Jeep 2014 Grand Cherokee SRT - User Guide - Manual (Page 149)

System Overview
This vehicle is equipped with a Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) injection system and a
Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) catalyst to meet the emission requirements.
The DEF injection system consists of the following components:
• DEF tank
• DEF pump
• DEF injector
• Electronically-heated DEF lines
• NOx sensors
• Temperature sensors
• SCR catalyst
The DEF injection system and SCR catalyst enable the achievement of diesel
emissions requirements; while maintaining outstanding fuel economy, drivability,
torque and power ratings.
NOTE:
• Your vehicle is equipped with a DEF injection system. You may occasionally hear
an audible clicking noise. This is normal operation.
• The DEF pump will run for a period of time after engine shutdown to purge the DEF
system. This is normal operation.
Adding Diesel Exhaust Fluid
The DEF gauge (located in the EVIC) will display the level of DEF remaining in the tank.
Completely fill the DEF tank through the diesel exhaust fluid fill location (located
behind the fuel door) at every maintenance interval or before if prompted by the
Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC).
NOTE:
• The gauge may take up to five seconds
to update after adding a gallon or more
of Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) to the
DEF tank. If you have a fault related to
the DEF system, the gauge may not
update to the new level. See your au-
thorized dealer for service.
• The DEF gauge may also not immedi-
ately update after a refill if the tem-
perature of the DEF fluid is below 12°F
(-11°C). The DEF line heater will pos-
sibly warm up the DEF fluid and allow
the gauge to update after a period of
run time. Under very cold conditions, it is possible that the gauge may not reflect
the new fill level for several drives.
