Ladder Extension
To use the ladder extension:
Unfold the bumper support and pin into
place as indicated on the photo below.
Hold the ladder extension horizontally with
the bumper pad pointing downward.
Slide the open ends of the C-shaped retainers
over the lowest ladder rung as shown in the
photo.
Lower the extension into place and push
downward while wiggling it slightly to ‘seat’
the retainers.
The ladder is now ready to use.
Reverse steps to remove and store.
STORAGE COMPARTMENT
DOORS
To ensure that exterior storage compartment
doors have latched properly, press firmly on the
bottom edges of the doors with the palms of your
hands. If the door is ajar you will hear and feel a
loud ‘click’ when the latches engage properly.
The high-density gaskets used on the exterior
storage compartments are designed to provide a
more positive seal against dust and weather.
Sometimes this seal firmness can inhibit com-
plete latching of the compartment doors if they
are simply ‘dropped shut’ or closing force is
applied only to the center of the door.
MOUNTAIN DRIVING
Special techniques must be used when driving
in mountainous or hilly country.
Climbing A Hill
The transmission will automatically down-
shift as needed to climb most hills. If the hill is
long or very steep, however, you may need to
manually shift to a lower gear to keep the trans-
mission from repeatedly upshifting and down-
shifting. Select the lowest adequate gear range
for the duration of the incline. See your chassis
operating guide for specific information.
Descending A Hill
When going down a long grade, you may need
to manually shift to a lower gear rather than keep-
ing your foot on the brake pedal. A lower gear
will allow the engine to provide a degree of brak-
ing action. Holding your foot on the brake pedal
for an extended period may cause brakes to over-
heat, which could cause you to lose control of the
vehicle. See your chassis operating guide for spe-
cific information.
Observe the engine temperature
gauge more frequently than normal.
If overheating occurs, pull off to the
side of the road and allow the engine
to thoroughly cool before refilling the
radiator and restarting the engine.
