WARNING! It is prohibited to step down on both the brake pedal and the
accelerator pedal at the same time. This can cause severe damage to the motor
and/or controller.
WARNING! The parking brake will automatically release when the accelerator
pedal is depressed. If the key switch is in the ON position, depressing the
accelerator may cause the vehicle to abruptly move. Disengage the brake before
activation of vehicle.
CHARGING SYSTEM
The charging system on this vehicle is located at the rearmost of the car under the
rear seat. The charger is either a DELTA-Q or an ELCON brand charger. The on-
board charger units are fully sealed and enclosed by a rear cover. The charge port
to plug the vehicle in is located on the passenger or driver side of the car just
above the floorboard. Charge status indicators are located next to the ports and are
as follows:
a) DELTA-Q. The indicator will display a quick flashing green light during
the bulk of the charge cycle. Once the batteries reach 80% of capacity, the
light will display a slowly flashing green light. Once the batteries are
fully charged, the LED will be solid green.
b) ELCON. The round indicator will display a flashing red light during the
bulk of the charge cycle. Once the batteries reach 80% of capacity, the
light will flash amber. Once the batteries are fully charged the light will
flash a steady green.
RUN/TOW SWITCH
The purpose of switch is to disengage the electrical system from the battery pack.
In the event you have to push or tow the vehicle outside of its own power, you
must place it in the TOW position. If you do not, the anti-roll away feature will
energize and slow the vehicle down. This can damage the controller or motor if
left in RUN and vehicle is towed.
The secondary use for this switch is for storage. By placing the vehicle in the
TOW position and removing the electronics from the battery pack, it will greatly
reduce the parasitic voltage draw and keep your batteries from losing charge as
fast.
V. OPERATION
Starting your vehicle:
a) Depress brake pedal or accelerator pedal gently to remove parking brake. Keep
brake applied.
b) Turn the vehicle key clockwise to the ON position.
WARNING! Do not step on accelerator pedal when turning on the power key,
otherwise, the vehicle may suddenly start to move.
c) Select desired direction of travel.
