Brake support: Helps reduce the impactspeed by preparing the brakes for rapidbraking. The system does notautomatically apply the brakes. If you pressthe brake pedal, the system could applyadditional braking up to maximum brakingforce, even if you lightly press the brakepedal.
Active braking: May activate if the systemdetermines that a collision is imminent.The system may help the driver reduceimpact damage or avoid the crashcompletely.
Note:If you perceive pre-collision assistalerts as being too frequent, then you canreduce the alert sensitivity, though themanufacturer recommends using thehighest sensitivity setting where possible.Setting lower sensitivity would lead to fewerand later system warnings.
Distance Indication and Alert
Provides the driver with a graphicalindication of the time gap to otherpreceding vehicles traveling in the samedirection. The distance indication and alertscreen in the instrument cluster displayshows one of the following graphics.
If the time gap to a preceding vehicle issmall, a red visual indication displays.
Adjusting the Pre-Collision AssistSettings
You can adjust the following settings byusing the instrument cluster displaycontrols. See General Information (page71).
•You can change alert and distancealert sensitivity to one of three possiblesettings.
•You can switch distance indication andalert on or off.
•If required, you can switch activebraking on or off.
•If required, you can switch the entirepre-collision assist feature on or off.

CHANGING THE ENGINE AIR
FILTER - 6.7L DIESEL
Air Filter Restriction Gauge
WARNING: To reduce the risk ofvehicle damage and personal burninjuries, do not start your engine with theair cleaner removed and do not removeit while the engine is running.
Note:Operating your vehicle in heavysnowfall or extreme rain conditions mayallow excessive amounts of snow or waterinto the air intake system. This could plugor soak the air filter and cause the engine tolose power or shut down.
The restriction gauge, on the upper housingof the air filter assembly, measures thevacuum inside the air filter. The more theair filter is dirty or clogged, the higher thevacuum reading.
Check the air filter restriction gaugewhenever you open the hood to performgeneral engine maintenance or at leastevery 7,500 mi (12,000 km). If you operateyour vehicle in extremely dusty conditions,check and reset the gauge at least every500 mi (800 km), or two weeks, whichevercomes first. Change the air filter when therestriction gauge reads near the changefilter line and the gauge is yellow. If youallow the restriction gauge to reachmaximum restriction, you can affect yourengine performance and fuel economy.
Note:Do not blow out the air filter elementwith compressed air since the compressedair could damage the filter paper.
Note:Do not rely on filter appearancealone. A filter which appears to be dirty mayhave several thousand miles (kilometers)of life remaining.
After installation of the new filter element,reset the gauge by pressing the resetbutton on top of the gauge.

Severe Climates
If you drive in extremely cold climates:
•It may be necessary to increase thecoolant concentration above 50%.
•A coolant concentration of 60%provides improved freeze pointprotection.Coolant concentrationsabove 60% decrease the overheatprotection characteristics of thecoolant and may cause enginedamage.
If you drive in extremely hot climates:
•You can decrease the coolantconcentration to 40%.
•Coolant concentrations below 40%decrease the freeze and corrosionprotection characteristics of thecoolant and may cause enginedamage.
Vehicles driven year-round in non-extremeclimates should use prediluted enginecoolant for optimum cooling system andengine protection.
Coolant Change
At specific mileage intervals, as listed inthe scheduled maintenance information,the coolant should be changed. Theinstrument cluster display may display amessage to change coolant at this time.Add prediluted coolant approved to thecorrect specification. See Capacities andSpecifications (page 291).
Engine-driven Cooling Fan (FanClutch)
Your vehicle may have an engine drivencooling fan drive (also called a fan clutch).This fan drive changes the fan speed tomatch the vehicle’s changing cooling airflow requirements. Fan speed, fan noiselevel and fuel consumption all increasebased on the driving conditions thatinclude trailer towing, hill climbing, heavyloads, high speed and high ambienttemperature, individually or in combination.
The fan drive is designed to provide theminimum fan speed (and resultingminimum fan noise and fuel consumption)required to meet the ever changing vehiclecooling air flow requirements. You can hearfan noise increasing and decreasing as theengine power requirements and vehicledriving conditions change as you drive. Thisis to be expected as being normal to theoperation of your vehicle. High levels of fannoise might also be heard when yourengine is first started, and should normallydecrease after driving for a short time.
ENGINE COOLANT CHECK -
7.3L
WARNING: Do not remove thecoolant reservoir cap when the engine ison or the cooling system is hot. Wait 10minutes for the cooling system to cooldown. Cover the coolant reservoir capwith a thick cloth to prevent thepossibility of scalding and slowly removethe cap. Failure to follow this instructioncould result in personal injury.
WARNING: Do not put coolant inthe windshield washer reservoir. Ifsprayed on the windshield, coolant couldmake it difficult to see through thewindshield.
