[edit] Keys
The key for the cab door is in the work area, immediately to the right as you enter, stored on a hook. There is a separate key for the cab door and the ignition (marked).
[edit] Checklist
There is a checklist on the passenger seat on clipboard. Use it.
[edit] Starting
The automatic transmission must be in "N" (Neutral) to start the vehicle. There is no "P" (Park).
[edit] Parking Brake
The parking brake is a large yellow square-handled control to the bottom right of the steering wheel. Push it in to release.
While the engine is running pull it to engage. It uses a hydraulic assist on the brakes. (Not sure I have the right terminology.) You may feel it push back on the brake pedal when you use it. A buzzer will sound if the parking brake is engaged while the engine is running. This is a reminder to release the parking brake.
Because the vehicle uses hydraulic assist, many people think that you require a Class 3 license to drive it. We've checked, and because it's a parking break, you only need Class 5.
[edit] Parking
When you park the vehicle,
- Pull out the yellow-handled Parking Brake while the ignition is running (you'll hear a buzz)
- Turn off the ignition
- Put the Transmission in D (Drive).
[edit] Refueling
We refuel at Petrocan at the east end of Main Street. The card to use the pumps is kept on the clipboard.
