ELECTRIC POWERED PERSONNEL CARRIERS & GOLF CAR
Owner’s Manual and Service Guide
Read all of manual to become thoroughly familiar with this vehicle. Pay particular attention to all Notes, Cautions and Warnings
Horn
The horn activating button is located either on the steer-
ing column or on the floor to the left of the brake pedal
(Ref Fig. 8 on page 4). The horn is located under the seat
on the driver side.
State of Charge Meter
Located in the dash, the state of charge meter indicates
the amount of usable power in the batteries (Ref. Fig. 5
on page 3).
Run - Tow/Maintenance Switch (on PDS
vehicles only)
The PDS vehicle is equipped with a two position switch
located under the passenger side of the rear seat (Ref
Fig. 9 on page 4).
With the switch in ‘TOW/MAINTENANCE’ position:
• the controller is deactivated
• the electronic braking system is deactivated which
allows the vehicle to be towed or roll freely
• the warning beeper is deactivated
With the switch in ‘RUN’ position:
• the controller is activated
• the electronic braking system and warning beeper
features are activated
PDS vehicles operate only in the ‘RUN’ posi-
tion.
If all of the following events occur with the switch in
‘RUN’ position:
a) the vehicle has been stopped for more than 1.5
seconds
b) the accelerator pedal has been released for more
than one second
c) the vehicle begins to roll above 2 mph (3 kph)
the electronic braking will limit speed to approximately 2
mph (3 kph) and the warning beeper will sound. When
the accelerator pedal is depressed, the electronic brak-
ing and warning beeper will be overridden and normal
vehicle operation resumes. Any unusual situation sensed
by the PDS system will cause a similar response. The
system functions in all key switch positions.
To prevent the possibili-
ty of loss of control that
could cause severe inju-
ry or death, use service brake to control speed. The
PDS system is not a substitute for the service brake.
If all of the following events occur with the switch in
‘RUN’ position:
a) the vehicle is being driven down a slope
b) the vehicle speed exceeds the designed speed
with the accelerator pedal depressed or released
the electronic braking will limit the speed of the vehicle to
the designed speed range (the warning beeper will not
sound). When the electronic braking system is activated
by this sequence of events, the motor generates power
which is returned to the batteries. PDS models are
equipped with a regenerative motor control system.
If the operator attempts to override the electronic braking
feature by moving the direction selector or key switch to
another position, the warning beeper will sound and the
vehicle will brake rapidly until it reaches the speed of
approximately 2 mph (3 kph).
