OPERATION AND SERVICE INFORMATION

Owner’s Manual and Service Guide
Read all of Manual to become thoroughly familiar with this vehicle. Pay particular attention to all Notes, Cautions and Warnings
A vehicle requiring repair indicates the vehicle is no
longer functioning as designed and should be considered
potentially hazardous. Use extreme care when working
on any vehicle. When diagnosing, removing or replacing
any components that are not operating properly, consider
the safety of yourself and those around you, should the
component move unexpectedly.
Some components are heavy, spring loaded, highly cor-
rosive, explosive, may produce amperage or reach high
temperatures. Gasoline, carbon monoxide, battery acid
and hydrogen gas could result in serious bodily injury to
the technician/mechanic and bystanders if not treated
with utmost caution. Be careful not to place hands, face,
feet or body in a location that could expose them to injury
should an unforeseen dangerous situation occur.
To prevent personal injury or death, observe
the following:
Before working on the vehicle, remove all
jewelry (rings, watches, necklaces, etc.)
Be sure that no loose clothing or hair can
contact moving parts.
Use care not to touch hot objects.
Raise entire vehicle and support on jack
stands before attempting to run or adjust
powertrain.
Hydrogen gas is formed when charging bat-
teries. Do not charge battery without ade-
quate ventilation.
Do not permit open flame or anyone to
smoke in an area that is being used for
charging battery. A concentration of 4%
hydrogen gas or more is explosive.
Engine exhaust gas (carbon monoxide) is
deadly. Carbon monoxide is an odorless,
colorless gas that is formed as a natural
part of incomplete combustion of hydrocar-
bon fuels. Carbon monoxide is a dangerous
gas that can cause unconsciousness and is
potentially lethal.
The following are symptoms of carbon mon-
oxide inhalation:
• Dizziness
• Vomiting
• Intense headache
• Muscular twitching
• Weakness and sleepiness
• Throbbing in temples
If any of these symptoms are experienced,
get fresh air immediately. Never work
around or operate a vehicle in an environ-
ment that does not ventilate exhaust gases
from the area.
Neutral Lock
To prevent the driven clutch from turning the rear wheels
during service operations, a neutral lock is located under
the passenger side of the console panel (Ref Fig. 19 on
page 14). To operate, turn the key switch to ‘OFF’ and
raise the passenger seat. Place the direction selector in
the ‘F’ position. Reach under the passengers side of con-
sole panel and rotate the neutral lock lever clockwise
until it snaps into the slot in the direction selector bracket
as shown. Next, pull the direction selector handle to the
rear until it locks in place in the neutral position. When in
this position, the direction selector remains locked in the
neutral position. To activate the direction selector, pull the
neutral lock lever out of the slot and rotate counter-clock-
wise until it snaps into the detent position in the direction
selector bracket.
