Diesel Exhaust Fluid Tank
Vehicles that comply with 2013 EPA
emission requirements will have a
Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) tank
mounted to the vehicle frame.
The Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) sys-
tem purges to prevent damage from
freezing. If your vehicle is equipped
with battery disconnect switches, do
NOT disconnect battery power within
two minutes of switching the ignition
key off. Failure to comply may result
in vehicle or property damage.
CAUTION

The DEF
system has a supply
pump lter and this lter should be
serviced according to the preventive
maintenance schedule. Follow these
steps to replace the DEF supply pump
lter:
1. Turn
off the vehicle and allow the
vehicle to cool down. Take special
precaution with hot exhaust piping.
