SAFETY COMPONENTS

The vehicle electrical circuit includes two protective com-
ponents: a seat switch and a thermal circuit breaker.

Seat Switch

Removing body weight from the vehicle seat will cause
the seat switch to interrupt electrical power to the control-
ler. You must remain seated during vehicle operation.

Thermal Circuit Breaker

The thermal circuit breaker prevents overloading of the
drive motor. Should the vehicle be stopped by the open-
ing of the circuit breaker, turn the vehicle off to avoid an
accidental start when the breaker resets. The breaker
automatically resets after approximately 20 seconds. An
audible click will sound when the breaker resets.
If the circuit breaker continues to open, a problem exists
within the circuit or the vehicle is overloaded. Do not
operate the vehicle until the problem is resolved.
