DIESEL ENGINE STARTING PROCEDURES
Engine Block Heater
• For ambient temperatures below 0°F (-18°C), engine block heater usage is
recommended.
• For ambient temperatures below –20°F (-29°C), engine block heater usage is required.
• The engine block heater cord is routed under the hood to the right side and can be
located just behind the grille near the headlamp.
• Connect the heater cord to a ground-fault interrupter protected 110–115 volt AC
electrical outlet with a grounded, three-wire extension cord.
NOTE: The block heater will require 110 volts AC and 6.5 amps to activate the heater
element.
• The block heater must be plugged in at least one hour to have an adequate warming
effect on the coolant.
WARNING!
Remember to disconnect the cord before driving. Damage to the 110–115 volt electrical
cord could cause electrocution.
Water In Fuel Message
• If a Water In Fuel message or indicator appears in the cluster and a chime
sounds five times, the fuel/water separator will need to be drained immediately to
prevent engine damage.
• Refer to Maintaining Your Vehicle in this guide for draining instructions or see your
dealer.
Cold Start Procedure
• Turn the ignition switch to the ON position. If the Wait To Start light appears in
the cluster, wait for the light to turn off before starting.
• In extremely cold conditions, when the engine temperature may be below 0°F (-18°C),
cycle the manifold heaters twice with a five-second pause between cycles.
• Refer to the Owner's Manual Diesel Supplement on the DVD for further details.
