WARNING! Before operating your vehicle after
it has been parked, do not forget to push in
the parking brake valve to release the parking
brakes. Failure to release your parking brakes
before putting the vehicle into motion can
cause fire or loss of control of the vehicle,
which can result in death or personal injury.
Heater-Air Conditioning Controls
Your heat and air conditioning controls are mounted in the
right hand instrument panel. Additionally, the sleeper com-
partment may also contain a separate heating and cooling
system with separate controls.
WARNING! Exhaust fumes from the engine
contain carbon monoxide, a colorless and
odorless gas. Do not breathe the engine
exhaust gas. A poorly maintained, damaged
or corroded exhaust system can allow carbon
monoxide to enter the cab. Entry of carbon
monoxide into the cab is also possible from
other vehicles nearby. Failure to properly
maintain your vehicle could cause carbon
monoxide to enter the cab/sleeper and cause
death or serious illness.
WARNING! ever idle your vehicle for pro-
longed periods of time if you sense that
exhaust fumes are entering the cab or sleeper.
Investigate the cause of the fumes and correct
it as soon as possible. If the vehicle must be
driven under these conditions, drive only with
the windows open. Failure to repair the
source of the exhaust fumes may lead to
death, injury or personal harm.
NOTES:Keep the engine exhaust system and the
vehicle’s ventilation system properly maintained.
It is recommended that the vehicle’s exhaust sys-
tem and cab be inspected
•by a competent technician every 15,000 miles
•when a change is noticed in the sound of the
exhaust system
•if the exhaust system, underbody, or cab is dam-
aged
NOTE: To allow for proper operation of the vehicle
ventilation system, keep the inlet grille at the base
of the windshield clear of snow, ice, leaves and
other obstructions at all times.
