Controls and Indicators
CAUTION
• Failure to add oil immediately when the low oil warning light stays on may result in permanent
engine damage.
FUEL GAUGE/HOUR METER
The fuel gauge and hour meter (8) are housed together on the right side of the instrument panel (Figure 13 and
Figure 14). The fuel gauge operates when the key switch is in the ON position and allows the operator to monitor
the fuel level in the vehicle. The hour meter operates only when the engine is running, and should be used by the
trained technician to track vehicle usage and determine when periodic service procedures are required. See Periodic
Service Schedule on page 39.
HEADLIGHT CONTROL
The headlight control (12) is located on the left side of the instrument panel (Figure 13 and Figure 14). Press the
headlight rocker switch to turn the headlights on or off. See following NOTE.
NOTE: Using the headlights for extended periods while the engine is either off or idling will discharge the battery.
ELECTRIC BED LIFT
Vehicles with Electric Bed Lift Option
The electric bed lift switch (13) is located on the instrument panel to the left of the key switch (Figure 13 and Figure
14). See following NOTE.
NOTE: Remove cargo (including accessories) before raising the bed.
To lift the bed, push up and hold the rocker switch in the upper position. Release the switch to stop the lifting operation.
To close the bed, press down and hold the switch in the lower position. The bed lift will make a loud clicking sound to
signal that the bed is in the rest position.
HIGH-TEMPERATURE WARNING LIGHT (DIESEL VEHICLES ONLY)
The high-temperature warning light (10) is located on the instrument panel to the left of the steering column, next to the
low oil warning light (9) (Figure 14, Page 21). The diesel engine is liquid-cooled; if the engine coolant has exceeded its
normal safe operating temperature, the warning light will illuminate. If the warning light lights up, stop the vehicle and
allow it to idle for approximately five minutes before stopping the engine. Contact a Club Car dealer/distributor or a
trained technician. See following WARNING.
WARNING
• Allow the engine to cool before servicing the engine coolant system. Engine coolant can cause
severe burns.
