POWER INVERTERS — IF EQUIPPED
There is a 115 V (400 W) maximum inverter outlet
located on the back of the center console to
convert Direct Current (DC) to Alternating Current
(AC).
This outlet can power cellular phones, electronics
and other low power devices requiring power up to
400 W. Certain video game consoles exceed this
power limit, as will most power tools.
Power Inverter

There may also be a second 115 V (400 W)
maximum exterior power inverter located on the
rear right side of the truck bed near the tailgate.
This inverter can be turned on by the Instrument
Panel Power Inverter switch located to the left of
the steering wheel. This inverter can power cellular
phones, electronics and other low power devices
requiring power up to 400 W. Certain video game
consoles exceed this limit, as will most power
tools. The indicator light on the power inverter
switch will be illuminated when the inverter is
turned on.
CAUTION!
Do not exceed the maximum power of 160 W
(13 A) at 12 Volts. If the 160 W (13 A) power
rating is exceeded, the fuse protecting the
system will need to be replaced.
Power outlets are designed for accessory
plugs only. Do not insert any other object in
the power outlets as this will damage the
outlet and blow the fuse. Improper use of the
power outlet can cause damage not covered
by your New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
Many accessories that can be plugged in draw
power from the vehicle's battery, even when
not in use (i.e., cellular phones, etc.). Eventu -
ally, if plugged in long enough, the vehicle's
battery will discharge sufficiently to degrade
battery life and/or prevent the engine from
starting.
Accessories that draw higher power (i.e.,
coolers, vacuum cleaners, lights, etc.), will
degrade the battery even more quickly. Only
use these intermittently and with greater
caution.
After the use of high power draw accessories,
or long periods of the vehicle not being started
(with accessories still plugged in), the vehicle
must be driven a sufficient length of time to
allow the alternator to recharge the vehicle's
battery.
Power outlets are designed for accessory
plugs only. Do not hang any type of accessory
or accessory bracket from the plug. Improper
use of the power outlet can cause damage.
CAUTION!

STARTING AND OPERATING149
(Continued)
3. The system will automatically engage the
starter to crank the engine. If the vehicle fails
to start, the starter will disengage automat-
ically after 25 seconds.
4. If you wish to stop the cranking of the engine prior to the engine starting, push the ENGINE
START/STOP button again.
5. Check that the Oil Pressure Warning Light has turned off.
6. Release the parking brake.
STARTING FLUIDS
The engine is equipped with a glow plug preheating
system. If the instructions in this manual are
followed, the engine should start in all conditions
and no type of starting fluid should be used.
NORMAL OPERATION — DIESEL ENGINE
Observe the following when the diesel engine is
operating:
All message center lights are off.
Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) is off.
Engine Oil Pressure telltale is not illuminated.
Voltmeter operation.
The voltmeter may show a gauge fluctuation at
various engine temperatures. This is caused by the
glow plug heating system. The number of cycles
and the length of the cycling operation is controlled by the engine control module. Glow plug heater
operation can run for several minutes. Once the
heater operation is complete the voltmeter needle
will stabilize.
COLD WEATHER PRECAUTIONS
Operation in ambient temperature below 32°F
(0°C) may require special considerations. The
following charts suggest these options:
Fuel Operating Range
NOTE:Use Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) Fuels
ONLY.

Fuel Operating Range Chart

*Number 1 ULSD Fuel should only be used where
extended arctic conditions 0°F (-18°C) exist.
WARNING!
Do not leave children or animals inside parked
vehicles in hot weather. Interior heat build-up
may cause serious injury or death.
When leaving the vehicle, always make sure
the keyless ignition node is in the OFF posi -
tion, remove the key fob from the vehicle and
lock the vehicle.
Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle. Allowing chil -
dren to be in a vehicle unattended is
dangerous for a number of reasons. A child or
others could be seriously or fatally injured.
Children should be warned not to touch the
parking brake, brake pedal or the gear
selector.
Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle,
or in a location accessible to children, and do
not leave the ignition of a vehicle equipped
with Keyless Enter ‘n Go™ in the ACC or ON/
RUN position. A child could operate power
windows, other controls, or move the vehicle.
