into the red zone of tachometer.
CAUTION
Be sure to regenerate the DPF
®
when
the DPF
®
warning light comes on.
Failure to regenerate the DPF
®
will
cause a vehicle malfunction due to
the clogged filter.
WARNING
• Reduce your speed and downshift
to a lower gear before going down
a long or steep hill. A lower gear
will allow the engine to provide
braking. Avoid riding the brakes or
they may overheat, resulting in
brake failure.
• When driving on slippery roads, be
sure to slow down before down-
shifting. Excessive and or sudden
changes in engine speed may
cause loss of traction, which could
cause you to lose control.
• Make sure that the vehicle is com-
pletely stationary before you shift
into reverse.
