Automotive Dash; Gear Selector; Dash Board Controls; Symbols Of Switches - Thor Motor Coach tuscany 2013 Owner's Manual

Driving a motorhome is similar to driving a car. You have an ignition switch, gearshift
controls, turn signals, and dash components. As you sit in the driver's seat the center
of the cluster includes tachometer, speedometer, fuel gauge, oil gauge, temperature
gauge, and amp meter. Switches may have symbols to describe their function. Switch
locations may be different from model to model.
The dash radio can be played without turning the ignition key "on" provided that the
battery disconnect is in the "use" position. For units with the home theater, the dash
radio can only be played if the ignition is in the "accessory" or "run" position. The cruise
controls are on the turn signal lever. You can set, resume, and disengage the cruise
control from this location.
The gear selector is located on the right side of the steering wheel. Some models have
an overdrive switch on the end. Press the button to engage/disengage to overdrive
function. Pull the lever toward you to place into the desired gear. Be sure the service
brake is applied when making this selection. See the Chassis Owner's Manual for more
information.
Below are descriptions of the various controls on your dashboard. Please keep in mind
that these controls may be located in different positions depending on the model of your
particular vehicle.
SUNVISORS: These switches control the sunvisors. Each shade works separately, with
each assigned switch. Lower the sunshade to desired level.
HEATED MIRRORS: Use this switch to defrost your mirrors.
ICC: Courtesy Flasher (DOT-Lights): Flash after a semi-truck passes you or as a thank-
you flasher when you are passing.
WIPERS: This switch is for HIGH, LOW or intermittent operation.
WASHER: This switch located on to the wiper switch provides washer fluid to the
windshield. Check the washer fluid level prior to trips. Some washer fluid can freeze, so
be aware of the temperature conditions where you will be traveling in order to add the
proper type of fluid to your washer reservoir.
REMOTE MIRRORS: This switch allows you to set the viewing angle of your mirrors
from the convenience of the driver's seat. To adjust the driver's side mirror, move the
lever to the left. For the passenger's side, move the lever to the right and adjust as
needed.
