II Particulate filter: System fault See own-
er's manual
When the II symbol illum inates, you can al-
ter your driving style to assist the filte r self-
cleaning process . Drive for approx imately 15
minutes with the selector lever in the 5 posi-
tion at a minimum speed of 37 mph (60 km/
h) and an engine speed of approximately
2,000 RPM. The temperature increase that
will resu lt from this can burn off the soot in
the filter . The symbol will switch off when the
cleaning is successful. After a successful
cleaning , there is no need to bring the car to
an author ized dealer or qualified workshop
because this is part of normal vehicle ope ra-
tion .
If the symbol
II does not switch off, see your
author ized dealer or other qualif ied workshop
to have the problem corrected.

late filter , refer to ¢
