Starting and driving Precautions when setting the vehicle in motion • Do not carry containers of fuel or spray cans in the cabin. WARNING Carrying fuel in the cabin is extremely dan- Z11316 gerous because an increase in the cabin tem- perature could cause fuel vapor to catch fire or cause the container to rupture.
Page 104: Precautions For Driving
Precautions for driving Observe the following precautions while driving. Should you notice anything unusual about the vehi- cle, immediately stop the vehicle in a safe place and inspect the relevant sections to find the cause of the trouble. If you are unable to identify the cause of the trouble or unable to do the repairs yourself, call an authorized dealer.
Page 105 Starting and driving • Avoid making sharp turns and braking hard except in emergencies. Doing so during high- speed driving could cause the vehicle to tip over. • Avoid accelerating sharply on slippery roads since this could make the tires slip and impair directional stability.
Page 106: Precautions When Driving A Manual Transmission Vehicle
• When driving at high speeds in the rain, it some- times happens that the tires ride on a film of water and lose contact with the road surface. This is known as “hydroplaning”. If this should happen, you will lose control of both steering and braking.
Page 107: Precautions When Driving An Automatic Transmission Vehicle
Starting and driving • Do not operate the vehicle with the clutch disengaged or the gearshift lever in neutral. Doing so will render the engine braking and exhaust brake features ineffective, forcing you to rely only on the service brakes and overusing them in the process.

Page 112: On Rough Roads And In Bad Weather
7-11 • First decelerate the engine sufficiently before downshifting. Downshifting more than two gears at a time or downshifting at a high engine speed could cause the engine to overrev. Generally speaking, you should decelerate to roughly 1‚600 rpm before downshifting. For safety in an automatic transmission vehicle, the transmission will automatically refuse to shift down if the vehicle is moving too fast.
Page 113 7-12 Starting and driving • Drive very slowly on bumpy roads and take care not to allow the undercarriage to bottom out. When the diesel particulate filter (DPF) strikes a rock or other obstacle, its internal catalyst and ceramic filter may be damaged. Have it checked by an authorized dealer.
Page 114: Parking
7-13 Parking WARNING • Park the vehicle on the flattest available surface. Avoid parking on slopes. When you cannot avoid parking on a slope, apply chocks to the wheels. You can further improve safety by leaving the steering wheel turned so the vehicle will roll toward an obstacle (for example, a Z11324 curbstone) in the unlikely event of move-...
Page 115 7-14 Starting and driving 1. Depress the brake pedal to bring the vehicle to a complete halt. 2. Parking procedures vary depending on the type of transmission used on the vehicle. Proceed as follows. • On a vehicle with manual transmission, move the gear shift lever to the “neutral”...
Page 116: Loading Cargo
7-15 5. If parking on a slope is unavoidable, block the wheels securely with chocks and take other nec- essary measures to prevent the vehicle from moving. Loading cargo 1 Do not overload the vehicle. • Overloading places undue stress on the vehicle and shortens its service life.
Page 117 7-16 Starting and driving WARNING • When roping up cargo or covering it with a tarpaulin, make sure that neither the rope nor the end of the tarpaulin hang down between the cab and the cargo deck as a loosely hanging rope or tarpaulin could catch fire from the engine heat.

Page 147: Coolant
11-2 In cold weather Coolant • When vehicles are shipped from the factory, genuine FUSO DIESEL LONGLIFE COOLANT is added to the coolant in their cooling systems. This additive combines both antifreeze and anti- rust capabilities to sufficiently protect the cooling system from freezing up.
Page 148: Fuels
11-3 Fuels Ordinary diesel fuel gels in freezing temperatures, making it impossible to start the engine. If you are bound for a cold area, it is recommended that you fuel your vehicle so that it burns more than half the fuel by the time you reach your destination. This allows you to refuel with a grade of diesel fuel appropriate to the colder weather conditions.
Page 149: Installing Tire Chains
11-4 In cold weather • Do not apply the parking brake in extremely cold conditions that could cause it to freeze up and become impossible to release. In such condi- tions, take the following steps: 1. Set the parking brake. Never park on a slope.
