DPF (PARTICULATE FILTER) CLEANING UNDERWAY
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The warning light switches on when the ignition key
is turned to MAR, but it should switch off after a few
seconds.
The warning light switches on constantly to inform
the driver that the DPF system needs to eliminate
the trapped pollutants (particulate) through the
regeneration process.
A specific message will appear on the display when
the warning light comes on (for versions/markets,
where provided).
WARNING Failure to follow the required
procedure when the DPF warning light comes on
for a mileage equal to or greater than 30 km or
for a cumulative time equal to or greater than 2
hours, may result in the warning light coming
on with consequent damage to the DPF device.
Remember that if the warning light is on, it
is necessary to go to the Fiat Dealership to
restore the correct function of the DPF.
The warning light does not come on during every DPF
regeneration, but only when driving conditions require
that the driver is notified. The warning light will go off
if the vehicle stays in motion until regeneration has
been completed. The process normally takes about 15
minutes.
Optimum conditions for completing the process are
achieved by travelling at 60 km/h with engine revs
above 2000 rpm. If this warning light comes on, it does
not mean the vehicle is defective, so there is no need to
take it to a garage.
