How To Operate Your Seat Belts and Restraint System
Take Cover
•
If straight line winds or the threat of tornado(s) are in the forecast, leave the RV, and find a local storm shelter.
•
If you are driving and severe weather or a tornado pops up, park the RV in a safe location (not under a bridge or
overpass), lay down away from windows, and cover your head.
•
In the event of heavy rain or floodwaters, do not attempt to drive through water that is crossing a road. TURN AROUND;
DON’T DROWN.
•
If parked, try to avoid surrounding trees or power lines. Secure all loose belongings that could blow away. Bring them
inside the RV or store them securely in a basement compartment before a storm hits to prevent physical damage to you
or the RV.
•
Retract all awnings to prevent wind and water damage.
•
Find out where local storm shelters are and have an evacuation plan in place.
•
Pack an emergency bag of necessities (i.e. medical supplies, important documents, cell phone chargers, water, non-
perishable food, etc.).
Your coach can protect you from most severe weather, but it is not always the safest option.
•
If there is a threat (even a small one) of severe weather, plan indoor activities in a safe, sheltered place. Be prepared;
have a plan in place; and use good judgment.
Seat Belt Safety
This article provides information about the seat belts installed in the coach, including operation and care and maintenance
instructions.
One of the most important safety features in your vehicle is the restraint system. Research has shown that seat belts save
lives. And they can reduce the seriousness of injuries in a collision. Some of the worst injuries happen when people are
thrown from the vehicle. Everyone in a motor vehicle needs to be buckled up at all times.
It is extremely dangerous to ride in a cargo area, inside or outside of a vehicle. In a collision, people riding in these
areas are more likely to be seriously injured or killed. Do not allow people to ride in any area of your vehicle that is not
equipped with seats and seat belts. Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and is using a seat belt properly.
WARNING
!
If you wear your safety belt improperly, both the e
ff
ectiveness and comfort will decrease.
