CANADIAN TRAFFIC RULES AND ROAD SIGNS
TRAFFIC RULES
ALCOHOL AND DRUGS
Permitted blood alcohol levels are mandated by the provinces and territories. Please do not drive under the
influence of alcohol and/or drugs!
TRAFFIC LIGHTS
Traffic lights are suspended across the intersection. Left turn arrows indicate that you can safely turn
left while the oncoming traffic is still stopped at a red light.
After you have come to a complete stop and made sure the intersection is clear of all vehicles, cyclists and
pedestrians, you may turn right despite a red light in the U.S. and Canada except for the island of Montreal in
Québec. Exceptions are often limited to certain times and clearly posted as below.
Example on the left: Turning right is prohibited on red.
Example on the right: Turning right is prohibited from Monday to Friday, 7AM - 9AM and
4PM - 6PM (no matter whether there are traffic lights or not).
SEAT BELT
Canadian and U.S. laws require driver and all passengers to be seated with the seat belt fastened when the
vehicle is in motion.
SPEED LIMITS
The Speed limit in most urban areas is 50 km/h, and on highways either 80 or 100 km/h, unless otherwise
posted.
PEDESTRIANS
Canadian drivers are usually very polite and considerate. Pedestrians have the right of way.
DRIVER'S LICENSES
We require your national license for RV rentals. Foreign licenses are generally accepted in Canada. However,
we recommend carrying an international driver's license in addition, unless your original license is issued in
English or French.
GPS SYSTEMS AND HEIGHT RESTRICTIONS
Your RV's external dimensions and gross vehicle weight (GVW) are shown on a windshield sticker and in the
manual. GPS systems do not provide any information on height restrictions on your planned route. Always
check restriction signs for tunnels, overpasses, gas stations, roof constructions, ferries, etc.! Drive-thrus at fast
food outlets or entry ways to hotels/motels are generally too low for RV’s!
As a general rule: the minimum clearance must be 3.70 m or 12 ft. for all of our vehicles.
HOV LANE (HIGH OCCUPANCY VEHICLE LANE)
HOV lanes are for vehicles with two or more people inside. These lanes may only be used by vehicles
that carry the minimum required number of people. The HOV lane symbol is a diamond,
which is indicated on many HOV signs and above all, on HOV lanes. Example of signs:
Left: HOV lane for buses and vehicles with at least 3 people starts here.
Right: From 5AM to 11PM, this lane is an HOV lane for buses and vehicles with at least 3
people only. During the time from 11PM to 5AM, this lane may also be used by vehicles with fewer people.

Fraserway RV’s allowed on HOV lanes:
•Van Conversion
•Truck Camper
•C-Small
Fraserway RV’s NOT allowed on HOV lanes:
•Adventurer 4, Overlander
•C-Medium, C-Large, C-XLarge
•A-Class
PARKING
Regulations vary from province to province. As a general rule, parking is only permitted in the driving direction
of the traffic lane. Parking is not permitted within 6 meters either side of:
-Pedestrian crossings
-Stop signs
-Traffic control signals
-Curves or corners
-Fire hydrants
-Entrance/Exit of hotels, theatres, public meeting places, schools, fire departments, playgrounds
CAUTION:
A yellow curb side generally marks a no-parking zone. If your vehicle uses more payable parking
spots, you have to pay for the number of spots used!
EMERGENCY VEHICLES
If a police car, fire truck or ambulance with flashing lights and/or sirens is approaches (from ahead or the rear),
pull over to the right and wait until the vehicles have passed.
If you are stopped by a police car, pull over to the right, remain seated, open the window and wait for the
officer to approach. Keep your hands visible on the steering wheel and follow the orders of the officer.
STOP SIGNS
You must always come to a complete stop at the stop line. The driver that arrived at a 4-way stop
first has the right-of-way. When two cars arrive at the same time, yield to the car on your right-hand
side. The same rule applies if traffic lights are not working. Canadians are usually disciplined and
courteous. Only one car at a time can cross the intersection.
TOLL BRIDGES
If you are aware that you have crossed a toll bridge on your journey, please inform us upon return
of the RV to avoid additional administrative charges. Fraserway RV will be billed directly by the
company responsible for collecting the toll fee.
Some crossings will require direct payment on the spot. Please use the truck lane to avoid any height
restriction issues.
ACCIDENTS
Most accidents happen while parking the RV. This damage can be easily avoided if a passenger gets out of the
vehicle to help the driver manoeuvering by giving directions.
Never settle or admit any wrong-doing at the accident scene! If needed call the Police. If possible make notes,
take pictures and exchange information with the other party.
Always call our OnRoad-Service and fill in the accident report, which you will find in the "Emergency" section of
the instruction manual. The police will not attend to minor accidents without personal injury.

SCHOOL BUSES Canadian school buses are yellow. They signal to stop all traffic (no passing!) using
flashing red lights and/or a swing-out stop sign. It is against the law to pass a stopped
school bus. All traffic must come to a halt to ensure children can get on and off the bus
safely. Once the signals have been turned off and/or the stop sign has been pulled, the
traffic can move again in both directions. Failure to obey this traffic rule is a serious
offence. Only if the road is separated by a median, can the oncoming traffic slowly proceed without stopping.

PROGRAMMING
1. Enable cruise control by pressing the ON ①button.
2. Accelerate by pressing SET ACCEL ③until reaching the desired speed. Release the button and the
speed will be maintained. Alternatively, the foot pedal can be used to increase speed, then briefly
press the SET ACCEL ③button to maintain the speed automatically.
3. After each time the brake pedal is depressed, the vehicle will lose speed. Press RES ②and the
vehicle’s speed will automatically resume to its previously set level.
4. Press the COAST ④button to decrease the speed to a lower setting.
5. Press the OFF ⑤button to turn cruise control off.
CABIN
All vehicles are equipped with an automatic transmission, power steering and power brakes. The V8 engine
displacement is 5.4 litres and an output of 255 horsepower, the V10 6.8 litres and of 305 horsepower.
IGNITION SWITCH
The ignition switch has 5 different key positions:
POSITION A (ACCESSORY)
allows the electrical accessories such as the radio to operate while the engine is not running.
POSITION B (LOCK)
turns off the engine and locks the steering wheel in place.
POSITION C (OFF):
The ignition is off.
POSITION D (ON):
All electrical circuits are operational. Warning lamps and indicators are illuminated.
POSITION E (START)
cranks the engine. Please release the key as soon as the engine starts.
BATTERY BOOST SWITCH
The Battery Boost Switch enables jump-starting the engine from the coach batteries
when the engine battery is drained. This switch is located to the left of the steering
wheel ①or at the driver’s seat below the recline handle ②. If the battery is too low
to start the engine, press and hold the Battery Boost/Auxiliary Start switch while
turning the ignition switch and release it when the engine starts.
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
The gear selector is to the right of the steering wheel. The instrument cluster displays its current position. Your
foot must be depressing the brake pedal to shift from P (park) to R (reverse) or D (drive). The gear selector has
the following positions:
P
PARK
to start or turn off the engine. The key can only be pulled in this position.
R
REVERSE
to reverse the vehicle. The rear-view camera is activated automatically.
N
NEUTRAL
Select this position for towing only!
D
DRIVE
Most efficient for all normal driving conditions.
4
4th gear
For improved traction
2
2nd gear
To accelerate on slippery surfaces.
1
1st gear
Allows for maximum engine breaking. Does not shift into 1st gear at high speeds!
CAUTION:
We strongly recommend to use D in all driving situations!
TOW/HAUL
The Tow/Haul function optimizes the shifting performance and reduces the potential for
transmission overheating or failure due to excessive shifting when driving in mountainous
areas. This provides extra power when going uphill and braking assistance from the engine
when going downhill to reduce the risk of overheating the vehicle’s brakes. Select this
function by pressing the button at the end of the shift lever.
CRUISE CONTROL
The RV is equipped with Cruise Control. The minimum speed required for its use is 50 km/h. We do not
recommend using Cruise Control on mountain roads because it would cause irregular shifting and accelerating
resulting in excess transmission wear and increased fuel consumption.

PARKING BRAKE (EMERGENCY BRAKE/HAND BRAKE)
①Parking brake release lever (pull to release).
②To engage the parking brake, press the foot pedal.
③Hood release lever (pull to open hood).
HEATED SIDE MIRRORS
Your RV is equipped with heated side mirrors. The switch ①is located on the driver’s door (above
the mirror control ②). Leave the switch in the OFF position unless you need to defrost the mirrors
to avoid the draining of your engine battery.
VEHICLE CARE AND MAINTENANCE
GASOLINE
The engine requires REGULAR UNLEADED GAS (Octane 87). Please use big-brand
stations for refuelling, such as Esso, Shell, Chevron, Husky, Petro Canada, Irving, etc. The
fuel available at independent stations is often of a lower quality which can cause
problems by clogging fuel pumps, etc., resulting in trip disruption and expensive repairs.
ENGINE OIL
The engine oil level must be checked every 1500 kms. The engine should be cold when its oil level is checked.
ONLY SAE 5W30 OIL can be used for topping up. Please keep receipts for oil that is purchased for
reimbursement upon return of the vehicle. Thank you for your care and attention.
CAUTION:
The renter is liable for ALL damage resulting from use of improper fuel, oil, or other engine fluids.
If you have any questions, doubts or concerns, please call our OnRoad-Service.
OIL CHANGE INDICATOR LIGHT ILLUMINATES
We change the oil of our vehicles every 12,000 kms according to the manufacturer’s recommendation. The oil
change light may illuminate earlier as it is programmed to a different schedule. The odometer reading of the
last oil change is indicated on a sticker on the windshield. If the window sticker indicates that an oil change is
due, please call our OnRoad-Service for direction to an authorized auto repair shop. Please keep receipts for all
oil purchases and present them for reimbursement upon return of the vehicle.
TIRES
TIRE CHECK
Please check the tire pressures regularly. The tires should be cold when the pressure is checked!
Recommended tire pressure (cold): 55 PSI (front) –80 PSI (rear)*
*The recommended tire pressure is also indicated on the tires and/or on a sticker inside the driver-side door
frame. The wheel nuts should be visually checked every time you leave a campground.
CHANGING THE TIRES
Tires should only be changed by authorized personnel of the FORD Road-Side Assistance program or of KalTire
24-Hour Service. Please contact our OnRoad-Service whenever a tire change is required. These numbers are
listed in the "Emergency" appendix. Please only attempt to change a wheel if there is no way to contact us for

assistance. Changing a wheel is at your own risk. The wheel nuts of the changed wheel must be checked after
100 kms or sooner and retightened if necessary. Failure to do so could cause serious accidents.
WARNING:
The renter is liable for damages resulting from improper tire change or non-performed checks.
STORAGE LOCATION FOR TIRE CHANGE TOOLS
The tools needed for the tire change can be found in one of the rear outside compartments of the motorhome.
