PREVOST XL2 User Manual

SAFETY FEATURES AND EQUIPMENT
Note: Only use the parking brakes to
supplement the service brakes to stop the
vehicle in emergency conditions. The stopping
distance will be considerably longer than when
using normal service brakes.
Note: Before releasing the parking brakes by
pushing down the control valve knob, check the
pressure gauges to make sure that the brake
system air pressure is greater than or equal to
95 psi (655 kPa).
Note: A beep will sound if the ignition switch
has been turned off without applying the parking
brakes. The same beep will sound if pressure is
still applied to the service brake pedal.
Note: The stoplights will automatically turn on
when the parking brake is applied and the
ignition key is turned to the ON position.
SAFETY EQUIPMENT
FIRE EXTINGUISHERS
Two fire extinguishers are located on the vehicle
L.H. side just behind the driver’s seat.
Instructions for use are found on the
extinguishers. Make sure you know how to
operate fire extinguishers in case of an
emergency.
FIRST AID KIT
The optional first aid kit is usually stored near
the driver’s seat. A white cross over red
background decal identifies the first aid kit.
WARNING REFLECTORS
A kit containing three triangular reflectors is
provided to warn other drivers on the road in
case of a breakdown. The kit is located on the
ceiling of the first R.H. side baggage
compartment, but may have been relocated by
the converter. The reflectors provide visible
warning of an emergency situation. The three
reflectors should be placed as indicated on the
box cover. These reflectors comply with
FMVSS 125 (Federal Motor Vehicle Safety
Standards).

A kit for jacking up the vehicle is stored in the
first R.H. side baggage compartment, attached
to the forward bulkhead of the compartment.
The kit includes a:
• 30 ton bottle jack;
• Bumper wrench;
• Wheel nut wrench and lever;
DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS
The low beams come ON automatically at
reduced intensity when the engine is started and
the parking brake is released. The daytime
running lights provide added safety by making
the traveling vehicle more visible to other
drivers.
The lights are not used when:
• Engine is stopped;
• Parking brake is applied;
• The exterior lighting switch is turned to the
OFF position.
Warning: Do not drive with the daytime running
lights at night. For night driving, turn ON the
headlights by depressing the exterior lighting
rocker switch to the second position. The
daytime running lights do not provide sufficient
illumination for safe driving at night.
FOG LIGHTS
Fog lights provide better visibility in fog and
precipitation. They improve visibility immediately
in front of the vehicle. They also provide added
safety.
