CAUTION
Your vehicle may require more frequent
maintenance if it operates on biodiesel
blends between 6% and 10% (B6 and B10) .
To avoid damage to your vehicle, the oil,
oil filter, and fuel filter will need to be
replaced after a shorter time interval than
if your vehicle was operating on pure
petroleum-based diesel. For additional in-
formation, refer to the “Maintenance” sec-
tion in the “Titan Owner’s Manual.”
CHECKING ENGINE OIL LEVEL
NOTE:
The factory fill oil may include a red dye
that is added for manufacturing quality pro-
cesses. The dye makes the oil appear to be
red. This is normal. The red dye will be
flushed from the engine after approxi-
mately 4–5 oil changes.1. Park the vehicle on a level surface and apply the parking brake.
2. Start the engine and let it idle until it reaches operating temperature. 3. Turn off the engine.
Wait more than
10 minutes for the oil to drain back into
the oil pan.
4. Remove the dipstick and wipe it clean. Re- insert it all the way.

5. Remove the dipstick again and check the oillevel. It should be between the high and low
marks
B. This is the normal operating oil
level range. If the oil level is below the low
mark
A, remove the oil filler cap and pour
recommended oil through the opening. Do
not overfill
C.
6. Recheck oil level with the dipstick.
It is normal to add some oil between oil
maintenance intervals or during the
break-in period, depending on the severity
of operating conditions.

– Wear appropriate eye protection andprotective equipment as high-
pressure fuel spray can penetrate the
skin.
– Never smoke or allow sparks or flames (such as pilot lights, electrical
switches, or welding equipment) in
the work area. Never allow diesel fuel
to spill onto a hot exhaust manifold
which can cause a fire.
● Batteries can emit explosive gases. To
reduce the possibility of personal injury,
always ventilate the compartment be-
fore servicing the batteries. To reduce
the possibility of arcing, remove the
negative (-) battery cable first and at-
tach the negative (-) battery cable last.
● When using a steam cleaner, wear
safety glasses or a face shield, as well
as protective clothing. Hot steam can
cause serious personal injury.
● Wear appropriate eye and face protec-
tion when using compressed air. Flying
debris and dirt can cause personal
injury.
