Before submitting a warranty claim on a battery, the battery must be charged to a full charge (refer to this owner’s guide for proper charging instructions) and should be load tested.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
NOTICE
It is the responsibility of the owner of this
cart to maintain the cart in a safe and
reliable condition at all times.
WARNING
- Never attempt to charge the batteries in this cart without using an electrical outlet that is protected by a GFCI.
- Replace charging cord if plug is damaged or if the cord is worn or frayed.
- Cart is designed for indoor use only.
- Operate cart on level surface only.
- Always disconnect power before servicing.
- Cart can roll. Enter and exit cart with care.
- See Operating Instructions posted on the cart.
- See Warnings posted on the cart.
- Keep this Guide for your reference.
WARNING
SEE DAILY MAINTENANCE CHECK LIST POSTED ON THE CART.
General items can include, but are not limited to:
- Horn – check for proper functionality and audible level. Horn should activate when pressed, and should sound when driving in reverse.
- Grips – Grips should not be easily twisted or removed.
- Cleanliness – Clean the cart daily, keeping it free from accumulation of grease, dirt, and other potentially combustible materials.
- Throttle Levers – Test for smooth “Start”, acceleration, deceleration, and “Stop”. Throttles should rotate in unison and return to neutral when released. Repair if necessary.
- Motor and Brake – Drive the cart in forward and then in reverse to ensure the motor is able to move the cart. To check brake function, with throttle in neutral, sit on cart and place each foot on the floor on each side of the cart and try to push the cart. The brake should prevent the motor wheel from turning. If the cart fails this test, remove from service. Note that if pushed hard enough the wheel may skid and the cart may slide.
- Battery – Check for visible damage to either the case or posts such as swelling, venting, cracking, melted case or terminals. If this condition is found, remove from service and replace the battery.
- ONE OCCUPANT ONLY!
- DO NOT EXCEED LOAD LIMITS: Rider – 550 lbs; Basket – 150lbs.
- Replace parts using only factory-specified, original equipment from the manufacturer for your specific model. Failure to do so may void warranty, affect operation of the cart, and result in injury.
FIRST STEPS
- Upon receipt, inspect all shipping containers/packaging for signs of damage immediately and note any with the carrier. File a freight claim with the carrier if damage has occurred
- Next, unbox your new Mart Cart E4 and remove all packaging.
- Move the Mart Cart to a location with a 115V, GFCI protected outlet and charge the cart for 24 hours, or until the 24 hour charge icon clears. The next screen you see will be the home screen.
CONTROL HEAD
OPERATION
To operate cart, make sure rider is seated and seat switch is engaged. Rotate throttle controls forward or backwards depending on direction of travel. Speed is controlled by rotating throttle. Cart will stop within 18 inches when throttle is let go.
LCD SCREEN
Mart Cart’s proprietary display uses international symbols and easy to understand graphics, providing important information at a glance for you and your customers.
Once the Mart Cart is unplugged and the operator is seated, the LCD screen will display the state of charge using the abbreviation SOC with a numerical percentage. When the throttle is engaged the percentage SOC will change to Hours of Operation noted by a number and HRS behind it. This easy to read and intuitive notation provides you and your customer with a clear understanding of how long the cart can be operated.
OPTION: GUARDIAN PERIMETER SYSTEM (GPS)
If your Evolution 4 is equipped with our anti-theft cart-containment system, the Guardian Perimeter System has been programmed to only operate within a specific area in and around your store. This system features two boundaries. The cart will operate normally passing through the first boundary, but the LCD screen will display a white turn around symbol.
While in this first boundary the horn will sound and cycle through a five second on, one second off routine until returned to the normal operating zone. If the operator continues driving and passes through the second boundary the turnaround icon color will change to red, the horn will sound continuously, and the cart will operate only for five seconds before stopping again. To return to normal operating zone the operator will have to release throttle after each five second cycle repeating sequence until cart is in normal operating zone. Cart may be driven backwards or forwards to return.
OPTION: CLEARPATH AVOIDANCE SYSTEM
The Clear Path Avoidance System is designed as a natural behavior avoidance system to reduce opportunities where riders hit objects in the store. If your E4 cart is equipped with this option the cart will automatically reduce speed when trailing someone in front or as it nears objects. Once clear of object or person in front the cart will resume normal speed. Cart will stop before hitting solid object should rider persist in maintaining course.
DEPLETED BATTERY
The Power Management System will prompt the LCD screen to display the battery icon when the cart battery is too low to operate. When this happens, charge the battery.
NOTE: The cart should be charged every night, all night, and at every opportunity
