manually.

WHEELCHAIR LIFT ACCESS DOORS

To open the optional wheelchair lift access
doors, the coach must be parked on a flat and
level surface with the parking brake on. Using
the exterior compartment doors key, unlock and
carefully lower the lift mechanism access door
which is part of the baggage compartment door.
The lift mechanism access door is located
directly below the wheelchair access door. A
handle at the left of the lift mechanism unlocks
and enables opening of the wheelchair access
door. If the parking brake is not activated, a
switch in the door will activate the parking brake
when it detects the door is open.
