NOTE: DaimlerChrysler recommends the use of Ultra
Low Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel (15 ppm Sulfur maxi-
mum) wherever it is available. Your vehicle is also
capable of operation on Low Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel
(500 ppm maximum) without the risk of damage to the
emissions control system. Although labels on retail Low
Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel station pumps may state that
the use of Low Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel is prohibited
on MY 2007 and later vehicles, the United States Envi-
ronmental Protection Agency recognizes that this par-
ticular 2007 MY vehicle may be operated on either Low
or Ultra Low Sulfur Highway diesel fuel. Please note,
however, that other 2007 MY vehicles may be equipped
with different emissions control systems and may be
operated only with Ultra Low Sulfur Highway Diesel
fuel (reference www.cleandiesel.org).
NOTE: No. 1 diesel fuel should only be used where
extended arctic conditions (-10°F or -23°C) exist.
Fuel Requirements (6.7L Diesel Engines)
Use good quality diesel fuel from a reputable supplier in
your vehicle. Federal law requires that you must fuel this
vehicle with Ultra Low Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel (15
ppm Sulfur maximum) and prohibits the use of Low
Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel (500 ppm Sulfur maximum)
to avoid damage to the emissions control system. For
most year-round service, No. 2 diesel fuel meeting ASTM
specification D-975 Grade S15 will provide good perfor-
mance. If the vehicle is exposed to extreme cold (below
20°F or -7°C), or is required to operate at colder-than-
normal conditions for prolonged periods, use climatized
No. 2 diesel fuel or dilute the No. 2 diesel fuel with 50%
No. 1 diesel fuel. This will provide better protection from
fuel gelling or wax-plugging of the fuel filters.
