EMISSION LAW
WARNING: Do not remove or alterthe original equipment floor covering orinsulation between it and the metal floorof the vehicle. The floor covering andinsulation protect occupants of thevehicle from the engine and exhaustsystem heat and noise. On vehicles withno original equipment floor coveringinsulation, do not carry passengers in amanner that permits prolonged skincontact with the metal floor. Failure tofollow these instructions may result infire or personal injury.
U.S. federal laws and certain state lawsprohibit removing or rendering inoperativeemission control system components.Similar federal or provincial laws mayapply in Canada. We do not approve of anyvehicle modification without firstdetermining applicable laws.
Tampering with emissionscontrol systems includingrelated sensors or the DieselExhaust Fluid system can result in reducedengine power and the illumination of theservice engine soon light.
Tampering With a Noise ControlSystem
Federal laws prohibit the following acts:
•Removal or rendering inoperative byany person other than for purposes ofmaintenance.
•Repair or replacement of any device orelement of the design incorporated intoa new vehicle for the purpose of noisecontrol prior to its sale or delivery tothe ultimate purchaser or while it is inuse.
•The use of the vehicle after any personremoves or renders inoperative anydevice or element of the design.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agencymay presume to constitute tampering asfollows:
•Removal of hood blanket, fender apronabsorbers, fender apron barriers,underbody noise shields or acousticallyabsorptive material.
•Tampering or rendering inoperative theengine speed governor, to allow enginespeed to exceed manufacturerspecifications.
If the engine does not start, runs rough,experiences a decrease in engineperformance, experiences excess fuelconsumption or produces excessiveexhaust smoke, check for the following:
•A plugged or disconnected air inletsystem hose.
•A plugged engine air filter element.
•Water in the fuel filter and waterseparator.

4.After the DPF Service Regenerationprocedure completes:
•If the vehicle’s soot level is at anacceptable level, close the hood.The vehicle is ready to be driven.
•If the vehicle’s soot level remainshigher than desired, let the vehicleidle for a minimum of 30 minutes(hood remains fully open). Afterthe 30 minutes have passed,initiate the second DPFregeneration procedure. It is veryunlikely that more than 2regeneration cycles will be required,but if additional cycles arenecessary, allow for a 30-minutevehicle idle (hood up) to occurbetween regeneration cycles.
5.Once all DPF regeneration cycles arecomplete, close the hood. The vehicleis ready to be driven.
Operator Commanded RegenerationPrecautions and Safe Exhaust Position
WARNING: Do not park or idle yourvehicle over dry leaves, dry grass or othercombustible materials. The regenerationprocess creates very high exhaust gastemperatures and the exhaust willradiate a considerable amount of heatduring and after regeneration and afteryou have switched the engine off. This isa potential fire hazard.
WARNING: Stay clear of theexhaust tailpipe during regeneration. Hotexhaust gases can burn you badly.
Make sure that the louvers located at thetip of the exhaust are clear of anyobstructions as they are used to introducefresh air into the tailpipe to cool theexhaust gases as they leave the exhaustsystem.
Before you start operator commandedregeneration, do the following:
•Shift into park (P) or if you have anRNDM selector shift into neutral (N)and apply the parking and or air brake,on stable, level ground.
•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.
How to Start Operator CommandedRegeneration
WARNING: Stay clear of theexhaust tailpipe during regeneration. Hotexhaust gases can burn you badly.
Note:You cannot use the operatorcommanded regeneration until the dieselparticulate filter load percentage hasreached 100%. The diesel particulate filterload percentage fluctuates up and downwhen driving your vehicle due to active andpassive regenerations.
Note:During the use of operatorcommanded regeneration, you may observea light amount of white smoke. This isnormal.
You may not be able to useoperator commandedregeneration if the service enginesoon warning lamp appears in theinformation display

Information Display Procedure
Start your vehicle engine and when it hasreached the normal operating temperature,arrow through the display to get to theDiesel Particulate Filter Status on theTruck Info tab. Exhaust Filter XX%/FULLdisplays. Operator commandedregeneration can only be initiated whenFULL See Information Display Control(page 53). If a message advising that theexhaust filter is full appears in theinformation display, press and hold the OKbutton to initiate Exhaust Cleaning. Ifsuccessful, a second prompt appearsregarding exhaust position required toinitiate operator commanded regeneration.Be sure to understand each prompt. If youare not sure what is being asked by eachprompt, contact an authorized dealer. Ifthe exhaust system meets the positionrequirements then press and hold the OKbutton to fully activate the OperatorCommanded Regeneration. The displayconfirms the operation has started andwhen it has finished.
You can also drive to clean the filter.
When the system is at the pointof oversaturation, the serviceengine warning lamp illuminatesand a message appears in the informationdisplay. You cannot initiate filter cleaning.You must have your vehicle checked assoon as possible.
Once operator commanded regenerationstarts, engine speed increases toapproximately 1200 rpm and the coolingfan speed may increase. You will hear achange in audible sound due to enginespeed and cooling fan speed increases.
It is not necessary to open the hood on theengine compartment. Once operatorcommanded regeneration completes, theengine speed returns to normal idling. Theexhaust system remains very hot forseveral minutes even after regeneration is
complete. Do not reposition the vehicleover materials that could burn until theexhaust system has had sufficient time tocool. Depending on the amount of sootcollected by the diesel particulate filter,ambient temperature and altitude,operator commanded regeneration lastsapproximately 30 minutes.
Operator Commanded Regenerationwith Automatic Regeneration Control(If Equipped)
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. You can switch off automaticregeneration until better driving conditionsare available, for example steady highspeed driving. You can then switchautomatic regeneration back on to cleanthe diesel particulate filter.
Switching Automatic RegenerationControl On and Off
To switch operator commandedregeneration on and off, use theinformation display control on the steeringwheel. See Information Display Control(page 53). Scroll through the Settings tabto ensure there is a check in the box nextto Auto Regeneration, this means it isactive. To deactivate Auto Regeneration,uncheck the box. A message appears “AutoExhaust Cleaning Off” along with an iconindicating that Auto Exhaust Cleaning isdisabled. The icon stays illuminated untilyou switch Auto Exhaust Cleaning back onby checking the box.
