4. The Freedom performance option: This option includes all of the driving features of the All-Terrain option except that
the flat ground and downhill compression braking speeds are 18.5 mph (29.7 kph) instead of 13.2 mph (21 kph).
This option is enabled when the red plug is installed.
The vehicle performance option can be determined without removing the ESC cover by placing the vehicle in diag-
nostic mode (See diagnostic mode instructions). The number of beeps heard immediately after entering diagnostic
mode corresponds to the option per the above option numbers.
TruCourse Technology (TCT) System™ Performance Options & Diagnostics
•
Anti-Roll back to limit backward motion of the vehicle down an incline to less than 2 mph (3 kph)
•
Walk-Away to limit vehicle movement without driver input, slowing the vehicle to 2 mph (3 kph) and sounding
an audible alarm (reverse beeper)
•
Anti-Stall protection to prevent commutator damage from stalling the vehicle against an object or on a hill
•
High pedal disable to prevent undesired acceleration if the direction selector lever is changed, or the key is
turned on while the accelerator is depressed
•
Diagnostic mode to ease troubleshooting
Changing Performance Options
The performance option may be changed if the
existing option is not compatible with the terrain
that the vehicle will be operated.
1. Raise the seat and ensure that the Run-Tow/
Maintenance switch is in the ‘RUN’ position.
2. Ensure that the charger is unplugged from the
vehicle.
3. Locate the vehicle diagnostic port and remove
the environmental cover.
4. Connect the handheld diagnostic tool and select
the desired performance setting.
5. Disconnect the handheld diagnostic tool, replace
the environmental cover and seat.
At monthly intervals, test the TCT system by allowing the vehicle to roll down an incline with the accelerator pedal
released. Braking force should be felt at approximately 2 mph (3 kph) indicating that the TCT system is functioning. If
vehicle speed continues to rise, apply the service brake to control speed and proceed with diagnostic check
.
Charging the vehicle will also de-activate the diagnostic mode and the handheld diagnostic tool will not operate. The
two-position ‘Run-Tow/Maintenance’ switch is located under the passenger side of the seat on the ESC environmen-
tal cover.
