WARNING
• If battery wire terminals are damaged or corroded, they should be replaced or cleaned as
necessary. Failure to do so may cause them to overheat during operation and could result in
fire, property damage, or personal injury.
Be sure battery clamp is properly tightened. Tighten to 12 ft-lb (16 N·m). A loose clamp may allow the battery
to become damaged from vibration or jarring.
If battery appears weak, have it charged by a trained technician. The battery should never be left discharged
any longer than absolutely necessary (do not leave discharged overnight).
CLEANING THE VEHICLE
The vehicle is equipped with an ABS/DR acrylic front body, an all-aluminum rear body, and a powder-coated
steel cargo bed. Use a commercially available automotive cleaning solution with a sponge or soft cloth for nor-
mal cleaning. A garden hose at normal residential water pressure is adequate. To remove oxidation or discol-
oration from aluminum, use a commercially available aluminum cleaner paste and fine grade (No. 00) steel
wool.
Club Car does not recommend any type of pressure washing or steam cleaning. Such a process will expose
electrical components to moisture. Moisture entering electrical components can result in water damage and
subsequent component failure.
Use non-abrasive wax products. Battery acid, fertilizers, tars, asphalt, creosote, paint, or chewing gum should
be removed immediately to prevent possible stains.
The front body is made of an ABS/DR acrylic material similar to the material used to manufacture hot tubs and
shower/tub units. Cleaning and repair techniques for the front body are the same as those used on conven-
tional acrylic sheet. Repair kits, cleaning and polishing products may be purchased at any hardware store
where ABS/DR acrylic (hot tubs and shower/tub units) are sold.
The seats of the vehicle will last longer with proper cleaning. Use a solution of 10% liquid soap and warm
water applied with a soft cloth. For imbedded dirt, a soft bristle brush may be used. For heavy soiling, difficult
stains, or scratches, blemishes, or other body damage, see Section 4 of the maintenance and service man-
ual.
See following NOTE.
NOTE:
Dispose of waste water properly.
