B. INTRODUCTION TO SAFE OWNERSHIP OF WHEEGO ELECTRIC VEHICLES
WHEEGO battery-electric vehicles are different from vehicles you might be accustomed to
driving. Special precautions should be followed when owning and operating a WHEEGO.
Please pay particular attention to the cautions and warnings in this manual as well as
those placed as notices on the vehicle in various locations. Electric cars provide a great
amount of torque when the accelerator is pressed. This may cause the car to spin its tires
particularly on wet or slippery pavement.
Specific to WHEEGO models, the following safe habits should always be followed:
• Safety belts should always be worn by all occupants while the vehicle is in operation.
• WHEEGO battery-electric vehicles should be recharged from a standard 120VAC 15amp
electrical outlet or an approved 240VAC Charging Station. Charging from a circuit of
lesser capacity and/or using a cord from an outlet to the WHEEGO that is not sufficient in
wire gauge could create a fire hazard. Please consult this manual for the proper extension
cord gauge and length.
• The lithium battery pack is what you charge and provides the “energy” to the WHEEGO
electric drive system. The voltage in a WHEEGO battery pack is sufficient to cause
death by electrocution. For this reason, no one should EVER attempt to do any
maintenance or repair work on their WHEEGO electric drive system, including the
battery pack, unless they have had special training or are authorized by WHEEGO to do so.
• Please read, understand and abide by the above safety precautions for years of safe
operation and enjoyment of your WHEEGO.
