How do you turn up the speed on a freightliner cascadia?

To increase the speed on a Freightliner Cascadia semi-truck, here's a general procedure:

1. Check Cruise Control:

Ensure the cruise control is turned on. If it is not, activate it by pressing the "Cruise" button on the steering wheel or dashboard.

2. Set Desired Speed:

Once the cruise control is on, press and release the "Set (+)" or "Accelerate (+)" button on the steering wheel. Each press of this button increases the set speed by approximately 1 mph.

3. Adjust Speed:

Continue pressing the "Set (+)" button until you reach the desired speed. You can also adjust the speed by using the +/- buttons or roller switch that controls the cruise control settings.

4. Engage and Hold:

Once you have set the desired speed, press and hold the "Set (+)" button for about 3 seconds until you hear a chime. This will engage and lock in the set speed.

5. Resume:

If you need to temporarily disengage the cruise control and regain full control of the accelerator pedal, press the "Resume" button on the steering wheel or dashboard. The truck will maintain the set speed until you adjust it or press the cruise control buttons again.

Note: The specific procedures may vary slightly based on the exact model of Freightliner Cascadia you are driving, so it's always best to refer to the user manual or consult with your dealer if you need assistance.
