Biodiesel
WARNINGS
Do not use home heating oil,agricultural fuel, raw fats and oils,waste cooking greases, biodieselfuels greater than 20% or any diesel fuelnot intended for highway use. Damage tothe fuel injection system, engine andexhaust catalyst can occur if an improperfuel is used. Do not add gasoline, gasoholor alcohol to diesel fuel. This practicecreates a serious fire hazard and engineperformance problems.
Do not mix diesel fuel with gasoline,gasohol or alcohol. This could causean explosion resulting in personalinjury.
Do not add gasoline, gasohol oralcohol to diesel fuel. This practicecreates a serious fire hazard resultingin personal injury and engine performanceproblems.
Do not use home heating oil or anydiesel fuel not intended for highwayuse. Damage to the fuel injectionsystem, engine, exhaust catalyst and dieselparticulate filter can occur if an improperfuel is used. Red dye is used to identifyfuels intended for agricultural andnon-highway use.
You may operate your vehicle on dieselfuels containing up to 20% biodiesel, alsoknown as B20.
Biodiesel fuel is a chemically convertedproduct from renewable fuel sources, suchas vegetable oils, animal fats and wastecooking greases.
To help achieve acceptable engineperformance and durability when usingbiodiesel in your vehicle:
•Confirm the biodiesel content of thefuel to be B20 (20% biodiesel) or less
•Only use biodiesel fuel of good qualitythat complies with industry standards
•Follow the recommended servicemaintenance intervals. SeeScheduled Maintenance (page 573).
•Do not store biodiesel fuel in the fueltank for more than 1 month
•Consider changing brands or reducingbiodiesel content if you have coldtemperature fuel gelling issues or afrequent LOW FUEL PRESSUREmessage appearing
•Do NOT use raw oils, fats or wastecooking greases
Use of biodiesel in concentrations greaterthan 20% may cause damage to yourvehicle, including engine and/or exhaustafter-treatment hardware (exhaustcatalyst and particulate filter) failures.Concentrations greater than 20% can alsocause fuel filter restrictions that may resultin a lack of power or damage to fuelsystem components, including fuel pumpand fuel injector failures.
SAE 5W-40 or SAE 15W-40 oil isrecommended for fuels with greater than5% biodiesel (B5). Refer to the Specialoperating conditions section under theSchedule Maintenance chapter for moreinformation about oil change intervals andother maintenance when operating onbiodiesel.
