Driver requirements●
This vehicle is intended for use only by an
operator 16 or older with a valid motor vehi-
cle license. Check country laws for mini-
mum age requirements.
●
The driver must be able to place both feet
flat on the floorboard while seated upright
with his/her back against the backrest.
●
Do not drive after using drugs or alcohol.
Remove the ignition key when the vehicle is
not in use to prevent unauthorized use of the
machine. Parents:
Many countries have implemented new motor
vehicle licensing requirements for young driv-
ers. These requirements are in response to
the disproportionately high rate of crashes in-
volving youthful drivers. As with automobiles,
to promote safe driving behaviors, you should
supervise younger drivers and consider set-
ting rules and putting limits on how, when, and
where the Viking can be used.

Leaving the vehicle
Do not get out of the vehicle while the engine
is running and the drive select lever is in any
gear. There is a risk of injury because:●
Children or others may accidentally press
the accelerator pedal.
●
Objects tossed into the vehicle may strike
the accelerator pedal.
●
The parking brake may not keep the vehi-
cle from accelerating.
Unwanted vehicle movement can cause seri-
ous injury or death, and it may be dangerous
to try to stop the vehicle. Parking on a flat area
When parking on a flat area, stop the engine
and shift the drive select lever into the neutral
position. Apply the parking brake to help pre-
vent the vehicle from rolling.
Parking on a slope
The parking brake acts only on the rear
wheels when in “2WD”. For the parking brake
to take effect on all four wheels, shift to
“DIFF LOCK” before stopping the engine.
If you park on a hill that is too steep the vehi-
cle may roll out of control. Never park on hills
that are so steep you cannot walk up them
easily. If you must park on an incline follow
these instructions:
1. Bring the vehicle to a stop by applying the
brake pedal.
2. Put the vehicle in “DIFF LOCK”.
3. Turn the key to “ ” (off).
