7 What is DT12 Intelligent Powertrain Management? The purpose of Intelligent Powertrain Management (IPM) is to use the momentum of the vehicle most efficiently by eliminating unnecessary fueling, engine braking and shifting while minimizing the impact on travel time. IPM is feature of cruise control that uses terrain maps and GPS to know the route ahead up to 1+ miles (2 KM) IPM uses shifts, acceleration, engine braking and coast versus ecoast optimization to efficiently operate the powertrain. Prediction of route including GPS electronic maps Horizon Data Daimler Trucks North America 7

11 DT12 Clutch The DT12 uses a ceramic-metallic faced clutch, in both single or dual plate configurations. With a Concentric Pneumatic Clutch Actuator (CPCA), precise computer control allows for long-lasting operation and superior shifting and traction control. Clutch warranty is 3 years or 300,000 miles Detroit recommends replacing the clutch at 750,000 miles Detroit Single Plate Clutch DD13, DD15 below 105k GCW Detroit Dual Plate Clutch DD15 above 105k GCW, all DD16 Diameter (430mm) Weight 113 lbs. (51 kg) Diameter (400mm) Additional Weight 70 lbs. (32kg) Daimler Trucks North America 11

12 Shift Boost Mode The DT12 shifts noticeably smoother than other automated transmissions. In addition to pneumatic shift and clutch actuators, the engine and transmission work together to ensure the smoothest shifts possible. The engine will: Brake 3 cylinders and fire 3 cylinders, to maintain turbo boost and fuel pressure Speeds up time-to-target during up-shifts under load FASTER SHIFTING Preserves boost energy allowing quicker torque ramp-up QUICKER TORQUE BUILD-UP Pre-loading of driveline allows smoother shifts under full load SMOOTH ENGAGEMENT Daimler Trucks North America 12

13 Creep Mode The Creep Mode of the transmission simulates a torque converter in an automatic transmission to improve low speed maneuverability for parking, docking, heavy traffic, or other low speed situations. Although the clutch slips to transfer limited torque, the TCM constantly monitors load and temperature. 10 Creep Mode! A econ Aborted mi 10 CRITICAL! Clutch! A econ Overloaded mi The DT12 will not allow the clutch to be damaged by Creep Mode, and will abort if damage is imminent. Daimler Trucks North America 13

Hill Start Aid (HSA) When transitioning from a standstill to acceleration on a grade of 3% or more, Hill Start Aid acts as a brake assist feature to prevent rollback for up to 3 seconds.

15 Hill Start Aid (HSA) When transitioning from a standstill to acceleration on a grade of 3% or more, Hill Start Aid acts as a brake assist feature to prevent rollback for up to 3 seconds. Smooth and Safe Transition from Brake to Throttle The ABS module holds and modulates brake pressure after the driver has released their foot from the brake pedal. Creep-Mode works in combination with Hill Start Aid to achieve proper: Acceleration / Torque Brake modulation transition to clutch control and slowly moving the vehicle forward. HSA is enabled (hold brake pressure) with the following conditions: Brake pressure exists Vehicle is not moving No ABS system faults are active HSA switch is not disabled Daimler Trucks North America 15

16 Auto Neutral The TCM will automatically shift the transmission into neutral in certain conditions: While the shifter is in drive or reverse position If the transmission was mistakenly left in gear When the ignition switch is turned off When the operator has applied the parking brake while the stalk is in drive or reverse, the dash will flash N for neutral after 5 seconds and a quick beep will be sounded. After an additional 5 seconds without driver interaction, an additional beep will be sounded and the DT12 will shift into neutral. Daimler Trucks North America 16
