FUEL AND DIESEL EXHAUST FLUID
(DEF) FILLER DOOR
The fuel and Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) filler door is
located on the L.H. side of the coach providing easy
filling. The vehicle is also equipped with a R.H. door
with fuel filler only.
A spring keeps the door either open or shut. A key is
provided for unlocking the door if the option was
chosen.
FUEL & DEF FILLER DOOR
NOTE
Provided the vehicle is parked on level ground, an
automatic nozzle will automatically shut off when
the fuel tank is approximately 95% full.
NOTE
The fuel & DEF filler door must be in the unlocked
position before closing
DEF – Do not overfill
If an automatic nozzle is used for filling diesel
exhaust fluid (DEF), do not add further DEF after
the nozzle has automatically shut off flow a first
time.
If such nozzle is not available, use the DEF level
gage on the instrument panel to control the quantity
during filling.
Diesel exhaust fluid DEF will begin to crystallize
and freeze at 12°F (-11°C) and expand by 7% when
frozen. To allow expansion without damaging the
DEF tank, do not fill the tank with more than 16
gallons (60 liters).
