of the buckle. Never use a belt for more than
one person at a time.
Child Restraint
All vehicle occupants, and especially children, should
be restrained whenever riding in vehicles. Holding a
child in your arms is not a substitute for seat belts or a
child restraint system. Child restraint systems are de-
signed to be secured in the vehicle seats by lap belts.
Children could be endangered in a crash if their child
restraints are not properly secured in the vehicle.
When using any child restraint system, be sure to read
and follow all instructions on installation and use that
come with the system.
When securing a child restraint with a lap belt that has
no retractor, pull the excess webbing through the ad-
justment mechanism.
If the child restraint is still not secure, use a different
seating position in the vehicle and/or contact your
dealer and the child restraint manufacturer for help.
DRIVING AND PARKING
Once you become accustomed to the feel of the con-
trols and the reference points from the driver's seat, you
will find' driving a motor home comparable to driving
your family car. Become familiar with the pOSition of the
motor home in traffic, and be cautious when maneuver-
ing to allow for the length and width of the vehicle.
Always allow room to corner and Jo change lanes.
Learn to use the side and rear view mirrors to view the
road behind.
