HOW DOES THE ENGINE BLOCKHEATER WORK
The engine block heater warms the enginecoolant. This allows the climate controlsystem to quickly respond. The equipmentincludes a heater element installed in theengine block and a wire harness. You canconnect the system to a grounded 110 voltAC electrical source.
Note:The engine block heater is mosteffective when outdoor temperatures arebelow 0°F (-18°C). We recommend the useof engine block heater to improve enginecold start performance.
USING THE ENGINE BLOCKHEATER
Make sure the receptacle terminals areclean and dry prior to use. Clean them witha dry cloth if necessary.
The heater uses 0.4 to 1.0 kilowatt-hoursof energy per hour of use. The system doesnot have a thermostat. It achievesmaximum temperature afterapproximately three hours of operation.Using the engine block heater longer thanthree hours does not improve systemperformance and unnecessarily useselectricity.

Failure to perform active or manualregeneration when instructed could resultin a clogged diesel particulate filter. If thediesel particulate filter fills beyond theregeneration threshold, your vehicledisables the ability for active and manualregeneration. This could result inirreversible damage your vehicle Warrantymay not cover.
DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER
REQUIREMENTS
The diesel particulate filter on your vehiclerequires periodic regeneration to maintainits correct function.
If your journeys meet one of the followingconditions:
•You drive only short distances.
•You frequently switch the ignition onand off.
•Your journeys contain a high level ofacceleration and deceleration.
You must carry out occasional trips withthe following conditions to assist theregeneration process:
•Drive your vehicle in more favorableconditions, which you will find at highervehicle speeds in normal driving, on amain road or freeway for a minimumof 20 minutes. This drive may includeshort stops that will not affect theregeneration process.
•Avoid prolonged idling and observespeed limits and road conditions.
•Do not switch the ignition off.
•Select a suitable gear to ideallymaintain engine speed between 1500and 3000 RPM.
DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER
MANUAL REGENERATION
WHAT IS DIESEL PARTICULATEFILTER MANUAL REGENERATION
Diesel particulate filter manualregeneration allows you to manually startregeneration of the diesel particulate filterat idle to clean the filter.
Note:If you are not sure whether yourvehicle has this feature, contact yourauthorized dealer.
DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTERMANUAL REGENERATIONPRECAUTIONS
WARNING: Stay clear of theexhaust tailpipe during regeneration. Hotexhaust gases can burn you badly.
You may not be able to use manualregeneration if the service engine soonwarning lamp appears in the informationdisplay.
Note:During the use of manualregeneration, you may observe a lightamount of white smoke. This is normal.
DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTERMANUAL REGENERATIONREQUIREMENTS
You can use the manual regenerationfeature when a message appears in theinformation display and you are not ableto drive in a manner that allows effectiveautomatic active regeneration or if youchoose to manually start the regenerationof the diesel particulate filter while thevehicle is idle.

Before you start manual regeneration, dothe following:
•Make sure the parking brake is on.
•Shift into park (P) on stable, levelground.
•Park your vehicle outside of anystructure.
•Park your vehicle 10–15 ft (3–5 m)away from any obstructions and awayfrom materials that can easily combustor melt, for example paper, leaves,petroleum products, fuels, plastics andother dry organic material.
•Make sure there is a minimum of 1/8tank of fuel.
•Make sure all fluids are at proper levels.
DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTERMANUAL REGENERATIONLIMITATIONS
You cannot use manual regeneration untilthe diesel particulate filter load percentagehas reached 100% or Full. The dieselparticulate filter load percentagefluctuates up and down when driving yourvehicle due to active and passiveregenerations.
If your vehicle is operated with significantstationary operation, low speed drivecycles less than 25 mph (40 km/h), shortdrive cycles, drive time less than 15 minutesor the vehicle does not fully warm up,passive and active regeneration may notsufficiently clean the diesel particulatefilter system.
Aftermarket devices or modifications tothe exhaust system may reduce theeffectiveness of the exhaust system aswell as cause damage to the exhaustsystem or engine. This may also degradevehicle performance and could lead toengine damage that may not be coveredby the vehicle Warranty.
STARTING DIESEL PARTICULATEFILTER MANUAL REGENERATION
Start with your vehicle engine and when ithas reached the normal operatingtemperature, press the information displaycontrol button on the steering wheel. SeeInstrument Cluster Display (page 143).
If the diesel particulate filter is near or atsaturation, a message requestingpermission to initiate filter cleaningappears in the information display. SeeDiesel Particulate Filter – InformationMessages (page 224). Answer yes to thisprompt and then follow the next promptsregarding exhaust position required toinitiate manual regeneration. Be sure tounderstand each prompt. If you are notsure what is being asked by each prompt,contact an authorized dealer. The displayconfirms the operation has started andwhen it has finished. You can also drive toclean the filter.
When the system is at the pointof oversaturation, themalfunction indicator lampilluminates and a message appears in theinformation display. You cannot initiatefilter cleaning. You must have your vehiclechecked as soon as possible.
Once manual regeneration starts, enginespeed increases and the cooling fan speedincreases. You will hear a change in audiblesound due to engine speed and cooling fanspeed increases.
It is not necessary to open the hood on theengine compartment. Once manualregeneration completes, the engine speedreturns to normal idling. The exhaustsystem remains very hot for severalminutes even after regeneration iscomplete. Do not reposition the vehicleover materials that could burn until the

WHAT IS THE SELECTIVE
CATALYTIC REDUCTION
SYSTEM
The selective catalytic reduction systemhelps reduce tailpipe emissions andrequires Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) toconvert nitrogen oxides into nitrogen andwater.
HOW DOES THE SELECTIVE
CATALYTIC REDUCTION
SYSTEM WORK
The selective catalytic reduction systeminjects diesel exhaust fluid into the exhaustsystem to enable correct selective catalyticreduction system function.
The usage of diesel exhaust fluid hasincreased from prior model years in orderto meet more stringent emissionsrequirements. The diesel exhaust fluidusage ranges from approximately 2-6%of fuel burned (100.00 gal (378.54 L) offuel requires approximately 2.00 gal(7.57 L)to 6.00 gal (22.71 L) of dieselexhaust fluid) depending on vehicle usage.Factors that influence diesel exhaust fluidusage may include:
•Payload/Towing
•Driving Style
•Altitude
•Humidity
•Temperature
