Maintenance & Troubleshooting (Continued)
A commercial truck has extremely limited visibility. A large area behind the truck is
invisible even with rear view mirrors properly adjusted. The larger the truck, the larger
the blind spot areas. The driver must become familiar with the trucks blind spot area(s)
so that precautions can be taken to avoid backing accidents. The best assurance to
avoid an accident is by paying close attention to your surroundings. In order to in-
crease your chances of preventing a mishap, increase your level of awareness by con-
sidering the following:
(1) Stationary & Moving Objects: The driver sees Stationary Objects in the rear view
mirror before backing. However, as the truck backs, the objects may suddenly disap-
pear as the driver turns, or as these objects enter into the vehicles blind spot. No mat-
ter how careful a driver may be by checking behind before backing, a moving object
such as a child, car or crewmember can move into the trucks blind spot unnoticed by
the driver. This is an extreme hazard; consider this whenever a truck is placed in re-
verse.
(2) Never Backup without Concentrating: Backing is risky and requires the full atten-
tion and skill of the driver. If a driver is unsure or does not know where crewmembers
are or where objects are behind the truck, do not back. STOP! Get out of the cab and
physically check the area.
(3) Walk the Vehicle before Backing: Walk around the vehicle to check the clearanc-
es and search for hidden obstacles before backing. Be aware of objects that appear
above, in back and to the sides of the truck. Stop the vehicle and physically check the
area if in doubt of a safe clearance.
(4) Plan for Safety: Plan ahead to circumvent backing situations whenever possible.
Assign a helper to guide and signal in backing situations. Always keep the signal per-
son in view while backing to prevent hitting that person.
(5) Proceed Slowly: Always back slowly so that the truck can be stopped immediately,
if necessary. Slow backing will minimize damage if a backing accident occurs.
(6) Alert Pedestrians: Consider establishing the practice of honking your truck’s horn
2 times before backing. This signal will alert pedestrians, as well as crewmembers to
stay clear of your truck.
(7) Ultimate Responsibility: The driver of the vehicle has the final responsibility for
safe backing. If you the driver are not sure whether the area behind the truck is clear,
stop the vehicle and get out to check.
Backing Safety Suggestions
Symptom Possible Causes and Solution
No reversing function Check that the correct corresponding color coded
trigger wire is connected properly. For example,
the rear Camera is typically connected to the
BROWN 4-pin connector, so the BROWN trigger
wire would need to be used to toggle the Monitor to
that channel, in this case, Channel 3.
