The regeneration procedure is controlled
automatically by the engine management control unit
according to the filter conditions and car use
conditions.
During the regeneration there may be a limited
increase in the engine idle speed, fan activation, a
limited increase in fumes and high temperatures at
the exhaust.
These are not faults; they do not impair normal car
performance or damage the environment. If the
dedicated message is displayed, see contents of
"Warning lights and messages" chapter.

WARNING

The catalytic converter and particulate
filter (DPF) reach very high

temperatures during operation.Therefore, do
not park the car on flammable materials (grass,
dry leaves, pine needles etc.) to avoid the risk
of fire.
