40 STARTING AND OPERATING Biodiesel Fuel Requirements A maximum blend of 5% biodiesel meeting ASTM specification D975 is recommended for use with your diesel engine. If frequent operation with Biodiesel blends are greater than 5% but not greater than 20% (B6-B20) is desired, the maintenance schedule is subject to shorter intervals. The oil and filter change along with fuel filter replacement is subject to shorter intervals when operating your engine on biodiesel greater than 5%. Do not use biodiesel greater than 20%. For regular use of biodiesel blends greater than 5% but not greater than 20% (B6-B20) it is important that you understand and comply with these requirements. Refer to the "Maintenance Chart" in the "Maintenance Schedules" section for further direction. CAUTION! Failure to comply with Oil Change requirements for vehicles operating on biodiesel blends greater than 5% but not greater than 20% (B6-B20) will result in premature engine wear. Such wear is not covered by the New Vehicle Limited Warranty. Biodiesel is a fuel produced from renewable resources typically derived from animal fat, rapeseed oil (Rapeseed Methyl Ester (RME) base), or soybean oil (Soy Methyl Ester (SME or SOME) base). Biodiesel fuel has inherent limitations which require that you understand and adhere to the following requirements if you use blends of Biodiesel greater than 5% but not greater than 20% (B6-B20). There are no unique restrictions for the use of B5.
