Jeep Wrangler: Diesel Exhaust Fluid / System Overview
This vehicle is equipped with a Diesel Exhaust
Fluid (DEF) injection system and a Selective
Catalytic Reduction (SCR) catalyst to meet the
emission requirements.
The DEF injection system consists of the
following components:
- DEF tank
- DEF pump
- DEF injector
- Electronically-heated DEF Lines
- NOx sensors
- Temperature sensors
- SCR catalyst
The DEF injection system and SCR catalyst
enable the achievement of diesel emissions
requirements; while maintaining outstanding
fuel economy, drivability, torque and power
ratings.
NOTE:
- Your vehicle is equipped with a DEF injection
system. You may occasionally hear an
audible clicking noise from under the vehicle
at a stop. This is normal operation.
- The DEF pump will run for a period of time
after engine shutdown to purge the DEF
system. This is normal operation and may be
audible from the rear of the vehicle.
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...
Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) is considered a very
stable product with a long shelf life. If DEF is kept
in temperatures between 10° and 90°F (-12°
and 32°C), it will last a minimum of one year...
