5. Pull out the supposedly defective fuse.
6. Insert the fuse in a fuse tester, and check it.
If the green LED lights up, then the fuse is not damaged.
If the green LED does not light up, then the fuse is defective.
7. Replace a defective fuse with a new fuse using the nominal
value specified in the table.

Regeneration process MIC 70

WARNING
Risk of burns due to the regeneration process
Only start manual regeneration in non-flammable areas. During
the regeneration process, the deposited soot particles will be
burned and very hot exhaust gases (up to 600 °C) could escape.

13.1 Description of regeneration

The vehicle is equipped with a diesel particulate filter.
 The diesel particulate filter holds back the soot particles until
they are burned at very high temperatures; this process is
called regeneration. The regeneration process is carried out
either automatically in driving mode but can also be started
manually if required.
 The more frequently the vehicle is driven at high speeds or
with loads, the less often will a regeneration process have to
take place.
 The regeneration process takes place in various stages, de-
pending on the stored amount of soot.
 The regeneration process can be preselected: <Auto> or <In-
hibit> (locked). The settings can be selected when the start
display is booting up.
 If <Auto> is selected, the control electronics automatically start
the regeneration process if there are too many soot particles
in the diesel particulate filter.
 If <Inhibit> (locked) is selected, automatic regeneration is pre-
vented and only <Parked Regeneration> is possible. The ve-
hicle needs to be parked for <Parked Regeneration>.
Note
A detailed description of the regeneration process can be found
in the following chapters.
13.2 Regeneration <Automatic>
This display lights up during automatic regeneration.
The display also temporarily lights up during the regen-
eration process.
13.3 Regeneration <Stage 1>
If the amount of soot particles in the diesel particulate fil-
ter necessitating regeneration is reached, then this will
be shown together with the text message in the display.
Stage 1: Press <x> to start automatic regeneration.
13.4 Regeneration <Stage 2>
If automatic mode is disabled, or the control electronics
cannot start the regeneration process, the display will
flash and text messages will appear.
Stage 2: Automatic regeneration is now still possible or starting a
<Parked Regeneration>. Press <x>.
Note
The regeneration process <Parked Regeneration> is described
in a later chapter.
