Section 2: Occupant Safety

Fire Safety

If a fire does start, follow these basic safety rules:

Evacuate the vehicle immediately and call 911.

After everyone is accounted for, check the fire to see if you can attempt to put it out.

If it is large, or the fire is fuel-fed, get clear of the vehicle and have the Fire Department

handle the emergency.

Do not attempt to use water to put out the fire. Water can spread some types of fire, and

electrocution is possible with an electrical fire.

Refer to the following sections for additional fire safety information.



Electrical Systems,

In case of an electrical fire.



Appliances,

In case of a grease fire.

Fire Extinguisher

Fire extinguishers are classified and rated by fire type, A, B and C. These classifications

identify the kinds of fires or burning materials they are designed to fight.

Class A -

Solid materials such as wood, paper, cloth, rubber and some plastics.

Class B -

Liquids such as grease, cooking oils, gasoline, kerosene or other flammable liq

uids.

Class C -

Electrical such as electrical wires or other live electrical equipment.

A dry chemical fire extinguisher has been installed by the entrance door. It is suitable for

extinguishing small fires of the Class B or C type only.

We suggest you become thoroughly familiar with the operating instructions displayed on the

side of the fire extinguisher.

NOTE: For information on how to use your fire extinguisher, refer to the fire

extinguisher user’s manual included in your warranty packet.

Inspection and maintenance

Read and follow all instructions on the label and user’s manual provided by the fire extin

guisher manufacturer.

NOTE: Inspect the extinguisher at least once a week (more frequently if it is

exposed to weather or possible tampering). This should also be done before

beginning a vacation or during an extended trip.

Lever style latch

Remove the screen by pulling the red tab (upper right arrow).

Pull the lever out from the sash clamps. Swing the lever out so it
is positioned straight out from the window. Push the lever (and
window) out to open and exit the vehicle.
