REPLACING DEF
1.
DRAINING DEF
(1)
Turn the starter key to “ON”, remove the drain plug, and discharge
DEF from the DEF tank.
! CAUTION
•
If the starter key is turned to “LOCK” with nothing left in the
tank, the engine cannot be restarted. Before starting work, be
sure to turn the starter key to “ON.”
•
Dispose the DEF in accordance with the specified proce-
dures (industrial waste disposal) or by other environment-
friendly methods.
2.
ADDING DEF
(1)
Mount the drain plug to the DEF tank.
(2)
Remove the filler cap and add DEF while checking the water level
gauge until it reaches the specified amount.
! CAUTION
•
Do not add any other material than DEF to the tank.
•
When adding DEF to the DEF tank, do not add above the F
line of the water level gauge on the left side of the tank
It overflows from the breather hose and is crystallized at the
tank bottom.
•
DEF expands when frozen. The DEF tank filled above the full
level may burst when frozen.
•
Promptly wipe off DEF with a waste if it overflowed from the
DEF tank or adhered to the tank or peripheral parts when
adding. Wipe it off while it is in liquid form since it will crys-
tallize and whiten when left unattended and become difficult
to be removed. Use a cloth soaked in warm water to wipe off
crystallized urea.
•
Avoid entry of dust and foreign matter into the DEF tank
when adding DEF. Entry of dust and foreign matter may
cause DEF pump malfunction and pipe and DEF injector
clogging.
•
When it is difficult to tighten the filler cap due to adhesion of
DEF crystals on the filler cap or inlet of the DEF tank, do not
forcedly tighten the cap but remove the crystals by a waste
first and then tighten the cap. Avoid entry of waste lint into
the DEF tank when removing crystals.
•
Dispose the DEF in accordance with the specified proce-
dures (industrial waste disposal) or by other environment-
friendly methods.
•
DEF may overflow before reaching the full level if it is added
to the vehicle in inclined condition.
