3.3 VEHICLE CONTROLS
This section describes the operating controls of the vehicle. Figure 3.3.1 identifies many of these controls.
Your vehicle may not be equipped with each of these controls.
3.3.1.A POWER KEY SWITCH
With the power key switch in “OFF” position, the traction system is powered down. This conserves battery
energy by reducing the power draw when vehicle is not in use. Turning the power key switch to OFF is
highly recommended whenever vehicle is not in use. Always remove the key from the key switch when
leaving the vehicle to prevent unauthorized use. When the direction selector is in the vertical position,
the vehicle’s drive system is turned OFF or in neutral. If accelerator is pressed with selector in neutral (N),
the System LED (I) will flash twice indicating the unit can not move until a direction is selected. If this
occurs, release accelerator pedal and select either forward (F) or reverse (R).
3.3.1.B DIRECTION SELECTOR
Turn direction selector to the right from vertical position to move the vehicle in forward direction. Turn
direction selector to the left from vertical position to move the vehicle in reverse direction. A warning
alarm sounds when in reverse
.
3.3.1.C HIGH / LOW SPEED SWITCH (OPTIONAL)
This switch is a two-position toggle switch. The up position (rabbit) is for high speed and allows the vehicle
to reach full speed. The down position (turtle) is a lower maximum speed and is recommended for
inexperienced operators or for steep grades and/or off road in rough terrain. This switch is not in
operation when the vehicle is in reverse
.
3.3.1.D LIGHT SWITCH
Move switch up to activate headlights and taillights, down to turn off
