3.11 Optional equipment
MITSUBISHI FUSO recommends using equipment
available as option codes to adapt the vehicle to the
body optimally.
All code-specific special equipment is available from
an authorized MITSUBISHI FUSO dealer or the
department responsible É 2.1.
Optional equipment (e.g. , anti-roll bars, etc.) or
retrofitted equipment increases the unladen weight of
the vehicle.
When chassis are fitted with different springs or tire
sizes, the frame height can change considerably in
both the laden and unladen state.
The actual vehicle weight and axle loads must be
determined by weighing before mounting.
Not all optional equipment can be installed in any
vehicle without problems. This applies, in particular,
for retrofitted equipment because the installation
space may already be occupied by other components
or the special equipment may require other
components.
If the current value falls outside the specified range
when body building and modification work are
performed for electrical parts, a fault is detected,
causing a warning lamp to go on and remain on or a
function not to operate.
• If an electrical part is to be added or a lamp is to be
replaced with an LED lamp, the current value of the
electrical part should be ensured to fall within a
specified range. This is, however, does not
guarantee that the electrical part to be mounted
will be fully operational when its current value falls
within the specified range.
• For the specified current value, ask an authorized
MITSUBISHI FUSO dealer or the department
responsible É 2.1.
• Some electrical parts to be mounted require that
the SAM control unit parameters be changed. For
the electrical parts to be mounted, see "8.1.2
Signal detection and actuation module-related
parts" É 8.1.2.
Ask an authorized MITSUBISHI FUSO dealer.
• When adding or replacing a lighting unit, be sure to
mount one that complies with the applicable laws
and regulations, and observe the regulations
governing visibility.
a Risk of accident and injury
The use of parts, assemblies or conversion parts
and accessories which have not been approved
may jeopardize the safety of the vehicle.
Before installing any attachments, special-purpose
bodies, equipment or carrying out any
modifications to the basic vehicle and/or its
assemblies, you must read the relevant sections of
the vehicle Instruction Manual, as well as the
operating and assembly instructions issued by the
manufacturer of the accessories and items of
optional equipment.
You could otherwise fail to recognize dangers,
which could result in injury to yourself or others.
