Clutch Pedal

Depress the clutch pedal (disengage the clutch) before shifting gears. For smooth clutch operation, depress the pedal quickly and release it gradually.
  • To disengage the clutch, press the pedal toward the floor.
  • To engage the clutch, gradually release the clutch pedal.

Brake Pedal

Depress the brake pedal to slow or stop the vehicle. Apply the brakes while starting the engine.
NOTE
The SLINGSHOT brakes are not power-assisted. Braking the SLINGSHOT may feel different than braking other types of vehicles. Practice braking in a safe area to become familiar with the feel of the SLINGSHOT brakes before driving in traffic.

Throttle Pedal

Depress the throttle pedal to increase engine speed and (when the transmission is in gear) vehicle speed. Spring pressure returns the pedal to the rest position when released. Always check that the throttle pedal returns normally before starting the engine.
