SECTION 2 - SAFETY AND PRECAUTIONS
2-1 GENERAL WARNINGS
Only seats equipped with seat belts are to be occupied while the vehicle is moving.
Make sure all passengers have seat belts fastened. Lap belts should fit low on the hips and
upper thighs. The shoulder belt should be positioned snug over the shoulder.
For pregnant women: Never place the
shoulder belt behind your back or under your arm. Adjust the lap belt across your hips/ pelvis,
and below your belly. Place the shoulder belt across your chest (between your breasts) and
away from your neck.
Child restraints should be installed properly according to manufacturer's instructions. See
"
Child
Restraints".
All moveable or swiveling seats should be placed and locked in travel position while the vehicle
is moving.
Never let passengers stand or kneel on seats while the vehicle is moving.
Sleeping facilities are not to be utilized while vehicle is moving.
Examine the escape window and be familiar with its operation.
Inspect the fire extinguisher monthly for
proper charge and operating condition. This should also be done before beginning a vacation or
any extended trip.
2-1 DRIVING SAFETY
Do not attempt to adjust the driver's seat while the vehicle is moving.
Do not adjust tilt steering in a moving vehicle.
Do not operate the cruise control on icy or extremely wet roads, winding roads, in heavy traffic,
or in any other traffic situation where a constant speed cannot be maintained.
Use care when accelerating or decelerating on a slippery surface. Abrupt speed changes can
cause skidding and loss of control.
Never drive the vehicle with a slide- out room extended.
Driving through water deep enough to wet the brakes may affect stopping distance or cause the
vehicle to pull to one side. Check brake operation in a safe area to be sure they have not been
affected. Never operate any vehicle if a difference in braking efficiency is noticeable.
Adverse weather conditions and extremes in terrain may affect handling and/or performance of
your vehicle. Refer to your chassis manual for
complete and related information on driving your
vehicle.
