Parking Brake
The parking brake is a small plate at the top of the brake
pedal (Fig. 3). Whenever you stop the vehicle, engage the
parking brake to prevent accidental movement of the
vehicle. To engage the parking brake, step on the brake
pedal firmly and roll forward with the top of your foot. To
disengage, press the accelerator or brake pedal. If the
vehicle is parked on a steep grade, apply the parking brake
and place blocks on the downhill side of the wheels.
On/Off Switch
The On/Off switch (Fig. 4), used to activate the electrical
systems of the vehicle, has two positions: Off and On.
Rotate the key clockwise to the On position to allow
operation of the vehicle and accessories. After stopping the
vehicle, rotate the key counterclockwise to the Off position.
Remove the key before leaving the vehicle.

Battery/Hour Meter
The battery/hour meter provides you with an indication of
how much charge is contained in the batteries (Fig. 4 and 8)
and the number of operating hours on the vehicle. The
battery meter is located at the top of the LCD screen.
When the vehicle batteries are fully charged, ten bars
extend from the 0 to the 1 position. As the charge is used,
bars disappear starting on the right side. For detailed
information on the battery meter, refer to Understanding
and Using the Battery System; page 15.
The hour meter is located at the bottom of the LCD screen.
It logs operating hours whenever the key is in the On
position and the vehicle is in motion.
