Diesel particulate filter
Notes on regeneration
& WARNING Risk of exhaust gas poisoning
Combustion engines emit poisonous exhaust
gases such as carbon monoxide. Inhaling
these exhaust gases causes poisoning.
Never leave the engine running in an
#
enclosed space without sufficient venti‐
lation.
& WARNING Risk of fire caused by hot
exhaust system parts
Flammable material such as leaves, grass or
twigs may ignite if they come into contact
with hot parts of the exhaust system or
exhaust gas flow.
Park the vehicle so that no flammable
#
material can come into contact with hot
vehicle components.
In particular, do not park on dry grass‐
#
land or harvested grain fields.
If the vehicle is predominantly used for short-dis‐
tance driving or power take-off is used when sta‐
tionary, it could lead to malfunctions in the auto‐
matic cleaning function of the diesel particulate
filter. The diesel particulate filter may become
overloaded causing loss of engine power.

If your vehicle has a particulate filter load dis‐
play or a regeneration display, you can dis‐
play this in the multifunction display. If nec‐
essary, you can request regeneration of the
diesel particulate filter via the regeneration
display. ( page 121)

Regular regeneration of the diesel particulate
filter can prevent malfunctions, thinning of
the engine oil and loss of engine power.
* NOTE Damage due to hot exhaust gases
During regeneration, extremely hot exhaust
gases escape from the tailpipe.
During regeneration, maintain a mini‐
#
mum distance of 2 m from other
objects, e.g. parked vehicles.
