NOTE:
Using a fuel filter that does not meet the manufacturer's filtration and water
separating requirements can severely impact fuel system life and reliability.
The WIF sensor is re-usable. Service kit comes with new o-ring for filter canister
and WIF sensor.
CAUTION!
Diesel fuel will damage blacktop paving surfaces. Drain the filter into an
appropriate container.
Do not prefill the fuel filter when installing a new fuel filter. There is a possibility
debris could be introduced into the fuel filter during this action. It is best to
install the filter dry and allow the in-tank lift pump to prime the fuel system.
If the “Water In Fuel Indicator Light” remains on, DO NOT START the engine
before you drain water from the fuel filter to avoid engine damage.
ADDING FUEL DIESEL ENGINE ONLY
Your vehicle is equipped with a cap-less fuel system.
Most fuel cans will not open the flapper door.
A funnel is provided to open the flapper door to allow emergency refueling with a
fuel can.
Emergency Fuel Can Refueling
1. Retrieve funnel from the jack storage area under the passenger seat.
2. Insert the funnel into same filler pipe opening as the fuel nozzle.
3. Ensure the funnel is inserted fully to hold flapper door open.
4. Pour fuel into funnel opening.
5. Remove the funnel from filler pipe, clean off prior to putting back in the jack
storage area under the passenger seat.
EXHAUST REGENERATION
Under certain conditions, your Cummins
®
diesel engine and exhaust after-
treatment system may never reach the conditions required to remove the trapped
particulate matter. If this occurs, the “Exhaust System Regeneration Required
Now” message will be displayed on the EVIC screen in your cluster and you will
hear one chime to alert you of this condition. Driving your vehicle at highway
speeds for as little as 45 minutes can remedy the condition and allow the engine
and exhaust after-treatment system to remove the trapped particulate matter.
PLEASE NOTE: Under typical operating conditions, NO indications of regenera-
tion state will be displayed. If you do reach 80% of filter capacity, the following
messages will assist you in inducing and understanding the regeneration process.
