EQUIPPED)
ENGINE BLOCK HEATERPRECAUTIONS
WARNING: Failure to follow engineblock heater instructions could result inproperty damage or serious personalinjury.
WARNING: Do not use your heaterwith ungrounded electrical systems ortwo-pronged adapters. There is a risk ofelectrical shock.
WARNING: Do not fully close thehood, or allow it to drop under its ownweight when using the engine blockheater. This could damage the powercable and may cause an electrical shortresulting in fire, injury and propertydamage.
We recommend that you do the followingfor a safe and correct operation:
•Use a 16-gauge outdoor extension cordthat is product certified byUnderwriter’s Laboratory (UL) orCanadian Standards Association(CSA). This extension cord must besuitable for use outdoors, in coldtemperatures, and be clearly markedSuitable for Use with OutdoorAppliances. Do not use an indoorextension cord outdoors. This couldresult in an electric shock or become afire hazard.
•Use as short an extension cord aspossible.
•Do not use multiple extension cords.
•Make sure that when in operation, theextension cord plug and engine blockheater cord plug connections are freeand clear of water. This could cause anelectric shock or fire.
•If the engine block heater cord is underthe hood, do not remove the wiringfrom its original location. Do not closethe hood on the extension wiring.
•Park your vehicle in a clean area, clearof combustible materials.
•Firmly connect the engine block heatercord and the extension cord.
•Check the extension cord for heatanywhere when the system has beenoperating for approximately 30minutes.
•Unplug and properly stow the systembefore starting and driving your vehicle.The protective cover seals theterminals of the engine block heatercord plug when not in use.
•Check the engine block heater systemfor proper operation before winter.

HOW DOES THE ENGINE BLOCKHEATER WORK
The engine block heater warms the enginecoolant. This allows the climate controlsystem to quickly respond. The equipmentincludes a heater element installed in theengine block and a wire harness. You canconnect the system to a grounded 110 voltAC electrical source.
Note:The engine block heater is mosteffective when outdoor temperatures arebelow 0°F (-18°C). We recommend the useof engine block heater to improve enginecold start performance.
USING THE ENGINE BLOCKHEATER
Make sure the receptacle terminals areclean and dry prior to use. Clean them witha dry cloth if necessary.
The heater uses 0.4 to 1.0 kilowatt-hoursof energy per hour of use. The system doesnot have a thermostat. It achievesmaximum temperature afterapproximately three hours of operation.Using the engine block heater longer thanthree hours does not improve systemperformance and unnecessarily useselectricity.

POWER TAKE-OFF (IF EQUIPPED)
HOW DOES THE POWER TAKE-OFF WORK
Auxiliary equipment called power take-off,or PTO, is often added to the engine ortransmission to operate utility equipment.Examples include a wheel-lift for towtrucks, cranes, tools for construction or tireservice, and pumping fluids. PTOapplications draw auxiliary horsepowerfrom the powertrain, often while thevehicle is stationary. In this condition, thereis limited cooling air flow through theradiator and around the vehicle thatnormally occurs when a vehicle is moving.The aftermarket PTO system installer,having the most knowledge of the finalapplication, is responsible for determiningwhether additional chassis heat protectionor powertrain cooling is required, andalerting the user to the safe and properoperation.
Note:Use of auxiliary equipment thatexceeds the maximum Power Take-Off(PTO) load specified in our Truck BodyBuilders Layout Book can adversely affectthe performance of the powertrain system.Refer to the Body Builders Layout Book forinstructions about the appropriateinstallation of additional equipment.

HOW DOES FOUR-WHEEL
DRIVE WORK
Using the Electronic Shift On theFly System (If Equipped)
This four-wheel drive system utilizes a2-speed Electronic Shift On the Fly (ESOF)transfer case which is also known as apart-time system. This system offers thedriver two-wheel drive high, four-wheeldrive high, and four-wheel drive low asavailable modes of operation. When youselect either four-wheel drive high orfour-wheel drive low, the system providesmechanically locked four-wheel drivepower to both the front and rear wheelsfor use in off-road or slippery conditionssuch as deep snow, sand or mud. Whenyou select four-wheel drive low, the systemprovides additional gearing for increasedtorque multiplication for conditions likedeep sand, steep slopes, or pulling heavyobjects. Additionally, the system is capableof recreational flat towing by putting thetransfer case into a neutral position. SeeRecreationally Towing Your Vehicle(page 427).
There is further information available ondriving in unique driving conditions. SeeOff-Road Driving (page 412).
Your vehicle has manual hub locks on thedriver side and passenger side of yourvehicle. For proper operation, make surethat each hub is fully engaged and thatboth hub locks are set to the same position(both set to lock or both set to auto). Toengage lock, turn the hub locks completelyclockwise. To engage auto, turn the hublocks completely counterclockwise.
The ESOF four-wheel drive system:
•Provides 4x4 High engagement anddisengagement while the vehicle ismoving.
•Operates by a push button controllocated on the instrument panel thatallows you select 4x2, 4x4 High or 4x4Low operation.
•Uses auto-manual hub locks. When setto auto, the hubs engage anddisengage automatically based on the4x4 mode you select. When set to lock,the hubs remain engaged at all times.
•Increases fuel economy when used inthe hub lock's recommended automode.
Note:Auto-manual hub locks manuallylock by rotating the hub lock control fromauto to lock.
Note:Hub locks should be in auto modewhen in 4x2 mode. If hub locks are in lockmode in 4x2 mode, there will be additionalnoise from the front axle.
