CABIN
All vehicles are equipped with an automatic transmission, power steering and power brakes. The Ford F-350/F-
450 V8 engine displacement is 6.2 to 6.8 liters and an output of up to 440 hp.
IGNITION SWITCH
The ignition switch has 4 different key positions:
Position 0 (OFF):
The ignition is off.
Position I (Accessory)
allows the electrical accessories such as radio to operate while the engine is not running.
Position II (ON):
All electrical circuits are operational. Warning lamps and indicators are illuminated.
Position III (START)
cranks the engine. Please release the key as soon as the engine starts.
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
The gear selector is on the right-hand side of the steering column. The instrument cluster displays the current
position. Your right foot must be depressing the brake pedal to shift. The gear selector has the following
positions:
P
PARK
to start or turn off the engine. The key can only be removed while in this position.
R
REVERSE
to reverse the vehicle. The rear-view camera is activated automatically.
N
NEUTRAL
select this position for towing only!
D
DRIVE
most efficient position for all normal driving conditions.
+/-
MANUAL
can be used to shift up or down manually by pressing the + and
–
button.
DIESEL ENGINE BRAKE
The diesel engine brake can be used together with the Tow/Haul function. When activated, braking
assistance from the engine is boosted providing enhanced handling and control, and reduced brake
and transmission wear while going downhill. Press the button on the dashboard to switch the
function ON or OFF.
TOW/HAUL
The Tow/Haul function optimizes the shifting performance and reduces the potential
for transmission overheating or failure due to excessive shifting when driving in
mountainous areas.
This provides extra power when going uphill and braking assistance
from the engine when going downhill to reduce the risk of overheating the vehicle
’s
brakes. Select this function by pressing the button at the end of the shift lever.
CRUISE CONTROL
The RV is equipped with Cruise Control. The minimum speed required for its use is 50 km/h. We do not
recommend using the cruise control on mountain roads because it would cause irregular shifting and
accelerating resulting in excess transmission wear and increased fuel consumption.
CAUTION:
Do not leave the ignition key in position 0 or I without the engine running for too long to prevent
the engine battery from losing all of its charge.
