The short version

TEMSA GLOBAL reported a problem with the other labels. Here is what owners need to know.

WHAT

217, “BUS EMERGENCY EXITS AND WINDOW RETENTION AND RELEASE.” SOME OF THE EMERGENCY EXIT MECHANISM INSTRUCTION LABELS MAY HAVE BEEN INSTALLED FARTHER THAN 16 CM FROM THE RELEASE MECHANISM.

WHY IT MATTERS

DUE TO THE DISTANCE BETWEEN THE OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS AND THE WINDOW’S RELEASE MECHANISM, IN THE EVENT OF AN EMERGENCY, PASSENGERS MAY NOT RECOGNIZE AND FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS FOR RELEASING THE EMERGENCY EXIT WINDOWS DELAYING THEIR SAFE EXIT FROM THE BUS AND , INCREASING THE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY.

WHAT TO DO

TEMSA WILL NOTIFY OWNERS, AND NEW LABELS WILL BE MAILED TO OWNERS FREE OF CHARGE.
