CONTROLS AND DISPLAY<br />

Air Suspension Deflate Switch (Dump Valve)<br />

AIR SUSPENSION<br />

If your vehicle has fog lights, turn them ON or OFF with<br />

the control panel switch with the symbol shown above.<br />

NOTE: Across the U.S.A. and Canada, State/Provincial<br />

requirements vary as to when high beams<br />

and fog lights can and cannot be used together.<br />

Some states allow only four lights to be used<br />

together, while some allow more. How your lights<br />

are arranged will affect whether you can operate<br />

headlights and fog lights concurrently—always<br />

comply with the state or provincial requirements<br />

where you are driving.<br />

Your <strong>Peterbilt</strong> vehicle may have an air suspension deflation<br />

switch which allows the air in the suspension to be<br />

exhausted from a switch on the dash. The purpose of this<br />

feature is to allow you to lower your tractor to get under a<br />

trailer. You may notice a guard over the switch. This prevents<br />

you from accidentally deflating the suspension.<br />

WARNING! Operating the Air Suspension<br />

Deflate Switch (Dump Valve) while driving can<br />

lead to an accident causing death or personal<br />

injury. Sudden deflation while your vehicle is<br />

moving can affect handling and control. Use<br />

this switch only when your vehicle is not moving.<br />
