Exiting the Driver Side

em2 dm 02.03.002

Important: Do not attempt to exit the cab while carrying any items in your hands. Place them in an accessible location on the seat or cab floor and make sure they will not get in your way as you exit, then retrieve them after you have exited the cab.

Caution: Always face in when exiting the vehicle. Do not exit the vehicle as you would going down a flight of stairs as this makes it more likely you'll slip or lose your balance. In addition, if you slip when exiting the vehicle facing outwards there is a greater likelihood of personal injury.

  1. Grasp the steering wheel with your right hand, and the integrable door grab handle with your left hand, then place your left foot on the top step. See Fig..
