Failure to perform active or manual
regeneration when instructed could result
in a clogged diesel particulate filter. If the
diesel particulate filter fills beyond the
regeneration threshold, your vehicle
disables the ability for active and manual
regeneration. This could result in
irreversible damage your vehicle Warranty
may not cover.
DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER
REQUIREMENTS
The diesel particulate filter on your vehicle
requires periodic regeneration to maintain
its correct function.
If your journeys meet one of the following
conditions:
•
You drive only short distances.
• You frequently switch the ignition on
and off.
• Your journeys contain a high level of
acceleration and deceleration.
You must carry out occasional trips with
the following conditions to assist the
regeneration process:
• Drive your vehicle in more favorable
conditions, which you will find at higher
vehicle speeds in normal driving, on a
main road or freeway for a minimum
of 20 minutes. This drive may include
short stops that will not affect the
regeneration process.
• Avoid prolonged idling and observe
speed limits and road conditions.
• Do not switch the ignition off.
• Select a suitable gear to ideally
maintain engine speed between 1500
and 3000 RPM. DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER
MANUAL REGENERATION
WHAT IS DIESEL PARTICULATE
FILTER MANUAL REGENERATION
Diesel particulate filter manual
regeneration allows you to manually start
regeneration of the diesel particulate filter
at idle to clean the filter.
Note:
If you are not sure whether your
vehicle has this feature, contact your
authorized dealer.
DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER
MANUAL REGENERATION
PRECAUTIONS WARNING: Stay clear of the
exhaust tailpipe during regeneration. Hot
exhaust gases can burn you badly.
You may not be able to use manual
regeneration if the service engine soon
warning lamp appears in the information
display.
Note: During the use of manual
regeneration, you may observe a light
amount of white smoke. This is normal.
DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER
MANUAL REGENERATION
REQUIREMENTS
You can use the manual regeneration
feature when a message appears in the
information display and you are not able
to drive in a manner that allows effective
automatic active regeneration or if you
choose to manually start the regeneration
of the diesel particulate filter while the
vehicle is idle.

PARKING AID PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: To help avoid personal
injury, always use caution when in
reverse (R) and when using the sensing
system. WARNING:
The system may not
detect objects with surfaces that absorb
reflection. Always drive with due care
and attention. Failure to take care may
result in a crash. WARNING: Traffic control systems,
fluorescent lamps, inclement weather,
air brakes, external motors and fans may
affect the correct operation of the
sensing system. This may cause reduced
performance or false alerts. WARNING:
The system may not
detect small or moving objects,
particularly those close to the ground. WARNING:
The parking aid system
can only assist you to detect objects
when your vehicle is moving at parking
speeds. To help avoid personal injury you
must take care when using the parking
aid system. WARNING:
The system may not
function if the sensor is blocked. WARNING:
In cold and severe
weather conditions the system may not
function. Rain, snow and spray can all
limit sensor performance. WARNING:
If damage occurs in the
immediate area surrounding the sensor,
have your vehicle checked as soon as
possible. Note:
If your vehicle sustains damage
leaving the sensors misaligned, this will
cause inaccurate measurements or false
alerts.
When you connect a trailer to your vehicle,
the rear parking aid detects the trailer and
provides an alert. Disable the parking aid
when you connect a trailer to prevent the
alert.
Note: Certain add-on devices installed
around the bumper or fascia may create
false alerts, for example, large trailer
hitches, bike or surfboard racks, license plate
brackets, bumper covers or any other device
that could block the normal detection zone
of the parking aid system. Aftermarket spare
tires or spare tire covers mounted to the rear
tailgate could cause false alerts from the
park aid system. Remove the add-on device
to prevent false alerts.
Note: Keep the sensors free from snow, ice
and large accumulations of dirt. If the
sensors are covered, the system's accuracy
can be affected.
Do not clean the sensors with sharp
objects.
Note: When using a programmed MyKey
you cannot switch this off. See
MyKey ™
(page 77).
REAR PARKING AID
WHAT IS THE REAR PARKING AID
Rear parking sensors detect objects behind
your vehicle when in reverse (R).
REAR PARKING AID LIMITATIONS
There is a decreased coverage area at the
outer corners.
When using a programmed MyKey, you
cannot switch the rear parking aid off.

Trailer Light Check
WARNING: Never connect any
trailer lamp wiring to the vehicle's tail
lamp wiring; this may damage the
electrical system resulting in fire. Contact
your authorized dealer as soon as
possible for assistance in proper trailer
tow wiring installation. Additional
electrical equipment may be required.
Most towed vehicles require trailer lamps.
Make sure all running lights, brake lights,
turn signals and hazard lights are working.
Safety Chains
Install trailer safety chains to the trailer
hitch as recommended by the
manufacturer. Cross the chains under the
trailer coupler and allow enough slack for
turning tight corners. Do not allow the
chains to drag on the ground. Note:
Do not attach safety chains to the
bumper. Always connect the safety chains
to the frame or hook retainers of your trailer
hitch. If the trailer safety chain hook has a latch,
make sure to fully close the latch.
