Diesel Particulate
Filter
Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF)
The DPF purifies diesel exhaust
gases of particulate matter (PM). PM
is filtered from the exhaust gas and
collected in the DPF. When PM is
collected to the predetermined level
by the engine control module, the
DPF automatically burns the PM in
a process called regeneration.
Regeneration may not be completed
under certain driving conditions.
If this occurs, the multi-information
display (DIC) will provide prompts to
properly complete DPF
regeneration.
The following sections will provide
details on DPF regeneration. Follow
the steps carefully to keep the DPF
in good working order. SeeDriver
Information Center (DIC) (Diesel
Only) 093, Recommended Fluids
and Lubricants 0378, and Engine
Oil (Gasoline) 0257 orEngine Oil
(Diesel) 0251.
{Warning
Exhaust parts and gases become
very hot when the DPF is being
regenerated.
Parking over flammable items
could allow them to touch hot
exhaust parts under your vehicle
and cause them to ignite. Do not
park over papers, leaves, grass
or other things that can burn. You
and others could be seriously
injured.
This content is to restore the
function of the DPF and it is not a
malfunction. However, the check
engine malfunction indicator light
and reduced engine power indicator
light may come on and the power
output may be limited if driving or
power take-off (PTO) operation is
continued for a long time with the
regeneration required warning light
or selectable (switch) regeneration
required warning light (amber/
red) on. This is to prevent the DPF from
being damaged. When operating
PTO during parking, check to
ensure that the regeneration
required warning light or selectable
(switch) regeneration required
warning light (amber/red) on the DIC
is not on.
Engine oil that supports DPF (low
ash oil) is recommended. Use of low
ash oil extends the maintenance
interval of the DPF filter.
Do not modify the DPF or exhaust
pipe. Changing the alignment,
length or diameter of the exhaust
pipe would adversely affect the
exhaust system's exhaust emission
reduction function. If any
modification is necessary to install a
component to the rear of the
vehicle, consult your dealer.
Although the DPF filter automatically
undergoes regeneration (burning of
the accumulated PM) when a
certain amount of PM has
accumulated, driving conditions can
prevent completion of regeneration.

Driving and Operating 181
The selectable (switch) regeneration
required warning light (amber) will
turn on when regeneration cannot
be completed automatically. Perform
Running or Switch regeneration in
accordance with the proper
procedure. This is to restore DPF
function and is normal.
The exhaust pipe mixes air with the
exhaust gas to lower its temperature
before it leaves the exhaust pipe.
The frequency of regeneration
increases especially under the
following environments:
‐Midwinter.
‐ Continuous low-speed driving for
long hours (The frequency of
regeneration increases
particularly with special
equipment vehicles such as
sweeper vehicles which mainly
travel at low speed. The
frequency of regeneration is
higher as compared to delivery
vehicles which mainly travel at
standard high speed). Automatic regeneration is performed
under normal driving conditions
(DPF soot accumulation status level
5, and in rare cases, may be
performed at continuously
low-speeds for long hours, except
PM level 5); however, the
regeneration required warning light
(amber) may be displayed in the
DIC under the following driving
conditions:
‐
When only low-speed driving at/
under vehicle speed of 15 km/h
(9 MPH) is performed.
‐ When frequent engine start and
stop are performed.
‐ When the engine stops every
time before the engine is
warmed up.
‐ When continuous idling (over
1 hour) is frequently performed.
If the vehicle is stationary with the
engine idling during DPF
regeneration, the exhaust brake or
exhaust throttle operates. Operating
sounds will be heard when the exhaust brake or exhaust throttle is
activated or deactivated. The
sounds do not indicate a fault.
White smoke could be emitted
briefly from the exhaust pipe in the
following situations, but it is not
indicating a fault.
‐
Combustion of PM during DPF
regeneration.
‐ During DPF regeneration of a
new vehicle which has been
driven a certain distance. The
vehicle may not emit white
smoke during its initial operation
when new.
‐ Long continuous idling.
The exhaust brake may
automatically be activated in order
to prevent emission of white smoke
if the engine idles continuously over
an extended period of time.
White smoke may be produced
during switch regeneration; do not
perform switch regeneration in any
poorly ventilated indoor place.
On vehicles with a 5.2L diesel
engine, white smoke may be
produced during DPF regeneration

when a new vehicle has been driven
a certain distance, but this is not a
malfunction. The vehicle may not
emit white smoke immediately after
purchase.
DPF PM Accumulation Level
This green display only indicates
DPF soot accumulation status. The
DIC can display the PM
accumulation level in green. The L
indicates Low accumulation of PM
and the H indicates High
accumulation of PM in the DPF.
As PM accumulation increases
inside the DPF, the DIC will display
additional bars increasing from L to
H to show the approximate level of
PM accumulation. SeeDriver
Information Center (DIC) (Diesel
Only) 093. DPF Regeneration Status
This amber display indicates the
DPF is regenerating. During DPF
regeneration, the DIC can display
the status of PM reduction in amber.
The highest accumulation level bar
will be flashing as indication of the
regeneration process.
As PM levels decrease in the DPF
during the regeneration process, the
DIC will decrease the number of
bars from H to L. See
Driver
Information Center (DIC) (Diesel
Only) 093. Automatic Regeneration of DPFThe DPF will regenerate itself as
part of normal operation.
The engine control module (ECM)
controls this function based on
several factors including hours of
operation and mileage. When
automatic regeneration starts, the
regeneration in progress indicator
light (amber) is displayed on
the DIC.
During regeneration the engine idle
speed will increase and the exhaust
brake may activate when the vehicle
is idling while stopped or parked.
Regeneration is normally completed
in about 20 minutes. See
Driver
Information Center (DIC) (Diesel
Only) 093.

Emergency Regeneration
Procedure
If the regeneration required warning
light (amber) or selectable (switch)
regeneration required warning light
(amber) turns on the DIC, the DPF
could not satisfactorily complete
automatic regeneration and driver
action is required. If the
regeneration required warning light
(Not selectable (switch)
regeneration warning light) is turned
on, you can choose from Running
regeneration or Switch regeneration
in order to complete the DPF
regeneration.
If the selectable (switch)
regeneration required warning light
turns on, you have to perform
Switch regeneration in order to
complete the DPF regeneration.
If you continue driving too long with
the regeneration required warning
light (amber) or selectable (switch)
regeneration required warning light
(amber) displayed on the DIC
without performing one of the
possible regenerations, the
message will change to redRegeneration Required warning
light or selectable (switch)
regeneration required warning light.
The red regeneration required
warning light or selectable (switch)
regeneration required warning light
indicates the DPF filter is nearly full
of PM, a condition which may be
damaging to the filter.
DPF regeneration should be
completed immediately if the red
regeneration required warning light
or selectable (switch) regeneration
required warning light is displayed
on the DIC.
Continuing to drive without
performing DPF regeneration will
cause the check engine malfunction
indicator light and reduced engine
power indicator light to come on, an
engine power reduction, and may
cause damage to the DPF filter. See
Driver Information Center (DIC)
(Diesel Only)
093.
Running Regeneration Procedure
Use this option for completing DPF
regeneration, if driving conditions
and traffic allow you to maintain a relatively constant speed above
48 km/h (30 MPH) for about
20 minutes.
Follow the steps below to use
Running regeneration:
1. Determine if road and traffic conditions allow for relatively
constant speeds above
48 km/h (30 MPH).
2. Increase the vehicle speed above 48 km/h (30 MPH) and
keep a constant speed.
3. When vehicle speed, engine coolant temperature and other
factors are met the engine
control module (ECM) will
begin DPF regeneration and
the regeneration in progress
indicator light (amber) will
appear on the DIC.
4. Continue driving until the regeneration in progress
indicator light (amber) goes off.
When this indicator light goes
off the DPF regeneration is
complete.
See Driver Information Center (DIC)
(Diesel Only) 093.

While the vehicle is at a stop with
engine idling, the engine speed
increases.
Switch Regeneration Procedure{Warning
To prevent a fire, make sure that
there is no flammable material
near the muffler, DPF and
exhaust pipe. Remember that the
temperature of exhaust gases is
high enough to burn you. You and
others could be seriously injured.
Select Switch regeneration
procedure if the Running
regeneration procedure is not
possible, or if the selectable (switch)
regeneration required warning light
(amber or red) is displayed on
the DIC. 1. Stop the vehicle at a safe place free of flammable material such
as dead grass, leaves or waste
paper.
2. Move the selector lever into the P position and firmly engage
the parking brake.
3. Let the engine idle. Be sure the accelerator pedal is not
pressed and the PTO switch (if
equipped) is OFF. 4. Press and release the DPF
switch.
5. The regeneration required warning light (amber or red) or
selectable (switch)
regeneration required warning
light (amber or red) on the DIC
will turn off and the
regeneration in progress
indicator light will appear.
6. Do not leave the vehicle during the regeneration. Regeneration
normally completes in about
20 minutes.
7. When the regeneration in progress indicator light (amber)
goes out, regeneration is
completed. Normal driving is
then possible.
If the Switch regeneration is
interrupted, a selectable (switch)
regeneration required warning light
(amber) will appear on the DIC. You
must complete the DPF
regeneration by performing the
Switch regeneration once again as
soon as possible.

10716700) - 2017 - crc - 12/6/16
186 Driving and Operating
If you continue driving too long with
the selectable (switch) regeneration
required warning light (amber)
displayed on the DIC, the message
will change to red. The selectable
(switch) regeneration required
warning light (red) indicates the
DPF filter is nearly full of PM, a
condition which may be damaging
to the filter.
DPF regeneration should be
completed immediately if the
selectable (switch) regeneration
required warning light (red) is
displayed on the DIC.
Continued driving without
performing DPF regeneration will
cause the check engine malfunction
indicator light and reduced engine
power indicator light to come on, an
engine power reduction, and may
cause damage to the DPF filter. See
Driver Information Center (DIC)
(Diesel Only)093.
When operating the PTO for a long
time if your vehicle is so equipped,
make sure that the regeneration
required warning light or selectable (switch) regeneration required
warning light (amber) is not
turning on.
Once the Switch regeneration is
started, it cannot be switched to the
Running regeneration if interrupted.
When the Switch regeneration is
selected, end regeneration in a
single operation if possible.
During the regeneration, the engine
speed may vary, causing the
exhaust brake valve to be
deactivated. However, while the
regeneration in progress indicator
light (amber) appears, regeneration
is still taking place, so continue to
perform regeneration until the
message goes off.
The time needed to complete
regeneration differs depending on
the outside temperature.
The exhaust brake or exhaust
throttle is activated during DPF
regeneration. The exhaust brake or
exhaust throttle starting to operate
or being disengaged will produce a
sound, but this does not indicate a
failure.During regeneration, white smoke
may be temporarily produced from
the exhaust pipe. This results from
combustion of PM, it does not
indicate a failure.
Switch regeneration will complete
earlier immediately after driving than
when the engine is cold.
The engine coolant temperature
may rise during switch regeneration.
Interruption of Switch
Regeneration
If you must interrupt regeneration for
an unavoidable reason, press the
DPF switch again.
The regeneration in progress
indicator light (amber) changes to
the selectable (switch) regeneration
required warning light (amber).
Then, you can drive the vehicle.
If you interrupt regeneration, you
need to perform regeneration again.
Perform switch regeneration
beginning with Step 1 as soon as
possible.
