STAY ALERT

You must be just as careful and alert while driving on
guidance as you are when driving with manual steering.
• Start slowly and look where you're going.
• Always be prepared to steer manually.
• Make sure there is nothing in your path, on the floor or

sticking out of the racks.

LISTEN FOR THE "BEEP", CHECK THE DISPLAY

• Take control of the steering any time the red light is on.
• Check the display if you hear a "beep".

END OF AISLE CONTROL OPTION

With this feature, your truck will either slow down or stop
automatically when it comes to the end of an aisle.  You
will hear a "beep", and the indicator light will turn on.

If the truck stops: let up on the accelerator, press the
override button and resume travel.

FOR MANUAL STEERING

Take control of steering, push the guidance switch to OFF.

Note:  

Whenever guidance is OFF, the red light on the

display will flash and the alarm will "beep", at a slow rate,
to remind you that you are in manual steering.

When the truck senses a guidance wire, the rate of both
the "beeping" and the flashing will speed up, to notify you
that a wire is near.  To acquire the wire, see page 31.
