BRAKE-SHIFT INTERLOCK

®
Ford Chassis
The Brake-Shift Interlock is a safety feature
that prevents the shift lever from being moved
from the Park position unless the ignition is ON
and the service brake pedal is pressed.
NOTE: If the brake light fuse is blown, the
interlock feature will not work properly
and an alternate method must be used.
See the chassis manual provided in your
InfoCase for detailed instructions on
what to do in this situation.
PARK BRAKE – FOOT PEDAL
®
Ford Chassis
The park brake foot pedal and release lever are
located beneath the left side of the dash.
Step the pedal down fully to apply and pull the
brake release knob to disengage.
FUEL PUMP SHUT-OFF
SWITCH
®
Ford Chassis Only
Vehicles built on Ford chassis are equipped
with an inertial-type switch that shuts off the fuel
pump in the event of collision. This switch must
be manually reset to resume the fuel supply to the
engine.
See the chassis manual provided in your
InfoCase for location and reset procedures for
this switch.
NOTE: It is possible to accidentally trigger the
fuel pump shut-off switch by abruptly
striking an object such as a curb or
parking block. If your vehicle exhibits
symptoms of running out of fuel
immediately after such an occurrence,
the fuel pump shut-off switch may need to
be reset.
See your chassis manual for additional
information.
DRIVING YOUR MOTOR HOME
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.
• Press the button at the end of the shift
lever to engage Tow/Haul Mode
when pulling a trailer or tow vehicle
Further Information
See the chassis manual in your InfoCase for
further operating instructions and cautions.

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.
Further Information
See your chassis manual for instructions on
activating, operating, and canceling hazard
warning flashers.
