Loading Cargo - Mitsubishi Fuso CANTER Owner's Handbook Manual

If the gearshift lever is moved to the "R" position
while the engine is running, the buzzer sounds
intermittently.
Always stop the engine with the gearshift lever in
the "P" position.
CAUTION
•
Before stopping the engine, allow it to idle
so the coolant temperature comes down.
Engine parts are particularly hot immediately
after the vehicle has been driven uphill or on
an expressway. Let the engine idle for at
least three minutes.
•
Leaving the vehicle to stand a long time with
the starter switch in the "ON" or "ACC" posi-
tion could result in a dead battery.
•
Be sure to turn off all lights after parking to
prevent drainage of the battery.
6. If parking on a slope is unavoidable, block the
wheels securely with chocks and take any other
necessary measures to prevent the vehicle from
moving.

Loading cargo

1 Avoid overloading the vehicle.
Overloading the vehicle causes braking perform-
ance to deteriorate and can thus cause an accident.
Also, overloading the vehicle places excessive
stress on vehicle parts, shortening their service
lives.
Some local regulations specify the maximum gross
vehicle weight (GVW). You should strictly observe
these regulations.
2 How to load cargo
Improperly loaded cargo not only is unstable but
also may result in uneven weight distribution which
could damage the cargo deck and frame.
