Default not a manly thing

We ordered NPP. There is some uncertainty about how it functions. So I used a prior supplied link to the online Owner's Manual. And read it. I know about real men reading the book, but it was a quest for knowledge. And knowledge is power.

I'm well passed AARP status, even Medicare and thanks for the great healthcare, so perhaps that is an explanation. But I could find no reference to NPP in the Owner's Manual .pdf.

Very little information on NPP (or variable mode exhaust) in the owners manual. Small reference on page 9-41 and 12-3.

This thread created my question and my quest to the Owner's Manual. You weren't kidding about 'not much' information. The two vague mini-mentions belie the $1200 the sticker price for this RPO.

I feel better now that I recognize what I was looking for isn't there.

Thanks.
