#'''Comp. Light Master -''' When this switch in the ON position provides power to all of the exterior compartment light switches. As each compartment door is opened, the light automatically comes on; closing the door turns the light off.
#'''Radar Master - T'''urns on power to the Radar
#'''Heat''' - To turn on the heater blower for the pilot's area press this switch to either the HI- or LOW position. Note: when the front heat control is in cool position the heat switches (14) and (17) can be used to provide cool air circulation by turning on the blowers.
#'''Mirror Heat''' - This switch turns on a thermostatically controlled heater in the right and left outside mirrors (convex mirrors excluded ). With the switch ON the Mirror Heaters will automatically come on to defog the mirrors.
#'''LP Heat''' - When in the ON position, 12v. power is supplied to the LPG furnaces.
#'''Heat''' - To turn on the heater blower for the co-pilot's area press this switch to either the '''HI- or LOW''' position. Note that when the front heat control is in cool position the heat switches (14) and (17) can be used to provide cool air circulation by turning on the blowers.
#'''Defrost''' - Turns on the blower for defrosting or defogging the front windshield. Set to HI-or LOW speed as desired.
#'''Aux Battery''' - When this switch is pressed, a jumper solenoid connects the generator and coach batteries together (in parallel) to provide extra power for cranking the generator or coach. Releasing the switch immediately isolates the two battery systems.
#'''Air Level Master''' - Allows you to level the coach to a certain extent using the air suspension. This is an optional system and should only be used for short periods of time.
#'''Horn Selector''' - Allows selection of the air or electric horns when the steering wheel horn button is depressed.
#'''Fan Override''' - This switch operates the engine cooling fan in the engine compartment. Normally, this fan will operate at 125 to 400 RPM from an engine RPM of idle to 2100. If the coolant temperature reaches 195°F, the fan will be thermostatically controlled to run at 1800 RPM. To override the thermostat turn the Fan Override switch ON, and the engine cooling fan will turn 1800 RPM continuously at any temperature.
#'''Air Compressor Master''' - This switch operates the auxiliary air compressor (optional equipment) which is a 120 vac operated back up air compressor.
#'''Backup Alarm''' - This switch turns the back-up alarm buzzer off.
#'''Suspension Dump''' - This switch controls the inflation of the air suspension systems for the front and rear axles. Move switch to the right to dump the bags.
#'''Tax Axel Dump''' - In UP position tag axle air suspension is pressurized as indicated on dash gauge TAG AXLE PRESSURE . When switch is moved right pressure in tag axle is dumped.
#*Note: SUSP. DUMP accessory warning light is lit: set switch to UP position to re-inflate the air bags before driving away. (System air pressure must be at least 65 psi.)
#*Your motorhome is equipped with air suspension bags which '''cushion''' the front, rear and tag axles. Dumping these air bags when the vehicle is parked allows the rubber bumpers to come together and eliminate vehicle '''springiness.''' Two switches control dumping and filling of the respective air bags. The '''SUSP. DUMP''' switch controls the front and rear axle suspension; the '''TAG DUMP switch''' controls the tag axle only. '''''Note:''' The accessory air tank must contain at least 65 PSI pressure for the air switch to function. The accessory air tank pressure does not register on the dash air pressure gauges.''
#*Moving the '''SUSP. DUMP''' switch to the '''UP''' position applies air pressure to three air pilot-operated valves on the suspension system. Two of these valves are located on the rear axle; and one is located on the front axle. The pilot air shifts the valves, cutting off the air supply to the air bags and allows the air in the bags to escape. After the suspension system has been dumped, and the ignition is turned on, a warning pilot light is illuminated on the dash to warn the driver that the system is dumped and not to drive the vehicle until the SUSP. DUMP switch is set to the up position. '''''Note:''' If the leveling jacks are to be used while the coach is parked, the jacks must be lowered to level the vehicle '''before''' the air bags are dumped. If the air bags are dumped before the jacks are down, the vehicle is too low for the jacks to unfold into lifting position properly. This could damage the jacks. When dumping, the tag axle is dumped first, then the front and rear axles. However, when pressurizing, the front and rear axles are pressurized first, then the tag axle.''
#'''Wiper Delay''' - Knob adjusts wiper speed from 2 to 20 sweeps per minute when intermittent operation is selected at steering column switch lever.
#'''Hazard Switch''' - This switch turns on the emergency flashers. When switch is used both turn signals will flash in unison.
#'''The Horn''' (Figure 2-4) - This corner of the dash has 3 different switches for use with the musical horn
#*The SELECTOR switch incorporates 2 thumb wheels for selecting the tune to be played. Use The Horn manual to select a tune. Then set the thumb-wheels to the corresponding numbers or number and letter. ''Note: that if a tune is playing, making a new selection on the selector switch will not affect the tune playing.''
#*The POWER switch provides power to the musical horn. When this switch is turned ON the horn will immediately start playing the tune that corresponds to the digits on the selector switch.
#*The PLAY switch (momentary) resets the horn to the beginning of tune chosen by the Selector switch. If the PLAY switch is pressed while a tune is playing, that tune will stop instantly and the horn will reset to the beginning of the tune that corresponds to the digits on the SELECTOR.
#'''Auxiliary Switch''' - When set to the EXTENDED position, activates a relay automatically locking the outside entry step in the out position. The indicator light comes on when the ignition switch is turned on to remind you that you need to retract the step before proceeding.
#'''Low Washer Fluid Light''' - Light indicates when there is approximately 1 /4 contained in the fluid reservoir.
#'''Right Turn Indicator''' - When the turn signal lever , (steering column control section), is pushed up into the right turn position this indicator flashes in conjunction with the outside directional lights . The right cornering light will come on continuously if the headlights or the parking lights are turned on while the turn signal lever calls for a right turn. The indicator , along with the left turn indicator and all outside directional lights, flash in unison when the HAZARD switch (item 28) is pressed to the on position .
#'''Turbo Boost Gauge''' - Registers the psi of the Turbo Compressor outlet. The gauge should read a maximum of 23.2 psi at maximum power.
#'''Transmission Oil Temperature Gauge''' - Monitors and gives constant temperature readings of the transmission oil. Maximum allowable is 330°F.
#Left Turn Indicator-When the turn signal lever is pulled down into the left turn position , this indicator flashes in conjunction with the outside directional lights. The left cornering light will come on continuously if the headlights or the parking lights are turned on while the turn signal lever calls for a left turn.
#'''Aisle Lights''' - This switch allows you to turn on or off the fluorescent aisle lights from the pilot 's chair.
#Dash Dimmer - Will only operate when the headlight switch is on. The background lighting (electroluminescent) for the dash can be brightened by turning counter-clockwise and dimmed by turning clockwise.
#'''Headlights''' - The Headlight switch serves two functions . Press P for parking lights and gauge illumination. Press the bulb symbol for headlights, parking lights and gauge illumination. The dimmer controls brightness of all gauges in dash. Turn counter-clockwise to increase or clockwise to decrease the brightness .

# '''Transmission Shift Selector''' - Figure 2-5 shows the selector for the 8V92 engine. This is the push button shift selector made avail able with the Allison Transmission Electronic Control (ATE C). With ATEC, shifts are more accurate and positive than those obtainable with conventional hydraulic controls. ATEC makes it possible to precisely match the optimum fuel economy/shift curve relationship. Only four speeds are required with this system. See Diesel Engine/Transmission Operation later in this section for detailed description.
# '''Transmission Retarder''' - Provides power to Transmission Retarder/Brake System. The adjacent indicator lights when the retarder is operational. Use of RETARDER HAND CONTROL will be covered later in this chapter.
# '''Accessory Position''' - These blank positions may be used for the installation of additional switches and indicator lights for customer add on equipment.
#* '''Caution:''' Use existing panel holes for installation of additional controls or indicators. Drilling new holes will destroy the electroluminescent features.
# '''Marker Lights''' - Press this switch to ON to turn on the clearance, side marker and identification lamps located on the top sides and ends of the coach. This switch may also be flipped on and off to flash the marker lights as a courtesy signal.
# '''Driving Lights''' - The driving lights are mounted behind the front bumper in a retracted position. When the switch is energized the driving lights are lowered into position (if the suspension is at ride height). The driving lights do not come on unless the high beam light switch is energized and the driving lights are in the down position. The driving lights go out when the lights are switched to low beam or when the driving lights switch is turned off. When the driving lights switch is turned off the driving lights retract back to the stored position.
# '''Cruise Control -''' These three switches operate in the following manner: The switch on the left turns the cruise control on or off. The switch on the right locks the cruise control in on the desired cruising speed and permits resetting at a lower speed following a previous setting. The switch in the middle permits returning to cruising speed following disengagement by stopping and obtaining a higher cruising speed.
#* '''''Note:''' The coach must be traveling at least 35 MPH before the cruise control will operate properly.'' When the desired speed is reached, press the On-Off switch to the On position, then press the Set-Coast switch to the Set position and hold for two seconds before releasing. The coach should automatically remain at that speed. If a lower cruise speed is desired, press the Set-Coast switch to the Coast position and hold until the de sired cruising speed is obtained. Release the switch immediately. The coach should remain at the new speed. Following disengagement of the cruise control by breaking the previously set cruising speed may be obtained by depressing the Resume-Accel switch to the Resume position for two seconds. Note that the coach should be at or above 35 MPH before attempting the Resume function. In addition, if the ignition switch has been turned off, the previous cruise speed will be erased from memory and the new cruise speed will be that speed when the Resume switch was pressed. If a higher cruising speed is desired and the cruise is enabled, press the Resume-Acee! switch to the Accel position. The coach will begin to accelerate. When the higher desired cruising speed is obtained, immediately release the Accel switch. The coach should remain at the new speed.
