9-24 Driving and Operating
With long-term use of
conventional diesel fuel, gum
and varnish may be deposited
within the tank and fuel system.
These deposits, while not
problematic with the use of
conventional diesel fuel, may
become loosened with a sudden
switch to biodiesel blends and
cause fuel filter plugging.
This vehicle is equipped with a
fuel filter restriction monitoring
system that will alert you if the
fuel filter requires service, but it
will not prevent damage caused
by poor quality biodiesel.
. Use of biodiesel blends will
degrade the performance of your
vehicle
’ s water separator.
Biodiesel reduces the
effectiveness of the vehicle
’ s
water separator, and in the event
of water contamination of the
fuel, increases the risk of
damage to the fuel system.
Refueling
Diesel fuel can foam when you fill
the tank. This can cause the
automatic pump nozzle to shut off,
even though the tank is not full.
If this happens, wait for the foaming
to stop, and then try filling the tank
more slowly. See
Filling the Tank on
page 9 ‑ 36 .

WARNING
Heat coming from the engine can
cause the fuel to expand and
force the fuel out of the tank.
If something ignites the fuel, a fire
could start and people could be
burned. To help avoid this, try
filling the tank more slowly and fill
the fuel tank only until the
automatic nozzle shuts off. Do not
try to top it off.
Accidental Refueling with
Gasoline
Notice: If any amount of gasoline
is added to the fuel tank, do not
start the engine until the fuel tank
can be drained and refilled with
Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel fuel. Your
dealer can perform this
procedure. If this procedure is
not performed, the vehicle will
run very rough and have reduced
power. Severe engine damage will
occur and would not be covered
by the vehicle warranty.
What Fuel to Use in
Canada and Mexico
The emission control system
requires the use of diesel fuel with
ultra low sulfur content (15 ppm or
0.0015% by weight, maximum).
What Fuel to Use in Canada
Notice: Use of diesel fuel other
than Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel
(15 ppm sulfur maximum) will
cause permanent damage to the
