Safety Restraint Tips
•
Do not wear a belt over rigid or
breakable objects in or on your
clothing, such as eye glasses,
pens, keys, etc., as these may
cause injury in an accident.
•
Any authorized person sleeping
in your vehicle while it is moving
should use the bunk restraint.
•
Any authorized person sitting in
the sleeper area on the sofa bed
(if equipped) while it is moving
should wear a seat belt.
•
A responsible operator sees to it
that everyone in the vehicle rides
or sleeps safely. The operator
is responsible to inform any
passengers or co-drivers how to
properly use the seat belts and
bunk restraint in the vehicle.
•
Do not strap in more than one
person with each belt.
•
Keep seat belt and bunk restraint
buckles free of any obstruction
that may prevent secure locking.
•
Damaged or worn belts in the cab
or sleeper, subjected to excessive
stretch forces from normal wear,
must be replaced. They may
not protect you if you have an
accident.
•
Any belts or restraints that have
been subjected to an accident
should be inspected for any loose
(attaching) hardware or damaged
buckles.
•
If belts show damage to any part
of assembly, such as webbing,
bindings, buckles or retractors,
they must be replaced.
•
Do not allow safety belts (seat
or bunk) to become damaged by
getting caught in door, bunk or
seat hardware, or rubbing against
sharp objects.
