Engine Compression Brake Level<br />

Switch Operation<br />

There are 2 switches that control your<br />

vehicle’s engine compression brake.<br />

One switch turns the system on/off and<br />

the second switch controls the braking<br />

level. These switches are located on<br />

the dash switch panel.<br />

For the 3-position engine compression<br />

brake level switch, there will be 100%<br />

engine braking when the switch is in<br />

the up (HIGH) position. In the middle<br />

(MEDIUM) position, there will be 66%<br />

engine braking. In the down (LOW)<br />

position there will be 33% engine<br />

braking.<br />

With the compression brake switch<br />

ON, the compression brake will be<br />

engaged when the service brake is<br />

applied.<br />

If the cruise control is operated in<br />

conjunction with the compression<br />

brake, the compression brake will<br />

3-10<br />

engage to maintain the cruise set<br />

speed.<br />
