of the same size, type, and/or style. After-

— Low Fuel Indicator Light
When the fuel level reaches approximately
3.0 gal (11.0 L) this light will turn on, and
remain on until fuel is added.
— Anti-Lock Brake (ABS) Warning
Light
This light monitors the Anti-Lock Brake Sys-
tem (ABS). The light will turn on when the
ignition is placed in the ON/RUN or ACC/ON/
RUN position and may stay on for as long as
four seconds. If the ABS light remains on or turns on while
driving, then the Anti-Lock portion of the
brake system is not functioning and service is
required as soon as possible. However, the
conventional brake system will continue to
operate normally, assuming the Brake Warn-
ing Light is not also on.
If the ABS light does not turn on when the
ignition is placed in the ON/RUN or ACC/ON/
RUN position, have the brake system in-
spected by an authorized dealer.
— Low Coolant Level Warning Light
This telltale will turn on to indicate the ve-
hicle coolant level is low.
— Loose Fuel Filler Cap Warning Light
— If Equipped
This light will illuminate when the fuel filler
cap is loose. Properly close the filler cap to
disengage the light. If the light does not turn
off, please see your authorized dealer.
SERV4WD— Service 4WD Warning Light — If
Equipped
If the light stays on or comes on during driving,
it means that the 4WD system is not functioning
properly and that service is required. We recom-
mend you drive to the nearest service center and
have the vehicle serviced immediately.
— Transmission Temperature Warning
Light
This light indicates that the transmission
fluid temperature is running hot. This may
occur with severe usage, such as trailer tow-
ing. If this light turns on, safely pull over and
stop the vehicle. Then, shift the transmission
into PARK and run the engine at idle or
slightly higher until the light turns off.
WARNING!
If you continue operating the vehicle when
the Transmission Temperature Warning
Light is illuminated you could cause the
fluid to boil over, come in contact with hot
engine or exhaust components and cause a
fire.

Priming If The Engine Has Run Out
Of Fuel
WARNING!
Do not open the high pressure fuel system
with the engine running. Engine operation
causes high fuel pressure. High pressure
WARNING!
fuel spray can cause serious injury or
death.
1. Add a substantial amount of fuel to the tank, approximately 2 to 5 gal (8L to
19L).
2. Press ignition switch twice without your foot on brake to put vehicle in Run posi-
tion. This will activate the in tank fuel
pump for approximately 30 seconds. Re-
peat this process twice.
3. Start the engine using the “Normal Start- ing” procedure. Refer to “Starting The
Engine” in “Starting and Operating” for
further information.
CAUTION!
The starter motor will engage for approxi-
mately 30 seconds at a time. Allow two
minutes between cranking intervals.
NOTE:
The engine may run rough until the air is
forced from all the fuel lines.
WARNING!
Do not use alcohol or gasoline as a fuel
blending agent. They can be unstable un-
der 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.
NOTE:
• Use of biodiesel mixture in excess of 20% can negatively impact the fuel filter's abil-
ity to separate water from the fuel, resulting
in high pressure fuel system corrosion or
damage.
• In addition, commercially available fuel ad- ditives are not necessary for the proper
operation of your diesel engine.
• For extreme cold conditions, "Mopar Pre- mium Diesel Fuel Treatment" is recom-
mended to assist with cold starting.
