Running-in guideline
Running in the chassis and drive train
Note:
The way in which the chassis and drive
train of the new bus are treated during
the first 3,000 miles (5,000 km) is crit-
ical to the bus' future performance and
service life.
Note:
The load to which the bus is subjected
during this period should be increased
only gradually. The maintenance and lub-
rication tasks specified in the Mainten-
ance Record should be carried out con-
scientiously.
Caution:
Do not place the engine under full load
during the running-in period. Up to
1,200 miles (2,000 km): run in with
care. Drive at no higher than 3/4 of the
maximum rpm in each gear. After 1,200
miles (2,000 km): slowly increase to the
economic rpm in each gear. During the
running-in period, do not drive the bus for
long distances at the same road speed =
same rpm. Varying engine speeds and
therefore varying loads demanded of the
entire drive train are favourable to the
running-in of the bus.
Starting the engine
The parking brake must be applied.
Transmission in neutral.
Note:
At outside temperatures of below -20 °C,
preheat the engine with the water heater
(refer to “Heating/ventilation/air-condi-
tioning control panel”).
Note:
The bus is equipped with an immobiliser
as standard. The engine cannot be star-
ted without one of the authorised keys.
Note:
To obtain electronic start authorisation in
buses equipped with an alcohol interlock,
the operating instructions supplied by the
device manufacturer and the information
shown on its display screen should be
observed. In the driver's area there is
an emergency switch with tamper-evid-
ent seal. This switch is intended to be
pressed in an emergency. 22 TopClass
