●
Consider the legal speed limits as well as the
recommended gears.
●
Repeat this procedure (accelerate and let
roll) until the control lamp turns off.
This procedure involves an autonomous par-
ticulate filter cleaning process and may take
some time.
If the warning lamp does not turn off, go imme-
diately to a specialised workshop to repair the
fault.
WARNING
Always adjust your speed to suit the weather
conditions, roads, braking distance and traf-
fic if the particulate filter is in its regeneration
phase. Route recommendations should never
make you disregard each country's specific
traffic regulations.
Note
If during the particulate filter regeneration
process you also get a fuel reserve warning
, the process may be interrupted. Refuel
and continue with the particulate filter re-
generation process.
Engine management and emissions control system Fuel and exhaust gas cleaning
NOTICE
●
When the exhaust system detects that the
particulate filter is close to saturation, the
self-cleaning function of this system recom-
mends optimal driving for this function.
●
Due to the high temperatures caused by
the regeneration of the particulate filter, it is
possible that the radiator fan will activate af-
ter stopping the engine, even it its operating
temperature has not been reached.
●
Noise, smells and high idle speeds can oc-
cur during regeneration.
●
Always use the correct engine oil and the
correct fuel to make sure the useful life of the
particulate filter is not affected. Also avoid
making short trips all the time.
