General Information
Important: Depending on local jurisdictional guidelines, vehicles that are domiciled outside of the U.S. and Canada may not have emissions aftertreatment systems (ATS) that are compliant with EPA regulations.
Notice: Follow these guidelines for engines that comply with EPA07 or newer regulations, or damage may occur to the aftertreatment device (ATD) and the warranty may be compromised.
-
Use ultralow-sulfur diesel with 15 ppm sulfur content or less.
-
Do not use fuel blended with used engine lube oil or kerosene.
-
Engine lube oil must have a sulfated ash level less than 1.0 wt %; currently referred to as CJ-4 oil.
Important: Using non-specification fuels or oils can lead to shortened diesel particulate filter (DPF) cleaning or replacement intervals. For example, using CJ-4+ oil with 1.3% sulfated ash (30% more ash content) may result in the need for DPF cleaning or replacement 20 to 30% sooner than would normally be required.
Important: See the engine manufacturer's operation manual for complete details and operation of the ATS.
