Trailer Brake Hand Control Valve
(Option)
If your vehicle has this feature, it is located near the
center console on the floor.
This feature lets you apply the trailer brakes without
applying the tractor brakes. You can apply the trailer
brakes a little, or apply them all the way, if needed.
Press the trailer brake hand control valve downward to
apply the trailer brakes. Pull the hand control valve
upward to release the trailer brakes.
Use this control only when you're driving. Don't use it
for parking or to hold the rig on a hill.
CAUTION:
Using the trailer brake hand control for parking or
for holding the vehicle on a hill may not keep the
vehicle from rolling. This can happen if someone
hits the valve by accident, or if air pressure bleeds
from the system. If the vehicle rolls, you or others
could be injured. To park the vehicle or hold it on
a hill, use the parking brake properly.
Exterior Lamps
The control located to the left of the steering column
operates the exterior lamps.
