COCKPIT AND DRIVER'S CONTROLS
Consult Chevrolet or Ford Chassis Operator's
Manual for details.
Cruise Control
See Chassis Operator's Manual.
WARNING: Do not use the cruise control on slip-
pery roads or in congested traffic.
Auxiliary Start System
The Auxiliary Start System permits using the aux-
iliary battery (see Electrical System) to start the motor
home engine if the main vehicle battery is discharg-
ed. To use the Auxiliary Start System:
1. Be sure the vehicle is stopped, shift to "P" (PARK)
and apply the parking brake.
2. Press and hold the Auxiliary Start switch on the
instrument panel.
3. Start engine with ignition switch.
4. Release Auxiliary Start switch.
The Auxiliary Start System has no effect on the
vehicle except to aid in starting the motor home
engine. If the vehicle alternator is operating properly,
the batteries will be recharged while driving (see Elec-
trical System).
Driver/Passenger Seats
The driver's and passenger's seats offer four posi-
tion/comfort adjustments:
CAUTION: Do not adjust the seat position while
the vehicle is in motion.
*
Forward/Back - The forward/back lever is located
under the front left of the seat.
Pull the lever toward the left outside of the seat
to unlock. Release the lock lever to secure the seat
position.
*
Swivel - The swivel lock lever is located under
the front right of the seat.
Lift the lever forward and up to swivel. The seat
locks in the center, forward position. When unlock-
ed, the seat will swivel freely around to the center
position.

Seat Belts
Seat belts are an important safety feature of your
vehicle. For your protection, always use your seat
7
belts. The driver's seat and other seats designed to
carry passengers while under way have been equipped
with seat belts.
WARNING: All riders should be furnished with
and use seat belts while the vehicle is in mo-
tion. Seats which are not equipeed with safety
belts should not be occupied while the vehicle
is in motion and will be labeled: "NOT FOR USE
WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION." It is not
possible to belt in persons using beds.
Adjust seat belts as follows:
*
Pivot buckle at right angles to the belt and pull
to the desired length.
*
To fasten belt, be sure it is not twisted, then push
the tongue end of one belt into the buckle of the
mating belt. Be sure it latches. Adjust the belt
snugly as low on the abdomen as comfort will
allow, for greatest safety.
*
To release the belt, depress the button in the center
of the buckle and slide the tongue out 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
a child restraint system. In an accident, a child held
in a person's arms can be struck or crushed by any
unrestrained rider. An unrestrained child could also
be injured by striking the interior, or by being thrown
from the vehicle during a sudden maneuver or im-
pact. A child restraint system can help protect a child
while riding in a vehicle. Child restraint systems are
designed to be secured in the vehicle seats by lap
belts or the lap portion of a lap-shoulder belt. Children
could be endangered in a crash if their child restraints
are not properly secured in the vehicle.
Children small enough for a child restraint system
should be restrained that way if at all possible.
However, the following may provide some degree of
protection if a child restraint is not used.
*
Infants who cannot sit up should be placed in a
padded baby carrier. Put it crosswise on the vehicle
seat and securely restrain it with the vehicle's seat
belts.
*
Children who can sit up by themselves should be
restrained with the seat belts provided. Never let a
child stand or kneel on any seat.
When using any child restraint system, be sure to read
