1998 Ranger EV New Model Training
LESSON 2: VEHICLE OPERATION
•
The instrument cluster has several new gauges and warning lamps
(covered later in this lesson).
•
When the driver key is turned to the START position, there is no
starter motor noise (although the vehicle is activated).
•
The Electric Ranger "creeps" forward like a gasoline-powered
vehicle with an automatic transmission that is in gear (after the
vehicle is "started" and the key remains in the ON position foot
off brake).
•
During deceleration, a higher drag is felt due to the regenerative
braking system (covered later in this lesson).
