WARNING
• If renting or loaning the vehicle, make sure the driver is familiar with all controls and operating
procedures before allowing the vehicle to be driven.
• Do not shift the Forward/Reverse handle while the vehicle is moving. To avoid injury to an
unsuspecting passenger or damage to the vehicle, always bring the vehicle to a full stop before
shifting the Forward/Reverse handle.
• Release the accelerator pedal and then press the brake pedal firmly until the vehicle stops. 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.
• Do not tamper with the governor. 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 speed.

The key switch is mounted on the dash to the right of the steering column (Figure 6). It has two positions, OFF and
ON, which are clearly labeled. See following NOTE.
NOTE: The key can be removed only when the key switch is in the OFF position.

handle towards the driver (FORWARD) to operate the vehicle in the forward direction, or towards the passenger
(REVERSE) to operate the vehicle in reverse. When the handle is in the straight up position, (NEUTRAL), the vehicle
will not operate. The engine will stop if it is shifted to this position during operation. Club Car vehicles operate at
