SaFETY MODE

The SpeedBrake has three operating

modes; MANUAL, AUTO and OFF. In

the MANUAL mode, the SpeedBrake

will activate and will downshift

the transmission and adjust the

turbocharger vanes, resulting in a

braking effect that slows your vehicle

to 15 mph. In AUTO mode, the

SpeedBrake varies the position of the

turbocharger vanes and selects an

appropriate gear in order to maintain a

pre-selected target speed. choosing the

OFF mode allows the vehicle to behave

as if the SpeedBrake is not present.
To change between modes, press the

‘Mode’ button on the lower portion of

the screen. See Figure 13.

MaNUaL Mode

While in the MANUAL mode, there are

three strength selections available: HIGH,

MED (medium) and LOW. Press the ‘Up’

arrow to increase the brake strength

or the ‘Down’ arrow to decrease

the strength on the right side of the

screen. Brake strength will be displayed

in-between the Up and Down arrows.
HIGH strength achieves the highest

level of braking force by aggressively

downshifting the transmission and

closing the turbocharger vanes.

This setting is recommended for

heavily loaded vehicles or whenever

aggressive braking is desired.
MEDIUM (MED) strength achieves

a moderate level of braking force

by slightly delaying transmission

downshifts. This setting is

recommended for moderately loaded

vehicles.
LOW strength setting achieves a

lower level of braking force and is

recommended for lightly loaded or

unloaded vehicles. The LOW setting

may also be used for daily driving.
CaUTION: Using the HIGH setting

with a lightly loaded vehicle

will result in VERY aggressive

braking. Become familiar with the

characteristics of the Strength

Settings before encountering

slippery road conditions,

including rain, snow and icy.
