PREMIUM INSTRUMENT CLUSTER
DESCRIPTIONS — DIESEL
1. Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) Gauge
○
The DEF Gauge displays the actual level of Die-
sel 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 dis-
played. More information is available in the
instrument cluster display section under the
heading of DEF Warning Messages.
NOTE:
○
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 sys-
tem, 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 pos-
sibly 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.

3. Fuel Gauge

The pointer shows the level of fuel in the fuel
tank when the Keyless Push Button Ignition is in
the ON/RUN position.

INSTRUMENT CLUSTER DISPLAY
Your vehicle is equipped with an instrument cluster dis-
play, which offers useful information to the driver. With
the ignition in the OFF mode, opening/closing of a door
will activate the display for viewing, and display the total
miles, or kilometers, in the odometer. Your instrument
cluster display is designed to display important informa-
tion about your vehicle’s systems and features. Using a
driver interactive display located on the instrument
panel, your instrument cluster display can show you
how systems are working and give you warnings when
they are not. The steering wheel mounted controls allow
you to scroll through the main menus and submenus.
You can access the specific information you want and
make selections and adjustments.
