WARNING
• Operator must control vehicle speed when going downhill.
• PowerDrive Plus and IQ System vehicles only: “Pedal down” or “pedal up” motor braking may
be used to help control speed when going downhill; however, steep terrain or other
conditions may require that pedal braking be used in conjunction with motor braking.
STOPPING THE VEHICLE
ý
WARNING
• Driving through water may affect the brakes. After driving through water, check effectiveness
of the brakes by gently pressing the brake pedal. If the vehicle does not slow down at the
normal rate, continue to press the brake pedal until the brakes dry out and normal
performance returns.
ý
CAUT ION
• When stopped on a hill, use the brake pedal to hold your position. Do not use the accelerator
pedal to hold position.
To stop the vehicle, release the accelerator pedal and press the brake pedal with your right foot until the vehi-
cle comes to a complete stop.
PARKING AND LEAVING THE VEHICLE
1. After stopping the vehicle, firmly press the park brake pedal until it locks. This will prevent the vehicle
from rolling.
2. Turn the key switch to the OFF position and place the Forward/Reverse handle or switch in the NEU-
TRAL position. Remove the key when the vehicle is not in use.
3.
PowerDrive Plus and IQ System vehicles:
When the Tow/Run switch is in the RUN position, (with the
Forward/Reverse switch or key switch in any position), the zero speed detect function will prevent the
vehicle from rolling at more than 1 or 3 mph (1.5 or 4.8 km/h) unless the accelerator is pressed. This pre-
vents the possibility of a parked vehicle (with the park brake disengaged) rolling away too fast to be over-
taken on foot.
See Zero Speed Detect on page 17.
