Adaptive Steering (If Equipped)
The adaptive steering system
indicator illuminates if the
system detects a fault during the
continuous diagnostic checks.
Adaptive Steering Initialization (yellow,
flashing): The adaptive steering system
has detected a difference between
steering wheel angle and the desired road
wheel angle. The steering wheel adjusts
itself to correct this difference. This
adjustment is part of normal system
operation.
Adaptive Steering Off (yellow, solid): The
adaptive steering system is off. It is
possible that the steering wheel may not
be straight when the vehicle is driving
straight ahead. If this message persists,
see an authorized dealer.
Adaptive Steering Loss (red, solid): The
adaptive steering system integrity cannot
be verified. Do not drive the vehicle and
contact an authorized dealer immediately.
See
Steering (page 261).
Anti-Lock Braking System It illuminates momentarily when
you switch on the ignition to
confirm that the lamp is
functional. If it does not illuminate when
you switch on the ignition or begins to flash
at anytime, have the system checked as
soon as possible.
If it illuminates when you are driving, this
indicates a malfunction. You will continue
to have the normal braking system
(without ABS) unless the brake system
warning lamp is also illuminated. Have the
system checked as soon as possible. Automatic High Beam
(If Equipped) Illuminates when this feature is
on. See
Automatic High Beam
Control (page 92).
Battery If it illuminates while driving, it
indicates a malfunction. Switch
off all unnecessary electrical
equipment and have the system checked
by your authorized dealer immediately.
Brake System WARNING
Driving your vehicle with the warning
lamp on is dangerous. A significant
decrease in braking performance
may occur. It may take you longer to stop
your vehicle. Have your vehicle checked as
soon as possible. Driving extended
distances with the parking brake engaged
can cause brake failure and the risk of
personal injury. It illuminates momentarily when
you switch on the ignition to
confirm that the lamp is
functional. If it does not illuminate when
you switch on the ignition or begins to flash
at anytime, have the system checked as
soon as possible.
Illuminates when you engage the parking
brake with the ignition on.
If it illuminates when you are driving, check
that the parking brake is not engaged. If
the parking brake is not engaged, this
indicates low brake fluid level or a brake
system malfunction. Have the system
checked as soon as possible.

4X4 LOW (If Equipped)
Illuminates when four-wheel
drive low is engaged. If the light
fails to display when the ignition
is turned on, or remains on, have the
system serviced immediately by your
authorized dealer.
4X4 HIGH
(If Equipped) Illuminates when four-wheel
drive high is engaged. If the light
fails to display when the ignition
is turned on, or remains on, have the
system serviced immediately by your
authorized dealer.
Diesel Engine Brake
(If Equipped) Illuminates when you switch the
manual engine brake on. See
General Information
(page
227). Illuminates when you switch the
automatic engine brake on. See
General Information
(page
227).
Diesel Exhaust Fluid
(If Equipped) With the key in the on position,
illuminates when the DEF is
contaminated, low or someone
has tampered with the DEF system. See
Selective Catalytic Reductant System
(page
200).
Wait To Start
(If Equipped) Illuminates when you switch the
ignition on as part of the
pre-start system. Wait until the
wait to start indicator turns off before
attempting to start vehicle. See
Starting
a Diesel Engine (page 180). Water In Fuel
(If Equipped) WARNING
Do not drain the water-in-fuel
separator while the engine is running.
Failure to follow this warning may
result in fire, serious injury, death or
property damage. During refueling, it is possible for
you to pump
water-contaminated diesel fuel
into your fuel tank. Your vehicle ’s fuel
system is equipped with a fuel filter and
water separator to remove water from the
fuel. The water in fuel indicator lights when
the fuel and water separator has a
significant quantity of water in it and
requires immediate draining.
If the water in fuel indicator illuminates
when the engine is running, stop your
vehicle as soon as safely possible, shut off
the engine, then drain the fuel and water
separator. See
Fuel Quality (page 189).
Allowing water to stay in the fuel system,
after the water in fuel indicator illuminates,
could result in extensive damage or failure
of the fuel injection system.
Note: Do not drain the fuel and water
separator while the engine is running. Air will
enter into the fuel system causing the engine
not to operate properly.
AUDIBLE WARNINGS AND
INDICATORS
Headlamps On Warning Chime
Sounds when you remove the key from the
ignition and open the driver's door and you
have left the headlamps or parking lamps
on.

Operator Commanded Regeneration
Precautions and Safe Exhaust Position
WARNINGS
Do not park or idle your vehicle over
dry leaves, dry grass or other
combustible materials. The
regeneration process creates very high
exhaust gas temperatures and the exhaust
will radiate a considerable amount of heat
during and after regeneration and after you
have switched the engine off. This is a
potential fire hazard. Stay clear of the exhaust tailpipe
during regeneration. Hot exhaust
gases can burn you badly.
Make sure that the louvers located at the
tip of the exhaust are clear of any
obstructions as they are used to introduce
fresh air into the tailpipe to cool the
exhaust gases as they leave the exhaust
system.
Before you start operator commanded
regeneration, do the following:
•
Shift into park (P) and apply the
parking brake, on stable, level ground.
• Park your vehicle outside of any
structure.
• Park your vehicle 10– 15 ft (3–5 m)
away from any obstructions and away
from materials that can easily combust
or melt, for example paper, leaves,
petroleum products, fuels, plastics and
other dry organic material.
• Make sure there is a minimum of 1/8
tank of fuel.
• Make sure all fluids are at proper levels. How to Start Operator Commanded
Regeneration WARNING
Stay clear of the exhaust tailpipe
during regeneration. Hot exhaust
gases can burn you badly.
Note:
You cannot use the operator
commanded regeneration until the diesel
particulate filter load percentage has
reached 100%. The diesel particulate filter
load percentage fluctuates up and down
when driving your vehicle due to active and
passive regenerations.
Note: During the use of operator
commanded regeneration, you may observe
a light amount of white smoke. This is
normal. You may not be able to use
operator commanded
regeneration if the service engine
soon warning lamp appears in the
information display
Information Display Procedure
Start with your vehicle engine and when it
has reached the normal operating
temperature, press the information display
control button on the steering wheel. See
Information Display Control (page 85).
If a message advising that the exhaust
filter is full appears in the information
display, press the OK button as instructed.
Answer yes to this prompt and then follow
the next prompts regarding the exhaust
position required to initiate operator
commanded regeneration. Be sure to
understand each prompt. If you are not
sure what is being asked by each prompt,
contact an authorized dealer. The display
confirms the operation has started and
when it has finished.
