    I have been issued a 2014 Volvo VNL670 from my company. Supposedly this model has the optimized idle feature from cummins, but no matter what I've tried, I can't get the system to turn on. The control panel in the sleeper always says OFF and I can't find a way to switch it on. If you have this system in this truck, please let me know how to turn it on/operate it.

    Never had it but I believe the Cummins system is called ICON, while Detroit has Opti-idle.

    Good luck solving the problem.

    Do you have the manuals to the truck?

    Volvo incorporates the ICON controls into the display control panel in the sleeper. No idea how it works as our trucks don't have it.
