Diesel particulate filter obstructed

If the symbol
 lights up, you can contribute towards automatic filter
cleaning by driving in the right manner. To do this, drive about 15 minutes in
4th or 5th gear (automatic gearbox: S gear range) at a speed of 60 km/h, with
the engine running at approximately 2000 rpm. The increase in temperature
will burn off any soot in the filter. When cleaning is successful, the symbol
switches off.
If the symbol  does not turn off, or the three lamps turn on (particulate
filter
, emission control system fault
 and heaters
D), take the vehicle
to a qualified workshop to repair the fault.
For further information on the diesel particulate filter, see ⇒page 199.
WARNING
It is essential that you adjust your speed to suit the weather, road, terrain
and traffic conditions. The recommended driving speed must never lead to
the driver disregarding the traffic regulations.
