Towing
CAUTION
• 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 vehicle
comes to a complete stop.
PARKING AND LEAVING THE VEHICLE
1. After stopping the vehicle, firmly press the park brake pedal until it locks and prevents the vehicle from rolling.
See following NOTE.
NOTE: Vehicles equipped with lights: On early 2009 model gasoline vehicles, after the park brake is engaged, the
brake lights may remain illuminated for up to four minutes.
2. Turn the key switch to the OFF position and place the Forward/Reverse handle or switch in the NEUTRAL
position. Remove the key when the vehicle is not in use. For gasoline vehicles, also turn off the fuel shut-off
valve
(Figure 24) .
3. Electric vehicles only: When the Tow/Run switch is in the RUN position, (with the Forward/Reverse switch or
key switch in any position), the walk away braking function will prevent the vehicle from rolling at more than 1 to 3
mph (1.5 to 4.8 km/h) unless the accelerator is pressed. This prevents the possibility of a parked vehicle (with
the park brake disengaged) rolling away too fast to be overtaken on foot.
TOWING
WARNING
• Do not tow the vehicle on public streets or highways.
• Use only approved Club Car tow bars.
• Turn the key switch to OFF and place the Forward/Reverse handle or switch in the NEUTRAL position
before towing the vehicle.
• Electric vehicles only: Place the Tow/Run switch in the TOW position; otherwise, the vehicle will
not roll while being towed.
• Extreme caution should be used when towing any vehicle.
• Do not exceed 5 mph (8 km/h) towing speed.
• Do not allow people in the vehicles being towed.
• Avoid sudden starts, sudden stops, and tight turns when towing.
• Avoid stopping on a hill when towing. If you must stop on a hill, avoid sudden starts or rolling
backwards and stopping suddenly. Failure to heed this warning could cause the vehicle to overturn,
possibly resulting in severe personal injury.
• Do not tow more than one Club Car vehicle with another Club Car vehicle. If more than one vehicle
must be towed, an adequately powered vehicle (tractor or full sized truck) properly fitted, with a tow
hitch height of 11 inches (28 cm) should be used. Only heavy-duty tow bars should be used for
multi-vehicle towing. Never tow more than five vehicles at one time.
• Gasoline vehicles only: Turn the fuel shut-off valve to closed (OFF) position (Figure 24).
A light duty tow bar is available for break-down towing and single vehicle towing. A heavy duty tow bar and an onboard
tow bar are available for multi-vehicle towing. Observe all of the previous WARNING statements when towing.
