Filling the Fuel Tank
For consistent results when refueling:
•
Turn the ignition off before fueling; an
inaccurate reading results if the engine
is left running.
• Use the same fill rate
(low-medium-high) each time the tank
is filled.
• Allow no more than one automatic
shut-off when refueling.
Results are most accurate when the filling
method is consistent.
Calculating Fuel Economy
Your vehicle calculates fuel economy
figures through the trip computer average
fuel function. See Information Displays
(page 97).
The first
1,000 mi (1,500 km) of driving is
the break-in period of the engine. A more
accurate measurement is obtained after
2,000 mi (3,000 km)
.
1. Completely fill the fuel tank and record
the initial odometer reading.
See
Refueling (page 136).
2. Each time you fill the fuel tank, record the amount of fuel added.
3. After at least three fill ups, fill the fuel tank and record the current odometer
reading.
4. Subtract your initial odometer reading from the current odometer reading.
To calculate L/100 km (liters per 100
kilometers) fuel consumption, multiply the
liters used by 100, then divide by kilometers
traveled. To calculate MPG (miles per
gallon) fuel consumption, divide miles
traveled by gallons used. Keep a record for at least one month and
record the type of driving, for example city
or highway. This provides an accurate
estimate of your vehicle
’s fuel economy
under current driving conditions. Keeping
records during summer and winter shows
how temperature impacts fuel economy.
Conditions
• Heavily loading your vehicle reduces
fuel economy.
• Carrying unnecessary weight in your
vehicle may reduce fuel economy.
• Avoid adding accessories that increase
aerodynamic drag to your vehicle such
as bug deflectors, car top carriers and
ski or bike racks.
• Using fuel blended with alcohol may
lower fuel economy.
• Fuel economy may decrease with lower
temperatures.
• Fuel economy may decrease when
driving short distances.
• You will get better fuel economy when
driving on flat terrain than when driving
on hilly terrain.

3. Remove the diesel exhaust fluid tank
filler cap.
4. Insert the spout into the diesel exhaust
fluid tank filler pipe until the seal on the
spout fully seats.
5. Pour the fluid into the tank.
Note: The fluid stops flowing when the
tank is full.
6. Return the container to the vertical position slightly below the diesel
exhaust fluid tank filler pipe.
7. Allow any fluid remaining in the spout to drain back into the container.
8. Remove the spout from the diesel exhaust fluid tank filler pipe.
9. Remove the spout from the diesel exhaust fluid container and replace the
cap.
10. Replace the diesel exhaust fluid tank
filler cap. Turn it clockwise until you
feel a strong resistance. Do not attempt to start the engine if you
have filled the diesel exhaust fluid tank
with incorrect fluid. Incorrect diesel
exhaust fluid use could cause damage not
covered by the vehicle Warranty. Have your
vehicle immediately checked.
Selective Catalytic Reductant
System Warning Lamp
The warning lamp illuminates if
the system detects the diesel
exhaust fluid level is low or if
there is a system malfunction.
If the warning lamp illuminates, the
information display messages give you an
indication whether the concern is fluid
related or if there is a selective catalytic
reductant system malfunction. If the
warning lamp illuminates when your
vehicle is moving, and the fluid is at a
sufficient level, this indicates a system
malfunction. Have your vehicle checked
as soon as possible.
Note: When filling the diesel exhaust fluid
tank from empty, there may be a short
period before the increased diesel exhaust
fluid level is registered.
DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER
- 3.2L DIESEL WARNING: 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.

2019 Transit (TTH) Canada/United States of America, Vehicles Built From: 02-01-2019, KK3J 19A321 AB enUSA, Edition date: 201812, First-Printing Engine Emission ControlE144358

particulate filter. The diesel oxidation
catalytic converter and the diesel
particulate filter heat up to very high
temperatures after only a short period
of engine operation and remain hot after
you switch the engine off.
The diesel particulate filter on your vehicle
requires periodic regeneration to maintain
correct operation. The emission control
system automatically carries out this
process. As soot gathers in the system it
begins to restrict the filter. The soot that
gathers inside the filter is cleaned in two
different ways, passive regeneration and
active regeneration. Both methods occur
automatically and require no actions from
the driver. During automatic regeneration,
the system cleans the diesel particulate
filter by oxidizing the soot. Cleaning
happens during normal engine operating
conditions at varying levels depending on
driving conditions. Diesel particulate filter warning
lamp.
If the diesel particulate filter is near or at
saturation, a warning lamp or information
message appears in the information
display. Drive your vehicle in a manner to
allow effective diesel particulate filter
cleaning.
The warning lamp continues to illuminate
until the automatic regeneration process
completes. Continue to drive your vehicle
in a manner to allow effective diesel
particulate filter cleaning until the warning
lamp turns off.
Failure to carry out regeneration when
required could result in a clogged diesel
particulate filter. If the diesel particulate
filter fills beyond the regeneration
threshold, the system disables the ability
to carry out regeneration. This could result
in damage not covered by the vehicle
Warranty. Where vehicle use meets any of the
following conditions:
•
Driving short distances.
• Prolonged engine idling.
• Frequently switching the engine on and
off.
• High levels of acceleration and
deceleration.
We recommend you assist the
regeneration process by:
• Avoiding prolonged engine idling.
• Drive your vehicle in a manner to allow
effective cleaning. Drive at a steady
vehicle speed of 30 mph (48 km/h) or
above for approximately 20 minutes. If the warning lamp illuminates
the diesel particulate filter could
have become overloaded. Have
your vehicle checked as soon as possible.
Automatic regeneration raises the exhaust
temperature to eliminate the soot
particles. During cleaning soot particles are
converted to harmless gasses. Once
cleaned the diesel particulate filter
continues to trap harmful diesel particles.
If you are driving your vehicle in a manner
that allows effective cleaning, a message
may appear in the information display to
indicate automatic regeneration is in
progress.
If you are not driving your vehicle in a
manner that allows effective cleaning, a
message may appear in the information
display to instruct you to drive in a manner
that allows automatic regeneration.

Use the manual regeneration feature
when:
•
You are not able to drive in a manner
that allows effective automatic
cleaning. See Diesel Particulate
Filter Automatic Regeneration.
• You choose to manually start the
regeneration process when the engine
is idling.
Note: Changes in the engine or exhaust
sound may be heard during the regeneration
process.
Note: During regeneration at low speed or
engine idle, you may smell a hot metallic
odor and could notice a clicking metallic
sound. This is due to the high temperatures
reached during the regeneration process.
This is normal. Starting Manual Regeneration
You can only start manual regeneration
with the engine running at normal
operating temperature using the
information display. See Information
Messages (page 101).
Note: During the use of manual
regeneration, you may observe a light
amount of white smoke. This is normal.
Note: If you press any pedal during manual
regeneration the engine may turn off. To
protect the exhaust system you may not be
able to restart the engine for 10 minutes. If a warning illuminates you may
not be able to start manual
regeneration.

Transmission (If Equipped)
Your vehicle is equipped with a SelectShift
Automatic transmission selector lever. The
SelectShift Automatic transmission gives
you the ability to change gears up or down
(without a clutch) as desired.
In order to prevent the engine from running
at too low an RPM, which may cause it to
stall, SelectShift still automatically makes
some downshifts if it has determined that
you have not downshifted in time.
Although SelectShift makes some
downshifts for you, it still allows you to
downshift at any time as long as the
SelectShift determines that damage will
not be caused to the engine from
over-revving.
Note: Engine damage may occur if you
maintain excessive engine revving without
shifting.
SelectShift does not automatically upshift,
even if the engine is approaching the RPM
limit. It must be shifted manually by
pressing the + button.
• Press the (+) button to upshift.
• Press the (-) button to downshift. The system determines when temporary
manual control is no longer in use and
returns to automatic control. The
instrument cluster displays your currently
selected gear.
Note:
The system stays in manual control
until you make another shift selection (for
example, drive [D]).
Brake-Shift Interlock WARNING:
Do not drive your
vehicle until you verify that the
stoplamps are working. WARNING:
When doing this
procedure, you need to take the
transmission out of park (P) which
means your vehicle can roll freely. To
avoid unwanted vehicle movement,
always fully apply the parking brake prior
to doing this procedure. Use wheels
chocks if appropriate. WARNING:
If the parking brake is
fully released, but the brake warning
lamp remains illuminated, the brakes
may not be working properly. Have your
vehicle checked as soon as possible.
