Used to toggle between the odometer and trip meter. Holding the button
down for two seconds will reset the trip meter.
10. Trans Temp:
Shows Temperature of transmission fluid. Normal transmission operating
temperature is 160-250° F. The maximum transmission to cooler oil
temperature is 300°F. Do not let the transmission temperature exceed
275°F. If excessive temperature is indicated stop motorhome and shift to
neutral. Accelerate engine to 1200-1500 RPM and allow temperature to
return to normal.
The parking brake system is activated when the push-pull control knob
(located on the driver’s left console panel) is pulled. When the knob is
pushed, the brake is released. Prior to driving, allow time for the air
compressor to build up sufficient air to shut off the air warning lamp.
WARNING: If the air tank is not dumped, there is the
possibility of an accidental release of the parking brake.
Traveling with small children and/or pets may require a
small block to be fabricated to prevent accidental release.
The block should be placed under the knob and rested on
the dash panel. A wooden clothes pin clasped at the base of
the shaft will work.
There are two types of switches used, both switches are lighted, but one
utilizes a funtion “ON” indicator. Each switch has the function it controls
printed on the switch. Press the top of the switch to start the function and
press the bottom to stop the function. Following is a list of switches used and
their functions.
PEDAL IN/OUT:
After sitting in the driver’s seat and making adjustments to the mirrors
and steering wheel, use the Pedal In/Out switch to adjust the brake
and throttle pedals to be either closer or farther away. Locate the
switch on the driver’s console panel marked
Pedal IN/OUT . The
switch moves the pedals inward or outward approximately three
inches. If you need to move the pedals inward, just push the switch.
When the pedals reach the end of their traveling distance, the pedals
will automatically stop. Release the switch.
