See the Index, under Brake Safety and Emergency for
more complete information on when and how to use your
trailer brake
WARNING! It is dangerous to use air-applied
trailer brakes for parking or holding a vehicle.
Air system pressure can bleed down and
release the brakes. You could have a vehicle
roll-away resulting in an accident involving
death or personal injury. Always apply the
parking brakes for parking or holding your
vehicle on grade.
Tilt-Telescoping Steering Column
Tilt-Telescope Lever
The telescoping feature of the steering wheel allows for-
ward and rearward movement of the wheel. The tilting fea-
ture allows you to move the wheel up and down.
WARNING! Make all adjustments to the steer-
ing mechanism while the vehicle is stopped.
Adjusting the Tilt-Telescoping Steering Wheel
while the vehicle is in motion could cause
loss of control. You wouldn’t be able to steer
properly and could have an accident resulting
in death or personal injury.
To position the wheel: Locate the Tilt-Telescope Lever
on the floor, to the left of the steering column. Push this
lever toward the floor. Move the steering wheel to the
desired angle and height. Release the lever to lock in the
correct position.
Dash-Mounted Features
Keys and Locks
The same key fits your ignition, doors, and sleeper lug-
gage compartment. Frame-mounted tool box locks, lock-
ing fuel tank caps, and glove boxes each have individual
keys.
