NOTICE
If you ignore the symbol and do not regenerate the
DPF, the multi-information display changes to the
DPF warning symbol. If this happens, take your
vehicle to a dealer as soon as possible. Continuously
ignoring the multi-information display warning
symbol causes the DPF to be clogged with PM,
seriously damaging the DPF and emission control
systems.
To minimize the accumulation of PM, always use the
recommended diesel fuel.
2 Fuel recommendation P. 523
PM is accumulated in the catalytic converter when
you drive at a low speed for a long period of time or
by frequent short journeys.
