DPF (Check System)
If you see this symbol or this symbol
with a ''CHECK SYSTEM'' message
on the multi-information display
while the engine is running, it means
the diesel particulate filter (DPF) is
clogged with accumulated
particulate matter (PM) and it
should be checked, then repaired or
replaced. Take your vehicle to a
Honda dealer as soon as possible.
While in this condition, the engine
power gets reduced.
Catalytic Converters (Diesel models)
If you ignore this symbol/message
and continue driving, the DPF and
your vehicle's emission control
systems will be seriously damaged.
The catalytic converter and DPF
system must operate at a high
temperature for the chemical
reactions to take place. It can set on
fire any combustible materials that
come near it. Park your vehicle away
from high grass, dry leaves, or other
flammables.
