Engine Block Heater (Optional)
To preheat the engine before starting, plug
the optional engine block heater into a
properly grounded AC electrical source. Do
not start the engine with the heater
plugged in.
WARNING
Engine block heaters can cause fires
which may result in death, injury
and/or property damage if not properly
maintained and operated. Regularly in-
spect the engine block heater wiring
and connector for damaged or frayed
wires. DO NOT use the heater if there
are any signs of problems. Contact
your authorized dealer or the manufac-
turer of the heater if you are in need of
repairs or information.
CAUTION
Always unplug heater before starting
the engine. Damage to the cooling
system could occur if the heater is not
turned OFF (unplugged).
Depending on engine make, when the
temperature falls below -10°F (-24°C), the
block heater is required.
Engine Speed Control
The minimum and maximum engine
speeds that can be set are limited by a
programmed value in the electronic unit.
This value may be below the idling speed.
In this case it will, however, not fall below
idling speed.
The programmed engine speeds and
conditions for activation or deactivation of
the engine speed control can be modified
by an Authorized Dealership on request.
Activating the Engine Speed
Control
Press the 'SET+' or 'SET –' button (1) to
immediately increase the engine speed to
the set speed value. This value may have
been or can be changed within specific
limits by an Authorized Dealership to meet
the customer's requirements.
Hold down the 'SET+'- or 'SET–' button on
the steering wheel switch (1) to gradually
increase or decrease the engine speed.
NOTE
If the engine speed control is active,
the engine brake is deactivated.
NOTE
Depending on how the electronic unit
is programmed, the accelerator pedal
is active or not. When speed is in-
creased via the accelerator pedal, the
speed reduces to the set speed value
once the accelerator pedal is released.
