Foreword
SECTION 1 — FOREWORD
Preface
Your vehicle has been engineered and manufactured so that it
can provide economical and trouble-free service. However, it is
the owner’s responsibility to see that the vehicle receives proper
care and maintenance.
Making modifications to various parts, components, and
systems of your vehicle, such as brake, suspension, and
steering systems, can adversely affect the quality and reliability
of your vehicle. Such modifications must be avoided.
Cautions and Warnings
Throughout this manual, you will find Cautions and Warnings:

consequences, and what to do to prevent
them, not only to prevent damage to your vehicle
or property, but to help prevent situations and
occurrences, which could result in personal
injury or death.
CAUTION
Cautions will advise you of the proper care to
be taken to prevent damage to your vehicle or
property.
Study this manual carefully. Do not operate your vehicle until you

Foreword
Contact Closest Navistar, Inc. Regional Sales Office.
Addresses of Regional Sales Offices are found in the front
of this manual. Should you desire to contact any of these
offices, it is important to include the following information in your
communication:
• Name under which new vehicle was purchased, address,
and telephone number of purchaser
• Vehicle model, year, vehicle identification number,
component code, and serial number
• Vehicle delivery date and present mileage
• Location where purchased
• Details of the problem
Component Code Numbers
Code numbers are the basis for identifying the components used
on International trucks. They are used by sales personnel to
order the truck, by manufacturing to build that truck, and by parts
personnel to service the truck. Many items in this manual are
identified by codes.
Code numbers are a combination of numbers and/or letters.
These codes are listed on the Line Set Ticket, which is
sometimes known as the vehicle specification card or code
sheet.
Line Set Ticket
Each vehicle is provided with a Line Set Ticket (code sheet),
which lists identification code numbers of component units used
to build the vehicle.
One copy of the Line Set Ticket is included in the literature
provided with the vehicle. When replacement parts are
required, take this copy with you to positively identify vehicle
components to be sure of getting the correct parts.
Be Sure To Return Line Set Ticket To Vehicle After Obtaining
Parts.
Vehicle Storage Instructions
When a vehicle is not used for an extended period of time,
precautions must be taken to prevent deterioration of vehicle
components. Vehicles that are out of service for extended
periods of time can experience corrosion and other undesirable
effects. Drive vehicle monthly to exercise the brakes, driveline
and steering. Run the vehicle long enough for the engine to
reach operating temperature.
NOTE: Losses occurring to a unit while it is in storage will not be
considered for warranty reimbursement.
Storage Duration - One Month or Less
1. Wash vehicles as necessary. Always wash vehicles that
have been exposed to road salt.
23878859R2
Foreword
NOTE: Washing Instructions - Wash the vehicle with warm water
and mild soap, then wipe wet surfaces with a chamois or soft
cloth. DO NOT use hot water or strong soaps or detergents. DO
NOT wash the vehicle in direct sun, or when the sheet metal is
hot to the touch. This will streak the finish. DO NOT wipe dirt off
dry surfaces, as this will scratch the finish.
NOTE: When vehicles are stored outside, particularly in coastal
areas (salt water and high humidity atmosphere) or other
areas of corrosive environment, paint and bright metal may
require frequent washing and waxing to prevent deterioration.
Determining washing frequency is the customers responsibility.
NOTE: For vehicles exposed to ultraviolet rays of the sun, apply
a coating of Bon-Ami® soap, or similar product, to the inside
surfaces of the windshield and windows, to shade the interior
and prevent fading of the interior trim.
2. Inspectpaintedsurfaces; touchup allexposedprimed orraw
metal areas to prevent rust.
3. a thick coat of wax to prevent discoloration from the
elements; wax all chrome and stainless steel metal parts.
4. Check the radiator coolant for proper level and adequate
freeze protection [-20°F (-29°C) is standard for mediumduty
models and bus chassis, -40°F (-40°C) is standard for heavy
duty models].
5. Cover open ends of vertical exhaust stack(s).
6. Drain air brake reservoirs and close the drain cocks.
7. Lubricate all exposed transmission, auxiliary transmission
and PTO shift rails.
8. Check state of charge eye in batteries and re-charge if open
circuitvoltageis below12.6volts. Disconnectbattery ground
cables to prevent accidental starting, or parasitic electrical
loads from discharging the battery.
Storage Duration - Over One Month
Units in storage longer than one monthshould be driven until the
engine reaches operating temperature:
1. Insure all tires are inflated properly, remove vertical exhaust
stack covers and reconnect batteries.
2. Check all vehicle fluid levels and fill as required.
3. Start andrun thevehicleatfastidle, untilitreachesoperating
temperature. To remove surface charge from the battery,
built up from previous start-ups and short idle periods,
operate the heater and/or air conditioner, headlights and
other accessories for several minutes.
4. Turn off heater and/or air conditioner and any other
accessories; shut off the headlights. Park the vehicle and
shut off the engine.
5. Perform the procedure for Storage Duration - One Month
or Less, if returning the vehicle to storage.
NOTE: After every 30 additional days of storage, perform Items
1 through 5.
3878859R2 3
Foreword
Storage Facilities
A. Whenever possible, store vehicles indoors, protected
from sunlight, in a dry, well ventilated area. If indoor
storage is not available, select storage lots to eliminate
conditions that cause deterioration.
B. Park away from transformers and/or electrical motors,
because when the protective wax in tire compound
cracks, ozone in the air attacks the exposed areas.
C. Park away from trees, high weeds and/or grass to
prevent damage from tree or weed sap, and to minimize
bird and insect stains.
D. Park away from railroad tracks, paint shops, smoky
industrial areas, and locations of possible road splash
contact.

Add Layers of Protection
Four layers of protection are recommended for your vehicle - the
more layers of protection on your vehicle, the more difficult it is
to steal.
Layer 1: Common Sense
• Lock your doors.
• Remove your keys from the ignition.
• Close your windows completely.
• Park in well-lit areas.
• Drop a business card with your name onit between theglass
and doorframe. This can aid in identifying the truck when it’s
recovered.
• Keep a copy of the lineset ticket in a location other than your
truck for reporting purposes and a copy of the VIN in your
wallet.
• Photograph the interior and exterior of your truck from
various angles and keep these photographs in a safe
nontruck location or send them to your insurance agent.
• Report a theft as soon as it’s discovered to the local police
and to your insurance company.
•Postadriver has no cash sign on your door to discourage a
robbery.

Foreword
• Permanently mount your CB radio or remove itwhen you will
be away from your truck.
• Do not discuss where your vehicle is located when you are
not on the road.
• Do not share information about your specific destination or
the load you are hauling.
• Be conscious of other vehicles that may be following you
over long distances - call the police.
• Be suspicious of motorists that are signaling you to stop or
pull over. Call the police, report the incident, and let the
police respond.
Layer 2: Visible or Audible Device
• Audible alarm system
• Steering wheel locks
• Steering column collars
• Theft deterrent decals
• Wheel locks
• Window etching
• Mechanical or electronic steering locks that restrict the
steering shaft U-joint are easy to use and provide a very
high level of affordable theft protection.
Layer 3: Vehicle Immobilizer
A. Fuse cutoffs
B. Kill switches
C. Starter, ignition, and fuel disablers
D. Fuel cutoff switch
Layer 4: Tracking System
The final layer is a tracking system that emits a signal to the
police or a monitoring service when the vehicle is reported
stolen. If your vehicle has a tracking system and is stolen, it can
oftentimes be recovered faster and with less damage.
