The diesel fuel must meet ASTM
International specification D 975,
Grades No. 2-D or No. 1-D S15,
also known as Ultra Low Sulfur
Diesel. Contact a fuel supplier or
fueling station with any questions.
Caution
Use of diesel fuel other than Ultra
Low Sulfur Diesel (15 ppm sulfur
maximum) will cause damage to
the exhaust after-treatment
system. This damage would not
be covered by the vehicle
warranty. Do not use marine,(Continued)
Caution (Continued)
locomotive, or boiler distillate fuel
since it may contain higher sulfur
levels.
Diesel Fuel Grades
For best results use No. 2-D diesel
fuel year-round because it is
blended for seasonal temperature
differences, both above and below
freezing conditions. No. 1-D diesel
also meeting ASTM International
D975 fuel can be used in very cold
temperatures (below -18 °C or 0 °F);
however, it will reduce power and
fuel economy. Avoid using No. 1-D
diesel fuel in warm or hot climates.
It can result in stalling, poor starting
when the engine is hot, and damage
to the fuel injection system.
Premium Diesel Fuel
Premium Diesel Fuel (FQP-1A)
corresponds to the Engine
Manufacturers Association (EMA)
Recommended Guideline. It may provide less noise, better starting,
and better vehicle performance, but
is not required.
Biodiesel Blends
Retail pumps dispensing blends
containing up to 5% biodiesel (B5)
are not required to be labeled with
the concentration of biodiesel.
Blends up to B5 must meet ASTM
D975 (Grades No. 2-D or No. 1-D
S15 Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel). When
refueling with a biodiesel blend
above B5, one of the following
labels should appear on the
dispenser:

248 Driving and Operating
Blends containing more than 5%
and up to 20% biodiesel must meet
ASTM specification D7467
(Biodiesel blend, B6 - B20) and are
labeled with an orange or bluepump label. To reduce the risk of
poor quality fuel, purchase biodiesel
blends from a fuel supplier or fueling
station that sells BQ-9000
®certified
biodiesel. See www.bq-9000.org for
a list of certified marketers. For
detailed information on the use of
biodiesel, see Biodiesel0249.
What Fuel to Use in
Canada (Diesel)
Use of diesel fuel with ultra low
sulfur content (15 ppm, maximum) is
required. Use diesel fuel that meets
the CAN/CGSB-3.517 specification
in Canada. Contact a fuel supplier
with questions about fuel.
Caution
Use of diesel fuel other than Ultra
Low Sulfur Diesel (15 ppm sulfur
maximum) will cause damage to
the exhaust after-treatment
system. This damage would not
be covered by the vehicle
warranty. Do not use marine,
(Continued)
Caution (Continued)
locomotive, or boiler distillate fuel
since it may contain higher sulfur
levels.
Diesel Fuel Types
For best results use Ultra Low
Sulfur Type B Diesel. This fuel is
blended for seasonal changes. In
extreme cold temperatures (below
-18 °C or 0 °F) Ultra Low Sulfur Type
A Diesel fuel can be used, but it
may cause power and fuel economy
losses. Avoid using Type A Diesel
fuel in warm or hot climates. Doing
so can result in stalling, poor
starting when the engine is hot, and
damage to the fuel injection system.
Premium Diesel Fuel
If available, premium diesel fuel
(FQP-1A) corresponding to the
Engine Manufacturers Association
(EMA) Recommended Guideline
could provide better starting and
vehicle performance with less noise.

252 Driving and Operating
ProblemRecommended
Action
Immediately
after refueling,
message
displays and
stays on. A large amount
of water is in the
fuel tank. Drain
the fuel filter
immediately.
If the message
stays on or
comes back on
without
refueling, then
fuel tank purging
is required. See
your dealer.
If the message
displays and the
engine stalls or
runs rough, do
not drive until
the water
contaminated
fuel is drained.Caution
Driving with this message on can
damage the fuel injection system
and the engine. If the message
comes on right after a refuel,
water was pumped into the fuel
tank. Turn off the engine and
drain the water immediately.
Removing Water from the Fuel
Filter
To drain water: 1. Turn the engine off and apply the parking brake.
2. Place a container under the filter drain valve, which is on
the bottom of the fuel filter.
3. Turn the drain plugcounterclockwise using a
suitable tool.
4. With the engine off, press and hold ENGINE START/STOP
without applying the brake for
five seconds to place the
vehicle in Service Mode. Wait
approximately five seconds,
and then press ENGINE
START/STOP again to turn it
off. This operation will enhance
water flow out of the filter. The
filter is drained as soon as
diesel fuel emerges from
the port.
