Heater-Air Conditioning Controls
Your heat and air conditioning controls are mounted in the
“D” instrument panel in conventional models. Additionally,
the sleeper compartment 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 or sleeper. 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 causes
serious illness.
Never idle your vehicle for prolonged periods of
time if you sense that exhaust fumes are enter-
ing 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 condi-
tions, drive only with the windows open. Failure
to repair the source of the exhaust fumes may
lead to personal harm.
NOTES:
•Keep the engine exhaust system and the vehi-
cle’s cab/sleeper ventilation system properly
maintained. It is recommended that the vehicle’s
exhaust system and cab/sleeper be inspected:
– By a competent technician every 15,000 miles
– Whenever a change is noticed in the sound of
the exhaust system
– Whenever the exhaust system, underbody, cab
or sleeper is damaged
•To allow for proper operation of the vehicle venti-
lation system, keep the inlet grille at the base of
the windshield clear of snow, ice, leaves and
other obstructions at all times.
•Do not stay in the vehicle with the engine running
or idling for more than 10 minutes with the vehi-
cle’s Heater and A/C ventilation system in
RECIRC or at LOW FAN SPEED. Even with the
ventilation system On, running the engine while
parked or stopped for prolonged periods of time is
not recommended.
