In Brief
Diesel particle filter
3
The diesel particle filter system filters
harmful soot particles out of the exhaust
gases. The system includes a self-cleaning
function that run automatically during
driving. The filter is cleaned by burning off
the soot particles at high temperature. This
process takes place automatically under
set driving conditions and may take up
to 25 minutes. Fuel consumption may be
higher during this period. The emission of
smells and smoke during this process is
normal.
Under certain driving conditions, e.g. short
journeys, the system may not clean itself
automatically.

If the filter requires cleaning and previous
driving conditions did not enable automatic
cleaning, control indicator

the ignition and then repeat the start
attempt.

flash, please try to start the engine using
the second key and contact a workshop. If control indicator
A illuminates after the
engine has started, there is a fault in the
engine electronics or transmission
electronics 33142, 3148, 3156 or there is
water in the diesel fuel filter 33244.
