Clean and Inspect for Reuse
If there is the possibility that contaminated DEF has gone
through the DEF dosing system, check the DEF filter prior to
discarding the filter.
1.
Check the DEF for evidence of contaminated DEF. Use
visual and aroma characteristics of the filter to determine

DEF tank pick up screen.
•
The aftertreatment DEF dosing unit inlet connector.
