Fuel Selection

Use good quality diesel fuel from a repu-

table supplier in your vehicle. Federal law

requires that you must fuel this vehicle

with Ultra Low Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel

(15 ppm Sulfur maximum) and prohibits

the use of Low Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel

(500 ppm Sulfur maximum) to avoid dam-

age to the emissions control system. For

most year-round service, No. 2 diesel fuel

meeting ASTM specification D-975 Grade

S15 will provide good performance. We

recommend you use a blend of up to 5%

biodiesel, meeting ASTM specification

D-975 with your diesel engine.

This vehicle

is compatible with biodiesel blends greater
than 5% but no greater than 20% biodiesel
meeting ASTM specification D-7467 pro-
vided the shortened maintenance intervals
are followed as directed.

Diesel Exhaust Fluid

MOPAR

®

Diesel Exhaust Fluid (API Certi-

fied) (DEF) or equivalent that has been API

Certified to the ISO 22241 standard. Use

of fluids not API Certified to ISO 22241

may result in system damage.

NOTE:
If the vehicle is exposed to extreme cold (below 20°F or -7°C), or is required to
operate at colder-than-normal conditions for prolonged periods, use climatized No. 2
diesel fuel or dilute the No. 2 diesel fuel with 50% No. 1 diesel fuel. This will provide
better protection from fuel gelling or wax-plugging of the fuel filter.
