Fuel Cut-Off Switch

If your motorhome is involved in a collision, an inertia switch
in the fuel pump circuit may open, shutting down the flow of
fuel to the engine. This is a safety feature designed to reduce
fuel spillage as a result of an accident or collision. When this
inertia switch has been activated, it is necessary to manually
reset it before the motorhome can be restarted and moved.
Review the vehicle manufacturer's owner's manual for
instructions regarding the fuel cut-off switch, what to do in
case of an accident, and when it is safe to reset the switch.

Front Air Bags

WARNING
WARNING
Your motorhome may be equipped with an air bag
restraint system. Follow all air bag instructions
provided by the chassis manufacturer including all
warnings regarding the placement and safety of child
and infant passengers.
Failure to do so can result in serious injury or death.
If the vehicle is equipped with front passenger air-bags, ensure
that the air bag system is appropriately set for the size and
weight of the front passenger. Refer to the chassis manufacturer's
owner's manual for front air bag operation.

Driver and Front Passenger Seats

WARNING
WARNING
All swivel seats located in the cab of the vehicle (driver
and front passenger) must be in the locked, upright and
forward-facing position while the vehicle is in motion
and seats are occupied.
Driver, front passenger and all occupants must always
wear seat belts while the vehicle is in motion.
Failure to do so can result in serious injury or death.
For comfort and convenience, your motorhome may be
equipped with tilt and swivel seats in the cockpit area. These
features are designed to only be used when the motorhome
is parked. Before travel or moving the motorhome, ensure
all front seat backs are returned to an up-right position and
swiveled to their forward-facing position.
Some TMC motorhomes include tilt and swivel seating in
the coach area. If these seats are equipped with seat belts and
intended for passenger occupation while the vehicle is in
motion, then these seats must also be returned to an up-right
and swivel-locked position before travel.
