Table 3.6, Example of Digital Switch Icons and Layout
Digital switches can be used to turn different vehicle
functions on or off. An indicator at the top of the digi-
tal button shows the status of the switch with a red
line indicating On.
the arrangement of the switches depends on the fea-
tures of the vehicle. In general switches are grouped
into pairs stacked on top of each other. If a feature
only has one switch or only one switch is available it
will be displayed at the top of the two switch column.
Optimized Idle
Optimized Idle reduces idle time by automatically
stopping and restarting the engine. Besides saving
fuel, it helps keep the batteries charged while main-
taining engine and cab temperature.
The following conditions must be met for the opti-
mized idle to function:
Vehicle in neutral gear
Parking brake set
Hood latched
Sleeper fan on
Optimized idle has four unique operating modes: bat-
tery, cold startability (engine oil temperature), interior
comfort mode, keyless.
Battery mode: starts the engine when battery
voltage is below a certain threshold.
Engine oil temperature mode: starts the engine
when the engine oil temperature is below a
certain threshold.
Comfort mode: starts the engine to maintain
the driver’s selected interior temperature
Keyless mode: maintains any of the modes
above without the key in the ignition switch.
Optimized idle can be started with the engine running
or the engine off.
