WARNING
• White smoke may be produced during manual regeneration; do not perform
manual regeneration in a poorly ventilated indoor place.
ADVICE
• When operating the PTO for a long time if your vehicle is so equipped, make
sure that the DPD manual regeneration indicator light (amber) (model not
equipped with MID) or the "PUSH DPD SWITCH" message (amber) (model
equipped with MID) is not flashing.
NOTE
• The time needed to complete regeneration differs depending on the outside
temperature.
• The exhaust brake or exhaust throttle is activated during DPD regeneration.
The exhaust brake or exhaust throttle starting to operate or being disengaged
will produce a sound, but this does not indicate a failure.
• During regeneration, white smoke may be temporarily produced from the
exhaust pipe. This results from combustion of PM, it does not indicate a failure.
• Manual regeneration will complete earlier immediately after driving than when
the engine is cold.
• The engine coolant temperature may rise during manual regeneration.
Interruption of Manual Regeneration
If you must interrupt regeneration for an unavoidable reason, press the DPD switch
again.
The DPD manual regeneration indicator light (amber) starts flashing if your vehicle is
not equipped with a MID or the "MANUAL REGEN." message (amber) changes to a
flashing "PUSH DPD SWITCH" message (amber). Then, you can drive the vehicle. If
you interrupt regeneration, you need to perform regeneration again. Perform manual
regeneration beginning with Step 1 as soon as possible.
