+## Additional environment variables
+To tweak CCM based on needs, one can overwrite the default values set for caches and requests by setting appropriate environment variables when applying the manifest or helm chart.
+
+Environment Variable | Default | Description
+---|---|---
+`LINODE_INSTANCE_CACHE_TTL` | `15` | Default timeout of instance cache in seconds
+`LINODE_ROUTES_CACHE_TTL_SECONDS` | `60` | Default timeout of route cache in seconds
+`LINODE_REQUEST_TIMEOUT_SECONDS` | `120` | Default timeout in seconds for http requests to linode API

 ## Generating a Manifest for Deployment
 Use the script located at `./deploy/generate-manifest.sh` to generate a self-contained deployment manifest for the Linode CCM. Two arguments are required.
