FOREWORD

Read all of this manual to become thoroughly familiar with this vehicle. Pay particular attention to all Notices, Cautions, Warnings, and Dangers.

This vehicle has been designed and manufactured in the United States of America (USA). The

Standards and Specifications listed in the following text originate in the USA unless otherwise

indicated.

The use of non-Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) approved parts may void the warranty.

Overfilling batteries may void the warranty.

BATTERY PROLONGED STORAGE

All batteries will self-discharge over time. The rate of self-discharge varies depending on the

ambient temperature and the age and condition of the batteries.

A fully charged battery will not freeze in winter temperatures unless the temperature falls below

-75°F (- 60°C).

For winter storage, the batteries must be clean, fully charged and disconnected from any source

of electrical drain.

On all electric vehicles, set the key switch to ‘OFF’. Make sure that the ‘RUN/TOW’ switch, located
under the passenger seat, is set to the ‘TOW/MAINTENANCE/STORAGE’ position; if the switch is

left in the ‘RUN’ position, it will drain the batteries.

As with all electric vehicles, the batteries must be checked and recharged as required or at a min-

imum of 30 day intervals.

This manual has been designed to assist in maintaining the vehicle in accordance with procedures developed by the manufac­turer. Adherence to these procedures and troubleshooting tips will ensure the best possible service from the product. To
reduce the chance of personal injury or property damage, the following must be carefully observed:

Certain replacement parts can be used independently and/or in combination with other accessories to modify an E-Z-GO­manufactured vehicle to permit the vehicle to operate at or in excess of 20 mph. When an E-Z-GO-manufactured vehicle is
modified an any way by the Distributor, Dealer or customer to operate at or in excess of 20mph , UNDER FEDERA L LAW
the modified product will be a Low Speed Vehicle (LSV) subject to the strictures and requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle
Safety Standard 571.500. In these instances, pursuant to Federal law the Distributor or Dealer MUS T equip the p roduct
with headlights, rear lights, turn signals, seat belts, top, horn and all other m odifi catio ns for LSV ’s mandated i n FM VSS

571.500, and affix a Vehicle Identification Number to the product in accordance with the requirements of FMVSS 571.565.
Pursuant to FMVSS 571.500, and in accordance with the State laws applicable in the places of sale and use of the product,

GENERAL

All vehicles can be used for a variety of tasks beyond the original intended use of the vehicle; therefore, it is impossible to
anticipate and warn against every possible combination of circumstances that may occur. No warning can take replace good
common sense and prudent driving practices.

Good common sense and prudent driving practices do more to prevent accidents and injury than all of the warnings and
instructions combined. E-Z-GO strongly suggests that all users and maintenance personnel read this entire manual paying
particular attention to the CAUTIONS, WARNINGS and DANGERS contained therein.

If you have any questions regarding this vehicle, contact your E-Z-GO dealer or write to the address on the back cover of this
publication, Attention: Customer Care Department.

E-Z-GO reserves the right to make design changes without obligation to make these changes on units previously sold. The
information contained in this manual is subject to change without notice.

E-Z-GO IS NOT LIABLE FOR ERRORS IN THIS MANUAL. E-Z-GO IS NOT LIABLE FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUEN­TIAL DAMAGES THAT RESULT FROM THE USE OF THE MATERIAL IN THIS MANUAL.

This vehicle conforms to the current applicable standard(s) for safety and performance requirements.
These vehicles are designed and manufactured for off-road use. They DO NOT conform to Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Stan-

dards of the United States of America (USA) and are not equipped for operation on public streets. Some communities may
permit these vehicles to be operated on their streets on a limited basis and in accordance with local ordinances.

With electric powered vehicles, be sure that all electrical accessories are grounded directly to the battery (-) post. Never use

the chassis or body as a ground connection.

Refer to GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS for vehicle seating capacity.

SAFETY INFORMATION

Read all of this manual to become thoroughly familiar with this vehicle. Pay particular attention to all Notices, Cautions, War nings, and Dangers.

Never modify the vehicle in any way that will alter the weight distribution of the vehicle, decrease its stability or
increase the speed or extend the stopping distance beyond the factory specification. Such modifications can result
in serious personal injury or death.

Do not make any such modifications or changes. E-Z-GO prohibits and disclaims responsibility for all such modifications or
and alterations which would adversely affect the safety of the vehicle.

Vehicles that are capable of higher speeds must limit their speed to no more than the speed of other vehicles when used in a
golf course environment. Additionally, speed should be further moderated by the environmental conditions, terrain and com­mon sense.

Operation of the vehicle is limited to persons above the height of 59 inches (150 cm).

SAFETY INFORMATION

Read all of this manual to become thoroughly familiar with this vehicle. Pay particular attention to all Notices, Cautions, Warnings, and Dangers.

The manufacturer cannot anticipate all situations, therefore people attempting to maintain or repair the vehicle must have the
skill and experience to recognize and protect themselves from potential situations that could result in severe personal injury or
death and damage to the vehicle. Use extreme caution and, if unsure as to the potential for injury, refer the repair or mainte­nance to a qualified mechanic.

VENTILATION

Hydrogen gas is generated in the charging cycle of batteries and is explosive in concentrations as low as 4%. Because hydro­gen gas is lighter than air, it will collect in the ceiling of buildings necessitating proper ventilation. Five air exchanges per hour
is considered the minimum requi re men t.

NEVER charge a vehicle in an area that is subject to flame or spark. Pay particular attention to natural gas or propane water
heaters and furnaces.

Always use a dedicated circuit for each battery charger. Do not permit other appliances to be plugged into the receptacle when
the charger is in operation.

Chargers must be installed and operated in accordance with charger manufacturers recommendations or applicable electrical
code (whichever is higher).
