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
Thank you for purchasing this vehicle. Before driving the
vehicle, we ask you to spend some time reading this
Owner’s Manual and Service Guide. This guide contains
the information that will assist you in maintaining this
highly reliable vehicle. Some illustrations may show
items that are optional for your vehicle. This guide covers
the operation of several vehicles; therefore, some picto-
rial views may not represent your vehicle. Physical differ-
ences in controls will be illustrated.
This vehicle has been designed and manufactured as a
‘World Vehicle’. Some countries have individual require-
ments to comply with their specifications; therefore,
some sections may not apply in your country.
Most of the service procedures in this guide can be
accomplished using common automotive hand tools.
Contact your service representative on servicing the
vehicle in accordance with the Periodic Service Sched-
ule.
Service Parts Manuals and Technician’s Repair and Ser-
vice Manuals are available from a local Distributor, an
authorized Branch or the Service Parts Department.
When ordering parts or requesting information for your
vehicle, provide vehicle model, serial number and manu-
facture date code.
BEFORE INITIAL USE
Read, understand and follow the safety label on the
instrument panel. Be sure you understand how to oper-
ate the vehicle, its equipment and how to use it safely.
Maintaining good performance depends to a large extent
on the operator.
Hydrogen gas is generated as a natural part of
the lead acid battery charging process. A 4%
concentration of hydrogen gas is explosive and
could cause severe injury or death. Charging
must take place in an area that is adequately
ventilated (minimum of 5 air exchanges per
hour).
To reduce the chance of battery explosion that
could result in severe injury or death, never
smoke around or charge batteries in an area
that has open flame or electrical equipment that
could cause an electrical arc.
Hydrogen gas is generated in the charging cycle of bat-
teries and is explosive in concentrations as low as 4%.
Because hydrogen gas is lighter than air, it will collect in
the ceiling of buildings necessitating proper ventilation.
Five air exchanges per hour is considered the minimum
requirement.
Never charge a vehicle in an area that is subject to flame
or spark. Pay particular attention to natural gas or pro-
pane water heaters and furnaces.
Before a new vehicle is put into operation, the items
shown in the INITIAL SERVICE CHART must be per-
formed (Ref Fig. 1 on page 1).
Vehicle batteries must be fully charged before initial use.
Check for correct tire inflation. See GENERAL SPECIFI-
CATIONS.
Determine and record braking distance required to stop
vehicle for future brake performance tests.
Remove the protective clear plastic, that protect the seat
bottom and back rest during shipping, before placing the
vehicle in service.

PORTABLE CHARGER INSTALLATION
To reduce the possibility of overheating that
may cause serious damage to the charger and
create the potential for fire, do not block or
obstruct the airways. Portable chargers must
be mounted on a platform above the ground or
in such a manner as to permit the maximum air
flow underneath and around the charger.
