Your vehicle has the ability to alert you to additional
maintenance required on your vehicle or engine. Refer to
the following messages that may be displayed on your
Driver Information Display (DID):
• Exhaust Filter XX% Full Safely Drive at Highway
Speeds to Remedy — This message will be displayed
on the Driver Information Display (DID) if the exhaust
particulate filter reaches 80% of its maximum storage
capacity. Under conditions of exclusive short duration
and low speed driving cycles, your diesel engine and
exhaust after-treatment system may never reach the
conditions required to cleanse the filter to remove the
trapped PM. If this occurs, the “Exhaust Filter XX%
Full Safely Drive at Highway Speeds to Remedy”
message will be displayed in the DID. If this message
is displayed, you will hear one chime to assist in
alerting you of this condition. By simply driving your
vehicle at highway speeds for up to 20 minutes, you
can remedy the condition in the particulate filter
system and allow your diesel engine and exhaust
after-treatment system to cleanse the filter to remove
the trapped PM and restore the system to normal
operating condition.
