A fuel filter change is required.
FUEL FILTER CHANGE
REQUIRED
You must have your vehicle serviced by an authorized dealer
if approximately two hours after the EXHAUST OVERLOADED DRIVE TO CLEAN message has displayed and you have not
driven your vehicle above 30 mph (48 km/h) for at least 20
minutes to clean the diesel particulate filter.
EXHAUST OVER LIMIT
SERVICE NOW
You are responsible for assuring that you operate your vehiclein a manner that allows diesel particulate filter cleaning tooccur. Ignoring the EXHAUST OVER LIMIT SERVICE NOW warning message could lead to reduced drivability and
customer expense, including damage to the diesel particulate filter. Your new vehicle warranty may not cover this damage.
The water separator has reached a predetermined capacity and needs draining.

12 Volt DC Power Point
WARNINGS
Do not plug optional electrical
accessories into the cigar lighter
socket. Incorrect use of the cigar
lighter can cause damage not covered by
the vehicle warranty, and can result in fire
or serious injury. Do not use a power point for
operating a cigar lighter. Incorrect
use of the power points can cause
damage not covered by the vehicle
warranty, and can result in fire or serious
injury. Note:
When you switch the ignition on, you
can use the socket to power 12 volt
appliances with a maximum current rating
of 15 amps.
If the power supply does not work after you
switch the ignition off, switch the ignition
on.
Note: Do not hang any accessory from the
accessory plug.
Note: Do not use the power point over the
vehicle capacity of 12 volt DC 180 watts or
a fuse may blow.
Note: Always keep the power point caps
closed when not in use.
Do not insert objects other than an
accessory plug into the power point. This
will damage the power point and blow the
fuse.
Run the vehicle for full capacity use of the
power point.
To prevent the battery from running out of
charge:
• Do not use the power point longer than
necessary when the vehicle is not
running.
• Do not leave devices plugged in
overnight or when you park your vehicle
for extended periods. Locations
Power points may be in the following
locations:
•
On the instrument panel (two
locations).
• Inside the front under-seat storage
compartment.
• Inside the rear under-seat storage
compartment.
110 Volt AC Power Points (If Equipped) WARNING
Do not keep electrical devices
plugged in the power point whenever
the device is not in use. Do not use
any extension cord with the 110 volt AC
power point, since it will defeat the safety
protection design. Doing so may cause the
power point to overload due to powering
multiple devices that can reach beyond
the 150 watt load limit and could result in
fire or serious injury. Note:
The power point will turn off when
the ignition is switched off or the battery
voltage drops below 11 volts.
Use the power point for powering electric
devices that require up to 150 watts. It is
on the instrument panel, center area. 81

If the fuel cap warning lamp remains on,
at the next opportunity, safely pull off of
the road, remove the fuel filler cap, align
the cap properly and reinstall it. The check
fuel cap warning lamp or warning message
may not reset immediately. It may take
several driving cycles for the indicators to
turn off. A driving cycle consists of an
engine start-up (after four or more hours
with the engine off) followed by normal
city and highway driving.
Fuel Fill Rate
Your vehicle has a fuel fill pipe that is able
to accept fuel up to 20 gal (75 L) per
minute from a fuel-dispensing nozzle.
Pumping fuel at greater flow rates may
result in premature nozzle shut-off or spit
back.
Truck stops have fuel pumps and nozzles
designed for larger, heavy-duty trucks. If
you are refueling your vehicle at a truck
stop and the nozzle shuts off repeatedly,
wait 5-10 seconds, then use a slower fill
rate.
FUEL CONSUMPTION
Real world fuel consumption is governed
by many factors, for example driving style,
high speed driving, stop-start driving, air
conditioning usage, the accessories fitted,
payload and towing. •
The usable capacity of the fuel tank is
the amount of fuel that can be added
into the tank after the gauge indicates
empty.
• The advertised capacity is the total fuel
tank size. See
Capacities and
Specifications (page 252). It is the
combined usable capacity plus the
empty reserve.
• Due to the empty reserve, you may not
be able to refuel the full amount of the
advertised capacity of the fuel tank
even when the fuel gauge reads empty.
Empty reserve is the amount of fuel
remaining in the tank after the fuel gauge
indicates empty. The amount of usable
fuel in the empty reserve varies and should
not be relied upon to increase driving range.
Filling the Tank
For consistent results when filling the fuel
tank:
• Turn the ignition off before refueling
your vehicle; a temporary inaccurate
reading may result if the engine is left
on when refueling your vehicle.
• Use the same fill rate
(low-medium-high) each time the tank
is refueled.
• Allow no more than two automatic
click-offs when refueling your vehicle.
Results are most accurate when the filling
method is consistent.
Calculating Fuel Economy
Do not measure fuel economy during the
first
900 mi (1,500 km) of driving (this is
your engine ’s break-in period); a more
accurate measurement is obtained after
1,900 mi (3,000 km)
.
Fuel expense, frequency of fill ups or fuel
gauge readings are not accurate ways to
measure fuel economy.

TOWING A TRAILER
WARNINGS
Do not exceed the GVWR or
the GAWR specified on the
certification label. Towing trailers beyond the
maximum recommended
gross trailer weight exceeds the
limit of the vehicle and could
result in engine damage,
transmission damage, structural
damage, loss of vehicle control,
vehicle rollover and personal
injury. Your vehicle may have electrical
items, such as fuses or relays,
related to towing. See Fuses
(page 161).
Your vehicle's load capacity
designation is by weight, not by
volume, so you cannot necessarily
use all available space when
loading a vehicle.
Towing a trailer places an extra
load on your vehicle's engine,
transmission, axle, brakes, tires
and suspension. Inspect these
components periodically during,
and after, any towing operation. Load Placement
To help minimize how trailer
movement affects your vehicle
when driving:
•
Load the heaviest items closest
to the trailer floor.
• Load the heaviest items
centered between the left and
right side trailer tires.
• Load the heaviest items above
the trailer axles or just slightly
forward toward the trailer
tongue. Do not allow the final
trailer tongue weight to go
above or below 10-15% of the
loaded trailer weight.
When driving with a trailer or
payload, a slight takeoff vibration
or shudder may be present due to
the increased payload weight.
Additional information regarding
proper trailer loading and setting
your vehicle up for towing is
located in another chapter of this
manual. See
Load Limit (page
135).
