General Information; Model Identification; Controls And Indicators - Club Car XRT 1500 2005 Owner's Manual

GENERAL INFORMATION

This manual is designed to include information on both the gasoline and diesel XRT 1500 vehicles. Both are
key-start vehicles. The vehicles start and operate similar to an automobile. Each has a feature that allows the
engine to run at idle or advanced RPM using the accelerator pedal when the Forward/Reverse handle is in the
NEUTRAL position.
All operating procedures, maintenance, and regular servicing are identical to both vehicles unless otherwise
noted. If any of these differ between vehicles, it will be noted for that specific procedure.

MODEL IDENTIFICATION

The serial number of each vehicle is printed on a bar code decal mounted on the frame directly above the
accelerator pedal (Example: GC0501-123456) (Figure 3). There is also a second serial number decal
mounted on the rear body frame behind the fuel tank. The fuel tank must be removed to view this decal. See
following NOTE.
NOTE: Have the vehicle serial number available when ordering parts or making inquiries.

WARNING
• Before allowing anyone to drive the vehicle, make sure the driver is familiar with all controls
and operating procedures.
• Do not tamper with the governor on the gasoline vehicle or the high idle speed setting on the
diesel vehicle. Doing so will void the warranty, as well as damage the engine and other
components, and could result in property damage, personal injury, or death due to unsafe
speeds.
• Do not shift the Forward/Reverse handle while the vehicle is in motion.
• Engine must be at idle before shifting the Forward/Reverse handle. Failure to do so may result
in injury to inattentive passengers and (or) damage to the vehicle.
• To avoid unintentionally starting or rolling the vehicle, set the park brake, place the Forward/
Reverse handle in the NEUTRAL position, turn the key switch to the OFF position, and remove
the key when leaving the vehicle.
