CONTROLS AND INDICATORS
See General Warnings on page 9.
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 or switch 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 or switch.
• 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 or switch in the NEUTRAL position, turn the key switch to the OFF position, and remove the
key when leaving the vehicle.
• Gasoline vehicles only: 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 speeds.
