FEATURES AND CONTROLS

Switches

Mode/Reverse Override Switch
This vehicle is equipped with a reverse speed limiter system. To gain

additional wheel speed while backing, release the throttle and depress

the override switch.

Pressing the override switch while the throttle is open can cause loss of control,

which may result in serious injury or death. Always release the throttle before

pressing the override switch.

The reverse override switch also acts as a MODE button when held

down for approximately one half second. The transmission cannot be in

reverse when using the override switch as a MODE button.

4X4 Switch
Use the 4X4 switch to engage ADC 4X4, 4X4 or 2X4. See page 30. The

vehicle automatically engages 4X4 when operating in reverse if the

switch is set to either 4X4 position.

Hazard Warning Switch

Push the hazard warning switch to cause all turn signal lights to

flash simultaneously. Use this feature to alert others of an emergency or

other situation requiring caution.
