OPERATION

Driving in Reverse

Follow these precautions when operating in reverse:

1. Always check for obstacles or people behind the vehicle before

backing.

2. Avoid backing downhill.

3. Drive slowly. Apply the brakes lightly for stopping.

4. Avoid turning at sharp angles.

5. Never open the throttle suddenly.

6. Do not use the override switch unless additional power is required

for vehicle movement. Use with caution.

NOTICE: Excessive throttle operation while in the speed limit mode may cause

fuel to build in the exhaust, resulting in engine popping and/or engine
damage.
