SECTION 3 –
DRIVING YOUR MOTOR HOME
How it works:
•
During a light rain or mist, when your
windshield needs a clearing wipe, press the
button once and the wiper will swipe back and
forth once at Lo speed. Let’s say 7 seconds
later, the windshield needs another wipe -
press the button again and the delay time will
be set to 7 seconds.
•
If the mist gets heavier and you press the
button again 3 seconds after the last wipe, the
delay time will be reset to 3 seconds.
•
The delay time can be set from approximately
1 to 30 seconds.
Wash/Wipe
•
Press switch to activate Lo wipers and spray
washer fluid onto the windshield for as long as
you hold the button.
•
After you release the button, the wipers will
continue for three wipe cycles, then turn off.
•
If wipers are already active, pressing the
switch will simply spray fluid onto the
windshield without affecting wiper setting.
Idle Speed Control
The cruise control system can also be used to
control diesel engine idle speed (rpm) while
parked.
High Idle
•
Shift the transmission into Neutral (N).
•
On the turn signal lever, move the slide switch
to the ON position or press the ON button on
the steering wheel. Accelerate to the desired
rpm. Press and release the SET/COAST or
SET/COAST button on the steering wheel.
•
Disengage by stepping on the brake pedal, by
moving the ON/OFF switch to the OFF
position, or by pressing the OFF button on the
steering wheel.
Further Information
See the chassis manual in your InfoCase for
complete operating instructions and other
information on all of the features of your
SmartWheel.
BATTERY BOOST SWITCH
The Battery Boost switch can be used to draw
emergency starting power from the house
batteries to start the engine if the chassis battery
is discharged.
Press and Hold the Battery Boost switch in the
ON position while turning ignition key for
emergency starting power.
NOTE: The House/Coach Battery Disconnect
switch near the entrance door must be
ON and house batteries must be
sufficiently charged for this feature to
work.
CAUTION
Do not operate engine at low idle for long
periods with engine coolant temperature
below the minimum specification in your
diesel engine manual. This can result in
the following:
•
Fuel dilution of the lubricating oil
•
Carbon build up in the cylinder
•
Cylinder head valve sticking
•
Reduced performance
