4. After the DPF Service Regeneration
procedure completes:
•
If the vehicle's soot level is at an
acceptable level, close the hood.
The vehicle is ready to be driven.
•
If the vehicle's soot level remains
higher than desired, let the vehicle
idle for a minimum of 30 minutes
(hood remains fully open). After
the 30 minutes have passed,
initiate the second DPF
regeneration procedure. It is very
unlikely that more than 2
regeneration cycles will be required,
but if additional cycles are
necessary, allow for a 30-minute
vehicle idle (hood up) to occur
between regeneration cycles.
5. Once all DPF regeneration cycles are
complete, close the hood. The vehicle
is ready to be driven.
Operator Commanded Regeneration
Precautions and Safe Exhaust Position
WARNING: Do not park or idle your
vehicle over dry leaves, dry grass or other
combustible materials. The regeneration
process creates very high exhaust gas
temperatures and the exhaust will
radiate a considerable amount of heat
during and after regeneration and after
you have switched the engine off. This is
a potential fire hazard.
WARNING: Stay clear of the
exhaust tailpipe during regeneration. Hot
exhaust gases can burn you badly.
Make sure that the louvers located at the
tip of the exhaust are clear of any
obstructions as they are used to introduce
fresh air into the tailpipe to cool the
exhaust gases as they leave the exhaust
system.

Before you start operator commanded
regeneration, do the following:
•
Shift into park (P) or if you have an
RNDM selector shift into neutral (N)
and apply the parking and or air brake,
on stable, level ground.
•
Park your vehicle outside of any
structure.
•
Park your vehicle 10 15 ft (3 5 m)
away from any obstructions and away
from materials that can easily combust
or melt, for example paper, leaves,
petroleum products, fuels, plastics and
other dry organic material.
•
Make sure there is a minimum of 1/8
tank of fuel.
•
Make sure all fluids are at proper levels.
How to Start Operator Commanded
Regeneration
WARNING: Stay clear of the
exhaust tailpipe during regeneration. Hot
exhaust gases can burn you badly.
Note: You cannot use the operator
commanded regeneration until the diesel
particulate filter load percentage has
reached 100%. The diesel particulate filter
load percentage fluctuates up and down
when driving your vehicle due to active and
passive regenerations.
Note: During the use of operator
commanded regeneration, you may observe
a light amount of white smoke. This is
normal.
You may not be able to use
