PART 5: SEAT AND RESTRAINT SYSTEMS SEAT BELTS AND THEIR PROPER USE
(R10/06) Y53-6007 – 61 –
• The upper rear wall: Access to the bunk is easiest
when these connections are buckled and the front
buckle is detached.
• The side walls: The tenting straps are attached to the
side wall sills with easy-to-use buckles.
• The lower rear wall: The restraint is attached to the
lower rear wall by bolts that do not require removal for
use or stowage of the bunk restraint.
You will notice that if your Peterbilt has an upper bunk, it
has no restraint device. This is because no one should
ever be in an upper bunk when the vehicle is moving.
WARNING!
• In an accident an unrestrained person lying in
a sleeper bunk could be seriously injured. He
or she could be thrown from the bunk. Be
sure anyone occupying the sleeper is
restrained while a vehicle is moving.
• Be sure that no one ever rides in the upper
bunk. That person would be thrown out in
an accident and could be very seriously
injured.
Passengers
Anyone riding in your vehicle should wear a seat belt. The
responsible operator sees to it that everyone in the vehicle
rides safely - and that means with a seat belt.
