GENERAL WARNINGS
The following safety statements must be heeded whenever the vehicle is being operated, repaired, or serviced. Other
specific safety statements appear throughout this manual and on the vehicle.
DANGER
• Battery – Explosive gases! Do not smoke. Keep sparks and flames away from the vehicle and service
area. Ventilate when charging or operating vehicle in an enclosed area. Wear a full face shield and
rubber gloves when working on or near batteries.
• To prevent fire, immediately replace battery charger DC cord plug and receptacle if the following
conditions exist:
– Plug pins have worn nickel plating and copper is exposed.
– Plug requires an inordinate amount of force to insert into receptacle, especially if accompanied
by a “grinding” feel.
• Battery – Poison! Contains acid! Causes severe burns. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, or clothing.
Antidotes:
– External: Flush with water. Call a physician immediately.
– Internal: Drink large quantities of milk or water. Follow with milk of magnesia or vegetable
oil. Call a physician immediately.
– Eyes: Flush with water for 15 minutes. Call a physician immediately.
• Gasoline – Flammable! Explosive! Do not smoke. Keep sparks and flames away from the vehicle and
service area. Service only in a well-ventilated area.
• Do not operate engine in an enclosed area without proper ventilation. The engine produces carbon
monoxide, which is an odorless, deadly poison.
• The vehicle will not provide protection from lightning, flying objects, or other storm-related hazards. If
caught in a storm while driving a Club Car vehicle, exit the vehicle and seek shelter in accordance with
applicable safety guidelines for your location.
WARNING
• Only trained technicians should service or repair the vehicle or battery charger. Anyone doing even
simple repairs or service should have knowledge and experience in electrical and mechanical repair.
The appropriate instructions must be used when performing maintenance, service, or accessory
installation.
• Follow the procedures exactly as stated in this manual, and heed all DANGER, WARNING, and
CAUTION statements in this manual as well as those on the vehicle and battery charger.
• Lift only one end of the vehicle at a time. Use a suitable lifting device (chain hoist or hydraulic floor
jack) with 1000 lb. (454 kg) minimum lifting capacity. Do not use lifting device to hold vehicle in raised
position. Use approved jack stands of proper weight capacity to support the vehicle and chock
the wheels that remain on the floor. When not performing a test or service procedure that requires
movement of the wheels, lock the brakes.
