CAUTION!
Due to lack of lubricants in alcohol or gasoline, the
use of these fuels can cause damage to the fuel
system.
NOTE:
• We recommend you use a blend of up to 5% biodiesel,
that meets ASTM specification D-975 with your diesel
engine. Use of biodiesel mixture in excess of 20% can
negatively 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.

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 Con-
trol Module (PCM). The PCM manages engine combus-
tion 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 en-
gine.
Refer to “Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)”
in “Understanding Your Instrument Panel” for further
information.
