Operation
Diesel particulate filter regeneration
Diesel particulate filter regeneration
Functions:
Automatic regeneration of the diesel
particulate filter
Inhibiting automatic regeneration of
the diesel particulate filter
Catalytic converter protection func-
tion
Automatic regeneration of the
diesel particulate filter
Whenever the green "Particulate fil-
ter" indicator lamp
in the instrument
cluster lights up, this means that the
diesel particulate filter is undergoing
automatic regeneration.
Note:
Automatic regeneration does not start un-
less all necessary operating conditions
have been fulfilled, e.g. engine oil or ex-
haust gas temperatures sufficiently high
and engine running.

Note:
If regeneration is in progress and one of
the operating conditions is subsequently
no longer fulfilled, the green indicator
lamp
goes out prematurely and re-
generation is aborted.
Note:
It restarts automatically when all neces-
sary operating conditions are fulfilled
again. For this reason, avoid interrupt-
ing a journey while the green "Particulate
filter" indicator lamp
is lit.
Note:
If the elevated exhaust gas temperatures
associated with regeneration may present
a danger, e.g. where the heat produced
may jeopardise safety, it is possible to in-
hibit the automatic regeneration process.
Inhibiting automatic regeneration
of the diesel particulate filter
M54.00-2038-71
If the elevated exhaust gas temperat-
ures associated with regeneration may
present a danger, e.g. where the heat
produced may jeopardise safety, it is
possible to inhibit the regeneration pro-
cess. Neither automatic nor manual re-
generation can then be initiated and re-
generation is stopped if it is already in
progress.
