2 Foreword
Dear reader,
One of the traditional goals in the company philosophy of EvoBus GmbH and the SETRA Buses
marque has been to ensure superlative safety.
This also extends to making information about our vehicles and their safety engineering
available to emergency rescue services.
Despite intensive efforts to make our buses as safe as possible, the possibility of injuries being
sustained “in a serious incident” cannot be entirely ruled out.
For this reason, a short, fast and effective rescue chain will continue to be essential.
Emergency responders must be capable of gaining access to the injured as quickly as possible
without further endangering the injured or themselves.
This requires that all rescue workers have in-depth training. With respect to the special
circumstances presented by buses, e.g. physical design, special means of access and safety
systems, this guide will assist you in your work at the scene and in the training of emergency
responders.
While this guide was compiled based on the current state of knowledge and with the
contribution of emergency rescue personnel, it makes no claims to completeness and in no way
acts as a substitute for in-depth training and established specialist literature on the subject of
“Technical Rescue”.
This guide is intended as a source of reference for emergency responders at incident scenes
and in training. As every accident is an exceptional situation, particularly those involving buses,
the information taken from this guide must be adapted accordingly to the individual scenario.

3 Tips for emergency rescue services
Rescuing accident victims from automobiles has become common practice for emergency
rescue services. It is a process that is straightforward to practise with the use of retired cars.
In the case of buses, however, the situation is different. On account of their long service life and
the high residual value that they continue to hold thereafter, it is almost impossible for rescue
teams to practise the extrication of injured persons from modern-day vehicle models.
The casualty-centred extrication of persons from buses is, by comparison with motor car
accidents, far more complex and not only because of the potentially high number of injured
passengers. As these vehicles have a more robust construction and significantly greater
dimensions and weights, the rescuing of trapped occupants is rendered more difficult and more
complicated.
3.1 Medical aspects
Whereas until a few years ago the paramount concern was freeing accident victims as quickly
as possible, the primary objectives today are the provision of initial medical care and a casualty-
centred vehicle extrication.
Exception
• Immediate danger due to fire or crash
• Snatch rescue required for medical reasons
In every case, a (frantic) dragging of the person out of the vehicle should be avoided whatever
the circumstances. The accident victim should initially be left in the vehicle for the time being to
the extent that no immediate danger to the person and rescuer exists.
The top priorities are the medical and psychological care of the casualties as well as
a gentle and casualty-centred rescue from the vehicle.
The medical actions performed in the vehicle should not go beyond that which is absolutely
necessary. For this purpose, the paramedic/rescue service has to be given access to the
casualty so that life-saving measures can be carried out.
The most important immediate measures must be performed without delay and in accordance
with the relevant medical standard.
Tips for emergency rescue services
Tips for emergency rescue services/7
The most important immediate measures are:
• Ensure vital functions (breathing/circulation)
• Keep airways clear and remedy breathing difficulties (with intubation if necessary)
• Prevent shock or assess shock states and take stabilisation measures
• Treat life-threatening injuries
• Stop heavy bleeding
• Immobilise certain parts of the body
• Psychological support of the casualty
As extremely high rates of acceleration act on the body in the event of a traffic accident, there
is a high risk of spinal cord injury. Where necessary, accident casualties should be immobilised
before rescue is attempted, i.e. with appropriate splinting techniques (e.g. “Stifneck”, KED
system, etc.).
During rescue operations, casualties must receive constant medical care. Gentle conduct is
absolutely crucial.
3.2 Technical aspects
• Identification of the vehicle model
• Visual inspection of fitted restraint and safety systems
• Particular bodywork characteristics affecting the use of hydraulic rescue equipment
3.3 On-scene tactical aspects
During rescue operations, numerous risks of injury for patients and rescuers exist, e.g. as a
consequence of
– running engines
– explosion of compressed-gas reservoirs and lines
– electronic devices and defective electrical lines
– hot water equipment
– coolant leakage
– air-conditioning equipment
– acid leakage
– sharp edges, metal parts, shards, etc.
Make absolutely sure that rescuers understand the importance of their own safety.

Tips for emergency rescue services/8
3.3.1 Response procedure
The goal of casualty-centred extrication is to ensure that the provision of care for patients is as
seamless as possible from the time of the accident to the definitive care given in hospital.
The extrication of accident victims from buses can, as with cars, be subdivided into different
phases:
1. Initial access
2. Space creation
3. Full access
By having medical and technical actions performed in parallel, it is possible to optimise time
efficiency in the casualty-centred rescue.
To achieve this, constant communication between the fire crew and rescue team is absolutely
essential.
Surveying and safeguarding the scene and the outside of accident vehicles always comes first
in a rescue operation.
Survey
• Number of vehicles involved
• Number of injured and trapped persons
• Particular technical characteristics of the vehicle
• Possibilities for access and casualty removal
• Special hazards
Outer safety
• Protect the accident scene from moving traffic
• Ensure fire safety by providing appropriate extinguishing media
• Make safe luggage, skiboxes, trailers, etc.
• Illumination of the accident scene
Give your command post immediate feedback.
Request additional support promptly; do not forget about the personnel necessary for medi-
cal care, e.g. emergency physician in charge, incident commander, rapid response teams,
etc.).
For tactical reasons (vehicle height), it is advisable to request vehicle-mounted aerial appli-
ances, e.g. turntable ladder with cage and stretcher bracket.
Refer to Section 3.3.3 Mass casualty incident (MCI).
Tips for emergency rescue services
Tips for emergency rescue services/9
3.3.2 Fire safety
It only takes a few minutes for an incipient fire to grow into a fully developed fire. It is vital,
therefore, to provide fire safety equipment offering three- or fourfold protection for classes A, B,
C and D.
A fire hazard exists during rescue operations primarily due to
– escaping operating fluids
– short circuit
– defective heaters
3.3.3 Mass casualty incident (MCI)
As bus accidents can result in a high number of injured persons, it is usually the case that a
“Mass Casualty Incident” response unit will also be required in addition to the “Technical
Rescue” response unit.
This calls for additional rules in respect of the emergency materials chain, spatial organisation
and incident management system.
Particular attention must be paid to the following points, especially in the case of obscure and
confined incident scenes:
• Wide cordon to be established around accident scene, road closure
• Alternative approach and exit routes for reinforcements
• Requesting of additional personnel
• Assembly staging areas for fire service, rescue service, disaster relief, police, etc.
• Deployment staging areas for fire service, rescue service, disaster relief, etc.
• Casualty collection point and treatment area
• Set up and secure a helicopter landing area

4 Technical information
Even in the bus industry, development never stops. In addition to vehicles with a conventional
petrol or diesel engine, buses with alternative drives are increasingly common on the road.
Gaseous fuel and fuel cell drives are no longer a rarity.
By comparison with the physical design of a passenger car, there are also special
considerations relating to the construction and materials used. Substantially larger dimensions
and heavier weights are to be expected, for example. Another special case is the articulated
bus, with which rescuers should familiarise themselves early on.
4.1 Diesel drive
The diesel-fuelled drive is the oldest and also the most prevalent. This is probably where the
fewest questions arise in fire safety management. However, there are some factors to consider
that are not quite so relevant when dealing with a wrecked car.
Interurban bus – combined heating-oil and
diesel tank
Tourist coach - diesel tank
4.1.1 Tank - material/capacity
Material - Plastic
- Sheet steel
- Aluminium
Capacity 200 l (city bus) up to 800 l (tourist coach)
Diesel and heating oil are assigned to fire class B under European Standard EN2,
which defines categories according to the type of material burning.
Technical information
Technical information/11
4.2 Vehicle construction
Knowledge of the physical design of any vehicle involved in an accident facilitates rescue
operations enormously. It predetermines how effectively the technical options and available
tools are put to use. This in turn forms the basis for a swift, gentle and successful extrication of
trapped persons.
4.2.1 Skeleton
The frame structure can place demanding requirements on the power rating of the
hydraulic rescue equipment!
The skeleton is of tubular construction.
• Semi-integral structure with ribs all
round, connected to continuous angle
sections at the roof edges and seams.
• Pillars, bows and beams made of large-
volume square steel tubes.
• The sidewalls of city buses have a
reinforced longitudinal member to
provide side impact protection and
support for the seating.
Skeleton (here: low-floor bus)
Technical information
Technical information/12
4.2.2 Materials
Skeleton material
• Square steel tubes
Floor frame material
Longitudinal and cross members Large-volume square tubes, or folded and pressed parts
Junctions at the cross members
(to the front and rear of the rear
axle)
Cast steel nodes
Wheel arch area Galvanised sheet steel or aluminium
- 3 mm at front axle
- 2 mm at rear axle
Panelling material
• Continuously hot-dip galvanised sheet steel or aluminium, thickness approximately 1.0 mm
• GFRP mouldings
• Sheet aluminium
The panelling is bonded, spot-welded or riveted to the skeleton.
The sidewalls and the roof are completely lined with insulating material.
Technical information
Technical information/13
4.2.3 Articulation
The front and rear cars are connected by an articulation
system.
It consists of carrier units, a self-supporting turntable and a
hydraulic unit.
The articulation is particularly robust due to the design of
the cast parts (spheroidal graphite cast iron, SG iron).
The articulation area contains a bellows and the energy
chain.
To accommodate the bending movements of the bus, the front and rear sections of the
articulation are connected by a roller bearing. The pitch axis is situated at the connection
between the front car and the articulation.
Risk of injury.
There is a considerable risk of injury when
articulated buses are being lifted.
Unforeseen movements could occur,
particularly with the articulation in flexed
condition.
Proceed with utmost care. Make sure that
rescuers understand the importance of their
own safety.
4.2.4 Dimensions/weight
SETRA buses are constructed in lengths of between 10 m and 18 m (articulated bus).
Depending on the length and axle specification, a permissible gross vehicle weight of 18,000 kg
to 28,000 kg is achieved.
Technical information
Technical information/14
4.3 Materials used
In accordance with legal requirements (EU and ECE) and based on the current state of
knowledge, fire-retardant materials are used in the interior of the vehicle.
The provisions of EU Directives 95/28 and 2001/85 EC for the complete vehicle are deemed to
have been fulfilled.
This particularly applies in the case of
• the interior equipment
• the sidewall and roof insulation
• the insulation of the engine compartment
• the insulation of peripheral equipment, etc.
4.3.1 Magnesium/aluminium
In automotive engineering, there is an increasing use of light metals such as magnesium or
aluminium. These metals are employed in the vehicle as part of engine blocks, cylinder head
covers, intake manifolds, transmission and clutch housings, instrument brackets, seat backrest
frames and door and flap structures in conjunction with other materials and structural parts of
vehicle bodies.
Magnesium and aluminium are assigned to fire class D under European Standard
EN2, which defines categories according to the type of material burning.
Risk of injury.
Magnesium and aluminium components burn
with a bright flame.
Avoid looking directly into the flames.
Magnesium and aluminium reach
temperatures of 2,000 - 3,000 °C in a fire.
Use suitable extinguishing media for metal
fires.
During combustion at very high
temperatures, some water molecules will
split to form hydrogen and oxygen. The
mixture of these two gases is the explosive
oxyhydrogen gas.
Use suitable extinguishing media to fight
fires of fire class D.
Keep another hose ready for possible
surrounding fires.
For vehicle occupants, there is no increased danger from the use of magnesium and
aluminium.
Technical rescue
Technical rescue/15
5 Technical rescue
Every technical rescue operation, especially the extrication of trapped/injured persons,
requires knowledge of the physical design of the accident vehicle.
This section provides information on the equipment of the various buses in the SETRA range.
However, as numerous items of optional equipment exist for all models, the actual design could
differ significantly from bus to bus.
If possible, ask the driver about the exact equipment and operation of the vehicle.
5.1 Fire detection/extinguishing system
For SETRA buses, a fire detection/extinguishing system in the engine compartment is available
as an option.
The temperature in the engine compartment is monitored by detection lines. As soon as the
defined value (160 °C) is exceeded, an alarm is displayed on the driver's display screen
together with the text: “Brandmeldung Motorraum” (Fire alarm engine compartment).
At the same time, the extinguishing process will be triggered. The extinguishing fluid is
atomised to a fine mist and sprayed from the extinguisher nozzles in the engine compartment.
Risk of injury.
Under unfavourable circumstances, the fire
extinguishing system may not be able to
extinguish the fire completely and
permanently.
Maintain fire safety even if the fire appears to
have been extinguished.
The fire detection lines in the engine
compartment hold a pressure of
approximately 15 bar. The extinguishing lines
hold a pressure of 200 bar.
Wear appropriate protective equipment.
1 - Detection line
2 - Nozzle 1
3 - Nozzle 2
4 - Nozzle 3
5 - Nozzle 4
Technical rescue
Technical rescue/16
5.2 Battery
Almost all buses are equipped with two or more batteries. The batteries could be located to the
front, above or to the rear of the axles.
For the exact location of the batteries in the individual model designations, refer to
Section 7 - Annex.
The battery location is not marked on the outside of the vehicle.
The batteries are mounted on pull-out carriages.
1. Open the retaining screws/split pins of the battery support frame.
2. Pull the carriage out by the handles.
3. Where batteries are mounted one above the other, loosen the retaining screws/split pins
of the upper frame.
4. Swivel the upper battery to the right.

Technical rescue
Technical rescue/17
5.2.1 Disconnecting the battery
Do not disconnect the batteries until all electrical consumers, e.g. power window in
driver's door, door openers, roof hatches, driver's seat adjustment features, interior
lighting, etc., have been used to your own advantage. This can make further stages
of the operation and the extrication of casualties considerably easier.
Once the batteries are disconnected, the interior lighting will no longer be func-
tional.
Avoid causing panic among passengers, e.g. provide vehicle illumination.
Risk of injury.
During work on the batteries, there could be
a risk of injury and explosion.
Observe the safety information on the
battery, in the user guide and in the vehicle
operating instructions.
An oxyhydrogen gas mixture could have
developed in closed battery compartments.
There could be a risk of explosion at the time
of battery disconnection.
Always pull the battery carriage all the way
out. Wear appropriate protective equipment.
In some vehicles, disconnecting the battery
could cause the driver's seat to drop.
Every uncontrolled movement could lead to a
further risk of injury or a deterioration of the
injured person's condition.
Carry out this measure only in consultation
with the emergency physician.
Instead of disconnecting the battery, it is advisable to
use the battery isolating switch.
Technical rescue
Technical rescue/18
Disconnecting the battery
1. Switch off the ignition.
2. Disconnect the negative terminal.
3. Disconnect the positive terminal.
4. Hold the positive and negative cables together to discharge voltages stored by
capacitors.
5. Prove dead, e.g. by switching on the hazard warning lamps.
6. Secure the cables against re-energisation or contact, e.g. using cable ties.
Continue to maintain fire safety even after the batteries have been disconnected.
Technical rescue
Technical rescue/19
5.3 Switching off the engine
Diesel engines could continue to run after an accident. After the vehicle has been made safe,
the engine must be switched off.
There are various ways to switch off the engine.
5.3.1 Removing the key
The ignition lock is located on the right-hand side of the steering column. Before you can
remove the key, the following prerequisites must be fulfilled:
• Accelerator pedal not depressed
• Parking brake applied
• Transmission pushbutton switch “N” pressed
5.3.2 Start/Stop pushbutton in the driver's station
Some buses are equipped with a Start/Stop
pushbutton.
This is found either
- on the console on the left-hand side of the
driver's station
- on the instrument panel.
left pushbutton: disconnect on-board power supply
right pushbutton: Start/Stop pushbutton
5.3.3 Start/Stop pushbutton in the engine compartment
In addition to the ignition lock and the driver's
Start/Stop pushbutton, there could be an
additional Start (1)-Stop (2) pushbutton in the
engine compartment.
To stop the engine using this pushbutton, the
following conditions must be fulfilled:
• Ignition lock in drive position
• Stop pushbutton (2) pressed
Technical rescue
Technical rescue/20
5.3.4 Battery isolating switch
Operating the battery isolating switch interrupts the power supply to the injection system. The
engine cuts out after 2-3 injection cycles.
Bear in mind that disconnection of the batteries will cause all electrical consumers,
e.g. power windows, door openers, roof hatches, seat adjustment features, interior
lighting, etc., to stop functioning.
5.3.5 Master safety switch
In some models, a master safety switch is fitted. This
is located on the console to the left of the driver and
is marked in red.
Operating the master safety switch switches off the
engine. The tachograph, instrument cluster, central
locking, interior lighting and roof hatches remain
operational.
1. Unlock the switch by turning the red knob anti-
clockwise
2. Operate the switch by pressing the red knob.
Technical rescue
Technical rescue/21
5.3.6 Covering the air intake
Another way is to cover the air intake with plastic film. As a consequence of the reduced oxygen
supply, a vacuum forms and the engine cuts out.
Engine air intake (1) is located in the rear end, on the right- or left-hand side of the vehicle.
City bus City bus

5.3.7 Introducing CO2
The engine can be made to stop by introducing carbon dioxide (CO2) into the air cleaner.
Technical rescue
Technical rescue/22
5.3.8 Open the engine compartment flap
Open the engine compartment flap using the two
handle recesses.
To stop the engine, you could interrupt the fuel
supply at the fuel filter in the engine compartment.
- Close handwheel (1) on the fuel filter or
- unscrew the fuel filter.
Technical rescue
Technical rescue/23
5.4 Immobilisation and stabilisation
Risk of injury.
Rescue operations could induce inadvertent
movements in and of the vehicle. This could
lead to further injuries to accident casualties
and rescuers.
Secure the vehicle against uncontrolled
movements before rescue work begins.
A casualty-centred extrication of accident victims cannot take place until the vehicle has been
adequately stabilised.
If the bus has not already been secured against rollaway by the driver, this must be done using
the parking brake (handbrake valve).
Trapped persons are held in direct contact with the vehicle. For this
reason, safety measures must be implemented to eliminate the possibility of uncontrolled
vehicle movements or parts thereof.
The safe immobilisation of the vehicle must be maintained throughout the entire rescue
operation and must not impede the use of fire service rescue equipment.
The stabilisation of upright buses or buses lying on their side is relatively unproblematic. In this
situation, the vehicle can be secured against tilting and sliding by use of chocks, support struts,
ropes and webbing.
An unstable bus or a bus lying on its roof requires extensive supporting materials and possibly
the use of a mobile crane.
5.4.1 Underpinning
The vehicle can be stabilised with cribbing blocks or beams.
5.4.2 Chocks
Chocks can be used to secure the bus against rolling away.
5.4.3 Support struts
Buses lying on their side can be secured against tilting and sliding by means of support struts or
special support systems.
Technical rescue
Technical rescue/24
5.4.4 Endless sling
If the vehicle is resting on sloping or uneven ground, e.g. a road embankment, securement can
be achieved with the endless sling and, depending on the lie, a mobile crane.
Due to the heavy weight of a bus, it is essential to take the permissible load-bearing
capacity of the webbing into consideration.
Suitable slinging points are:
- Front coupling jaw
Located behind the flap in the bumper
centre section.
- Rear coupling jaw
Located behind a flap in the
bumper centre section underneath
the number plate.
Screw the towing coupling into
locating bore (1).
Insert the rigid tow bar into towing
coupling (3) and secure with linchpin
(1). Turn linchpin (1) towards the
rear until it engages in lock (2).
Always make sure that the linchpin
is securely seated (engaged).
Technical rescue
Technical rescue/25
5.4.5 Raising the vehicle
Risk of injury.
If executed incorrectly, raising the vehicle
poses a high risk of injury for patients and
rescuers.
Raising of the complete vehicle must always
be carried out at all axles.
Between the axles underneath the sidewall
(U section), the vehicle is not stable enough
to be lifted or supported there
Raising of the vehicle could result in
unforeseeable movements and even failure
of the lifting equipment.
Underpin raised vehicles progressively using
suitable materials until raising is complete.
Do not work on vehicles until
underpinned/secured.
The jacking points on the skeleton are marked on
the outside of the bus by symbols. These points are
also suitable as lifting points for the lifting
equipment used by the fire service.
Important note for twin axles:
The driven axle and trailing axle are interconnected by the suspension. It is prohib-
ited to raise an individual axle to such a height that the wheels on the second axle
would be lifted from the ground.
Technical rescue
Technical rescue/26
If the vehicle is lying on its roof or side, the reinforced vertical struts next to the doors and on
the opposite side of the vehicle can act as slinging points for webbing or endless slings.
These points can also be used as lifting points for hydraulic or pneumatic lifting appliances, e.g.
to free persons under the overturned vehicle.
Risk of injury.
There is a considerable risk of injury when a
bus is being lifted with a mobile crane.
Always use the designated lifting points as
your slinging points for raising the bus.
Keep plenty of cribbing material ready.
Do not pull the sling through two opposite
windows and lift the bus by the roof. The
roofs are not designed to support the weight
of a bus.
If a bus is raised incorrectly, it could topple
over onto the other side.
Ensure adequate
stabilising/counterbalancing force to prevent
the bus from toppling.
If the bus is turned by the roof or if the sling
is run over the roof, the roof will suffer
serious deformation and reduce the space
above the seats.
Carry out this course of action only with the
utmost consideration for the persons inside
the vehicle.
Technical rescue
Technical rescue/27
5.4.6 Raising/lowering system/kneeling
Some SETRA buses are equipped with an air-sprung raising/lowering system.
The rotary knob for the raising/lowering system is
located on the floor of the bus to the left of the
driver's seat.
Turn the switch clockwise out of centre position to raise the vehicle.
Turn the switch anti-clockwise to lower the vehicle.
The vehicle is raised or lowered 70 mm respectively.
It might be possible to free a person trapped under the vehicle using this function.
The raising function works only with the engine running and the electrical system
functioning correctly.
If the vehicle is equipped with a “kneeling system”, you can
bring it to normal level by pressing the upper section of the
pushbutton (kneeling).
Technical rescue
Technical rescue/28
5.5 Access to the vehicle
There are various ways to create access to the vehicle.
You should first check whether access is possible through the doors. Where possible, this
should be done without substantial use of rescue equipment.
Other access solutions include removing the vehicle windows or entering through the roof
hatches or articulation bellows (initial access).
The last way would be to enlarge the existing opening for full access using rescue equipment.
However, this should be used only as the absolute last resort because there would be an
inestimable risk posed by concealed wiring, etc.
As the usable space inside a bus is so optimally versatile, there is a diverse range of
equipment and usage variants, e.g. library bus, conference bus, blood donor bus,
etc.
Nevertheless, the fundamental construction of the skeleton does not differ substan-
tially from that of the passenger transport bus.

Technical rescue/29
5.5.1 Vehicle doors
The doors fitted to Setra buses can be classified into three systems:
Inwards
opening doors
Outwards
opening doors
Hinged and
sliding doors
On export vehicles, an emergency door may also be fitted:
Technical rescue
Technical rescue/30
5.5.2 Opening vehicle doors from the outside
First try to open the doors normally using the pneumatic or electric controls. If this does not
work, use the emergency valve next to the respective door in accordance with the instructions.
Only then should you attempt to open or remove the doors using mechanical aids.
Doors can often be opened without the use of technical aids.
Pushbutton
In the case of city and interurban buses,
you might be able to open the doors using
the “Open door” pushbutton on the outside
of the respective door.
Exterior door pushbutton – city bus
Door opening pushbutton
On tourist coaches, this pushbutton is fitted either
- on the door leaf (door 1) or
- in the front end, under the right wiper
arm.
Technical rescue
Technical rescue/31
Exterior emergency valve
On buses from model year 2005 onwards, an
emergency valve is fitted on the outside at
each door.
Exterior emergency valve -
example of city bus
The emergency valves on the outside of the vehicle continue to function even after
disconnection of the vehicle electrics, provided they have been unlocked from the
inside.
Technical rescue

Technical rescue/34
Square key or handwheel
EU Directive 2001/85 EC stipulates that it must always be possible to open a door
from the inside (means of escape) even when it has been locked mechanically from
the outside.
The doors can always be opened from the inside using yellow-coloured handwheel
(3).
To open the doors, turn lock (1) in the direction of the
arrow using a square key (2) or handwheel (3).
Handwheel - example of city bus
In some cases, it could be necessary to remove the doors completely in order to
rescue occupants. Also remove the handrails in the entrance if necessary.
Where possible, use hydraulic rescue equipment for this purpose rather than angle
grinders or flame cutting tools. There would otherwise be a risk of fire due to the
materials fitted in the interior.
5.5.4 Driver's door
Some vehicles are equipped with a driver's door. This
enables direct access to the driver's station.
The door is fitted with a lockable pull handle.
Technical rescue
Technical rescue/35
5.5.5 Opening the emergency exits (roof hatches)
The roof hatches are ejectable and designed as an emergency exit.
They are opened manually from the inside and outside.
The effective internal width is 505 x 807 mm (legal minimum 500 x 700 mm).
Opening from the outside
1. Pull the red handle.
The roof hatch is opened.
On older buses, the roof hatch cannot be unlocked from the outside unless the igni-
tion is switched on.
Opening from the inside
1. Pull the safety catch down.
The roof hatch is unlocked and can be
opened.
1. Remove cover (1) by pulling on handle (2)
(Velcro fastener).
Technical rescue

5.5.6 Removing vehicle glass
As a general rule, the windscreen is made of laminated safety glass (LSG), the door windows,
side windows and rear window are made of toughened safety glass (TSG). The panes are
bonded onto the frame.
Laminated safety glass
Risk of injury.
The windscreen made of laminated safety
glass could weigh up to 120 kg!
This means an increased risk of injury during
glass removal.
During windscreen removal, prevent it from
falling down, e.g. by breaking it into
“manageable” pieces.
Toughened safety glass
1. Cover panes of toughened safety glass with self-adhesive film.
2. Smash the glass using the spring-loaded centre punch.
3. Remove the glass from the frame.
Risk of injury.
The waistline height could be up to 2 m
above the ground, especially on tourist
coaches.
Provide sufficient scaffolding to rescue
accident victims.
Technical rescue
Technical rescue/38
5.5.7 Cutting open the articulation bellows
With articulated buses, it is possible to
create access to the vehicle by cutting
through the articulation bellows.
Technical rescue
Technical rescue/39
5.6 Driver's station
Driver's stations in buses are complex, separate areas requiring exact knowledge and the use of
special rescue techniques.
Fig. 1: Driver's station - city bus Fig. 2: Driver's station – tourist coach
Risk of injury.
Adjustment of the seat or steering column or
removal of the steering wheel could induce
decompression sickness in the person
trapped.
Extrication should be carried out only in
consultation with the emergency physician.
Make sure that neither the person trapped
nor any rescuers are put in further danger by
adjustment of the seat or steering column.
No airbags or belt tensioners are fitted in SETRA buses.
5.6.1 Cab door
The driver's cab door is usually hinged at the front. It is
equipped with a pull handle as a door opener on the inside.
Material:
- Steel frame
- GFRP
- Trim parts in foam-backed plastic film
Technical rescue
Technical rescue/40
5.6.2 Driver's seat adjustment features
For SETRA buses, a wide range of driver's seats is available. Operation of seat adjustment
features could vary by seat manufacturer.
Air-sprung suspension seats are fitted as
standard.
Some models are equipped with the following
features, which need to be taken into
consideration or even used during the rescue
of a trapped driver:
- fore-and-aft adjustment
- integrated pneumatic system with lumbar
support
- pneumatic side contour adjustment
- backrest adjustment
- seat squab depth adjustment
- tilt adjustment
- horizontal adjustment
- swivellable
The handle for seat fore-and-aft adjustment works without power and is fitted in the
same place regardless of seat manufacturer.
- Pull the handle upwards and slide-adjust the seat.
The other adjustment features of the seat normally work only if the power supply is
functioning correctly.
Cut open the bellows on the driver's seat and wedge the seat to protect the patient
from inadvertent movements.
To reduce the seat elevation, it is possible to sever the pneumatic line.
Technical rescue
Technical rescue/41
5.6.3 Steering column
The steering column offers
- height adjustment and
- tilt adjustment.
The steering column adjuster can be unlocked
pneumatically by means of a switch (1) on the
steering column (tourist coach),
or a switch on the instrument panel to the left of the driver (city bus).
Release the steering column using switch (1). The red LED in the switch lights up.
Risk of accident and injury from being distracted from the road and traffic. The adjustment of
mirrors, the driver's seat and steering wheel unavoidably diverts some of the driver's attention.
Before the mirrors, driver's seat and steering wheel are adjusted, ensure familiarity with
their operation, handling and use.
Adjust the mirrors, driver's seat and steering wheel before the start of a journey.
Check the position of the mirrors before the start of a journey and correct if necessary.
After the adjustable steering column has been adjusted, check that all instruments and
indicator lamps are still visible and correct the position of the steering column if necessary.
Re-engage the steering column after it has been adjusted.
To be able to release the steering column catch, the ignition needs to be ON.
If the driver is trapped behind the steering wheel, it is often sufficient to remove the
bottom third of the steering wheel.
The procedure for cutting through the steering wheel is the same as for a passenger
car.
Technical rescue
Technical rescue/42
5.7 Passenger compartment
After an accident, many kinds of problems are likely to be faced in the passenger compartment.
For example, there are various types of passenger seat mountings and designs, numerous
adjustment features and, in some cases, restraint systems.
As the bus is fitted with handrails, partition walls and luggage racks, some objects could
present obstacles to rescue work.
5.7.1 Occupant restraint systems
City bus Interurban bus Tourist coach
No restraint systems for

Adjusting the backrest (window-side)
Pull back the lever between the seat squab and
vehicle wall. At the same time, push back on
the backrest.
Release lever (1) in the desired position.
5.7.3 Removing passenger seats/passenger seat mountings
As buses generally have a relatively narrow centre aisle, which restricts rescue operations
enormously, it may be necessary to remove passenger seats.
In SETRA buses, three different seat mounting systems are fitted. These can be roughly
differentiated by type of service:
City bus
Interurban bus
Tourist coach
However, crossovers could also exist, e.g. the mounting system from the interurban bus fitted
in a city bus.

the luggage racks before you begin rescue
work.
Technical rescue
Technical rescue/46
5.8 Separate rooms
In tourist coaches in particular, there are separate rooms in which further casualties could be
trapped or that endanger rescue efforts.
5.8.1 Lavatory
In most vehicles, the lavatory cabin is located to the
front of the entrance of door 2.
Less often, the lavatory cabin is positioned in
the rear end of the vehicle.
Risk of injury.
Some toilet systems work with chemical
agents.
Keep binding agents ready to absorb spilled
chemicals.
Observe the customary safety measures for
the handling of chemicals.
Technical rescue
Technical rescue/47
5.8.2 On-board kitchenette
The on-board kitchenette is, like the lavatory,
situated near the entrance of door 2 or in the rear end.

coffee machine, sausage heater, boiler
Risk of injury.
The on-board kitchenette contains electrical
heating and cooling appliances.
Beware of short circuits or overheating of
appliances.
Beware of boiling water.
5.8.3 Luggage compartment
The side luggage compartment flaps could be secured
by various systems
- Square-drive locks
- Lock cylinders
- Central locking
The control for the central locking is located on the
instrument panel in the driver's station. It can be
operated only with the ignition switched on.
With the remote control, it can be operated without
the ignition switched on.
Technical rescue
Technical rescue/48
If none of the above unlocking methods is working, open the luggage compartment
flaps using a hydraulic spreader.
Check the luggage compartments for possible origin of fire. In case of fire in the luggage
compartment, remove all items of luggage to prevent the fire from spreading to the passenger
compartment.
Remove the luggage and move it to a secure collection point (role of the police).
Risk of injury.
Jammed luggage compartment flaps could
pop open during rescue operations.
Keep well clear.
5.8.4 Driver's rest area
The driver's rest area could be located to
the rear of the entrance at door 1 or
door 2.
Access:
- from the outside via flaps right and
left
- from the inside via roller shutter in the
entrance of the doors
The driver's rest area is marked with a pictogram
on the outside and at the access point inside the
vehicle.
Always check all separate rooms and open all flaps. In individual custom models,
the locations of separate rooms could differ from those of the standard specifica-
tion.
Technical rescue
Technical rescue/49
5.8.5 Skiboxes
Skiboxes may be fitted to the rear end of
tourist coaches. These boxes could, in
some cases, obscure the rear window and
hinder access to the vehicle.
Risk of injury.
The heavy weight of a laden box (up to
650 kg) could hamper rescue operations.
Unload the skibox before you raise the bus
and make the contents safe.
