ACTIVE DRIVING
BRAKING / STOPPING
Always allow plenty of room and time to stop your UXV500 safely.
Be alert and prepared, as quick stops are inevitable. Whether you
are stopping slowly or stopping quickly, follow these braking guide-
lines:
1. Press down on the brake pedal with your foot to apply the brakes
2. If your wheels lock, release the brake pedal for a second, then
apply the brakes again.
3. Avoid prolonged application of the brakes. Even maintaining
minimal pressure on the brake pedal will cause the brake pads
to drag on the brake rotor and may cause overheating of the
brake fluid.
Prolonged and repetitive use of the vehicle’s hydraulic
brakes for high speed stops will cause overheating of the
brake fluid and premature brake pad wear which can cause
unexpected loss of braking ability.
Use only KYMCO approved brake fluid. Never substitute
or mix different types or grades of brake fluid, as unex-
pected loss of braking ability can result. Check the vehicle's
brake fluid level and pad wear before each use. The loss of
braking ability may result in severe injury or even death.
SHIFTING
This KYMCO Side-by-Side vehicle is equipped with an automatic,
dual-range transmission with reverse capability. To shift your
UXV500 into gear or reverse, follow these steps:
1. To engage the HIGH range from neutral, move the shift lever
forward.
NOTE: The LOW range is for carrying heavy loads or
trailer towing. Compared to HIGH range, the LOW range
position provides slower speed and greater torque to
the wheels.

NOTE: The HIGH range is for normal driving with light

2. To engage the LOW range from HIGH range, move the shift
lever outward and forward.
