SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
To ensure safe and reliable operation, take note
of the safety precautions as follows:
a) Operation and maintenance of the coach
must be performed only by qualified
personnel.
b) Use caution when embarking and
disembarking passengers.
c) Always pay attention to pedestrians passing
in front and behind the coach. Always yield
to pedestrians at pedestrian walkways.
d) Inspect the coach before operating.
e) Make sure good visibility is maintained at all
times. Keep windshields clean and free of
obstructions.
f) Make sure all doors are closed and secure
before operating the coach. Before driving,
conduct a walkaround inspection to check for
security of all baggage compartment doors
and equipment access doors.
g) Adjust the driver's seat so that all controls
can be reached easily.
h) Always wear the safety belt when driving.
i) Check the instrument panel frequently. Do
not operate the coach when dials or
indicators are not in the normal operating
condition.
j) Switch from high beams to low beams when
meeting or following other vehicles within 500
feet (150 meters).
k) Do not drive over obstacles on the road.
Empty cartons, piles of leaves, and
snowdrifts could conceal hidden dangers that
could damage the coach suspension and
underbody.
l) When turning or changing lanes, signal your
intention well in advance.
m) When approaching to make a right turn,
reduce the space between the coach and the
curb to make sure another vehicle cannot
pass on the right. Since the coach makes
wide turns, allow enough space to make safe
turns.
n) Never leave the coach unattended with the
engine running, or with the key in the ignition.
Turn off the engine, remove keys and apply
the parking brake before leaving the coach.
o) The service life of the coach depends on the
kind of maintenance it receives. Always
record any problems and report them
immediately to maintenance personnel.
p) Shut-off the engine before fueling, adding oil
or performing maintenance or servicing
tasks, unless stated otherwise.
q) Do not run the engine or HVAC system with
access doors left open. Close compartment
doors before operating any equipment.
r) Do not remove the surge tank filler cap or the
cooling system pressure cap when the
engine is hot. Let the engine cool down
before removing filler caps.
s) Fuel is highly flammable and explosive. Do
not smoke when refueling. Keep away from
open flames or sparks.
