CAUTION!
• Diesel fuel will damage blacktop paving surfaces. Drain the filter into an
appropriate container.
• Do not prefill the fuel filter when installing a new fuel filter. There is a possibility
debris could be introduced into the fuel filter during this action. It is best to
install the filter dry and allow the in-tank lift pump to prime the fuel system.
• If the “Water In Fuel Indicator Light” remains on, DO NOT START the engine
before you drain water from the fuel filter to avoid engine damage.
EXHAUST REGENERATION
This engine meets all required EPA diesel engine emissions standards. To achieve
these emissions standards, your vehicle is equipped with a state-of-the-art engine
and exhaust system. These systems are seamlessly integrated into your vehicle and
managed by the Powertrain Control Module (PCM). Additionally, your vehicle has the
ability to alert you to additional maintenance required on your vehicle or engine.
Refer to the following messages that may be displayed in your instrument cluster.
Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) Messages
WARNING!
A hot exhaust system can start a fire if you park over materials that can burn. Such
materials might be grass or leaves coming into contact with your exhaust system.
Do not park or operate your vehicle in areas where your exhaust system can contact
anything that can burn.
Your vehicle has the ability to alert you to additional maintenance required on your
vehicle or engine. Refer to the following messages that may be displayed on your
instrument cluster:
• Exhaust Filter XX% Full Safely Drive at Highway Speeds to Remedy — This message
will be displayed in the instrument cluster if the exhaust particulate filter reaches
80% of its maximum storage capacity. Under conditions of exclusive short
duration and low speed driving cycles, your diesel engine and exhaust after-
treatment system may never reach the conditions required to cleanse the filter to
remove the trapped PM. If this occurs, the “Exhaust Filter XX% Full Safely Drive
at Highway Speeds to Remedy” message will be displayed in the instrument
cluster display. If this message is displayed, you will hear one chime to assist in
alerting you of this condition. By simply driving your vehicle at highway speeds for
up to 20 minutes, you can remedy the condition in the particulate filter system and
allow your diesel engine and exhaust after-treatment system to cleanse the filter to
remove the trapped PM and restore the system to normal operating condition.
