30 In Brief
Diesel Exhaust Fluid
Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) is used
with diesel engines to reduce the
amount of regulated emissions
produced. The DEF system must be
maintained for the vehicle to run
properly.
DEF is not a fuel additive. For
refilling instructions, seeDiesel
Exhaust Fluid 0189. DEF should
not be mixed with or added to diesel
fuel. DEF freezes when exposed to
temperature below −11 °C (12 ° F).
Locating Diesel Exhaust Fluid
DEF can be purchased at a dealer.
It can also be purchased at
authorized vehicle and truck
dealerships. Additionally, some
diesel truck fueling stations or
retailers may have DEF for
purchase. See Recommended
Fluids and Lubricants 0378. When the remaining level of DEF
becomes excessively low the DEF
gauge will change color from green
to amber. In addition, warning and
indicator lights will come on and
engine power will be reduced so the
vehicle speed will not exceed
89 km/h (55 MPH). See
Diesel
Exhaust Fluid 0189.

Warning Lights,
Gauges, and
Indicators
Warning lights and gauges can
signal that something is wrong
before it becomes serious enough
to cause an expensive repair or
replacement. Paying attention to the
warning lights and gauges could
prevent injury.
Some warning lights come on briefly
when the engine is started to
indicate they are working. When
one of the warning lights comes on
and stays on while driving, or when
one of the gauges shows there may
be a problem, check the section that
explains what to do. Waiting to do
repairs can be costly and even
dangerous.
For safety reasons, do not place
packages, tools, or other items in
the driver ’s area that may restrict
access to the controls or sight of the
gauges.
