the first switching-on of this warning light. Failure to observe the above may result in severe damage to the engine and invalidate the warranty.
Remember that when this warning light comes on, it does not mean that the level of engine oil is low, so if it flashes you do not need to top
up the engine oil.

The warning light switches on when the ignition key is
turned to MAR, but it should switch off after a few
seconds.
The warning light switches on constantly to inform the
driver that the DPF system needs to eliminate the trapped
pollutants (particulate) through the regeneration process.
A specific message will appear on the display when the
warning light comes on (for versions/markets, where
provided).The warning light does not come on during every DPF
regeneration, but only when driving conditions require
that the driver is notified. The warning light will go off if
the vehicle stays in motion until regeneration has been
completed. On average, the process lasts 15 minutes.
Optimum conditions for completing the process are
achieved by travelling at 60 km/h with engine revs
above 2000 rpm. If this warning light comes on, it
does not mean there is a vehicle defect, so there is no
need to take it to a garage.
