Fiat SEDICI Owner's Handbook Manual page 155

However, you should drive carefully with
keeping the legal speed limit, and take care
the surrounding traffic condition.
If you drive your vehicle at an average
speed of 50 km/h (31 mph) for about 5 min-
utes, the regeneration of the diesel partic-
ulate filter will be completed and the Diesel
Particulate Filter warning light will go out.
IMPORTANT Be sure to regenerate the
diesel particulate filter when the Diesel Par-
ticulate Filter warning light comes on. Non-
regenerate the diesel particulate filter will
cause the vehicle malfunction due to the
clogged filter.
NOTE When you drive your vehicle, the
white smoke may be emitted depending on
the grade of fuel used. This is due to the
particle filter being regenerated automati-
cally, and does not affect the way the ve-
hicle runs.
