5.1 Handbrake
Firmly apply the handbrake when parking the vehicle.
5.2 Entrance step
In order to exit the vehicle, first fully extend the entrance step. Observe the
indicator lamp on the dashboard.
For operating the entrance step, see section 3.6.
5.3 Ramps
To enable the vehicle to be parked on the level, ramps can be used for height
compensation when the vehicle is parked on a hill or on uneven ground.
5.4 Wheel chocks
When parking the vehicle on slopes or inclines use the wheel chocks.
If the maximum permissible gross weight of the vehicle exceeds 4 tonnes,
wheel chocks must be used when parking on gradients. The wheel chocks are
provided as standard for vehicles with a maximum permissible gross weight
exceeding 4 tonnes.
Z Pitch the vehicle so that it is as horizontal as possible. Use ramps where
necessary. Otherwise, the water from the shower tray will not be able to
drain properly.
Z Secure the vehicle to prevent it from rolling.
Z Animals (especially mice) can cause great damage to the interior of the
vehicle. To prevent this from happening, regularly check the vehicle for
damages or animal traces after pitching.
Z Ramps are not included in the scope of delivery. Different models are avail-
able from accessory shops.
