OPERATING PROCEDURES Read all of this manual to become thoroughly familiar with this vehicle. Pay particular attention to all Notices, Cautions, Warnings, and Dangers. Use extra care and reduced speed when driving on poor surfaces, such as loose dirt, wet grass, gravel, etc. Stay in designated areas and avoid extremely rough terrain. Maintain a safe speed when driving down hill. Use service brake to control speed when traveling down an incline. A sudden stop or change of direction may result in loss of control. To prevent loss of control, do not move the direction selector of a vehicle while the vehicle is in motion. Moving the selector will result in a sudden slowing of the vehicle and the beeping of a warning device. Slow down before and during turns. All turns should be made at reduced speed. 4 Never drive vehicle up, down, or across an incline that exceeds 14° (25% grade). Refer to GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS for seating capacity. Depressing accelerator pedal will release foot operated park brake and may cause inadvertent vehicle movement. Turn the key to the 'OFF' position whenever the vehicle is parked. To prevent inadvertent movement when the vehicle is to be left unattended, engage the park brake, move direction selector to forward position, turn key to 'OFF' position and remove key. Make sure that the direction selector is in correct position before attempting to start the vehicle. Always bring the vehicle to a complete stop before shifting the direction selector. Do not take vehicle out of 'gear' while in motion (coast). Check the area behind the vehicle before operating in reverse. All occupants must be seated. Keep entire body inside vehicle and hold on while vehicle is in motion. TERRAIN 250 48V TRUCOURSE TECHNOLOGY SYSTEM™ General TruCourse Technology (TCT) system vehicles are operated in one of three modes or "performance options". All options have standard features that control, protect and diagnose the vehicle. The options are defined as follows: 1. The Golf Flat performance option: The motor's speed is sensed and regulated to 14.8 mph (23.8 kph) directly by the controller, the vehicle's flat ground speed will not change with different ground surfaces. The speed sensor also allows for precise control of the downhill vehicle speed during compression braking. As the vehicle crests a hill and begins to descend, the speed will be smoothly regulated to 14.8 mph (23.8 kph). This option is enabled when there is a blank plug installed. 2. The Golf Steep Hill performance option: This option includes all of the driving features of the All-Terrain option plus compression braking. Compression braking occurs when the throttle is released while the vehicle is moving. The motor will electrically retard the motion of the vehicle until the throttle is depressed again or the vehicle stops. This is the strongest of the two compression braking options. This is 12.8 mph (20.6 kph) option. This option is enabled when the blue plug is installed. 3. The Golf Mild Hill performance option: This option includes all of the driving features of the Steep Hill option, except that the compression braking feel is milder, and the flat ground compression braking speeds are 13.8 mph (22.2 kph) instead of 14.8 mph (23.8 kph). This option is enabled when the yellow plug is installed. 4- 7
