Operation
Anti-jackknifing protection during forward travel
Engine torque reduction
In the event of an NOx fault (display
if permissible NOx concentration ex-
ceeded), engine torque will be reduced
the next time the bus moves off from
stationary. In this situation, a fault is
present in the exhaust gas cleaning
system, i.e. the malfunction indicator
lamp flashes. If the fault was caused by
the AdBlue supply tank running empty,
the AdBlue level operating display (see
above) is also displayed. The AdBlue
supply tank must be filled immediately.
Note:
The icon displayed on the screen and the
yellow warning level A malfunction display
are accompanied by the “Exhaust system
engine output reduced” message.
Danger.
Have NOx faults rectified immediately by
an EvoBus Service Partner.
Anti-jackknifing protection during
forward travel
Danger.
Risk of accident. If the rear car begins
to swing from side to side, the bus must
be stabilised by braking. If a malfunction
occurs in the anti-jackknifing protection
system (red warning lamp in conjunction
with the “Anti-jackknifing protection” sym-
bol), it is permissible to drive the bus as
far as the nearest workshop but only in
exceptional cases, in favourable weath-
er conditions (non-skid road surface) and
at a speed of no more than 12 mph (20
km/h). In all other cases the bus must
be towed.
Note:
If a malfunction occurs in the anti-jack-
knifing system, indicated by a red warn-
ing lamp in conjunction with the “Anti-
jackknifing system malfunction” malfunc-
tion display, the vehicle is automatically
braked down to a speed of 30 mph (50
km/h).
