How to Set the Fuel Consumption
Target
Adjusting the fuel consumption target in the
ECO settings menu of the Driver
Performance Assistant (DPA).
To set the fuel consumption target, turn the
Menu Control Switch (MCS) to alter the
fuel consumption target on the DPA.
The target might display --.- when the
vehicle is first taken into service, or if the
vehicle's settings have been changed by
an authorized dealer. If so, the target must
be set again.
Steering
The steering gear is hydraulically assisted.
As excessive pressure may damage the
hydraulic pump, stop turning the steering
wheel when the wheels are at full lock or
are blocked by an obstacle. The steering
gear may be damaged, if this is ignored.
ABS Brakes
The ABS system is an Anti-lock Braking
System.
The ABS ensures good brake stability and
good steering in a critical braking situation.
By preventing the wheels from locking, the
steering characteristics of the vehicle are
retained.
WARNING
The ABS does not release the driver
from his obligation to adapt his driving
style to the traffic and road surface
conditions. The anti-lock protection
cannot offset the results of driving too
close to the vehicle in front or taking a
bend at too high a speed.
WARNING
Do not adapt your driving style to the
ABS system! Above all, do not brake
later and then harder. This only causes
unnecessary tire wear. It may also be
hazardous for other road users.
NOTE
Occasionally, but not always, your
braking distance will be shorter with
ABS.
WARNING
If the yellow warning symbol "ABS
truck fault" is activated, there is a fault
in the ABS system of the prime mover.
