7. CAUTIONS
1) Designated Engine Oil for CDPF (Low Ash Oil)
Need to use the designated engine oil for CDPF 1.
The smoke from the vehicle may generate the particle material in the ambient air. CDPF is
the device to reduce the smoke by collecting and recycling it. To ensure the performance
of CDPF, the designated engine oil should be used.
The smoke including combusted sulfur in fuel cannot be recycled in CDPF. This smoke
generates the ash, resulting in clogging the filter. -
-
Advantages when using the designated engine oil for CDPF 2.
Reduces the amount of ash
Improves the fuel economy and reduces the CO2
Increases the life span of engine oil
Available for all engines (diesel and gasoline) -
-
-
-
Problems when using non-designated engine oil for CDPF 3.
Decreases the life span of engine oil due to accumulated ash in DPF (around 30%)
Decreases the fuel economy due to friction resistance, exhaust gas resistance and
frequent recycling process of DPF -
-
The fuel containing high sulfur may cause the same problems.

E. Cautions
Use only specified Engine Oil (approved by MB Sheet 229.51) for CDPF. -
Use only specified engine oil (Low Ash Oil) ▶
The vehicle equipped with CDPF should use specific engine oil to improve the engine performance
and fuel economy, and ensure the service life of CDPF. -
Issue with normal engine oil ▶
Sulfur, one of the contents of engine oil is burned and generates soot that is not regenerated by the
DPF. This remains on the filter as ashes and keeps accumulating. Eventually, this ashes will block
the filter. -
Benefit for specified engine oil ▶
Minimized the sulfur content of engine oil which reduces the service life.
Improved fuel economy and emission level of CO2 with high performance and low viscosity.
Increased service life of engine oil with high resistance to temperature. -
-
-
Problems when using unspecified engine oil ▶
The service life of filter may be reduced by 30% or more by the ashes accumulated on the filter.
The fuel economy may be reduced because of engine rolling resistance, frequent regeneration of
DPF. -
-
These problems are also caused by oil with high sulfur content, such as tax exemption oil and
heating oil, etc. *
