Read all of this manual to become thoroughly familiar with this vehicle. Pay particular attention to all Notices, Cautions, Warnings, and Dangers.
ation resumes. Any unusual situation sensed by the TruCourse Technology system will cause a similar response.
The system functions in all key switch positions.

Anti-Roll Back Feature

Anti-Roll Back, like Walk-Away, limits backward motion of the vehicle down an incline to less than 2 mph (3 kph). See
'Walk-Away Feature' above.

Anti-Stall Feature

Anti-Stall protection prevents motor damage from stalling the vehicle against an object or on a hill.
Example: If all of the following events occur.
a) the system senses that the accelerator pedal is pressed (power applied to motor)
b) the motor is stalled long enough that any more time may cause motor damage
the TruCourse Technology system will momentarily interrupt power to the motor. This brief interruption will permit the
car to roll backwards slightly before again stopping in the stalled condition. This process will repeat itself periodically
until the car is moved from the stalled condition.
Example: If all of the following events occur.
a) the system senses that the accelerator pedal is pressed (power applied to motor)
b) the brake is engaged so as to prevent vehicle motion
the TruCourse Technology system will sense a stalled motor condition and remove power from the motor. When the
brake pedal is released, the car will roll backwards slightly before power is returned to the motor.

High Pedal Disable Feature

High pedal disable prevents undesired acceleration if the direction selector lever is changed, or the key is turned on
while the accelerator is pressed.

Diagnostic Mode Feature

Diagnostic mode eases troubleshooting.
In the unlikely event of certain electrical system failures, the TruCourse Technology controller will default to a mode
that will permit the vehicle to operate, but at a very reduced speed.
This feature allows the vehicle to be driven back to its storage facility where the problem can be diagnosed.
The controller can be put in diagnostic mode by the technician and the controller will report the failure mode.

STARTING AND DRIVING

To reduce the possibility of roll - back which could result in severe injury or vehicle damage, do
not release the service brake until motor has started.
All vehicles are equipped with an interlock system that disables the controller and prevents the vehicle from being
operated or towed while the charger is connected. Remove the charger plug from the vehicle receptacle and prop-
erly store the cable prior to moving the vehicle.
To operate the vehicle:
• Apply the service brake, place the key in the key switch and turn it to the 'ON'/'N' position.
• Move the direction selector to the direction desired.
• Release the park brake by pressing the service brake pedal until the park brake releases.
• Slowly press the accelerator pedal to start the motor.
