward direction, or push down the REVERSE side of the switch to operate the
vehicle in reverse. When the rocker switch is positioned in the NEUTRAL position, with neither side down, the vehicle
will not operate if the accelerator pedal is pressed
(Figure 9) . The reverse buzzer will sound as a warning when the
Forward/Reverse switch is in the REVERSE position.
Gasoline Vehicles
The Forward/Reverse handle is located on the seat support panel, below and to the right of the driver’s right knee
(Figure 8) . The Forward/Reverse handle has three distinct positions: F (FORWARD), R (REVERSE), and N
(NEUTRAL). Rotate the handle towards the driver (FORWARD) to operate the vehicle in the forward direction, or
towards the passenger (REVERSE) to operate vehicle in reverse. When the handle is in the straight up position
(NEUTRAL), the vehicle will not operate. Club Car vehicles operate at reduced speed in reverse. The reverse buzzer
will sound as a warning when the Forward/Reverse handle is in the REVERSE position.
