Jeep Wrangler: REFUELING THE VEHICLE — DIESEL ENGINE (IF EQUIPPED) / Diesel Exhaust Fluid
Your vehicle is equipped with a Selective
Catalytic Reduction (SCR) system to meet the
very stringent diesel emissions standards
required by the Environmental Protection Agency.
The purpose of the SCR system is to reduce levels
of NOx (oxides of nitrogen emitted from engines)
that are harmful to our health and the
environment to a near-zero level. A small quantity
of Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) is injected into the
exhaust upstream of a catalyst where, when
vaporized, it converts smog-forming nitrogen
oxides (NOx) into harmless nitrogen (N2) and
water vapor (H2O), two natural components of
the air we breathe. You can operate with the
comfort that your vehicle is contributing to a
cleaner, healthier world environment for this and
generations to come.
If you store quantities of fuel, good
maintenance of the stored fuel is also essential.
Fuel contaminated with water will promote the
growth of “microbes...

NOTE:
The transfer case must be shifted into (N)
Neutral, automatic transmission must be in
PARK, and manual transmission must be in
gear (NOT in NEUTRAL) for recreational towing.
CAUTION!
DO NOT dolly tow any 4WD vehicle. Towing
