Emergency Pushout Windows
Depending on body model there may be as many as six pushout windows in the passenger area of the bus. Pushout windows are provide as
emergency exits in accordance with state specification. Emergency exits are clearly identified by the words “EMERGENCY EXIT” and the red
release handle at the rear edge of the window. Vertical hinged pushout windows are hinged at the front side and swing outward like a gate.
To open the pushout window, rotate the red handle parallel to the glass and away from the window frame, as indicated by the nearby
decal. Then push the window outward.
The emergency windows should be operated
daily as part of the Driver’s pre-trip inspection. A
light spray lubricant may be used on the window
latches and hinges to keep them in smooth oper-
ating condition.
