1500 3.0L DIESEL DIESEL EXHAUST FLUID • Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) sometimes known simply by the name of its active component, UREA—is a key component of selective catalytic reduction (SCR) systems, which help diesel vehicles meet stringent emission regulations. DEF is a liquid reducing agent that reacts with engine exhaust in the presence of a catalyst to convert smog-forming nitrogen oxides (NOx) into harmless nitrogen and water vapor.
Page 152 1500 3.0L DIESEL Adding Diesel Exhaust Fluid • The DEF gauge (located in the instrument panel) will display the level of DEF remaining in the tank. • Completely fill the DEF tank through the diesel exhaust fluid fill location (located behind the fuel door) at every maintenance interval or before if prompted by the Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC).
Page 153 1500 3.0L DIESEL CAUTION! • To avoid DEF spillage and overfilling, do not “top off” the DEF tank after filling. • When DEF is spilled, clean the area immediately with water or a mild solvent. • DO NOT OVERFILL. DEF will freeze below 12 degrees F (-11 degrees C). The DEF system is designed to work in temperatures below the DEF freezing point, however, if the tank is overfilled and freezes, the system could be damaged.
