INSTRUMENT CLUSTER
DISPLAY
Your vehicle may be equipped with an instru-
ment cluster display, which offers useful in-
formation to the driver. With the ignition in
the STOP/OFF position (and the key removed,
for vehicles with mechanical key), opening/
closing of a door will activate the display for
viewing, and display the total miles or kilo-
meters in the odometer. Your instrument
cluster display is designed to display impor-
tant information about your vehicle’s systems
and features. Using a driver interactive dis-
play located on the instrument panel, your
instrument cluster display can show you how
systems are working and give you warnings
when they aren’t. The steering wheel
mounted controls allow you to scroll through
and enter the main menus and submenus.
You can access the specific information you
want and make selections and adjustments.

change indicator system. The “Oil Change
Required” message will display in the instru-
ment cluster display for five seconds after a
single chime has sounded, to indicate the
next scheduled oil change interval. The en-
gine oil change indicator system is duty cycle

Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) Messages
This engine meets all required diesel engine
emissions standards. To achieve these emis-
sions standards, your vehicle is equipped
with a state-of-the-art engine and exhaust
system. These systems are seamlessly inte-
grated into your vehicle and managed by theSRT Performance Features Controls
GETTING TO KNOW YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL
76

Powertrain Control Module (PCM). The PCM
manages engine combustion to allow the ex-
haust system’s catalyst to trap and burn Par-
ticulate Matter (PM) pollutants, with no input
or interaction on your part.
WARNING!
A hot exhaust system can start a fire if you
park over materials that can burn. Such
materials might be grass or leaves coming
into contact with your exhaust system. Do
not park or operate your vehicle in areas
where your exhaust system can contact
anything that can burn.
Your vehicle has the ability to alert you to
additional maintenance required on your ve-
hicle or engine. Refer to the following mes-
sages that may be displayed on your Instru-
ment Cluster Display:
• Exhaust Filter Nearing Full Safely Drive at
Highway Speeds to Clear — This message
will be displayed on the instrument cluster
display if the exhaust particulate filter
reaches 80% of its maximum storage ca-
pacity. Under conditions of exclusive short
duration and low speed driving cycles, your diesel engine and exhaust after-
treatment system may never reach the
conditions required to cleanse the filter to
remove the trapped PM. If this occurs, the
“Exhaust Filter XX% Full Safely Drive at
Highway Speeds to Remedy” message will
be displayed in the instrument cluster
display. If this message is displayed, you
will hear one chime to assist in alerting
you of this condition. 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
Continue Driving — This message indicates
that the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) is
self-cleaning. Maintain your current driv-
ing condition until regeneration is com-
pleted. •
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 alert-
ing you of this condition.
• Exhaust System Service Required - See
Dealer — This messages indicates regen-
eration has been disabled due to a system
malfunction. At this point the engine Pow-
ertrain Control Module (PCM) will register
a fault code, the instrument panel will
display a MIL light.
CAUTION!
See your authorized dealer, as damage to
the exhaust system could occur soon with
continued operation.
• Exhaust Filter Full — Power Reduced See
Dealer — This message indicates the PCM
has derated the engine to limit the likeli-
hood of permanent damage to the after-
treatment system. If this condition is not
corrected and a dealer service is not per-
formed, extensive exhaust after-treatment
77

damage can occur. To correct this condi-
tion it will be necessary to have your ve-
hicle serviced by your local authorized
dealer.
NOTE:
Failing to follow the oil change indicator,
changing your oil and resetting the oil change
indicator by 0 miles remaining will prevent
the diesel exhaust filter from performing it's
cleaning routine. This will shortly result in a
Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) and re-
duced engine power. Only an authorized
dealer will be able to correct this condition.
CAUTION!
See your authorized dealer, as damage to
the exhaust system could occur soon with
continued operation.
Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) Warning
Messages
Your vehicle will begin displaying warning
messages when the DEF level reaches a driv-
ing range of approximately 500 miles. If the
following warning message sequence is ig- nored, your vehicle may not restart unless
DEF is added with in the mileage shown in
the instrument cluster display message.
•
Engine Will Not Restart in XXXX mi DEF Low
Refill Soon — This message will display
when DEF driving range is less than
500 miles, DEF fluid top off is required
with in the displayed mileage. The mes-
sage will be shown in the display during
vehicle start up with the current allowed
mileage and accompanied by a single
chime. The remaining mileage can be
pulled up anytime by way of the “Mes-
sages” list within the instrument cluster
display.
• Engine Will Not Restart in XXXX mi Refill DEF
— This message will display when DEF
driving range is less than 311 miles. It is
also displayed at 249 miles, 186 miles,
and 124 miles. Continuous Display starts

with in the displayed mileage. The mes-
sage will be shown in the display during
vehicle start up with an updated distance
mileage, and it will be accompanied by a
single chime. Starting at 100 miles, re-
maining range will be continuously dis- played while operating the vehicle.
Chimes will also accompany the 75,
50 and 25 mile remaining distances. The
DEF Low telltale will be on continuously
until DEF fluid is topped off.
• Engine Will Not Restart Refill DEF — This
message will display when the DEF driving
range is less than 1 mile, DEF fluid top off
is required or the engine will not restart.
The message will be shown in the instru-
ment cluster display during vehicle start
up, and it will be accompanied by a single
chime. The DEF Low telltale will be illu-
minated continuously until DEF fluid tank
is filled with a minimum of two gallons of
DEF.
Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) Fault Warning
Messages
There are different messages which are dis-
played if the vehicle detects that the DEF
system has been filled with a fluid other than
DEF, has experienced component failures, or
when tampering has been detected.
