GETTING TO KNOW YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL129
Your vehicle has the ability to alert you to
additional maintenance required on your vehicle or
engine. Refer to the following messages that may
be displayed on your instrument cluster display:
Exhaust Filter Nearing Full Safely Drive at
Consistent Speeds to Clear — This message will
be displayed if the exhaust particulate filter
reaches 80% of its maximum storage capacity.
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. 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 DPF is self-cleaning. Maintain your current
driving condition until regeneration is
completed.
Exhaust System — Regeneration Completed —
This message indicates that the DPF
self-cleaning is completed. If this message is
displayed, you will hear one chime to assist in
alerting you of this condition.
Exhaust System Service Required —
See Dealer — This message indicates regenera -
tion has been disabled due to a system malfunc -
tion. At this point the engine Powertrain Control
Module (PCM) will register a fault code, the
instrument panel will display a Malfunction Indi -
cator Light (MIL) light.
Exhaust Filter Full — Power Reduced
See Dealer — This message indicates the PCM
has derated the engine to limit the likelihood of
permanent damage to the after-treatment
system. If this condition is not corrected and a
dealer service is not performed, extensive
exhaust after-treatment damage can occur. To
correct this condition it will be necessary to have
your vehicle serviced by an authorized dealer.
NOTE:Failing to follow the oil change indicator, changing
your oil and resetting the oil change indicator by
0 miles (0 kilometers) remaining will prevent the
diesel exhaust filter from performing its cleaning
routine. This will shortly result in a Malfunction
Indicator Light (MIL) and reduced engine power.
Only an authorized dealer will be able to correct
this condition.
CAUTION!
See an authorized dealer, as damage to the
exhaust system could occur soon with continued
operation.CAUTION!
See an authorized dealer, as damage to the
exhaust system could occur soon with continued
operation.

SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE
SCHEDULED SERVICING — GASOLINE
ENGINE
Your vehicle is equipped with an automatic oil
change indicator system. The oil change indicator
system will remind you that it is time to take your
vehicle in for scheduled maintenance.
Based on engine operation conditions, the oil
change indicator message will illuminate. This
means that service is required for your vehicle.
Operating conditions such as frequent short-trips,
trailer tow, or extremely hot or cold ambient
temperatures will influence when the “Change Oil”
or “Oil Change Required” message is displayed.
Have your vehicle serviced as soon as possible,
within the next 500 miles (805 km).
On vehicles equipped with an instrument cluster
display, “Oil Change Required” will be displayed
and a single chime will sound, indicating that an oil
change is necessary. On vehicles not equipped with an instrument
cluster display, “Change Oil” will flash in the
instrument cluster odometer and a single chime
will sound, indicating that an oil change is
necessary.
An authorized dealer will reset the oil change
indicator message after completing the scheduled
oil change. To reset the system follow the steps
described Ú
page 122.
NOTE:Under no circumstances should oil change
intervals exceed 10,000 miles (16,000 km),
12 months or 350 hours of engine run time,
whichever comes first. The 350 hours of engine
run or idle time is generally only a concern for fleet
customers. Once A Month Or Before A Long Trip:
Check engine oil level.
Check windshield washer fluid level.
Check the tire pressures and look for unusual
wear or damage, rotate at the first sign of irreg
-
ular wear.
Check the fluid levels of the coolant reservoir,
brake master cylinder, and power steering, and
fill as needed.
Check function of all interior and exterior lights.

Engine Oil Filter Replacement
Residual oil in the housing may spill from the
housing when the new filter is installed if the
residual oil is not either removed from the housing
or enough time has not elapsed to allow the oil to
drain back into the engine. When servicing the oil
filter on this engine, open the filter cap
approximately six turns until the cap o-ring is
visible and stop. Wait five minutes with the cap in
this position to allow dirty engine oil to drain back
into the engine. After five minutes, the cap and
filter assembly can be removed and discarded. Once A Month Or Before A Long Trip:Check engine oil level
Check windshield washer fluid level
Check the tire pressures and look for unusual
wear or damage
Check the fluid levels of the coolant reservoir,
brake master cylinder, and fill as needed
