SAFETY INFORMATION
This manual has been designed to assist in maintaining the vehicle in accordance with procedures developed by the
manufacturer. Adherence to these procedures and troubleshooting tips will ensure the best possible service from the
product. To reduce the chance of personal injury or property damage, the following must be carefully observed:
Certain replacement parts can be used independently and/or in combination with other accessories to modify an E-Z-
GO-manufactured vehicle to permit the vehicle to operate at or in excess of 20mph. When an E-Z-GO-manufactured
vehicle is modified in any way by the Distributor, Dealer or customer to operate at or in excess of 20mph, UNDER FED-
ERAL LAW the modified product will be a Low Speed Vehicle (LSV) subject to the strictures and requirements of Fed-
eral Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 571.500. In these instances, pursuant to Federal law the Distributor or Dealer
MUST equip the product with headlights, rear lights, turn signals, seat belts, top, horn and all other modifications for
LSV’s mandated in FMVSS 571.500, and affix a Vehicle Identification Number to the product in accordance with the
requirements of FMVSS 571.565. Pursuant to FMVSS 571.500, and in accordance with the State laws applicable in the
places of sale and use of the product, the Distributor, Dealer or customer modifying the vehicle also will be the Final
Vehicle Manufacturer for the LSV, and required to title or register the vehicle as mandated by State law.
E-Z-GO will NOT approve Distributor, Dealer or customer modifications converting E-Z-GO products into LSV’s.
The Company, in addition, recommends that all E-Z-GO products sold as personal transportation vehicles BE OPER-
ATED ONLY BY PERSONS WITH VALID DRIVERS LICENSES, AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE
REQUIREMENTS. This restriction is important to the SAFE USE AND OPERATION of the product. On behalf of E-Z-
GO, I am directing that E-Z-GO Branch personnel, Distributors and Dealers advise all customers to adhere to this
SAFETY RESTRICTION, in connection with the use of all products, new and used, the Distributor or Dealer has rea-
son to believe may be operated in personal transportation applications.
Information on FMVSS 571.500 can be obtained at Title 49 of the Code of Federal Regulations, section 571.500, or
through the Internet at the website for the U.S. Department of Transportation - at Dockets and Regulation, then to Title
49 of the Code of Federal Regulations (Transportation).
GENERAL
Many vehicles are used for a variety of tasks beyond the original intended use of the vehicle; therefore, it is impossible
to anticipate and warn against every possible combination of circumstances that may occur. No warnings can take the
place of good common sense and prudent driving practices.
Good common sense and prudent driving practices do more to prevent accidents and injury than all of the warnings
and instructions combined. The manufacturer strongly suggests that all users and maintenance personnel read this
entire manual paying particular attention to the CAUTIONS and WARNINGS contained therein.
If you have any questions regarding this vehicle, contact your closest representative or write to the address on the back
cover of this publication, Attention: Product Service Department.
The manufacturer reserves the right to make design changes without obligation to make these changes on units previ-
ously sold and the information contained in this manual is subject to change without notice.
The manufacturer is not liable for errors in this manual or for incidental or consequential damages that result from the
use of the material in this manual.
This vehicle conforms to the current applicable standard(s) for safety and performance requirements.
