Answer: 

Drivers must take at least one 24-hour off-duty or sleeper berth period within 14 days of starting a new cycle.

Example: If you start a new cycle on August 1st, you must take at least one off-duty break of 24 hours or more by August 14th. This break can be spent resting in the sleeper berth or off duty, but it must be completed within those 14-days to comply with the regulations.
