FULL POWER BRAKE
WARNING
If the brake warning lamp in the
instrument cluster remains
illuminated after engine start up, this
indicates a system failure in the Full Power
Brake system. Stop the vehicle safely as
soon as possible and seek service
immediately. This system incorporates standard braking,
an anti-lock braking system (ABS) and
optional Power Park Brake into one fully
integrated hydraulic brake system. With
the Full Power Brake system, braking
energy is stored, similar to an air brake
system, resulting in faster response times
and shorter stopping distances. This is
accomplished using motor and pump
assemblies that pressurize the system by
pumping brake fluid into accumulators.
This is similar to the air compressor of an
air brake system pressurizing the air tanks.
The system includes a master cylinder that
provides the normal pedal feel and
transfers the pedal force, via brake fluid,
to the main components of the system.
Note:
The motor and pumps run
momentarily with the ignition switch in the
on or run position, or in the off position with
the brake pedal pressed.
Note: During normal driving, you may hear
the pump and motors replenishing the
accumulators. This is a normal function of
the system. AIR BRAKES WARNINGS
Do not drive or continue to drive if the
low air pressure buzzer is sounding
or the brake warning light is lit. These
warnings indicate that air pressure is not
to normal operating level. Continued use
of the vehicle could result in loss of braking
ability. Avoid repeated light application of
the brake pedal. This depletes air
pressure faster and could result in
loss of braking capability. Do not move the vehicle when the
air pressure is insufficient because
the brake system may be inoperative.
After starting the engine, give the air
compressor time to build up the air
pressure to 60 psi (414 kPa) before moving
your vehicle. Periodically check the air pressure gauge
while driving. Pressure should range
between approximately 100 psi (690 kPa)
to
130 psi (896 kPa). The air compressor
governor cut-in and cutout pressure
settings are set at the factory and are not
adjustable.

To make sure the emissions control
systems operate effectively, you should
have the services listed in the maintenance
schedule performed at the specified time
and mileage intervals. You should avoid
running out of fuel or turning off the ignition
when your vehicle is moving, especially at
high speeds.
Do not make unauthorized modifications
to the engine or vehicle. Modifications
causing increased amounts of unburned
fuel to reach the exhaust system can
significantly increase the temperature of
the engine compartment and the exhaust
system.
Avoid driving your vehicle if it does not
operate properly. If the engine diesels
(more than five seconds of engine run-on
after shut-off), misfires, surges, stalls or
backfires, see an authorized dealer. Be alert
for fluid leakage, odor, smoke, loss of oil
pressure, or charge indicator or over
temperature warning.
Vehicles equipped with a diesel engine
cannot use diesel fuel blended with waste
oil if equipped with a catalytic
converter-muffler. Waste lube oil blending
in fuel plugs the catalytic
converter-muffler, resulting in a significant
loss of engine power.
Noise Emissions Warranty, Prohibited
Tampering Acts and Maintenance
On January 1, 1978, Federal regulations
became effective governing the noise
emissions on trucks over 10000 pounds
(4536 kilograms) GVWR. The following
statements concerning prohibited
tampering acts and maintenance and the
noise warranty are found in the warranty
information, and are applicable to
completed trucks.
Tampering with Noise Control System
Prohibited
Federal law prohibits the following acts or
the causing thereof: (1) The removal or
rendering inoperative, by any person other
than for purposes of maintenance, repair
or replacement, of any device or element
of design incorporated into any new vehicle
for the purpose of noise control prior to its
sale or delivery to the ultimate purchaser
or while it is in use, or (2) the use of the
vehicle after such device or element of
design has been removed or rendered
inoperative by any person.
Among those acts presumed to constitute
tampering are the following acts listed:
Acts
Vehicle system
Removal of noise shields, hood blanket, tunnel liner oracoustical absorptive material.
Acoustical shielding
Removal or rendering inoperative the engine speed
governor to allow engine speed to exceed manufacturer specifications. Removal of engine mounted noise shield or oil pan enclosure.
Engine
Removal of the air duct, silencer, air cleaner, and/or air
cleaner element and baffle in air cleaner; re-indexing of air cleaner.
Engine air induction
