Driving Instructions
STARTING THE VEHICLE

Study and understand controls.

Make sure everyone is seated and holding onto seat handles or handrails.
3.
Read safety and information decals located on the vehicle.
4.
Make sure wheels are turned in desired direction.
5.
Turn the key to the ON position and make sure nothing is in your path.
6.
Select direction by placing Forward/Reverse handle or switch in desired position (F = forward or R = reverse). A
buzzer will sound as a warning when the Forward/Reverse handle or switch is in the REVERSE position.
7.
Slowly press accelerator pedal. The park brake will release automatically and the vehicle will start to move. As
the accelerator pedal is pressed, speed will increase until full speed is reached.
See following WARNINGS.
WARNING
• Operator must control vehicle speed when going downhill.
Electric vehicles:
• Pedal down or pedal up motor braking may be used to help control speed when going downhill;
however, steep terrain or other conditions will require that pedal braking be used in conjunction with
motor braking.
• When batteries are fully charged, a warning buzzer will sound during motor braking to alert the driver
that motor braking is operating at a reduced level of performance. When this occurs, use the brake
pedal to control vehicle speed.
STOPPING THE VEHICLE
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.
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 vehicles originally built in 2008 or earlier, 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.
