Exhaust Filter XX%/FULLdisplays. Operator commandedregeneration can only be initiated whenFULL See Information Display Control(page 53). If a message advising that theexhaust filter is full appears in theinformation display, press and hold the OKbutton to initiate Exhaust Cleaning. Ifsuccessful, a second prompt appearsregarding exhaust position required toinitiate operator commanded regeneration.Be sure to understand each prompt.

It is not necessary to open the hood on theengine compartment. Once operatorcommanded regeneration completes, theengine speed returns to normal idling. Theexhaust system remains very hot forseveral minutes even after regeneration is
complete. Do not reposition the vehicleover materials that could burn until theexhaust system has had sufficient time tocool. Depending on the amount of sootcollected by the diesel particulate filter,ambient temperature and altitude,operator commanded regeneration lastsapproximately 30 minutes.
