1. Tachometer
Indicates the engine speed in revolutions per
minute (RPM x 1000).
2. Instrument Cluster Display
When the appropriate conditions exist, this display
shows the instrument cluster display messages
The display always shows one of the main menu
item after ignition is placed on.
3. Speedometer
Indicates vehicle speed.
4. Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) Gauge
The DEF Gauge displays the actual level of Diesel
Exhaust Fluid in the DEF tank. DEF is required to
maintain normal vehicle operation and emissions
compliance. If something is wrong with the gauge,
a DEF Warning Message or Malfunction Indicator
Light (MIL) will be displayed. More information is
available in the instrument cluster display section
under the heading of DEF Warning Messages.
NOTE:
• The DEF tank on these vehicles is designed with
a large amount of full reserve. So the level
sensor will indicate a full reading even before
the tank is completely full. To put it another
way, there’s additional storage capacity in the
tank above the Full mark that’s not represented
in the gauge. You may not see any movement in
the reading – even after driving up to 200 miles
(322 kilometers) in some cases.
• The gauge may take up to five seconds to
update after adding a gallon or more of DEF to
the DEF tank. If you have a fault related to the
DEF system, the gauge may not update to the
new level. See an authorized dealer for service.
• The DEF gauge may also not immediately
update after a refill if the temperature of the
DEF fluid is below 39°F (4°C). The DEF tank
heater will warm up the DEF fluid and allow the
gauge to update after a period of run time.
Under very cold conditions, it is possible that
the gauge may not reflect the new fill level for
several drives.
5. Fuel Gauge
The pointer shows the level of fuel in the fuel tank
when the ignition switch is in the ON/RUN posi
-
tion.
The fuel pump symbol points to the
side of the vehicle where the fuel filler
door is located.
