Fuel Selection –
3.0L Diesel EngineUse good quality diesel
fuel from a reputable sup-
plier in your vehicle. Fed-
eral law requires that you
must fuel this vehicle with
Ultra Low Sulfur Highway
Diesel fuel (15 ppm Sulfur
maximum) and prohibits
the use of Low Sulfur High-
way Diesel fuel (500 ppm
Sulfur maximum) to avoid
damage to the emissions
control system. For most
year-round service, No. 2
diesel fuel meeting ASTM
specification D-975 Grade
S15 will provide good per-
formance. We recommend
youuseablendofupto
5% biodiesel, meeting
ASTM specification D-975
with your diesel engine.
This vehicle is compatible
with biodiesel blends greater
than 5% but no greater than
20% biodiesel meeting
ASTM specification D-7467
provided the shortened
maintenance intervals are
followed as directed.24.6 Gallons (93 Liters)

CAUTION!
• Mixing of engine coolant (antifreeze) other than specified Organic Additive
Technology (OAT) engine coolant (antifreeze), may result in engine damage and
may decrease corrosion protection. Organic Additive Technology (OAT) engine
coolant is different and should not be mixed with Hybrid Organic Additive
Technology (HOAT) engine coolant (antifreeze) or any “globally compatible”
coolant (antifreeze). If a non-OAT engine coolant (antifreeze) is introduced into
the cooling system in an emergency, the cooling system will need to be drained,
flushed, and refilled with fresh OAT coolant (conforming to MS-12106), by an
authorized dealer as soon as possible.
• Do not use water alone or alcohol-based engine coolant (antifreeze) products.
Do not use additional rust inhibitors or antirust products, as they may not be
compatible with the radiator engine coolant and may plug the radiator.
• This vehicle has not been designed for use with propylene glycol-based engine
coolant (antifreeze). Use of propylene glycol-based engine coolant (antifreeze)
is not recommended.
MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE — GASOLINE ENGINE
Your vehicle is equipped with an automatic oil change indicator system. The oil
change indicator system will remind you that it is time to take your vehicle in for
scheduled maintenance.
Based on engine operation conditions, the oil change indicator message will
illuminate. This means that service is required for your vehicle. Operating conditions
such as frequent short-trips, trailer tow, extremely hot or cold ambient temperatures,
and E85 fuel usage will influence when the “Oil Change Required” message is
displayed. Severe Operating Conditions can cause the change oil message to
illuminate as early as 3,500 miles (5,600 km) since last reset. Have your vehicle
serviced as soon as possible, within the next 500 miles (805 km).
Your authorized dealer will reset the oil change indicator message after completing the
scheduled oil change. If a scheduled oil change is performed by someone other than
your authorized dealer, the message can be reset by referring to the steps described
under “Instrument Cluster Warning Lights” in “What To Do In Emergencies” in this
guide or “Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)” in “Understanding Your
Instrument Panel” in your Owners Manual on the DVD for further information.
NOTE:
Under no circumstances should oil change intervals exceed 10,000 miles (16,000 km)
or twelve months, whichever comes first.

At Each Stop For Fuel
• Check the engine oil level. Refer to “Maintenance Procedures/Engine Oil” in
“Maintaining Your Vehicle” for further information.
• Check the windshield washer solvent and add if required.
Once A Month
• Check tire pressure and look for unusual wear or damage.
• Inspect the battery, and clean and tighten the terminals as required.
• Check the fluid levels of the coolant reservoir, brake master cylinder, and power
steering, and add as needed.
• Check all lights and other electrical items for correct operation.
At Each Oil Change
• Change the engine oil filter.
• Inspect the brake hoses and lines.
CAUTION!
Failure to perform the required maintenance items may result in damage to the
vehicle.

MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE — B6 To B20 Biodiesel
NOTE:
• Under no circumstances should oil change intervals exceed 8,000 miles
(12 875 km) or six months, whichever comes first when using Biodiesel blends
greater than 5% (B5).
• The owner is required to monitor mileage for B6-B20 biodiesel, the automatic oil
change indicator system does not reflect the use of biofuels.
Once A Month Or Before A Long Trip:
• Check engine oil level
• Check windshield washer fluid level
• Check the tire inflation pressures and look for unusual wear or damage
• Check the fluid levels of the coolant reservoir, brake master cylinder, power
steering and transmission as needed
• Check function of all interior and exterior lights
Required Maintenance
Refer to the Maintenance Schedules on the following pages for required mainte-
nance.
At Every Oil Change Interval As Indicated By Oil Change Indicator System:
•
Change oil and filter.
•
Completely fill the Diesel Exhaust Fluid tank.
• Rotate the tires.Rotate at the first sign of irregular wear, even if it occurs before the oil
indicator system turns on.
•
Inspect battery and clean and tighten terminals as required.
•
Inspect automatic transmission fluid if equipped with dipstick.
•
Inspect brake pads, shoes, rotors, drums, hoses and park brake.
•
