CABIN
All vehicles are equipped with an automatic transmission, power steering and power brakes. The V8 engine
displacement is 6.7 litres and an output of up to 330 hp.
IGNITION SWITCH
The ignition switch has 5 different key positions:
POSITION A (ACCESSORY)
enables use of the vehicle's electrical system (radio etc.) without
the engine running or the ignition being turned on.
POSITION B (LOCK)
turns off the engine and locks the steering wheel in place. Please note that removing the
key is only possible when the switch is in this position.
POSITION C (OFF)
turns off the engine and the entire electrical system without locking the steering wheel.
The
key cannot be removed in this position!
POSITION D (ON)
: all circuits are active and the warning lights are on. This is the position the
key is in while the engine is running.
POSITION E (START)
cranks the engine. Please release the key as soon as the engine starts.
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
The gear selector is on the right-hand side of the steering column. The shift lever must be pulled towards the
steering wheel to move from one gear selection to another. Your right 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 removed while 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 position for all normal driving conditions.
M
MANUAL
to choose the gears manually. We DO NOT recommend use of this option!
DIESEL ENGINE BRAKE
The diesel engine brake can be used together with the Tow/Haul function. When activated,
braking assistance from the engine is boosted providing enhanced handling and control, and
reduced brake and transmission wear while going downhill. Press the button on the dashboard
(to the right of the steering wheel, below 4WD) to switch the function ON or OFF.
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
recommend not using the cruise control on mountain roads because it would cause irregular shifting and
accelerating resulting in excess transmission wear and increased fuel consumption.
