Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF)
Gauge
With the engine control switch in the
ON position, this gauge indicates
the approximate quantity of DEF
remaining in the DEF tank. F means
the tank is full and E means the
tank is almost empty. When only
one green bar is showing, the DEF
tank is almost empty and should be
refilled soon. If the vehicle is driven
too long with only one bar, the green
will change to amber and additional
warnings and indicators will display.
Vehicle speed will be severely
limited when the DEF tank is empty.
Be sure to add DEF in advance of
the empty status. See

regeneration is in progress. When
the vehicle is stationary, the exhaust
sound changes as the engine speed
increases. Also, operating sounds of
the exhaust throttle may be heard. Keep people and flammable objects

0180.
During extended engine idling, this
light may appear on the DIC and the
DPF may be automatically
regenerated.
Checking PM Level Light
CHECKING PM LEVEL
In the case of performing the
"Selectable" regeneration, this light
