FOREWORD
Club Car vehicles are designed and built to provide the ultimate in performance efficiency; however, proper
maintenance and repair are essential for achieving maximum service life and continued safe and reliable
operation.
This manual provides detailed information for the maintenance and repair of the electric Precedent vehicles,
and should be thoroughly reviewed prior to servicing the vehicle. The procedures provided herein must be
properly implemented, and the DANGER, WARNING, and CAUTION statements must be heeded.
This manual was written for the trained technician who already possesses knowledge and skills in electrical
and mechanical repair. If the technician does not have such knowledge and skills, attempted service or
repairs to the vehicle may render the vehicle unsafe. For this reason, Club Car advises that all repairs and/or
service be performed by an authorized Club Car distributor/dealer representative or by a Club Car factory-
trained technician.
It is the policy of Club Car, Inc. to assist its distributors and dealers in continually updating their service knowl-
edge and facilities so they can provide prompt and efficient service for vehicle owners. Regional technical rep-
resentatives, vehicle service seminars, periodic service bulletins, maintenance and service manuals, and
other service publications also represent Club Car’s continuing commitment to customer support.
This manual covers all aspects of typical vehicle service; unique situations, however, do sometimes occur
when servicing a vehicle. If it appears that a service question is not answered in this manual, you may write
to us at: Club Car, Inc.; P.O. Box 204658; Augusta, Georgia 30917; Attention: Technical Services, or contact
a Club Car Technical Service Representative at [phone], ext. 3580.

SECTION 1 – SAFETY
To ensure the safety of those servicing Club Car vehicles, and to protect the vehicles from possible damage
resulting from improper service or maintenance, the procedures in this manual must be followed.
It is important to note that throughout this manual there are statements labeled DANGER, WARNING, or CAU-
TION. These special statements relate to specific safety issues, and must be read, understood, and heeded
before proceeding with procedures. There are statements labeled NOTE, which provide other essential ser-
vice or maintenance information.
ý DANGER
• A DANGER indicates an immediate hazard that will result in severe personal injury or death.
ý WARNING
• A WARNING indicates an immediate hazard that could result in severe personal injury or death.
ý CAUTION
• A CAUTION with the safety alert symbol indicates a hazard or unsafe practice that could
result in minor personal injury.
CAUTION
• A CAUTION without the safety alert symbol indicates a potentially hazardous situation that
could result in property damage.
GENERAL WARNINGS
The following safety statements must be heeded whenever the vehicle is being operated, repaired, or ser-
viced. Other specific safety statements appear throughout this manual and on the vehicle.
ý DANGER
• Battery – Explosive gases! Do not smoke. Keep sparks and flames away from the vehicle and
service area. Ventilate when charging or operating vehicle in an enclosed area. Wear a full
face shield and rubber gloves when working on or near batteries.
• Battery – Poison! Contains acid! Causes severe burns. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, or
clothing. Antidotes:
- External: Flush with water. Call a physician immediately.
- Internal: Drink large quantities of milk or water. Follow with milk of magnesia or vegetable
oil. Call a physician immediately.
- Eyes: Flush with water for 15 minutes. Call a physician immediately.

SAFETY General Warnings
Page 1-2 2005 Precedent IQ System Electric Golf Car Maintenance and Service Manual

ý WARNING
• Only trained technicians should service or repair the vehicle or battery charger. Anyone doing
even simple repairs or service should have knowledge and experience in electrical and
mechanical repair. The appropriate instructions must be used when performing maintenance,
service, or accessory installation.
• Follow the procedures exactly as stated in this manual, and heed all DANGER, WARNING, and
CAUTION statements in this manual as well as those on the vehicle and battery charger.
• Lift only one end of the vehicle at a time. Use a suitable lifting device (chain hoist or hydraulic
floor jack) with 1000 lb. (454 kg) minimum lifting capacity. Do not use lifting device to hold
vehicle in raised position. Use approved jack stands of proper weight capacity to support the
vehicle and chock the wheels that remain on the floor. When not performing a test or service
procedure that requires movement of the wheels, lock the brakes.
• Improper use of the vehicle or failure to properly maintain it could result in decreased vehicle
performance, severe personal injury, or death.
• Any modification or change to the vehicle that affects the stability or handling of the vehicle,
or increases maximum vehicle speed beyond factory specifications, could result in severe
personal injury or death.
• Check the vehicle for proper location of all vehicle safety and operation decals and make sure
they are in place and are easy to read.
• Wear safety glasses or approved eye protection when servicing the vehicle or battery charger.
Wear a full face shield and rubber gloves when working on or near batteries.
• Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry such as rings, watches, chains, etc., when servicing the
vehicle or battery charger.
• Use insulated tools when working near batteries or electrical connections. Use extreme
caution to avoid shorting of components or wiring.
• Prior to leaving the vehicle unattended or servicing the vehicle, turn the key switch OFF,
remove the key, and place the Forward/Reverse switch in the NEUTRAL position. Chock the
wheels when servicing the vehicle.
• Place Tow/Run switch in the TOW position before disconnecting or connecting the batteries.
Failure to heed this warning could result in a battery explosion or severe personal injury.
• To avoid unintentionally starting the vehicle, disconnect the batteries as shown (Figure 1-1).
• After disconnecting the batteries, wait 90 seconds for the controller capacitors to discharge.
• Do not leave children unattended on vehicle.

SAFETY COMMITTEE
If the golf car is to be rented or is part of a fleet, we strongly recommend that a safety committee be appointed.
One of the main concerns of this committee should be the safe operation of the golf cars.
This should include at a minimum:
•Where golf cars should be driven.
•Ensuring that proper warnings of driving hazards are displayed and visible. See below for list of signs
available from Club Car Service Parts Department.
•Who should and who should not drive golf cars.
•Instructing first time drivers.
•Maintaining golf cars in a safe driving condition
•How various rules are to be enforced.
The safety committee should include all these items and such others as the committee feels necessary or
appropriate. Warning signs available from Club Car are listed below.
STORAGE
See General Warnings, Section 1, Page 1-1.
ý WARNING
• Turn the key switch OFF, remove the key, and leave the Forward/Reverse switch in the
NEUTRAL position during storage. This is to prevent unintentionally starting the vehicle or a
fire hazard.
• Do not attempt to charge frozen batteries or batteries with bulged cases. Discard the battery.
Frozen batteries can explode.
ý CAUTION
• Batteries in low state of charge will freeze at low temperatures.
• To avoid exposing electrical components to moisture and subsequent damages, do not use
any type of pressure washing or steam cleaning equipment to wash the vehicle.
• Place Tow/Run switch in the TOW position.

PREPARING THE ELECTRIC VEHICLE FOR EXTENDED OFF-SEASON STORAGE
1. Fully charge batteries. See Section 13 – Batteries.
2. Batteries should be clean and free of corrosion. Wash tops and terminals of batteries with a solution of
baking soda and water (1 cup (237 mL) baking soda per 1 gallon (3.8 L) of water). Rinse solution off bat-
teries. Do not allow this solution to enter the batteries. Be sure terminals are tight. Let the terminals dry
and then coat them with Battery Terminal Protector Spray (CCI P/N 1014305).
3. Store vehicle in a cool, dry place. This will minimize battery self-discharge.
4. Adjust tires to recommended tire pressure. See Section 2 – Vehicle Specifications.
5. Perform all semiannual periodic lubrication. See Periodic Lubrication Schedule, Section 10, Page 10-3..
6. Thoroughly clean front body, rear body, seats, battery compartment, and underside of vehicle.
7. Do not engage the park brake. Chock the wheels to prevent the vehicle from rolling.
