DRAINING FUEL/WATER SEPARATOR
F
ILTER — DIESEL ENGINE
The fuel/water separator housing is located inside the left
frame rail in front of the fuel tank. The best access to this
water drain valve is from under the vehicle.
If necessary remove the fuel filter protective cover to
access the water drain valve.

Fuel/Water Separator Filter

If water is detected in the water separator while the engine
is running, or while the ignition switch is in the ON position,
the Water In Fuel Indicator Light will illuminate and an
audible chime will be heard. At this point you should stop
the engine and drain the water from the filter housing.

Fuel/Water Separator Filter

Within 10 minutes of vehicle shutdown, turn the filter
drain valve (located on the bottom of the filter housing)
counterclockwise to drain fuel/water; allow the
accumulated water to drain. Leave the drain valve open
until all water and contaminants have been removed.
When clear fuel is visible, close the drain valve by turning
it clockwise.
Upon proper draining of the water from fuel filter
assembly, the Water In Fuel Indicator Light will remain
illuminated for approximately 10 seconds. If the water was
drained while the engine was running, the Water In Fuel
Indicator Light may remain on for approximately three
minutes.
NOTE:Care should be taken in disposing of used fluids from your
vehicle. Used fluids, indiscriminately discarded, can
present a problem to the environment. Contact an autho-
rized dealer, service station, or government agency for
advice on recycling programs and for where used fluids
and filters can be properly disposed of in your area.
If more than two ounces or 60 ml of fuel have been
drained, follow the directions for Priming If The Engine Has
Run Out Of Fuel
Úpage 323.
FUEL FILTER REPLACEMENT — DIESEL

NGINE
NOTE:Using a fuel filter that does not meet the manufacturer’s
filtration and water separating requirements can severely
impact fuel system life and reliability. We recommend you
use Mopar® Fuel Filter. Must meet 3 micron rating.
CAUTION!
 Do not drain the fuel/water separator filter when the
engine is running.
 Diesel fuel will damage blacktop paving surfaces.
Drain the filter into an appropriate container.

CAUTION!
 Diesel fuel will damage blacktop paving surfaces.
Drain the filter into an appropriate container.
 Do not prefill the fuel filter when installing a new fuel
filter. There is a possibility debris could be introduced
into the fuel filter during this action. It is best to
install the filter dry and allow the in-tank lift pump to
prime the fuel system.8

6. Wipe clean the underside of the filter housing to prevent contamination from entering fuel system
during service.
7. Remove the fuel filter cap and filter from the housing using a socket. Rotate counterclockwise for removal.

10. Lubricate o-ring on the cap with clean engine oil.
11. Install the new fuel filter cartridge onto the cap.
12. Insert the cap and filter into the housing with
clockwise rotation, use a socket to tighten.
13. Push the ignition switch twice without your foot on the brake to place vehicle in RUN position. This will
activate the in tank fuel pump for approximately 30
seconds. Repeat this process twice to prime the fuel
system. Start the engine using the Normal Starting
procedure. After engine start, verify the fuel filter cap
does not leak.
PRIMING IF THE ENGINE HAS RUN OUT
O
F FUEL — DIESEL ENGINE

1. Add a substantial amount of fuel to the tank, approx -
imately 2 to 5 gal (8L to 19L).

2. Push ignition switch twice without your foot on brake to put vehicle in RUN position. This will activate the in
tank fuel pump for approximately 30 seconds.
Repeat this process twice to prime the fuel system.
3. Start the engine using the Normal Starting procedure
Úpage 130.
NOTE:The engine may run rough until the air is forced from all
the fuel lines.
NOTE:
 Use of biodiesel mixture in excess of 20% can nega -
tively impact the fuel filter's ability to separate water
from the fuel, resulting in high pressure fuel system
corrosion or damage.
 In addition, commercially available fuel additives are
not necessary for the proper operation of your diesel
engine.
 For extreme cold conditions, "Mopar® Premium Diesel
Fuel Treatment" is recommended to assist with cold
starting.
INTERVENTION REGENERATION
S
TRATEGY — MESSAGE PROCESS FLOW
This engine meets all required diesel engine emissions
standards. To achieve these emissions standards, your
vehicle is equipped with a state-of-the-art engine and
exhaust system. These systems are seamlessly integrated
into your vehicle and managed by the Powertrain Control
Module (PCM). The PCM manages engine combustion to
allow the exhaust system’s catalyst to trap and burn
Particulate Matter (PM) pollutants, with no input or
interaction on your part.
Additionally, your vehicle has the ability to alert you to
additional maintenance required on your vehicle or
engine.
Refer to Instrument Cluster Display for further information
Úpage 108.
DIESEL EXHAUST FLUID
Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) sometimes known simply by
the name of its active component, UREA—is a key
component of Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR)
systems, which help diesel vehicles meet stringent
emission regulations. DEF is a liquid reducing agent that
WARNING!
Do not open the high pressure fuel system with the
engine running. Engine operation causes high fuel
pressure. High pressure fuel spray can cause serious
injury or death.
CAUTION!
The starter motor will engage for approximately
30 seconds at a time. Allow two minutes between
cranking intervals.
WARNING!
Do not use alcohol or gasoline as a fuel blending agent.
They can be unstable under certain conditions and be
hazardous or explosive when mixed with diesel fuel.
CAUTION!
Due to lack of lubricants in alcohol or gasoline, the use
of these fuels can cause damage to the fuel system.WARNING!
A hot exhaust system can start a fire if you park over
materials that can burn. Such materials might be grass
or leaves coming into contact with your exhaust system.
Do not park or operate your vehicle in areas where your
exhaust system can contact anything that can burn.

8. Rotate the glove compartment door back into
position ensuring you have properly engaged the
travel dampener.

Travel Dampener

For the proper maintenance intervals, see Úpage 307 for
gasoline engines or Úpage 311 for diesel engines.
BODY LUBRICATION
Locks and all body pivot points, including such items as
seat tracks, door hinge pivot points and rollers, liftgate,
tailgate, decklid, sliding doors and hood hinges, should be
lubricated periodically with a lithium based grease, such
as Mopar® Spray White Lube to ensure quiet, easy
operation and to protect against rust and wear. Prior to the
application of any lubricant, the parts concerned should
be wiped clean to remove dust and grit; after lubricating
excess oil and grease should be removed. Particular
attention should also be given to hood latching components to ensure proper function. When performing
other underhood services, the hood latch release
mechanism, and safety catch should be cleaned and
lubricated.
The external lock cylinders should be lubricated twice a
year, preferably in the Fall and Spring. Apply a small
amount of a high quality lubricant, such as Mopar® Lock
Cylinder Lubricant directly into the lock cylinder.
WINDSHIELD WIPER BLADES
Clean the rubber edges of the wiper blades and the
windshield periodically with a sponge or soft cloth and a
mild nonabrasive cleaner. This will remove accumulations
of salt or road film.
Operation of the wipers on dry glass for long periods may
cause deterioration of the wiper blades. Always use
washer fluid when using the wipers to remove salt or dirt
from a dry windshield.
Avoid using the wiper blades to remove frost or ice from
the windshield. Keep the blade rubber out of contact with
petroleum products such as engine oil, gasoline, etc.
NOTE:Life expectancy of wiper blades varies depending on
geographical area and frequency of use. Poor perfor
-
mance of blades may be present with chattering, marks,
water lines or wet spots. If any of these conditions are
present, clean the wiper blades or replace as necessary.
The wiper blades and wiper arms should be inspected
periodically, not just when wiper performance problems
are experienced. This inspection should include the
following points:
 Wear or uneven edges 
Foreign material
 Hardening or cracking
 Deformation or fatigue
If a wiper blade or wiper arm is damaged, replace the
affected wiper arm or blade with a new unit. Do not
attempt to repair a wiper arm or blade that is damaged.
Wiper Blade Removal/Installation

1. Lift the wiper arm to raise the wiper blade off of the glass, until the wiper arm is in the full up position.
