WARNING LAMPS AND
INDICATORS
The following warning lamps and
indicators will alert you to a vehicle
condition that may become serious. Some
lamps will light when you start your vehicle
to make sure they work. If any lamps
remain on after starting your vehicle, refer
to the respective system warning lamp for
further information. Note:
Some warning indicators appear in
the information display and function the
same as a warning lamp but do not display
when you start your vehicle.
Diesel Engine Brake Lights when you switch the
engine brake on. See General
Information (page 37).

Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) (If
Equipped) With the key in the on position,
lights when the DEF is
contaminated or low. See
Selective Catalytic Reduction System
(page
21).
Glow Plug Pre-Heat With the key in the on position,
lights when the glow plug heat
is necessary as a starting aid.
Wait until the light goes off before starting.
See
Starting a Diesel Engine (page 10).
After you start the engine, the light should
turn off. When the engine is cold, the light
should always light for a short period.
Water In Fuel During refueling, it is possible for
you to pump
water-contaminated diesel fuel
into your fuel tank. Your vehicle ’s fuel
system is equipped with a fuel filter and
water separator to remove water from the
fuel. The water in fuel indicator lights when
the fuel and water separator has a
significant quantity of water in it and
requires immediate draining.
If the water in fuel lights when the engine
is running, stop your vehicle as soon as
safely possible, shut off the engine, then
drain the fuel and water separator. See
Fuel Quality
(page 15). Allowing water
to stay in the fuel system, after the water
in fuel indicator lights, could result in
extensive damage or failure of the fuel
injection system. WARNING
Do not drain the fuel and water
separator while the engine is running.
Fuel may ignite if the separator is
drained while the engine is running or the
vehicle is moving. Note:
Do not drain the fuel and water
separator while the engine is running. Air will
enter into the fuel system causing the engine
not to operate properly.

WARNINGS
Tampering or disabling your vehicle
’s
exhaust aftertreatment system will
result in severe vehicle performance
limitation including eventual speed limiting
to 5 mph. Your vehicle
’s information display will
display a series of messages regarding the
amount of DEF available. A systems check
will display messages indicating the
amount of DEF available (OK or under 1⁄2
full) or will produce a warning message
that displays the mileage (kilometers)
remaining as the fluid in the DEF tank nears
empty. For more information on warning
messages, see the Information Displays
chapter of your Owner ’s Manual. As the DEF level nears empty,
the DEF warning symbol will be
displayed and a series of tones
will sound with the messages starting at
500 miles (805 km) remaining before DEF
is depleted. The warning symbol and
messages will continue until you refill the
DEF tank. Continued driving without refilling will
result in the following actions as required
by the California Air Resources Board
(CARB) and the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA):
•
Within a certain number of miles
(kilometers) to empty, speed will be
limited upon vehicle restart. Prior to
this occurring a message will appear in
the information display.
• Further vehicle operation without
refilling your DEF tank will cause the
engine to enter an idle-only condition.
This will only occur upon vehicle
refueling or at an extended idle. A
message will indicate the required
actions to resume normal operation. It
is required to add a minimum of 0.5
gallons (1.9L) of DEF to the tank to exit
the idle-only condition, but your vehicle
will still be in the speed-limiting mode
until you refill the tank completely.
For either vehicle speed limiting or idle-only
condition, normal vehicle operation will
resume when you refill the DEF tank.
Note: When filling the DEF tank from
empty, there may be a short delay before
detecting the increased level of fluid. The
increased level detection must occur before
your vehicle returns to full power. Low DEF Warnings and Actions — Instrument Cluster Messages (Optional information
display messages shown, base information display messages similar)

GENERAL INFORMATION
Diesel Engine Braking
This feature increases engine braking at
higher engine speeds to provide better
grade descent control with less brake and
transmission wear and tear.
Press the button located on the
switch bank next to the audio
unit to switch the system on or
off.
A light will illuminate in the instrument
cluster when this feature is switched on.
You can use this feature with tow/haul to
provide further increased engine braking.
For more information on tow/haul, see
Automatic Transmission operation in your
Owner's Manual.
