Action / Description
Displayed when the coolant additive needs to
be checked. Refer to your diesel supplement
for more information.
Displayed when the vehicle has entered the
cleaning mode. Various engine actions will
raise the exhaust temperature in the Diesel
Particulate Filter (DPF) system to burn off the
particles (exhaust soot). After the particles are
burned off, the exhaust temperature will fall
back to normal levels. This message is
NORMAL. Refer to your diesel supplement for
more information.
Displayed when the Diesel Particulate Filter
(DPF) is full of particles (exhaust soot) and
the vehicle is not being operated in a manner
to allow normal cleaning. This message will
stay on until the exhaust filter cleaning has
begun, at which time the CLEANING
EXHAUST FILTER message will be displayed.
It is recommended the vehicle operator drive
the vehicle above 30 mph (48 km/h) until the
CLEANING EXHAUST FILTER message turns
off. This message is NORMAL. Refer to your
diesel supplement for more information. Note:
If this message is ignored, your vehicle will
continue to fill the Diesel Particulate Filter
(DPF) with particles (exhaust soot). If
cleaning is not permitted, the light will
illuminate and engine power may be limited. If
the vehicle is still not operated in a manner to
allow cleaning, the service engine soon light
will illuminate and engine power will be
further limited. Dealer service will then be
required to restore your vehicle to full-power
operation.
