CAUTION!
• Diesel fuel will damage blacktop paving surfaces. Drain the filter into anappropriate 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 on your Driver Information
Display (DID).
Exhaust System — Regeneration Required Now
This message Indicates that the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) reached 80% of its
maximum storage capacity.
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.
Exhaust System — Regeneration in Process Exhaust Filter XX% Full
Indicates that the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) is self-cleaning. Maintain your
current driving condition until regeneration is completed.
Exhaust System — Regeneration Completed
This message indicates that the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) self-cleaning is
completed. If this message is displayed, you will hear one chime to assist in alerting
you of this condition.

Adding Diesel Exhaust Fluid
The DEF gauge (located in the DID) will display the level of DEF remaining in the
tank.
Completely fill the DEF tank through the diesel exhaust fluid fill location (located
behind the fuel door) at every maintenance interval or before if prompted by the
Driver Information Display (DID).
NOTE:
• The gauge may take up to five seconds to update after adding a gallon or more ofDiesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) to the DEF tank. If you have a fault related to the DEF
system, the gauge may not update to the new level. See your authorized dealer for
service.
• The DEF gauge may also not immediately update after a refill if the temperature of the DEF fluid is below 12F (-11C). The DEF line heater will possibly warm up the
DEF fluid and allow the gauge to update after a period of run time. Under very cold
conditions, it is possible that the gauge may not reflect the new fill level for several
drives.
NOTE:
• Driving conditions (altitude, vehicle speed, load, etc.) will effect the
amount of DEF that is used in your
vehicle.
• Since DEF will begin to freeze at 12°F (-11°C), your vehicle is equipped with
an automatic DEF heating system.
This allows the DEF injection system to
operate properly at temperatures be-
low 12°F (-11°C).

CAP-LESS FUEL FILL FUNNEL
The funnel for the Cap-Less Fuel System is located on top of the spare tire or in the
storage tub if not equipped with a spare tire. If your vehicle is out of fuel and an
auxiliary fuel can is needed, insert the funnel into the filler neck and proceed to fill
the vehicle.
ENHANCED ACCIDENT RESPONSE SYSTEM (EARS)
This vehicle is equipped with an Enhanced Accident Response System.
Please refer to “Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) — Air Bags” in “Getting
Started” in this guide for further information on the Enhanced Accident Response
System (EARS) function.
EVENT DATA RECORDER (EDR)
This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). The main purpose of an
EDR is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations, such as an air bag
deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in understanding how a
vehicle’s systems performed.
Please refer to “Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) — Air Bags” in “Getting
Started” in this guide for further information on the Event Data Recorder (EDR).

CAUTION!
• Mixing of engine coolant (antifreeze) other than specified Organic AdditiveTechnology (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.90032), 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.
E-85 Flexible Fuel — 3.6L Engine Only
E-85 General Information
