starting the engine

Start Procedure

For cold weather starting, refer to the VN/VHD/VAH operator’s manual.

The following starting and operating procedures should be followed for

all engines. For more information about the design and function of a non-

VOLVO engine, refer to the operator’s manual from the engine manufacturer.

Before starting the engine, see “Instruments and Controls” section (pages

12–23) for detailed information on how the gauges and tell-tales work.

Never operate the starter without first placing the transmission in

neutral or depressing the clutch pedal. Failure to so could result in the

unintentional movement of the vehicle resulting in property damage,

personal injury or death.

DANGER

STARTING THE ENGINE

DO NOT use ether or other combustible starting aids

in any VOLVO engine. Doing so could cause a fire or

explosion resulting in severe property damage, serious

personal injury or death.

DANGER

starting the engine

1. Before starting the engine, perform the engine pre-trip inspection and daily

maintenance checks. For more information on the pre-trip inspection, refer

to the VN/VHD/VAH operator’s manual.

2. Make sure the parking brakes are engaged.

3. Place the transmission in neutral or depress the clutch pedal.

NOTE: Some starters are equipped with starter protection. If the engine is

running and the starter temperature is too high, or the transmission

is not in neutral, or the clutch pedal is not depressed, starter

engagement is inhibited. When the key is turned to the start position,

there is a one-second delay before the starter is engaged.

NOTE: The starter will not operate if the PTO is engaged.

4. Turn on the ignition with the switch key. Some tell-tales will come on in a

routine check that shows the bulbs and systems are OK. If any of the tell-

tales remain on, that function of the vehicle may not be operable. DO NOT

operate the vehicle until the problem is repaired. For an explanation of the

tell-tales, refer to the VN/VHD/VAH operator’s manual.

5. Turn the key to the start position. Release key as soon as the engine has

started. For the VOLVO engine, the preheater can be engaged to assist

starting in cold temperatures.

DO NOT crank the engine for more than 30 seconds at a time. Wait

two minutes after each try to allow the starter to cool. Failure to follow

these instructions could cause starter damage.

CAUTION

STARTING THE ENGINE

If at start-up, or any time thereafter,

the oil pressure gauge indicates

a drop in oil pressure, shut the

engine down immediately. Failure

to stop the engine may cause

major engine damage.

CAUTION

6. When the engine has started, it takes a while to send lubricating oil to

all bearings and shafts and between pistons and liners. Wait for the oil

pressure gauge to settle at a normal level, then gradually increase engine

speed. Continue to increase speed slowly as the engine warms up. Check

all gauges during warm-up.

7. During warm-up, apply load gradually until the oil temperature reaches

60°C (140°F). To move a loaded vehicle, the minimum coolant temperature

must be approximately 50°C (120°F).

starting the engine

STARTING THE ENGINE

Engine Break-In

Engines are tested on dynamometers before being shipped from the

manufacturer. In most applications, the engine can be put to work immediately,

but the operator should be extra observant of the operating conditions shown

on the gauges during the initial 100 hours or 5,000 Km (3,000 miles).

A more frequent check of the engine compartment for fluid leaks, fluid levels

and fastener tightness is also recommended during the break-in period.

cab doors, door locks and keys

Keyless Remote Entry

1. Press the remote button once to

unlock driver side. Press twice to

unlock both doors.

2. Press the remote button once to

lock doors.

Note: The vehicle is delivered with two

identical keys. Additional keys

may be ordered through your

authorized VOLVO Truck dealer.

To lessen the chance of being thrown from the vehicle in the event

of an accident, always lock the doors and wear the safety belt while

driving. Failure to do so can cause serious personal injury or death in

the event of an accident.

DANGER
