when tampering has been detected. The vehicle
may be limited to a maximum speed of 5 mph
(8 km/h) if the DEF system is not serviced
within less than 200 miles (322 km) of the fault
being detected.
When the DEF system needs to be serviced the
following warnings will display:
DEF Low Refill Soon — This message will
display when the low level is reached, during
vehicle start up, and with increased
frequency during vehicle operation. It will be
accompanied by a single chime. Approxi-
mately 5 gallons (19 Liters) of DEF is required
to refill the tank when this message is initially
displayed. on pickup applications, and
approximately 7 gallons (26 Liters) are
required on chassis-cab applications.

the “DEF Low Refill Soon” message is
ignored, and the frequency of occurrence of
the chime will increase unless up to 2 gallons
(7.5 Liters) of DEF is added to the tank.
5 MPH Max Speed on Restart, Long Idle or
Refuel Refill DEF — This message will contin-
uously display when the counter reaches

the following conditions to occur:
If the vehicle is shutoff and restarted.
If the vehicle is idled for an extended
period of time, approximately one hour or
