Cab Interior and Sleeper
Storage Compartments
Heavy objects must be stored only in the
outside storage areas or secured on the
floor. Cabinets and storage compart-
ments are designed for clothing and
lighter personal effects only. In the event
of a collision, heavy, unsecured objects
in overhead storage can come loose and
cause severe personal injury or death to
the driver or passengers.
WARNING
All items within the cab must be secured
before the vehicle is set in motion. This
includes, but is not limited to, drinks,
clothes, books, televisions, etc. In the
event of a collision, loose items could
fly around inside the cab. This could
cause personal injury.
CAUTION
Do not overload the cab suspension.
Make sure the weight distribution is
equal in the cab. Total load for the cab
suspension in the daycab, VN-420,
VN-610 and VN-660 is 800 lb (360 kg),
with driver and passenger included. To-
tal load for the cab suspension in the
VN-770 is 1,000 lb (455 kg), with driver
and passenger included. Overloading the
suspension leads to poor ride and low-
ered driving comfort.
Front Overhead Storage
There are several combinations of the over-
head storage compartments mounted over
the windshield. The compartments are split
in the middle and they can be combined to
cover the whole width of the cab or just
over the driver.
The storage compartments have a maxi-
mum storage weight limit of approximately
18 lb (8 kg) per section. That is, the limit
covers each compartment section, either left
or right side.
