Detroit Diesel launched the first of its new, four-part driver training video series developed to help drivers enhance their engine's performance.
The four videos include general product background on Detroit Diesel's DD13, DD15 and DD16 family of engines; guidelines on driving for optimal fuel economy and power; specifics on BlueTec SCR Emissions Technology; detailed information about diesel exhaust fluid (DEF); and updates on DDEC, Detroit Diesel's proprietary electronic engine monitoring system.
The videos also provide step-by-step guidance for drivers on using Detroit Diesel's products; as well as provide information on driving trucks with older vs. the newer engine models, detailing the differences in engine characteristics that drivers need to know.
"Detroit Diesel's products are among the most reliable and fuel-efficient engines available today. We want to help our customers further maximize their performance by providing them with useful tips," said Brad Williamson, director, engine and component marketing for Detroit Diesel.
The new videos are part of Detroit Diesel's extensive library of multi-media resources available at www.DetroitDiesel.com, as well as on YouTube and Facebook.
