WARNING
If you leave children unattended in the vehi-
cle,
they could set the vehicle in motion by, for
example:
R
releasing the parking brake
R
shifting the transmission into neutral
R
starting the engine
They could also operate the vehicle's equip-
ment and become trapped. There is a risk of
an accident and injury.
When leaving the vehicle, always take the key
with you and lock the vehicle. Never leave
children unattended in the vehicle.
Ensure that you observe the safety notes in
the "Children in the vehicle" section
(Y page 55).
Safe entry and exit from the vehicle can only
be guaranteed if you use the grab handles and
steps. Only these are designed to withstand
the necessary weight. Do not jump down from
the cab.
Keep steps, door sills, grab handles and foot-
wear free from dirt, such as:
R
mud
R
clay
R
snow
R
ice
This increases the safety of your footing.
