OPERATING PROCEDURES

Read all of SAFETY and this section before attempting any procedure. Pay particular attention to Notices, Cautions, Warnings and Dangers.

Owner’s Guide

Walk-Away Feature

Walk-away limits vehicle movement without driver input, slowing the vehicle to 2 mph (3 kph) and sounding an audible

alarm (reverse beeper).
Example: If all of the following events occur:

the vehicle has been stopped for more than 1.5 seconds

the accelerator pedal has been released for more than one second

the vehicle begins to roll above 2 mph (3 kph)

the Walk-Away feature will limit speed to approximately 2 mph (3 kph) and the warning beeper will sound. When the

accelerator pedal is depressed, the Walk-Away feature and warning beeper will be overridden and normal vehicle opera-

tion resumes.

Anti-Roll Back Feature

Anti-Roll Back, like Walk-Away, limits backward motion of the vehicle down an incline to less than 2 mph (3 kph). See

‘Walk-Away Feature’ above.

Anti-Stall Feature

Anti-Stall protection prevents motor damage from stalling the vehicle against an object or on a hill.
Example: If all of the following events occur:

the system senses that the accelerator pedal is depressed (power applied to motor)

the motor is stalled long enough that any more time may cause motor damage

the Anti-Stall feature will momentarily interrupt power to the motor. This brief interruption will permit the car to roll back-

wards slightly before again stopping in the stalled condition. This process will repeat itself periodically until the car is

moved from the stalled condition.
Example: If all of the following events occur:

the system senses that the accelerator pedal is depressed (power applied to motor)

the brake is engaged so as to prevent vehicle motion

the Anti-Stall feature will sense a stalled motor condition and remove power from the motor. When the brake pedal is

released, the car will roll backwards slightly before power is returned to the motor.

High Pedal Disable Feature

High pedal disable prevents undesired acceleration if the direction selector lever is changed, or the key is turned on while

the accelerator is depressed.

Diagnostic Mode Feature

Diagnostic mode eases troubleshooting.
In the unlikely event of certain electrical system failures, the Diagnostic Mode feature will default to a mode that will per-

mit the vehicle to operate, but at a very reduced speed.
This feature allows the vehicle to be driven back to its storage facility where the problem can be diagnosed.
The controller can be put in diagnostic mode by the technician and the controller will report the failure mode.

STARTING AND DRIVING

Remove the charger plug from the vehicle receptacle and properly store the cable prior to moving the vehicle.
To operate the vehicle:

Apply the service brake, place the key in the key switch and turn it to the ON position.

Move the direction selector to the direction desired.
