Owner’s Guide
Direction Selector Operation
To prevent loss of control, do not move the direction selector to a
different position while the vehicle is in motion. If you move the
selector, the speed will immediately decrease and a warning
device activates.
Move the direction selector to F to move in the forward direction.
Move the direction selector to R to move in the reverse direction. A reverse warn-
ing buzzer activates when the direction selector is moved to the R position.
The position between F and R is the neutral position.
When you leave the vehicle, put the direction selector in the forward position, engage the parking brake and remove the
key from the switch.
Accelerator Pedal Operation
Accidental movement of the accelerator pedal can cause the vehicle to suddenly move and cause
severe injury or death.
An engaged parking brake will release when the accelerator pedal is pressed and cause the vehi-
cle to move suddenly. When the vehicle is parked, make sure the key is in the OFF position so
that the electrical system is disabled.
When the key switch is in the ON position, press the accelerator pedal start the engine and move the vehicle. Release
the pedal to stop the engine.
Press the brake pedal to stop the vehicle quickly.
If the key switch is in the ON position and the parking brake is
engaged, the brake releases when you press the accelerator
pedal and can cause the vehicle to move suddenly. This is a fea-
ture to make sure the vehicle is not driven with the parking brake
engaged. Pressing the accelerator pedal is not the recom-
mended method of to release the parking brake.
