Roof Vent / Hatch
When using the vent, push upward at the locations marked on
the hatch.
Open the hatch by turning the RED knob to the 2 position, then
push upward on the knob. Make sure the printed operating
instructions are present and visible at all times. Inspect every
emergency exit for proper operation every day. The emergency
hatch type may be different in your bus. If your emergency hatch
is different, become completely familiar with its operation before
driving the bus.
Vandal Locks (If Equipped)
The optional vandal lock mechanism is used to lock access
doors, rear emergency window, and roof hatches to prevent
unauthorized access to the bus while not in use. Vandal locks
can be provided on front entrance doors, side emergency door,
rear emergency window, roof hatches, and lift doors.
On the side emergency door, the vandal lock is a dead bolt lock
that the driver slides in place to secure the bus from unwanted
vehicle access.
On the rear emergency window, the driver uses the vandal lock
handle to slide the lock in place.
The vandal lock, for the front entrance door, is engaged with a
standard-looking door key, which is rotated clockwise to lock the
door and counterclockwise to unlock the door.
Vandal locks for all emergency exits include ignition starter
interlocks. The front entrance door vandal lock may include an
ignition starter interlock.
Vandal Locks with Starter Interlock (If Equipped)
NOTE: Once the bus engine is running, the vandal lock /
starter interlock will not stop the bus, but it will prevent it
from restarting when the lock is engaged. The alarm will be
activated to alert the driver.
As an extra measure of security, the bus may be equipped with
the optional vandal lock feature with starter interlock.
