DANGER: ROLLOVER CAN RESULT IN SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH

• NEVER ATTEMPT TURNING AT SPEEDS GREATER THAN 6 MPH (ROUGHLY, A BRISK WALK). HIGH SPEED TURNING CAN RESULT IN ROLLOVER AND SUBSEQUENT INJURY OR DEATH.

• ENSURE THE STEERING WHEEL AND FRONT WHEEL ORIENTATION IS STRAIGHT BEFORE APPLYING FULL THROTTLE.

DANGER: UNAUTHORIZED MODIFICATIONS CAN RESULT IN FIRE, INCONSISTENT VEHICLE CHARACTERISTICS OR INCREASED ACCIDENT AND ROLLOVER RISK FROM EXCESS SPEED.

• Do not modify the engine, drive, mechanical or electrical systems of your BERS Vehicle. Never install after-market parts or accessories intended to increase the speed or power of your BERS Vehicle.

• Modifications may also void the BERS emissions and/or limited warranty.

WARNING: Ensure the BERS Vehicle is properly adjusted for operating conditions.

• BERS Vehicle operation above 3000 feet elevation may require a high-altitude kit. Please contact your dealer.

• Maintain chassis parameters including tire pressure, consumables (bushing, gasket, shocks) according to the Club Car golf car vehicle.

Reverse

WARNING

The BERS Vehicle will travel in reverse with throttle application in the Reverse position. Ensure your path is clear. Follow reverse travel guidance from the Club Car base vehicle manual.

Figure 4: FNR Selector in Reverse Position

Starting The key switch (provided separately) is mounted on the instrument panel to the right of the steering column. It has three positions: OFF, ON, and START.

To start the vehicle, place the Forward/Reverse handle in the NEUTRAL position and turn the key to the START position, and hold it there until the engine starts. Activate the choke as necessary. If the engine does not start after 10 to 15 seconds, release the key and repeat the procedure. Once the engine starts, release the key and it will return to the ON position. The engine will idle in neutral. The engine will continue to idle until the key is turned to the OFF position.

WARNING

Do not shift the Forward/Reverse handle while the accelerator pedal is pressed. Shift the handle only when the vehicle is at a complete stop and the engine is at idle. Failure to heed this caution could result in damage to the transmission.

Accelerating The accelerator pedal (1) is the pedal farthest to the right (Figure 12).

With the engine running and the Forward/Reverse handle in the FORWARD or REVERSE position, vehicle speed will increase as the accelerator pedal is pressed. When the accelerator pedal is released, it will return to the original position and the engine will idle.
