CAUTION!
• To avoid DEF spillage, and possible damage to the DEF tank from overfilling, do
not “top off” the DEF tank after filling.
• DO NOT OVERFILL. DEF will freeze below 12ºF (-11ºC). The DEF system is
designed to work in temperatures below the DEF freezing point, however, if the
tank is overfilled and freezes, the system could be damaged.
• When DEF is spilled, clean the area immediately with water and use an
absorbent material to soak up the spills on the ground.
• Do not attempt to start your engine if DEF is accidentally added to the diesel fuel
tank as it can result in severe damage to your engine, including but not limited
to failure of the fuel pump and injectors.
• Never add anything other than DEF to the tank – especially any form of hydrocarbon
such as diesel fuel, fuel system additives, gasoline, or any other petroleum-based
product. Even a very small amount of these, less than 100 parts per million or less
than 1 oz. per 78 gallons (295 liters) will contaminate the entire DEF system and will
require replacement. If owners use a container, funnel or nozzle when refilling the
tank, it should either be new or one that is has only been used for adding DEF. Mopar
provides an attachable nozzle with its DEF for this purpose.
