Cab Interior 185
Storage Compartment
Heavy objects must be stored secured to
the floor. Storage compartments are de-
signed for lighter personal effects only.
In the event of a collision, heavy, unse-
cured objects in overhead storage can
come loose and cause severe personal in-
jury or death to the driver or passengers.
WARNING
All items within the cab must be secured
before the vehicle is set in motion. This
includes, but is not limited to, drinks,
clothes, books, tools, etc. In the event of
a collision, loose items could fly around
inside the cab. This could cause personal
injury.
CAUTION
Do not overload the cab suspension.
Make sure the weight distribution is
equal in the cab. Total load for the cab
suspension is 800 lb (360 kg), with
driver and passenger included. Overload-
ing the suspension leads to poor ride and
a lowered driving comfort.
Front Overhead Storage
There are several combinations of the over-
head storage compartments mounted over
the windshield. The compartments are split
in the middle and they can be combined to
cover the whole width of the cab or just
over the driver.
The storage compartments have a maxi-
mum storage weight limit of approximately
18 lb (8 kg) per section. That is, the limit
covers each compartment section, either left
or right side.
