Factory Air Conditioning System
Your vehicle is equipped with the factory in-dash air condition system. Operations and
maintenance will be found in the manufacturers owners’ manual located in your information
packet.
Auxiliary Air Conditioning System
Your unit may be equipped with the passenger auxiliary air conditioning system, which works
with the factory system. The air conditioning system for the passenger system will have an
evaporator mounted in the ceiling at the rear of the bus with the condenser being located outside
the lower skirting area.
To control the individual systems, use the controls located on the engine cover console. The left
switch is the fan speed control switch and the right side is the temperature control switch. Turn
to the desired settings.
To gain maximum cooling, use the in-dash system along with the passenger system.
For proper care and maintenance, review the manufacturers owners’ manual on the air
conditioning.
Heating System
If the bus is equipped with the in-floor additional heating system, the unit will be located under
the passenger seating. Like the air conditioning system, this system works in conjunction with
the factory system.
The controls will be located in the switch panel area.
The in-dash system must be switched to the heat system and ranging from warm to high heat
before the passenger system will work properly.
To gain maximum heating, use the in-dash system along with the passenger system.
Fast Idle
The fast idle is designed to keep the battery charged by “revving” the engine while the bus is
idling.
•
Before you can activate the fast idle, the vehicle needs to be running and the emergency
brake needs to be engaged.
•
Press the fast idle switch on the console to start the fast idle.
•
To disengage the fast idle, press on the brake pedal. You will still need to release the
emergency brake before driving.
