1.1 Indicator Lights
When the key is turned ON or OFF, some of the lights of the instrument panel cluster glow for short time.
This is part of the car’s self test program.
In case you notice any change in this behavior during usage, please contact Goingreen on service@goingreen.co.uk
NOTE
I. CHARGE LIGHT (Green)
This light should come on and flash green when your car is put on charge. This indicates that charging is taking place. When the Power Pack is fully charged, this light stops flashing and glows green permanently. The light disappears when the charge cable is removed from the charge port.
.II. LOW BATTERY LIGHT (Red)
When the State-Of-Charge (SOC) in the Power Pack drops to about 35%, this light starts flashing. The light turns solid red once the SOC goes down to 25%. This is a warning and at this stage it is advisable to charge at the first opportunity. The AC/Heating will automatically switch OFF (if it is ON). Speed of vehicle will be limited to ‘F’ mode if driving in ‘B’ mode
Instrument Cluster and Controls
CHARGE LIGHT
Driving at conditions of 20% SOC or less will reduce Power Pack life, cause damage and affect its warranty.
CAUTION

1.1 Indicator Lights
Instrument Cluster and Controls
IV. TEMPERATURE LIGHT
If the light glows while driving, it indicates overheating in either or all of the following components:
1. Motor
2. Motor Controller
3. Power Pack
4. Charger
In cold climate, the temperature light will flash during charge or drive, if battery temperature is less than 10°C. This indicates that the range of the car is likely to be low.
When the car is not in use, keeping the car plugged in to the utility supply under this condition will activate the battery heaters and warm up the batteries.
While in charge, if the light continues to glow/flash, it indicates increased charging time due to high Power Pack / Charger temperature.
NOTE
Do not charge your car in high ambient temperature conditions or in direct sunlight. This will reduce the life of your Power Pack.
CAUTION
.III. EQUALISATION (Alternate between CHARGE LIGHT and LOW BATTERY LIGHT)
Batteries are programmed to automatically perform “Equalisation Charge” once every 3-4weeks. This ensures all individual batteries of power pack are equalised. During this process, Charge light and Low battery light will blink alternatively. When this process is complete, the charge light will remain green. It is advisable to allow the car to continue until Charge light turns permanently green. This process will take 10Hrs and only after full charge.
CHARGE LIGHT
LOW BATTERY LIGHT
8
V. LOW BATTERY WATER
This lamp glows red when the water level in the battery is low.
After the light comes ON you should get the batteries watered within the next 3 cycles. Failure to do so will reduce the life of the power pack and affect warranty.
CAUTION
If low water is sensed, the battery low water light will come on for the first 5 mins of adrive.If watering is not carried out following the next charge the low water light willrepeat forthe next drive.
rd
If the battery is not watered after a 3
th
and journey then the BATTERY LOW WATER light will flash every seconds for theentirejourneyuntil the batteries are watered.

1.1 Indicator Lights
Instrument Cluster and Controls
A flashing (ON/OFF) temperature light during drive indicates a severe over temperature condition and may completely restrain the car. If you continue driving the car, electronics may reduce the speed and power in order to limit the heating.
In any such a situation, switch the car off and start again approximately after 15 min. If it continues to glow, it is advisable to contact Goingreen
If you attempt to drive with the light glowing red, you will notice that the performance of your car is reduced. If you still continue to drive, the temperature light will flash and your car will soon come to a stop to protect its drive train.
CAUTION
Low water sensing may be skewed by parking on a slope. Please observe during drive.
NOTE
ONLY water the battery when it is fully charged and ONLY use distilled or de-ionised water. Not watering the car may VOID your warranty, see Terms & Conditions of Agreement.

VI. SERVICE LIGHT
When the start-up key is turned ON, this light should glow red and disappear immediately. In the event it stays on, it indicates that your G-Wiz requires attention by Goingreen
The appearance of service light can be due to a temperory condition detected by EMS (On board computer). Please continue using the car and inform your nearest service center at the earliest opportunity.
CAUTION
VII. NEUTRAL LIGHT
This light will be on when BFNR knob is at ‘N’ position. This light will blink if the key is switched on with control knob in either B, F and R position. If this light is blinking the car will not move. Please turn the control knob to N and then to desired mode to drive the car.
Ensure knob position in NEUTRAL before start-up

CONTROL KNOB
The control knob of your car enables you to choose the direction and speed of movement. It has the following positions:
Forward [F]:
This is the normal driving mode position which enables you to move forward. (max speed is 45mph) and driving in this will give the best driving range out of your car.
Power Boost [B]:
This mode is to be used ‘only’ if ‘Boost Power’ is required. This position also enables you to move forward direction, will give you addition speed, acceleration and hill climbing. Neutral [N]: The BFNR knob should be in this position at the time of Key on and should be used while parking your car, or when you place your car in a stationary position. Reverse [R]: When you rotate the control knob to this position, your car would move in the reverse direction. Your speed in this position is limited to 12 mph.
(To know more about how to derive the maximum range from your car, please refer to section 4.0 on “Driving your Car”)
