Driving Instructions - Club Car Precedent Owner's Manual

• Forward/Reverse switch: Check for proper operation. See Controls and Indicators – Gasoline Vehicles
on page 14.
• Brakes: Be sure the brakes function properly. When brake pedal is pressed using moderate pressure, the
vehicle should come to a smooth, straight stop. If the vehicle swerves or fails to stop, stops abruptly, or makes
a grinding or squeaking noise, have the brake system checked and adjusted as required. Continued, moderate
brake pedal pressure should be able to lock the wheels, but using lesser pressure should also permit a slow,
gradual deceleration.
• Park brake: When latched, the park brake should lock the wheels and hold the vehicle stationary (on an incline of
20% or less). It should release when either the accelerator or brake pedal is pressed.
• Reverse buzzer: The reverse buzzer will sound as a warning when the Forward/Reverse handle or switch is in
the REVERSE position.
• Steering: The vehicle should be easy to steer and should not have any play in the steering wheel.
• General: Listen for any unusual noises such as squeaks or rattles. Check the vehicle's ride and performance.
Have a Club Car distributor/dealer or a trained technician investigate anything unusual.
• Accelerator: With the key switch in the ON position and the Forward/Reverse switch in the FORWARD position,
as the accelerator pedal is pressed, the engine should start and the vehicle should accelerate smoothly to
full speed. When the pedal is released it should return to the original position. All Club Car vehicles operate at
reduced speed in reverse.
• Governor: Check maximum speed of the vehicle. The vehicle should operate at 12-15 mph (19-24 km/h) on a
level surface.
