CLEANING DPF
(PARTICULATE
FILTER) IN PROGRESS
(only Multijet versions
with DPF - amber)
When the ignition key is turned to MAR
(ON), the warning light switches on but it
must switch off after a few seconds. The
warning light comes on constantly to no-
tify the driver that the DPF system needs
to eliminate captured pollutants (particu-
late) by the regeneration process. The
warning light does not come on during
every DPF regeneration, but only when
driving conditions require notification of
the driver. To switch the warning light off,
the car must stay in motion until regen-
eration has been completed. The process
normally takes about 15 minutes. The op-
timum conditions to end the process are
achieved by keeping the car in motion up
to 60km/h with an engine speed higher
than 2,000 rpm. This light coming on is not
a car defect and therefore the car does
not need to go to the workshop. A spe-
cific message will appear on the display
when the warning light comes on (for ver-
sions/markets, where provided).

SIDE/TAILLIGHTS
AND LOW BEAMS

Side/tail lights and low beams
The warning light comes on when side/tail
lights or low beams are turned on.
Follow me home
The warning light will turn when this de-
vice is active (see “Follow me home” in
section “Dashboard and controls”).
The display will show the dedicated mes-
sage.

FOG LIGHTS (green)
The warning light comes on
when the fog lights are on.

LEFT-HAND
DIRECTION
INDICATOR
(green - blinking)
The warning light turns on when the di-
rection indicator control lever is moved
downwards or, together with the right in-
dicator, when the hazard light button is
pressed.
F
Always drive at a speed ap-
propriate to the traffic con-
ditions, the weather and speed limits.
The engine may be turned off while
the DPF light is on; however, repea-
ted interruption of the regeneration
process may result in premature
exhaustion of engine oil. For this rea-
son it is always advisable to wait for
the light to go off before turning off
the engine, following the instructions
appearing above. It is not advisable
to complete DPF regeneration with
the vehicle stationary.
