SELECTIVE CATALYTIC REDUCTION (SCR) SYSTEM (DIESEL
ENGINE ONLY)
Your vehicle is equipped with a selective catalytic reduction (SCR)
system to help reduce emission levels of oxides of nitrogen from the
exhaust of the diesel engine. The system automatically injects diesel
exhaust fluid (DEF) into the exhaust system to enable proper SCR
function.
Importance of Maintaining the DEF Level
In order for the SCR system to operate properly, the DEF level must be
maintained. Generally, the DEF tank should be filled before the DEF
gauge in the instrument cluster reaches the first low level warning
(see
Warning messages and vehicle operations).
The engine control unit monitors the amount of fluid available in the
DEF tank. Failure to maintain an adequate amount of DEF in the system
generates warning messages that appear in the information display and,
unless the DEF tank is refilled, leads to a forced reduction of engine
operations.
Warning Messages and Vehicle Operations
The instrument cluster contains a DEF gauge and indicator lights to alert
you to any low DEF level conditions. The indicator lights illuminate if the
DEF gauge level drops below 0.5 gallons (1.9 liters) in the 5 gallon
(19.0 liters) DEF tank or 1 gallon (3.8 liters) in the 9 gallon (34.0 liters)
DEF tank.
Upon filling the DEF tank after a low level warning, normal operation
resumes when the vehicle is restarted.
