,
without holding down the brake pedal. If the slider is moved
to
”
RESUME
”
, the engine will run at a pre-programmed fast
idle speed and if the slider is moved to
”
OFF
”
, the engine will
drop to the lowest idling speed. These changes of engine
speed are not stored in the control unit. Even with only small
changes in idling speed, the clutch pedal should be re-
leased (handbrake applied and neutral selected on buses
with automatic transmission).

The stored speed will be cleared when the engine is
stopped. Consequently, a previously set speed can not be
restored once the engine has been turned off.
Setting basic idling speed
The following description applies to buses with Electronic
Diesel Control only).
If the engine is warm (above 45°C), the bus is stationary and
the clutch pedal is released (handbrake applied and neu-
tral selected on buses with automatic transmission), the
idling speed can be set with the switches on the direction
indicator stalk.
–
Keep the brake pedal depressed. Move the slider to
”RESUME” and hold it there for at least 4 seconds.
–
Keep the brake pedal depressed and release the slider
to neutral position. The lowest idling speed (530 rpm)
will then be obtained.
–
The engine speed can be changed by pressing ”SET+”
or ”SET–” repeatedly. Each press will increase/de-
crease the idling speed by about 10 rpm (within the ad-
justable interval). When the desired speed has been
reached, reactivate ”RESUME” for at least 4 seconds
and then release it to neutral position.
–
Release the brake pedal. The new idling speed will then
be stored. The stored speed will be applied as the idling
speed until a new one is stored.
