DRIVING THROUGH WATER
Your GEM vehicle can operate through water up to a maximum recommended
depth equal to the floorboards.
NOTICE
Serious damage can occur to the electrical system and batteries if the vehicle
is operated in water deeper than the floorboards.
Follow these procedures when
operating through water:
1. Determine water depths and
current before entering water.
2. Choose a crossing where both
banks have gradual inclines.
3. Proceed slowly, avoiding rocks and
obstacles.
4. Avoid operating through deep or
fast-flowing water.
5. After leaving water, always dry the
brakes by applying light pressure to
the pedal repeatedly until braking
action is normal.
PARKING THE VEHICLE
1. Apply the brakes. Stop the vehicle on a level surface.
2. When parking inside a garage or other structure, be sure that the structure is
well ventilated and that the vehicle is not close to any source of flame or
sparks, including any appliance with pilot lights.
3. Move the direction switch to the neutral position.
4. Set the park brake.
5. Turn the key off. Remove the key from the ignition to prevent unauthorized
use.
