Emergency Engine Kill Switch. When activated,
the Emergency Kill Switch will immediately stop
the engine.
The emergency engine kill Switch should

or sound that may indicate an overloaded
electrical circuit. If any of the above occurs,
immediately and safely pull to the side of the

turn the ignition switch OFF and exit the vehicle.
Do not reengage the switch until the vehicle
has been inspected by a qualified technician.
The emergency engine kill Switch should only be activated if the vehicle must be immediately
stopped. Do not use the switch when only parking the vehicle.
The location of the switch will vary depending on vehicle configuration. The
switch is a large red knob located within reach of the driver. See the illustration
to the left for a typical kill switch knob.

WARNING
Unless in an emergency, do not activate
the emergency engine kill Switch while
the vehicle is in motion.
This vehicle is equipped with power
hydraulic steering and power hydraulic
assist brakes. If turned off, the steering

be diminished required much more foot
pedal pressure to apply the brakes. This
will increase distance required to stop
and may result in collision and severe
bodily injury.
