your driving habits (and the terrain) are affecting the draw on the batteries, which affects
your driving range. There are 5 lights on the meter, and they are in sequence: red, yellow,
green, green, green. When the indicator light is red, there is the most drain on the battery
pack. Alternately, 3 greens lit at the same time means that you are driving in a fashion
that is very economical on the battery pack.
CAUTION
Electrical wiring, circuit boards, and components are located under and behind the upper
and lower dash. Liquids can damage electrical components and the circuit board. Handle
liquids with care. Do not spray water directly into the dash.
KEY SWITCH
When the key is turned clockwise to the first “ACC” position the
accessory circuits will be on (radio, lights, etc.). When the key
is turned to the second “ON” position the Battery Discharge
Indicator and Eco-Meter will activate and the car can then be
driven. There is no audible sound when the car is on. If the key is
in the “ON” position and a buzzer sounds, then one of the doors is
probably not completely closed. Close the doors and the buzzer
should stop.
CAUTION
Do not leave the key in the “ON” position when not in use. Doing so will discharge the
batteries.
CAUTION
Never turn the key to the “OFF” position while the vehicle is in motion. This could
lead to loss of speed and loss of control of the vehicle. This can cause a
serious accident.
FOG LIGHTS
Below the steering column to the left are 2 switches. The one on the right is the switch
for the Front Fog Lights. When the taillights or headlights are turned on, pressing this
switch will activate the fog lights. The left switch is non-functional.

airflow and counterclockwise to decrease airflow. If the vehicle is equipped with Air
Conditioning, after selecting the volume of air you desire by clicking the center knob,
you may press the center knob to turn on the AC compressor.
