Owner’s Guide
Brake / Park Brake Pedal Operation
The brake pedal is a combination brake and park brake. Depress the lower
part of the pedal to slow or stop the vehicle.
To engage the park brake, apply pressure to the upper section of the pedal
until it locks into place. Release by pressing the lower part of the pedal.
Accelerator Pedal Operation
Unintentional movement of the accelerator pedal may
cause the vehicle to move unexpectedly, which could
result in severe injury or death.
When the key switch is in the ‘ON’ position, depressing the accelerator pedal starts the motor and accelerates the vehi-
cle. When the pedal is released, the motor will stop. To stop the vehicle more quickly, depress the brake pedal.
If key switch is ‘ON’ and the park brake is engaged, inadvertently depressing the accelerator will release the park brake
causing the vehicle to move, which could cause severe injury or death. Depressing the accelerator pedal will release the
park brake if it is engaged. This is a feature to ensure the vehicle is not driven with the park brake engaged; however it is
not the preferred method of releasing the park brake.
Key / Light Switch Operation
To reduce the possibility of component damage, the vehicle must be stopped before moving the key switch or
the direction selector.
The combination key / light switch has three positions, OFF, ON and LIGHTS.
To prevent inadvertent operation of the vehicle when left unattended, the key
should be turned to the ‘OFF’ position and removed from the switch.
If the vehicle is equipped with factory installed accessories, some accesso-
ries remain operational with the key in the ‘OFF’ position.
Direction Selector Operation
To prevent loss of vehicle control, do not move direction
selector while the vehicle is in motion. Moving the selector
while vehicle is in motion will result in sudden slowing of the
vehicle, and the beeping of a warning device.
Move direction selector to ‘F’ to accelerate in forward direction; move to ‘R’
to accelerate in reverse direction. When leaving vehicle unattended, place
direction selector in ‘N’ (neutral) position, engage park brake and remove
key from switch.
A reverse warning buzzer activates when direction selector is moved to the ‘R’ position.
