KEY SWITCH
The key switch is mounted on the dash to the right of the steering column (
). It has two positions,
OFF and ON, which are clearly labeled.
See following NOTE.
NOTE: The key can be removed only when the key switch is in the OFF position.
FORWARD/REVERSE CONTROL
The Forward/Reverse handle is located on the seat support panel, below and to the right of the driver’s right
knee
. The handle has three distinct positions: F (FORWARD), N (NEUTRAL), and R
(REVERSE). Rotate the handle towards the driver (FORWARD) to operate the vehicle in the forward direc-
tion, or towards the passenger (REVERSE) to operate the vehicle in reverse. When the handle is in the
straight up position, (NEUTRAL), the vehicle will not operate. The engine will stop if it is shifted to this position
during operation. 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.
ACCELERATOR PEDAL
The accelerator pedal is the pedal on the right, with the word GO molded into it
. The operation of
the accelerator pedal differs from that of an automobile. When the key switch is in the ON position, and the
Forward/Reverse handle is in either the FORWARD or REVERSE position, pressing the accelerator pedal will
automatically release the park brake and start the vehicle moving in the direction selected (forward or
reverse). As the accelerator pedal is pressed, speed will increase until full speed is reached. When the accel-
erator is released, power will be cut off and the motor will stop running.
