Owner’s Guide
Do not drive fast downhill. Sudden stops or change of direction can cause a loss of control. Use
the brake to control the speed of the vehicle when you drive down a slope.
To prevent loss of control, do not move the direction selector while the vehicle is in motion. If you
move the selector, the speed will immediately decrease and a warning device activates.
Decrease speed before and during turns.
Do not drive the vehicle up, down, or across a slope that is more than 14° (25% grade).
See GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS for the vehicle load and seat capacity.
When the accelerator pedal is pressed, the foot-operated parking brake releases and can cause
accidental or sudden vehicle movement. When the vehicle is parked, make sure the key is in the
OFF position.
When you leave the vehicle, turn the key to the OFF position and remove from the switch to pre-
vent accidental operation.
Make sure the direction selector is in correct position before you press the accelerator pedal.
Make sure you completely stop the vehicle before you move the direction selector to a different
position.
Do not take vehicle out of gear while in motion.
Before you drive in the reverse direction, make sure the area behind the vehicle is clear.
Driver and passengers must stay in their seats while the vehicle is in motion.
Always keep feet, legs, hands and arms inside vehicle while in motion.
Key and Headlight Switch Operation
When you leave the vehicle, turn the key to the OFF position
and remove from the switch to prevent accidental operation.
To prevent possible damage to the components, stop the vehicle before you move the key switch or the direc-
tion selector to a different position.
Turn the key to the right to enable the electrical system of the vehicle. The first stop is ON and supplies power that allows
you to drive the vehicle. The second stop has a light icon and activates the lights.
When you leave the vehicle, turn the key to the OFF position and remove the key from the switch.
If the vehicle has accessories that were installed at the factory, some accessories continue to operate with the key
switch in the OFF position.
