[voice over] Your diesel engine will sound, feel and drive differently from a gasoline powered engine. The Cummins Diesel Engine in your new vehicle provides rugged durability and high torque for pulling heavy loads. The Cummins Diesel Engine meets all EPA heavy-duty diesel engine emission standards. To achieve these emission standards your vehicle is equipped with a state of the art engine and exhaust system.
These systems are seamlessly integrated into your vehicle and managed by the Cummins Power Train control module, or PCM. The PCM manages engine combustion to allow the exhaust system’s catalyst to trap and burn particulate matter, or PM pollutants. See your Owner’s Information for details. Additionally, your vehicle has the ability to alert you to important messages that will be displayed in your instrument cluster display.

[text on screen] Next Up… Wait To Start Light

[voice over] In cold weather, when engine temperatures fall below 66 degrees Fahrenheit or 19 degrees Celsius, the Wait To Start light will remain on, indicating the intake manifold heater system is active. If this is the case, starting the diesel engine in the vehicle is just a bit different than usual.

If the Wait To Start light is on, pushing the Engine Start button, with the driver’s foot on the brake, will move the ignition from Off or ACC to Run, but the engine will not immediately crank. This is normal operation. The Wait To Start message will be displayed in the instrument cluster while the manifold heater system preheats the engine. During this time, the instrument cluster will display a gauge or bar that will indicate the time period until engine start. When the engine Wait To Start light goes off the engine will automatically crank. After engine startup, check to see that there is oil pressure. Ok! You’re ready to go.
