Drive Mode Switch

CAUTION! Changing the drive mode switch position while driving
could result in an automatic increase or decrease in speed without a
change to accelerator pedal pressure.

Press the top of the switch to select high mode. Use high
mode for most trail-riding conditions. The vehicle will
operate at speeds up to 25 MPH (40 km/h).

Press the bottom of the switch to select low mode. Low mode
is recommended for short-term operation in extreme load
conditions. Use low mode when towing, hauling loads or
maneuvering over obstacles. Speed will be limited to a maximum of 10 MPH (16 km/h) and
regenerative braking increases to improve control in aggressive terrain. Return the mode
switch to high mode for normal operation.

Move the switch to the center position to select the maximum range mode. Use this mode to
operate the vehicle a greater distance or for a longer time period. This mode limits both
speed and torque to obtain the maximum driving range.
