TIRE CHANGING

In the event of a flat tire, WHEEGO recommends using the WHEEGO Dealer network or 
an automotive services provider such as AAA because they have the proper equipment. 
Should  you  choose  to  change  the  tire  yourself,  you  need  to  observe  the  following 
precautions:

• Park the vehicle on a firm level surface, avoiding icy or slippery areas.
• Push the master disconnect button in to disable battery pack.
• Set the parking brake and block both the front and rear of the tire diagonally opposite  
     the  jacking position. For example, if the left front tire is being changed, block the right rear 
wheel. 
• Use a small floor-style jack or low-profile scissor jack such as the jack that was provided 
   with your vehicle.
• Jack the vehicle only from the side of the vehicle on the main frame rail or from the rear 
axle. 

WARNING

Getting under a jacked-up vehicle is dangerous. The vehicle could slip off of the jack and 
fall on you. Never get any part of your body under a vehicle that is on a jack. Never start 
or run the motor when the vehicle is on the jack. If you need to get under the vehicle, 
make sure the vehicle is first located on a flat solid surface and is supported securely by 
automotive jack stands of appropriate capacity or take the vehicle to a service center 
where a technician can put it on a hoist. 

WARNING

Jacking  at  any  location  other  than  a  proper  jacking  point  may  cause  major  vehicle  body 
damage.

FUSE BLOCK

The fuse block is located under the hood on the driver’s side next to the firewall. A sticker 
is attached to the inside of the fuse block cover that shows the function and amp rating 
of the fuses. Should one of the fuses need to be replaced, use a fuse of the same type 
and  amperage  rating.  The  use  of  a  fuse  with  a  rating  other  than  indicated  may  result 
in a dangerous electrical system overload. If a properly rated fuse continues to blow, it 
indicates a problem in the circuit that must be corrected.

KEY REPLACEMENT

To obtain an extra or replacement key for your vehicle, please contact WHEEGO customer 
service at 678-904-4795 ext 3. You will need to have your key code and VIN available 
when you call. Your local locksmith will not be able to provide a duplicate key.

CARE AND CLEANING

Windows and windshield glass can be cleaned using a liquid household glass cleaner. Do 
not use abrasive cleaners on the vehicle glass as it can cause scratches. On the interior vinyl 
panels use a clean damp cloth to remove dust and debris. The seats and carpet may be cleaned 
using an upholstery cleaner and a clean damp cloth. Test the cleaner in an inconspicuous 
area to insure compatibility with the vehicle’s interior before using on high visibility areas. 
 
The best way to preserve your vehicle’s exterior finish is to wash and wax the vehicle 
regularly. Use mild liquid detergents only (no strong soaps or chemical detergents) and 
rinse promptly. Dry the finish with a soft clean chamois or towel to avoid water scratches 
and water spotting. To avoid spotting, do not wash the vehicle in direct sunlight. 

CAUTION

Do not spray the interior of the vehicle. Water contact with the dash and instrument area 
could damage the gauges and the electrical system.
