NOTE
:
Indicates special point of information.
Listed below are some safety precautions that
must be adhered to. These precautions as well as
others that involve damage to equipment are also
listed in the appropriate areas in this manual.
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 in a low and snug position so the
force exerted by the belt in a collision will be
spread across the strong hip area. Pregnant
women should wear a lap-shoulder belt
whenever possible, with the lap belt portion
worn low and snug throughout the pregnan-
cy.
•
All moveable or swiveling seats should be
placed and locked in forward facing positions
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, but do not use except in an
emergency.
•
Ι
nspect the fire extinguisher monthly for
proper charge and operating condition. This
should also be done before beginning a vaca-
tion or any extended trip.
DRIVING
•
Do not attempt to adjust the driver’s seat
while the vehicle is moving.
•
Do not adjust tilt steering in a moving vehi-
cle.
•
Do not operate the cruise control on icy or ex-
tremely 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.
•
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.
CAUTION
Indicates that a failure to observe can
cause damage to vehicle or equip-
ment
