180 INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS
STORAGE COMPARTMENTS
DANGER
Heavy objects must be stored only in the
outside storage areas or secured on the
floor. Cabinets and storage compartments
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. Overloading the suspension
leads to poor ride and lowered driving
comfort.
To prevent the television and microwave oven from moving when the vehicle is driven, the
strap in the storage area should be tight around the unit. Position the strap across the front
corners of the unit. Periodically, check that the strap is tight and retighten as necessary.
