freightliner cascadia - Sleeper Climate Control

Recirculation mode limits the amount of outside air
that enters the cab. Press the recirculation button to
prevent dusty or smoky air from entering the cab.
NOTE: To prevent the buildup of odors and/or
oxygen depletion inside the cab, the system
switches from full recirculation mode to partial
recirculation mode after 20 minutes.
The temperature control switch is used to select the
desired temperature. Turn the switch clockwise to the
red area for warm air. Turn the switch counterclock-
wise to the blue area for cool air.
The A/C cools and dehumidifies the air inside the
cab. Press the A/C button, located in the center of
the temperature control switch, to turn the A/C on
and off.
The air selection switch allows the control of air flow
through the face outlets, the floor outlets, the defrost
(windshield) outlets, or a combination of these out-
lets. See
Fig. 5.33.
Bunk-Override Button
The bunk-override button is located in the center of
the cab air-selection switch (sleeper-cabs only). See
Fig. 5.33.
Press the bunk-override button to make the cab con-
trols override the settings on the sleeper temperature
control panel; the sleeper temperature will mimic the
cab settings. An amber LED in the button is illumi-
nated when the bunk-override mode is activated.
When the override switch is not activated, the cab
climate control panel can be adjusted without affect-
ing the sleeper settings.
Sleeper Climate Control
The sleeper temperature can be controlled from the
sleeper climate control panel or from the cab climate
control panel if the bunk-override button is activated.
The fan switch controls the sleeper temperature fan
speed. To increase airflow, turn the switch clockwise
to a higher number. To decrease the airflow, turn the
switch counterclockwise to a lower number. See
Fig. 5.34.
The temperature control switch is used to select the
desired temperature in the sleeper. Turn the switch
clockwise to the red area for warm air. Turn the
switch counterclockwise to the blue area for cool air.
Press the button in the center of the temperature
control switch to activate the A/C.
