Batt Boost; Atc System; Exhaust Brake; Mirror Heat - Monaco DIPLOMAT 2004 Owner's Manual

BATT BOOST:

In the event the motorhome chassis battery has been drained and cannot start the
engine, this switch momentarily "jumps" the domestic battery to the motorhome
chassis battery to assist in starting the engine.

ATC SYSTEM:

The ATC system improves traction on slippery or unstable surfaces by preventing
excessive wheel slip (see Section 10 for detailed information).

EXHAUST BRAKE:

Auxiliary braking device for slowing down the motorhome. For flat dry road con-
ditions apply the exhaust brake until speed is reduced. The exhaust brake is
effective for speed control in town and on local routes. Use the exhaust brake to
slow down when preparing to exit onto an off-ramp, when approaching traffic
lights or when approaching slowed or stopped traffic. The exhaust brake is not a
substitute for the service brakes. Do not neglect service brake maintenance.
NOTE: Some municipalities have ordinances banning the use of the
exhause brake. Be sure to check road signs in densley populated
areas.

MIRROR HEAT:

The switch turns on the heaters in outside rearview mirrors. The mirror
heaters should be used when defogging or deicing as needed. To use the
mirror heat, press the switch to the ON position.
NOTE: Mirror heat should not be left ON unless
continuous fogging conditions occur.
AIR DUMP:
Will manually dump air from the air bags. May be an aid in leveling the
motorhome. Releasing the air from air bags will give the leveler more
range of travel for leveling. Ignition must be in accessory or run position.
NOTE: Never drive the motorhome with the air bags deflated. This
may damage the motorhome.
INC/DEC:
Will increase and decrease the engine idle in 25 rpm increments. There are
limits to the idle speed, about 700 to 875 rpm.
ENGINE DIAG (Not on all units):
Checks engine functions.
