DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER
The filter forms part of the emissionsreduction system on your vehicle. It filtersharmful diesel particulates (soot) from theexhaust gas.
Regeneration
WARNINGS
Do not park or idle your vehicle overdry leaves, dry grass or othercombustible materials. Theregeneration process creates very highexhaust gas temperatures and the exhaustwill radiate a considerable amount of heatduring and after regeneration and after youhave switched the engine off. This is apotential fire hazard.
Avoid running out of fuel.
Note:During regeneration at low speed orengine idle, you may smell a hot metallicodour and could notice a clicking metallicsound. This is due to the high temperaturesreached during regeneration and is normal.
Note:After you have switched your engineoff the fans may continue to run for a shortperiod of time.
A normal filter requires periodicreplacement. The diesel particulate filteron your vehicle requires periodicregeneration to maintain its correctfunction. Your vehicle will carry out thisprocess automatically.
If your journeys meet one of the followingconditions:
•You drive only short distances.
•You frequently switch the ignition onand off.
•Your journeys contain a high level ofacceleration and deceleration.
