starter. When you release the switch, the coach

driver’s compartment only.
REAR AUTOMOTIVE HEATER
The rear automotive heater supplies heat to
the rear portion of the coach while driving. The
fan is controlled by a 3-speed rotary switch. The
rear heater fan speed control is located on the
overhead console in the headliner above the re-
view mirror.
