Regeneration
CAUTION
During the aftertreatment DPF
regeneration, the exhaust gas temperature
will be elevated. DO NOT park the vehicle
with the exhaust outlet near ammable
objects such as trees, awnings, etc. that
could be damaged by elevated exhaust
gas temperatures.
CAUTION
If the vehicle is PARKED in a location that
may be hazardous when a parked
regeneration begins (i.e., in close
proximity to ammable materials or gases,
inside tunnels, parked under ammable
objects, etc.), the aftertreatment DPF
regeneration should be stopped. If
regeneration is stopped by the vehicle
operator, it must be initiated at a later time
when the vehicle is in a safer location.
Regenerations that are stopped and never
restarted at a later time, however, will
require that the vehicle be taken to an
authorized dealer to have the
aftertreatment parked regeneration
manually started with special service
tools.
