DRIVING YOUR MOTOR HOME

ENGINE BLOCK HEATER

Your coach is equipped with an engine block

heater to assist starting in freezing temperatures.

The power cord is located in the rear cargo com-

partment on the driver side of the coach. When

plugged into the receptacle, the heater is connect-

ed to both the shoreline and the auxiliary genera-

tor, so extension cords are not needed under most

circumstances. The power switch is on the for-

ward bedroom wall on the driver’s side of the

coach.

To Use the Engine Heater

With the shoreline cord plugged into a shore-

line hookup, turn on the engine heater power

switch on the forward bedroom wall on the driv-

er’s side of the coach.

If a shoreline hookup is not available, just start

the auxiliary generator to provide power to the

engine heater.

REMEMBER! Turn the engine heater switch off

after starting the engine. The heater will keep op-

erating for as long as it is supplied with electrici-

ty. If the switch is left on, the engine heater will

come on each time you hook up the shoreline

cord or start the generator.

PARKING BRAKES

The parking brakes are applied by pulling out-

ward on the large black knob on the dash to the

left of the ignition switch. Push the knob in to re-

lease the brakes.

Use the parking brakes whenever the vehicle

is parked. Never try to drive the vehicle with the

park brake applied. This can cause excessive

wear on the brakes and may damage the transmis-

sion.

NOTE: It is normal to hear an occasional burst

of air pressure from the rear of the vehi-

cle. This is an automatic moisture purg-

ing feature of the air brake system. See

the Brakes section of your Freightliner

chassis manual for instructions on peri-

odic draining of brake air tank.
