Engines
Refer to the engine manufacturer's operation
manual for recommended heaters, low-
viscosity lubricating oils, winter-grade fuels,
and approved coolants.
Periodically check the coolant mix ratio (con-
centration of antifreeze in the coolant). Add
more if necessary.
At temperatures below -4°F (-20°C), a coolant
preheater is recommended.

High Idle Options

NOTE: To operate the high idle options listed
below, the vehicle must be stopped, the trans-
mission shift lever placed in the Neutral (N) or
Park (P) position, and the parking brake set.
IMPORTANT: Do not idle the engine for exces-
sively long periods. The extreme heat may
cause the bearings to seize or the oil seals to
leak.
High Idle with Cruise Control
1.
Place the shift lever in Neutral (N) or Park (P)
and set the parking brake.
2.
Press the cruise switch located on the dash to
the ON position. Press the RESUME switch to
accelerate the engine revolutions per minute
(rpm) to the minimum set speed. To increase the
engine rpm, press and hold the RESUME switch.
To decrease the engine rpm, press and hold the
SET switch.
NOTE: The rpm can also be increased by de-
pressing the throttle pedal until the desired rpm
is met, and then pressing the SET switch.
3.
Disengage the cruise control by depressing the
service brake pedal, or by moving the ON/OFF
switch to the OFF position.
Voltage-Based Auto High Idle
1.
Place the shift lever in Neutral (N) or Park (P)
and set the parking brake.
2.
The idle rpm will automatically increase when the
voltage drops below 12.2 volts for 10 seconds.
The rpm will incrementally increase every five
seconds until 13.4 volts is achieved and main-
tained.
4.3
3.
The Voltage-Based Auto High Idle system is dis-
engaged by depressing the service brake pedal.
IMPORTANT: The Voltage-Based Auto High Idle
system will not return to normal operation until
one of the following occurs: The parking brake
is depressed and released, the key switch is
turned to the OFF position, or the transmission
gears are changed.
Exhaust Aftertreatment System
(ATS)
Vehicles and/or engines manufactured after Decem-
ber 31, 2006 and domiciled in the U.S. or Canada
are required to meet all EPA and NHTSA regulations
effective as of the vehicle build date. Engines manu-
factured between January 1, 2007 and December 31,
2009 meet EPA07 requirements. Engines manufac-
tured between January 1, 2010 and December 31,
2012 meet EPA10 requirements.
Model year 2013 and later vehicles meet additional
requirements as specified by NHTSA and EPA 2014
fuel efficiency and greenhouse gas emission stan-
dards (GHG14). Model year 2017 and later vehicles
meet similar requirements as specified by GHG17
requirements. These vehicles are equipped with
components that increase fuel efficiency and reduce
GHG emissions.
IMPORTANT: Depending on local jurisdictional
guidelines, vehicles that are domiciled outside of
the U.S. and Canada may not have emissions
aftertreatment systems (ATS) that are compliant
with EPA regulations.
NOTICE
Follow these guidelines for engines that comply
with EPA07 or newer regulations, or damage may
occur to the aftertreatment device (ATD) and the
warranty may be compromised.
Use ultralow-sulfur diesel with 15 ppm sulfur
content or less.
Do not use fuel blended with used engine lube
oil or kerosene.
Engine lube oil must have a sulfated ash level
less than 1.0 wt %; currently referred to as
CJ-4 oil.
