Operator’s Manual
Introduction
This manual provides information needed to operate
and understand the chassis and its components.
More detailed information is contained in the Owner’s
Warranty Information for North America booklet, and
in the vehicle’s workshop and maintenance manuals.
Freightliner chassis are equipped with various chassis and cab components. Not all of the information
contained in this manual applies to every chassis. If
parts on your chassis differ from those shown, they
may have been installed by the body builder.
The safety or performance of your vehicle could be
adversely affected by the installation of nonstandard
components. Note the limitations and specifications
provided in the vehicle and chassis manuals, and
consult your selling dealer before making any alterations to the vehicle or chassis.
For your reference, keep this manual in the vehicle
at all times.
IMPORTANT: Descriptions and specifications in
this manual were in effect at the time of printing.
Freightliner Custom Chassis Corporation reserves the right to discontinue models and to
change specifications or design at any time
without notice and without incurring obligation.
Descriptions and specifications contained in this
publication provide no warranty, expressed or
implied, and are subject to revisions and editions without notice.
Environmental Concerns and
Recommendations
Whenever you see instructions in this manual to discard materials, you should first attempt to reclaim
and recycle them. To preserve our environment, follow appropriate environmental rules and regulations
when disposing of materials.
Event Data Recorder
This vehicle is equipped with one or more devices
that record specific vehicle data. The type and
amount of data recorded varies depending on how
the vehicle is equipped (such as the brand of engine,
if an air bag is installed, or if the vehicle features a
collision avoidance system, etc.).
This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder
(EDR). The main purpose of an EDR is to record
data in certain crash or near-crash situations, such
as air bag deployment or hitting a road obstacle, that
will assist in understanding how a vehicle’s systems
performed. The EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle dynamics and safety systems for approximately 60 seconds. This data can help provide
a better understanding of the circumstances in which
crashes and injuries occur. Data recorded includes
the following items:
•
how various systems in the vehicle were operating
•
engine system information
•
how far (if at all) the driver was depressing the
accelerator
•
if the driver was depressing the brake pedal
•
how fast the vehicle was traveling
NOTE: Data is not recorded by the EDR under
normal driving conditions. Personal data such
as name, gender, age, and crash location are
not recorded. However, other parties such as
law enforcement could combine the EDR data
with the type of personally identifying data routinely acquired during a crash investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment
is required, and access to the vehicle or the EDR is
needed. In addition to the vehicle manufacturer, other
parties that have the special equipment, such as law
enforcement, can read the information if they have
access to the vehicle or the EDR.
Emissions and Fuel Efficiency
Compliance
This vehicle must be regularly inspected and maintained as indicated in the Walk-In Van Chassis Main-
tenance Manual, and in the Pre- and Post-Trip Inspections and Maintenance chapter in this manual, in
order to continue satisfactory performance and ensure coverage of the vehicle under the manufacturer’s warranty. Many maintenance procedures ensure
that the vehicle and engine continue to comply with
applicable emissions standards. Maintenance procedures, using components engineered to comply with
greenhouse gas emissions and fuel efficiency regulations, may be performed by an authorized Daimler

Component Information Label
NOTE: Labels shown in this chapter are examples only. Actual specifications may vary from
vehicle to vehicle.
The component information label lists the manufacturer, month and year of manufacture, vehicle identification number (VIN), gross vehicle weight rating
(GVWR), front and rear gross axle weight ratings
(GAWR), and tire and wheel information. It also indicates if the vehicle has been certified as compliant
with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard
(FMVSS). See
Fig. 1.1.
The tire and rim portion of the component information
label certifies suitable tire and rim combinations that
can be installed on the vehicle for the given gross
axle weight rating. Tires and rims installed on the
vehicle at the time of manufacture may have a higher
load capacity than that certified by the tire and rim
label. If the tires and rims currently on the vehicle
have a lower load capacity than that shown on the
tire and rim label, then the tires and rims determine
the load limitations on each of the axles.
Incomplete vehicles intended for service in the U.S.
have an incomplete vehicle certification label attached by the final-stage manufacturer. This label will
be attached to the incomplete vehicle document included with the vehicle, and certifies that the vehicle
conforms to all applicable FMVSS regulations in effect on the date of completion.
Vehicle Identification Number
(VIN)
The chassis vehicle identification number is permanently attached to the chassis in the engine compartment (depending on vehicle options, usually on the
metal panel where the steering driveline enters the
engine compartment). See
Fig. 1.2. The last six dig-
its are the chassis serial number. The chassis number is stamped on the left frame rail, over the front
axle. A VIN label is also mounted by the body
builder. Mounting locations vary, to include the glove
box. See
Fig. 1.3.
NOTE: Always include the chassis serial number (last six digits of the VIN) when communicating with Daimler Trucks North America.
Emissions Labels
Aftertreatment System Indicators

have aftertreatment equipment, depending upon local
statutory emissions guidelines. See Table 1.1.
A reference label included with the driver’s documentation package contains important warning indicators
in the instrument cluster that pertain to the ATS. See
Fig. 1.4.
It is a violation of U.S. federal law to alter exhaust
plumbing, ATS, or other components in any way that
would bring the engine/vehicle out of compliance with
certification requirements [Ref: 42 U.S.C. S7522(a)
(3)]. It is the owner’s responsibility to maintain the
vehicle so that it conforms to EPA regulations.

High Coolant Temperature Warning
A red high coolant temperature (thermometer symbol) warning light illuminates when the engine is running and the engine coolant temperature exceeds the
maximum coolant temperature recommended by the
engine manufacturer.
Coolant Temperature Gauge
NOTICE
A sudden increase in coolant temperature may
indicate engine or cooling system failure. Bring
the vehicle to a safe stop and investigate the
cause to prevent further damage. Do not operate
the engine until the cause has been determined
and corrected.
The coolant temperature gauge is mission-critical. If
the coolant temperature rises above preset levels,

cause an accident resulting in property damage,
personal injury, or death.
Air pressure gauges register the pressure in the primary and secondary air systems. Normal pressure
with the engine running is 100 to 120 psi (689 to 827
kPa) in both systems.
Air pressure gauges are required on all vehicles with
air brakes. A low-air-pressure warning light and
buzzer, connected to both the primary and secondary
systems, activate when air pressure in either system
drops below a minimum pressure of 65 to 75 psi
(448 to 517 kPa).
When the engine is started, the warning light and
buzzer remain on until air pressure in both systems
exceeds minimum pressure.
Optional Instruments
Air Intake Restriction Gauge
An intake-air restriction indicator, mounted in the engine compartment, measures the vacuum on the engine side of the air cleaner at the air cleaner outlet.
See
Fig. 2.20.
Air intake restriction vacuum is measured in inches
of water (inH
2
O). For vehicles equipped with a
graduated indicator or a restriction gauge on the
dash, check the gauge with the engine off. If restriction reaches 25 inH
2
O, replace the air cleaner element. Reset the indicator by pressing the button on
the bottom.
NOTE: Rain or snow can wet the filter and
cause a higher than normal reading temporarily.
