freightliner NEW CASCADIA 2016, Driver Manual

Page: 111 / 207

WARNING
When the STOP engine or CHECK engine lamp
illuminates, most engines are programmed to
shut down automatically within 30 seconds. The
driver must immediately move the vehicle to a
safe location at the side of the road to prevent
causing a hazardous situation that could cause
bodily injury, property damage, or severe damage
to the engine.
In SHUTDOWN mode, the red STOP engine lamp
will illuminate when the problem is serious enough to
reduce power or speed. See
Fig. 10.4 . Engine power
will ramp down, then the engine will shut down if the
problem continues while in derate mode. The driver
has 30 or 60 seconds (depending on the critical fault
type) after the STOP engine lamp illuminates to
move the vehicle safely off the road. If the vehicle
cannot be moved to a safe location within that time,
turn the ignition switch to OFF for at least five sec-
onds, then restart the engine. Repeat this action until
the vehicle is safely off the road.
NOTE: In addition to the warning lamp, the
driver display screen will present a warning
message when the engine is in SHUTDOWN
mode. See
Fig. 10.5 . For vehicles with Detroit
engines only, the time remaining before shut-
down is displayed.
Do not operate the vehicle further until the problem
causing the shutdown has been corrected.
Some vehicles may have a shutdown override
switch, which can be used to momentarily override
the shutdown sequence. This switch resets the shut-
down timer, restoring power to the level before the
derate. The switch must be pressed again after five
seconds to obtain a subsequent override. See
Fig. 10.6 .
NOTICE
When the derate process begins, immediately get
the vehicle serviced in order to prevent severe
damage to the engine.
Detroit engines may begin a warning and derate pro-
cess if water is detected in the fuel, or for high en-
gine coolant temperature. In WARNING and DER-
ATE mode, the CHECK engine, STOP engine, or MIL
lamp will illuminate to indicate an engine problem
that requires service and the engine controls will
begin a derate of engine output. Continuing to run
the engine while it is in derate mode could cause
severe damage to the engine.
