GETTING ONTO YOUR WRANGLER

1.Make certain that the key is removed from the key switch.

OPERATING YOUR WRANGLER

After planning your route:

νSet the 5-10 mph switch to your desired maximum speed of 5 or 10 mph; then set the speed adjustment dial to your desired speed. We recommend you initially set the 5-10 mph switch to 5 mph and the speed adjust- ment dial to the tortoise (slowest speed setting).

νInsert the key into the key switch.

νWith your hands on the handgrips, use your thumb to gently push the right throttle lever to disengage your Wrangler’s brakes and move forward; the electric brake automatically disengages and the Wrangler acceler- ates smoothly to the speed you set with the speed adjustment dial.

νPull on the left handgrip to steer your Wrangler to the left. Pull on the right handgrip to steer your Wrangler to the right.

νMove the tiller to the center position to drive straight ahead.

νGently release the throttle lever to decelerate and come to a complete stop. The electric brake automatically engages when your Wrangler comes to a stop.

νTo move in reverse, use your thumb to gently push the left throttle lever to disengage your Wrangler’s brakes and move rearward.

NOTE: Your Wrangler’s reverse speed is slower than the speed you set with the speed adjustment dial and the 5-10 mph switch.
