The optionally available radio is locate in the ceiling console.
See the manufacturer's operating instructions for operating the
radio.
Operation with a bridged seat contact switch
The seat contact switch can be bridged to allow using the work
hydraulic system (PTO) when the driver's seat is not occupied.
This allows e.g. the suction hose to be used when nobody is sit-
ting on the driver's seat.
This function is only possible in working mode, see chapter
Bridging the seat contact switch.
