FUEL GAUGE LIMITATIONS
The fuel gauge may not provide anaccurate reading when your vehicle is onan incline.
LOCATING THE FUEL FILLERDOOR
The arrow adjacent to the fuel pumpsymbol indicates on which side of yourvehicle the fuel filler door is located.
WHAT IS THE LOW FUELREMINDER
A low fuel level reminder displays andsounds when the distance to emptyreaches 50 mi (80 km),25 mi (40 km),12 mi (20 km) and 0 mi (0 km).
Note:The low fuel reminder can appear atdifferent fuel gauge positions depending onfuel economy conditions. This variation isnormal.
WHAT IS DISTANCE TO EMPTY
Indicates the approximate distance yourvehicle can travel on the fuel remaining inthe tank. Changes in driving pattern cancause the value to not only decrease butalso increase or stay constant for periodsof time.
Note:When you have a trailer connected,your distance to empty accounts for thetrailer.

Note:This is a configurable gauge.
TRANSMISSION FLUID
TEMPERATURE GAUGE
Indicates the transmission fluidtemperature.
Special operating conditions can causehigher than normal operatingtemperatures. See Special OperatingConditions Scheduled Maintenance(page 603).
Note:This is a configurable gauge.

Manually Shifting Gears in Manual(M)
Use this feature to select a specific gear.
Note:We recommend using this feature forengine braking, driving on hilly ormountainous roads, or when towing a trailer.See Towing a Trailer (page 365).
•Shift to manual (M) to switch thefeature on.
•Press the upper (+) button to upshift.
•Press the lower (-) button todownshift.
•Shift to drive (D) to switch the featureoff.
USING PROGRESSIVE RANGE
SELECTION
Progressive range selection gives you theability to lock out gears from the automaticshifting range. This could provide you withan improved driving experience by reducingtransmission shifts, for example, in slipperyconditions or steep slopes.
With the transmission in drive (D), pressthe - button to begin to switch the featureon.
Press the - button again to continue lockingout higher gears. Beginning with the highestgear, the instrument cluster will indicatethe current gear and highest gear available.For example, press the - button twice tolock out 10th and 9th gears.
Note:The instrument cluster will indicatethe current gear and highest gear available.
Press the + button to unlock gears to allowthe transmission to shift to higher gears.
Note: The transmission automaticallyshifts within the gear range you select.
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
AUDIBLE WARNINGS
Sounds if any of the following occur:
•You switch your vehicle off beforeshifting into park (P).
•You open the driver door before shiftinginto park (P).
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.

BRAKE PRECAUTIONS
Wet brakes result in reduced brakingefficiency. Gently press the brake pedal afew times when leaving a car wash ordriving from standing water to dry thebrakes.
Note:Depending on applicable laws andregulations in the country where your vehiclewas originally built, the stoplamps couldflash during heavy braking. The hazardwarning flashers could also turn on whenyour vehicle comes to a stop.
ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM
ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEMLIMITATIONS
The anti-lock braking system does noteliminate the risk of crash when:
•You drive too closely to the vehicle infront of you.
•Your vehicle is hydroplaning.
•You take corners too fast.
•The road surface is poor.
Note: If the system activates, the brakepedal could pulse and travel further.Maintain pressure on the brake pedal.
BRAKE OVER ACCELERATOR
In the event the accelerator pedalbecomes stuck or entrapped, apply steadyand firm pressure to the brake pedal toslow the vehicle and reduce engine power.If you experience this condition, apply thebrakes and bring your vehicle to a safestop. Move the transmission to park (P),switch the engine off and apply the parkingbrake. Inspect the accelerator pedal forany interference. If none are found and thecondition persists, have your vehicle towedto the nearest authorized dealer.
LOCATING THE BRAKE FLUID
RESERVOIR
See Under Hood Overview (page 441).
CHECKING THE BRAKE FLUID
WARNING: Do not use any fluidother than the recommended brake fluidas this will reduce brake efficiency. Useof incorrect fluid could result in the lossof vehicle control, serious personal injuryor death.
WARNING: Only use brake fluidfrom a sealed container. Contaminationwith dirt, water, petroleum products orother materials may result in brakesystem damage or failure. Failure toadhere to this warning could result in theloss of vehicle control, serious personalinjury or death.
WARNING: Do not allow the fluidto touch your skin or eyes. If thishappens, rinse the affected areasimmediately with plenty of water andcontact your physician.
WARNING: The brake systemcould be affected if the brake fluid levelis below the MIN mark or above the MAXmark on the brake fluid reservoir.

When operating your vehicle with asnowplow:
•Do not exceed 45 mph (72 km/h).
•Your engine could run at a highertemperature than normal.
•If you are driving more than 15 mi(24 km) at temperatures abovefreezing, angle the plow bladeeither full left or full right to providemaximum airflow to the radiator.
•If you are driving less than 15 mi(24 km) at speeds up to 45 mph(72 km/h) in cold weather, you donot need to worry about bladeposition to provide maximumairflow.
•Shift to 4L when plowing in small areasat speeds below 5 mph (8 km/h).
•Shift to 4H when plowing larger areasor light snow at higher speeds above5 mph (8 km/h). Do not exceed15 mph (24 km/h).
•Do not shift the transmission from aforward gear to reverse (R) until theengine is at idle and the wheels havestopped.
Note:Careless or high-speed driving whensnowplowing, which results in significantvehicle decelerations, can deploy the airbag.Such driving also increases the risk ofaccidents.
Note:Drive your vehicle at least 500 mi(800 km) before using your vehicle forsnowplowing.
Note:Follow the severe duty schedule forengine oil and transmission fluid changeintervals. See Special OperatingConditions Scheduled Maintenance (page608).
