Danger.
If the drive-off lock is not used as inten-
ded, the vehicle could roll away. This
could result in an accident with serious or
fatal injuries. For this reason, the parking
brake must always be applied before you
start/stop the engine or leave the driver-
’s area. Do not use the drive-off lock to
park the bus or secure the bus against
rolling away under any circumstances. En-
gage the parking brake when stopping on
steep uphill or downhill gradients of more
than 15 % and at bus stops on steep up-
hill or downhill gradients of more than
15 %.
