EXHAUST
WARNING: Failure to maintain the functional holes, in the
tailpipe section of the exhaust, clean and free of debris or
foreign material may result in the holes becoming blocked or plugged.
Do not modify or remove the tail-pipe section. Blocked or plugged
holes or removal/modification of the system could result in elevated
exhaust gas temperatures which may result in vehicle/property damage
or personal injury
WARNING: The normal operating temperature of the exhaust
system is very high. Never work around or attempt to repair any
part of the exhaust system until it has cooled. Use special care when
working around the diesel oxidation catalytic converter and/or the
diesel particulate filter (DPF). The diesel oxidation catalytic converter
and/or the DPF heats up to a high temperature after only a short
period of engine operation and can stay hot even after the engine is
turned off. Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal
injury.
The visible holes in the exhaust tip and the holes under the shield just
inboard of the right rear tire(s) are functional. The holes need to be kept
clear of mud/debris or foreign material to maintain proper function of the
exhaust system. Clean and remove debris or foreign material if present
as needed. Spraying with a hose during regular washing of vehicle should
help keep holes clean and clear of debris or foreign material.
