OPERATION/DRIVING

Now that you are familiar with the 

features that are available with Banks 

Brake, it is recommended that you 

experiment with the various settings 

prior to using the braking features in 

a towing or extreme driving situation. 

Under light load conditions on local 

streets, the MEDIUM (MED) setting is 

an appropriate starting point to provide 

a reasonable demonstration that the 

brake is functioning. 
NoTE: Whenever the brake is active 

and the footbrake is applied, the 

vehicle will not upshift until the throttle 

is pressed. This is also true even if 

cruise control is resumed. 
For some model vehicles, whenever the 

brake is active the vehicles Tow-haul 

mode will activate. The tow-haul mode 

will deactivate when the Banks Brake is 

deactivated. 

WHEEL SLIP DETECTION

The Banks Brake continuously 

monitors wheel speeds to detect 

possible slippage caused by braking. 

If this occurs, the brake will shut off 

until traction is regained and then 

remain off for 30 seconds. This will be 

communicated as a fault via the Banks 

iQ Status Indicator.
