SECTION 3 –
DRIVING YOUR MOTOR HOME
When this switch is ON, the transmission will
automatically shift to the overdrive gear
whenever possible for greatest fuel economy.
Some driving situations, however, may
require the transmission to be temporarily
disabled from shifting into overdrive gear, such
as when towing a car or trailer, driving in rolling
hill country, or driving into a strong headwind
where the transmission will repeatedly shift up
and down causing annoyance and reduced fuel
economy.
Further Information
See the chassis manual in your InfoCase for
further information on this switch.
TOW/HAUL TRANSMISSION
MODE
Ford
®
Chassis only
This mode locks out Overdrive and helps
reduce gear “hunting” by the automatic
transmission while towing. It also improves
power delivery and uses engine braking to help
control vehicle speed when descending hills.
This mode may also be useful when the coach
is fully loaded or when driving into a strong
headwind.
Further Information
See the chassis manual in your InfoCase for
further operating instructions and cautions.
MAP LIGHT SWITCH
Turn the driver side map light on using the
Panel Dim thumbwheel. Roll it up to maximum
position until you feel it click into the map light
“On” position.
Further Information

HAZARD WARNING FLASHERS
The hazard warning flashers provide
additional safety when the vehicle must be
stopped on the side of the roadway and presents a
possible hazard to other motorists. When the
flashers are on, it serves as a warning to other
drivers.
