272 OPERATION
Note: Read the Eaton VORAD Collision Warning System Driver Reference Manual
before taking a vehicle equipped with VORAD out on the road.
CAUTION
On vehicles equipped with Eaton
VORAD SmartCruise, cruise control is
disengaged in the event the SmartCruise
system fails to operate. You must stop
the truck, turn the ignition off and on,
and activate the control twice in order
for the cruise control to operate.
Acceleration
Momentary acceleration (such as for passing another vehicle) does not interrupt cruise
control operation. After passing, release accelerator and let the vehicle slow to cruise
control speed. The previously set speed will then be maintained without having to set
the switch to RESUME.
Volvo Engine Brake (I-VEB)
The Volvo Engine Brake (I-VEB) is standard on the Volvo 16F engine and optional on
the 13F engine. It has a higher braking effect than the variable geometry turbo brake.
When the engine brake is in the A position and cruise control is engaged, the engine
brake automatically engages if vehicle speed exceeds the set cruise control speed.
The I-VEB will engage with infinite control (within the limits of the engine brake)
to maintain that speed.
