Fuel and Refueling Filling the DEF tank WARNING: Make sure that DEF does not come into contact with eyes, skin or clothing. Should DEF contact your eyes, flush them with plenty of water and contact a physician. Clean affected skin with soap and water. If DEF is swallowed, drink plenty of water and contact a physician immediately. WARNING: Refill DEF in a well-ventilated area. When opening the cap on the DEF tank or bottle containing DEF, ammonia vapors may escape. The vapors can be irritating to skin, eyes and mucous membranes. Inhaling ammonia vapors can cause burning to the eyes, throat and nose and cause coughing and watery eyes. Note: Do not put DEF in the fuel tank. This can cause engine damage not covered by your vehicle's warranty. Note: Immediately wipe away any DEF that has spilled on painted surfaces with water and a damp cloth to prevent damage to the paint. Your vehicle is equipped with a DEF tank with a blue-capped filler port located next to the diesel fuel fill inlet. The tank can be filled using a nozzle at a DEF filling station (similar to fuel fill) or using a DEF bottle with a spout. Motorcraft® DEF bottles are recommended as they are designed to be spill proof and will stop the flow of DEF when the tank is full. Other aftermarket bottles can be used, but they should have a seal on the spout and an internal vent tube to achieve best fill performance and prevent overfilling. Overfilling your DEF tank can cause damage to the tank. For DEF capacity, see the Capacities and Specifications chapter. You can purchase DEF at your authorized dealer, most highway truck stops or you can contact roadside assistance for help in finding a retailer that sells DEF. See the Customer Assistance chapter in the Owner's Manual for more information. In addition, there is a government website locator for DEF at the following web address that can be used to find the nearest location to purchase DEF: http://www.afdc.energy.gov/afdc/ locator/def. 23 2013 Diesel (67l) Supplement, 1st Printing USA (fus)
