INTRODUCTION 7 Air is always present inside the fuel tanks, entering mainly through the tank ventilation. With the air being heated and cooled, condensation is formed and water is mixed in the fuel. To avoid condensation when the vehicle is parked for longer periods, fill the tanks up to 95% of capacity. Do not fill more than that, as the fuel needs to have room for expansion during the heat of the day. For additional information about fuel, refer to the Operator’s Manual Vehicle Maintenance. VN: An indicator will appear in the DID screen when there is approximately 3.875 liters (0.9 gallons) remaining in the reservoir. Note: This indicator is optional. It can be deleted.
DANGER DO NOT carry extra fuel containers in the cab. Fuel containers, full or empty, may leak, explode or give added fuel to a fire. Failure to follow this precaution may lead to serious personal injury or death. DANGER Do not remove the fuel tank cap near an open flame. Diesel fuel vapors are combustible and can cause an explosion or fri e, resulting in severe personal injury or death. DANGER DO NOT smoke while fueling the vehicle. The glow from the cigar/cigarette can ignite the diesel fuel, causing an explosion resulting in serious personal injury or death.
