Reversing Warner

• Engage reverse gear once for the high tone.
• Disengage reverse gear and then re-engage it within
7 seconds for the low tone.

Traction Control System (TCS)

With Traction Control System (TCS), better stability
and driveability is achieved. TCS automatically
reduces wheel spin by reducing the engine's driving
torque. At speeds below 40 km/h the TCS also
functions as an automatic differential brake and brakes
the wheel that is spinning.
TCS functions
The normal mode is that the TCS is active when the
truck is started. The indication lamp in the switch is
not on. Engage terrain TCS in difficult driving
conditions such as in sand, gravel or snow. Below is a
flow for how the button is used in relation to the

• Engage terrain-TCS by a short press on the switch.
The indication lamp in the switch lights.
• Disengage TCS completely by holding in the
switch for a short time. The indication lamp in the
switch flashes.
