The warning light does not switch on during every
DPF regeneration, but only when driving conditions
require that the driver is notified. To switch the
warning light off, the car must be kept in motion
until the regeneration process is completed.
On average, the process lasts fifteen minutes.
Optimal conditions for completing the process are
achieved by travelling at 60 km/h with engine revs
above 2000 rpm.
If this light switches on, it does not mean that the
car is defective, so there is no need to take it to
a garage. A specific message will appear on the
display when the warning light comes on (for
versions/markets, where provided).

WARNING

The driving speed must always be
suitable for traffic and weather

conditions and the driver must always comply
with the Highway Code.The engine can be
stopped even if the DPF warning light is on;
however, repeated interruptions of the
regeneration process could cause premature
deterioration of the engine oil. For this reason,
always wait until the warning light switches
off before stopping the engine as described
above. It is not advisable to complete DPF
regeneration with the car stationary.

(for versions/markets, where provided)

system intervention/fault.
