DEF INDUCEMENT: This pre-alarm displays when SPN 5246 has a value of 3, indicating the first
level of inducement. The engine power or operating speed may be derated at this level of inducement
depending on engine manufacturer and engine application. This is the lowest level of inducement and

operation.

functioning properly or insufficient DEF quality or level for proper operation. The engine power or
operating speed may be derated at this level of inducement depending on engine manufacturer and
engine application. The ECU will allow the engine to run for a limited time in this condition after which
the engine will enter the severe inducement state.
•

either operate with reduced power or RPM or be shut down depending on manufacturer or engine
application. The engine will remain at this level of inducement until the problem causing the
inducement is resolved.
