Operation
Two-Position Regeneration Inhibit Switch
With the optional two-position switch, pressing the ON position
of the ON / INHIBT REGEN switch will inhibit both normal and
parked regeneration. Regeneration will be inhibited (latched)
when in this position and the switch indicator is turned ON.
Three-Position Regeneration Inhibit Switch
The optional three-position switch is a center stable momentary
switch. Pressing the ON position inhibits normal regeneration
while the engine is running and is reset when the ignition switch
is turned OFF. The Inhibit function is cancelled when the lower
position is pressed, or parked regeneration is initiated (PARKD
REGEN switch is turned to the ON position).
The switch indicator will be turned ON whenever regeneration
inhibit is enabled.
Restarting After Running Out of Fuel
It may be necessary to bleed the fuel system. Refer to
Bleeding Air From Fuel System in the Engine Operation And
Maintenance Manual supplied with your vehicle.
Cold Weather Operation
INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
To prevent personal injury and / or death, or
damage to property, do not use the washers
in freezing weather without first warming the
windshield with the defrosters; otherwise, the
washer solution may freeze on the windshield
and obscure your vision, which could cause an
accident.
Do not use radiator coolant or antifreeze in the
windshield washer reservoir.
Radiator coolant
in the washer reservoir can severely reduce
visibility when sprayed on the windshield.
Follow these instructions when operating the engine in
temperatures of 32°F (0°C) or lower:
• Ensure that the batteries are of sufficient size and are fully
charged. Check other electrical components to ensure
they are in optimum condition.
• Use a permanent-type engine coolant solution to protect
the engine against damage from freezing.
• If your vehicle is equipped with a water-fuel separator,
drain it daily. Fill the fuel tank at the end of daily operation
to prevent condensation in the fuel system.
• Ensure you use proper cold weather engine oil and that it
is at its proper level.
