SAFETY INFORMATION

ADVISORY LABELS
Throughout this book you will find paragraphs labeled Danger,
Warning, Caution, Note and Service Hint. Danger, Caution and
Warning labels are also found in various locations on the vehicle to
alert drivers, operators and service technicians to situations which can
cause personal injury or equipment damage. The labels shown are
applicable to the VN model chassis at the time of publication and are
representative of what can be typically found on a VHD. (Your vehicle
may not contain all of the labels illustrated in this handbook.) These
labels are for your benefit. Please look through this section and note
the labels, their locations and what they explain. Be sure to replace any
label that is damaged.
CAB ENTRY AND EXIT
General
DO NOT stand on the steps or any other part of the
vehicle while it is in motion. The steps and the
back of cab access deck plates are only for
entering/exiting the vehicle and not for riding on.
Failure to heed this warning can result in serious
personal injury or death.
Steps are designed to be slip resistant and to
provide a stable surface for entering or exiting the
cab. However, accumulation of ice, dirt, lubricants,
etc. on the steps can make entering or exiting
hazardous. Always make sure the steps are free
from slippery substances. Failure to follow this
guideline may result in a fall that can cause
serious personal injury or death.
