properly can lead to serious injury or death. As the

feet on the floorboard while seated upright with
their backs against the backrests.
Your passengers must be able to reach and
hold the handholds.
Allow no more than three passengers in the ve-
hicle and only in the designated passenger

4. Once the majority of the dirt has been hosed
off, wash all surfaces with warm water and
mild, detergent-type soap. An old toothbrush
or bottle brush is handy for hard-to-get-at
places.
5. Rinse the vehicle off immediately with clean
water and dry all surfaces with a clean cham-
ois towel or soft, absorbent cloth.
6. Clean the seats with a vinyl upholstery clean-
er to keep the covers pliable and glossy.
7. Automotive-type wax may be applied to all
painted and chrome-plated surfaces. Avoid
combination cleaner-waxes. Many contain
abrasives which may scratch the paint or pro-
tective finish. When finished, start the engine
and let it idle for several minutes.
