MAINTENANCE
After the engine is stopped, the DEF system devices automatically purge the DEF in the DEF injector and DEF
pump and return it to the DEF tank to prevent malfunction of the devices caused by freezing of the DEF or dep-
osition of urea.
After the engine is stopped, the devices are still operated for a few minutes. Before replacing the filter, clean
around the DEF pump first after the DEF system devices stop.
