One copy of the Line Set Ticket is included in the literature
provided with the vehicle. When replacement parts are required,
take this copy with you to positively identify vehicle components
to be sure of getting the correct parts.

Vehicle Storage Instructions
When a vehicle is not used for an extended period of time,
precautions must be taken to prevent deterioration of vehicle
components.
Vehicles that are out of service for extended
periods of time can experience corrosion and other undesirable
effects. Drive vehicle monthly to exercise the brakes, driveline,
and steering. Run the vehicle long enough for the engine to
reach operating temperature.
NOTE: Losses occurring to a unit while it is in storage will
not be considered for warranty reimbursement.
Storage Duration - One Month or Less
1.
Wash vehicles as necessary. Always wash vehicles that
have been exposed to road salt.
NOTE: Washing Instructions - Wash the vehicle with warm
water and mild soap, then wipe wet surfaces with a chamois
or soft cloth. DO NOT use hot water or strong soaps or
detergents. DO NOT wash the vehicle in direct sun, or when
the sheet metal is hot to the touch. This will streak the finish.
DO NOT wipe dirt off dry surfaces, as this will scratch the
finish.
NOTE: When vehicles are stored outside, particularly in
coastal areas (salt water and high humidity atmosphere)
or other areas of corrosive environment, paint and bright
metal may require frequent washing and waxing to prevent
deterioration.
Determining washing frequency is the
customer’s responsibility.
NOTE: For vehicles exposed to ultraviolet rays of the sun,
apply a coating of Bon-Ami
®
soap, or similar product, to the
inside surfaces of the windshield and windows, to shade the
interior and prevent fading of the interior trim.
2.
Inspect painted surfaces; touch up all exposed primed or raw
metal areas to prevent rust.
3.
Apply a thick coat of wax to prevent discoloration from the
elements; wax all chrome and stainless steel metal parts.
4.
Check the radiator coolant for proper level and adequate
freeze protection. 20°F (-29°C) is standard for medium-duty
models and bus chassis; -40°F (-40°C) is standard for
heavy-duty models.
5.
Cover open ends of vertical exhaust stack(s).
6.
Drain air brake reservoirs and close the drain cocks.
