DEF tank from overfilling, do not “top off” the DEF

tank after filling.

CAUTION!

(Continued)

DO NOT OVERFILL. DEF will freeze below 12 de-

grees F (-11 degrees C). The DEF system is designed

to work in temperatures below the DEF freezing

point, however, if the tank is overfilled and freezes,

the system could be damaged.

When DEF is spilled, clean the area immediately

with water or use an absorbent material to soak up

and spills on the ground.

Do not attempt to start your engine if DEF is acci-

dentally added to the diesel fuel tank as it can result

in severe damage to your engine, including but not

limited to failure of the fuel pump and injectors.

3. Stop filling the DEF tank immediately when any of the

following happen: DEF stops flowing from the fill

bottle into the DEF tank, DEF splashes out the filler

neck, or a DEF pump nozzle automatically shuts off.

4. Reinstall cap onto DEF tank.
