Diesel Exhaust Fluid (diesel engine only)
It illuminates when the diesel exhaust fluid level falls below
0.5 gallons (1.9L) in the 5- gallon (19.0L) tank or one gallon
(3.8L) in the 9-gallon (34.0L) tank. Refill the tank or, at a
minimum, add at least one gallon (3.8L) to the 5- gallon (19.0L) tank or
two gallons (7.6L) to the 9- gallon (34.0L) tank.
Diesel Particulate Filter (diesel engine only)
It illuminates when the soot level in the diesel particulate filter
has reached a point where it requires operator assistance. See
Diesel particulate filterin theMaintenancechapter, and your
engine operator’s manual, for more details.
Do Not Shift (Allison automatic transmission only)
It illuminates while driving if a transmission problem exists;
shifting may be restricted. Depending on the severity of the
problem, the shifter’s digital read-out may turn blank.
Operation may continue in order to reach service assistance. The control
unit may not respond to shift selector requests, since there are operating
limitations on the transmission (such as. upshift and downshift
restrictions). Direction changes do not occur.
Direction Indicator
It illuminates when you turn on the left or right turn signal or
the hazard warning flasher. If the indicators stay on or flash
faster, check for a burned out bulb.
Electronic Locking Differential
It illuminates when using the electronic locking differential.
Engine Oil Pressure (gasoline engine only)
It illuminates when engine oil pressure is low.
Fasten Safety belt
It illuminates and a tone sounds to remind you to fasten your
safety belt.

Note:Do not increase engine speed until the oil pressure gauge
indicates normal pressure. The oil pressure gauge should indicate this
within 15 seconds after starting.
Note:Idle the engine for three to five minutes before operating with a
full load.
Note:Try to limit engine idle to 10 minutes. Excessive idling reduces
fuel economy.
Vehicles with a Manual Transmission
Note:Do not touch the accelerator pedal.
1. Fully press the clutch pedal.
2. Start the engine.
Vehicles with an Automatic Transmission
Note:Do not touch the accelerator pedal.
1. Select positionN,orP(if equipped with a Park position).
2. Fully press the brake pedal.
3. Start the engine.
Starting the Engine with the Vehicle on a Steep Grade
When starting a diesel engine when the loaded vehicle is on a grade, the
engine RPM starts to fall slightly when you engage the clutch. Do not
disengage the clutch and try to increase engine RPM as this may damage
driveline components. The engine recovers as the vehicle begins moving.
DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER (DPF)
WARNING:The normal operating temperature of the exhaust
system is very high. Never work around, or attempt to repair, any
part of the exhaust system until it has cooled. Use special care when
working around the diesel particulate filter. The DPF heats up to a high
temperature after only a short period of engine operation, and can
remain hot even after the engine is turned off. Failure to follow these
instructions may result in serious personal injury.
Your vehicle is equipped with a diesel particulate filter (DPF), as part of
the after-treatment exhaust system, to trap soot and other large particles
produced by the engine combustion process. You must periodically
reduce the soot that accumulates in the filter to prevent excessive
exhaust restriction. The engine and after-treatment system generally
perform the soot reduction process, also known as “filter regeneration,”
automatically.

3. Do not press the accelerator pedal, service brake pedal, or clutch
pedal (manual transmission).
4. The parking brake must remain set.
On average, depending on filter level and other factors, the process takes
20–30 minutes to complete. The DPF lamp turns off when the process is
complete. Repeat Steps 1–5, if parked regeneration is interrupted.
To Discontinue Parked Regeneration
Press any of the floor pedals to discontinue parked regeneration.
Maintenance and Service
The DPF can retain a relatively large amount of residual ash and provide
many miles and hours of maintenance-free operation. At some point,
generally beyond 150000 miles (240000 kilometers) or 5000 hours of
operation (whichever comes first), the DPF requires professional
cleaning to remove the accumulated ash.
The exact number of miles or hours of operation vary greatly depending
upon vehicle and engine loading and operating conditions, ash content of
the engine oil, and quality of the diesel fuel used in your truck. Adhering
to your engine manufacturer’s recommended oil and fuel specifications
maximizes the miles and hours of operation before a DPF professional
cleaning is required. See your engine manufacturer’s owner’s manual for
more details about recommended maintenance and service of your DPF.
Exhaust Outlet Assembly
WARNING:The normal operating temperature of the exhaust
system is very high. Never work around or attempt to repair any
part of the exhaust system until it has cooled. Failure to follow these
instructions may result in serious personal injury.
Note:Do not modify or remove this device. Modification of the system
or additions of aftermarket devices can reduce the effectiveness of the
system, as well as cause damage to the exhaust system or engine. Any
modifications may also invalidate the vehicle or engine warranty. See
your warranty information.
Note:Blocked or plugged holes or modification to, or removal of, the
outlet assembly could result in elevated exhaust temperatures that may
result in vehicle or property damage or personal injury.
The exhaust outlet assembly on your vehicle is a uniquely functioning
device that accompanies the DPF assembly. It can help control the
temperature of the exhaust during the DPF regeneration process.
Starting and Stopping the Engine99

The inlet holes in the side of the assembly are functional. These holes
allow outside air to enter into the outlet assembly. Keep the holes clear
of mud and other foreign material to maintain proper functionality of the
system. One way to keep the holes clear is to spray the outlet assembly
with a hose when washing your vehicle. Failure to keep the functional
holes clear of foreign material may result in blocking or plugging of the
holes.
SWITCHING OFF A DIESEL ENGINE
Allow the engine to idle for three to five minutes before shutting it
down. The larger the engine, the greater the need is for this idling
period.
Note:Try to limit engine idle to 10 minutes. Excessive idling reduces
fuel economy.
ENGINE AUTOMATIC SHUTDOWN (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING:In the event of engine shutdown, make sure the
vehicle is safely off the road and the problem is remedied prior to
returning to the road. Failure to remove the vehicle from the road
could result in an accident, causing serious injury or death.
This feature either illuminates a light in the instrument cluster or sounds
a tone (or both) indicating that the engine is being shut down due to
high coolant temperature, low engine oil pressure, high diesel particulate
filter soot loading or low engine coolant level. If any of these conditions
exist, the engine automatically shuts down.
If the engine shuts down, you can restart and operate it for 30 seconds
at a time or until you correct the problem. Do not attempt to use this
restarting feature to drive your vehicle very far as serious engine damage
could result.
ENGINE BLOCK HEATER (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING:Failure to follow engine block heater instructions
could result in property damage or personal injury.
WARNING:Do not use your heater with ungrounded electrical
systems or two-pronged (cheater) adapters. There is a risk of
electrical shock.

•Checking that the pitman arm (steering arm at steering gear)
mounting is tight and locked. Check system for leaks or hose chafing.
Repair immediately, if necessary.
•Maintaining proper steering gear and power steering pump lubricant
levels.
•Checking steering column joint bolts and steering linkage, particularly
for body-to-chassis clearance.
Steering Column Joint Bolts
As a good maintenance practice, check steering column joint bolt
tightness every 60000 miles (96000 kilometers) or annually, whichever
occurs first. Do not overtighten the bolts.
Hydraulic System
Whenever draining and refilling the power steering’s hydraulic system for
any reason, bleed air from the system before returning the vehicle to
service. Failure to bleed the hydraulic system properly can result in
degradation of power system performance.
Consult an authorized dealer who is aware of the proper procedures for
filling and bleeding the system.
Catalytic Converter (Diesel Engine)
Note:If your vehicle is equipped with a catalytic converter or muffler,
do not blend waste oil with diesel fuel. Operate only on ultra-low sulfur
(less than 15 parts per million sulfur) diesel fuel with a cetane value of
45 or higher.
If your diesel engine is equipped with a catalytic converter, it is
important to review the maintenance schedule to make sure proper
functioning of the catalytic converter. Also, take precautions not to
damage the catalytic converter when servicing your engine or storing
your vehicle.
Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF), Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) and
Select Catalyst Reduction (SCR) System
See your engine operator’s manual for information about DEF, DPF and
SCR system service
Air Induction System
WARNING:When performing maintenance to any turbocharged
engine with engine air inlet piping disconnected, keep loose
clothing, jewelry and long hair away from the engine air inlet piping. A
turbocharger compressor air inlet protective shield should be installed
over the turbocharger air inlet to reduce the risk of personal injury or
death.
