Failure to maintain the functional holes, in the tailpipe section of
the exhaust, clean and free of debris or foreign material may
result in the holes becoming blocked or plugged. Do not modify or
remove the tail-pipe section. Blocked or plugged holes or
removal/modification of the system could result in elevated exhaust gas
temperatures which may result in vehicle/property damage or personal
injury
The normal operating temperature of the exhaust system is very
high. Never work around or attempt to repair any part of the
exhaust system until it has cooled. Use special care when working
around the diesel oxidation catalytic converter and/or the diesel
particulate filter (DPF). The diesel oxidation catalytic converter and/or
the DPF heats up to a high temperature after only a short period of
engine operation and can stay hot even after the engine is turned off.
Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury.
