Particle filter (Diesel)
The start of saturation of the
particle filter is indicated by the
temporary illumination of this
warning lamp accompanied by
a message in the multifunction
screen.
On a new vehicle, the first particle
filter regeneration operations may be
accompanied by a "burning" smell,
which is per fectly normal.
Following prolonged operation of the
vehicle at very low speed or at idle,
you may, in exceptional circumstances,
notice the emission of water vapour at
the exhaust on acceleration. This does
not affect the behaviour of the vehicle
or the environment.
