22 Vehicle Access Cab Entry and Exit General WARNING Do not stand on the steps or any other part of the vehicle while it is in motion. The steps and the back of cab access deck plates are only for entering/exiting the vehicle and not for riding on. Failure to heed this warning can result in seri- ous personal injury or death. Both the operator and passenger should exercise caution when entering or exiting the cab. Use the steps and grab handles to safely get in and out of the cab to prevent injuries related to a slip and fall. WARNING Wearing shoes with soles that are dirty or wet increases the chance of slipping and falling. Be careful when entering the cab with dirty or wet soles.
Steps are designed to be slip resistant and to provide a stable surface for entering or exiting the cab. However, ac- cumulation of ice, dirt, lubricants, etc. on the steps can make entering or exit- ing hazardous. Always make sure the steps are free from slippery substances. Failure to follow this guideline may re- sult in a fall that can cause serious personal injury or death. W8000928 The steps on the vehicle are designed to conform with the requirements of 49 CFR 399. You should familiarize yourself with this Federal regulation.
