1. Park the vehicle in a safe place and warm up the
engine.
2. Firmly set the parking brake and place the gear-
shift lever in the neutral position if your vehicle is
equipped with a manual transmission, or place
the selector lever in the “P” position if your vehi-
cle is equipped with an automatic transmission.
Wait 20 seconds. Do not depress the accelera-
tor pedal. If you are in a manual transmission
vehicle, depress neither the accelerator pedal
nor the clutch pedal.
3. With the engine still in operation, continuously
press the “ON” side of the DPF cleaning switch
until the indicator lamp stops flashing
and shifts to continuous illumination. The engine
will increase its idling speed (to approx. 1500
rpm) to start the parked DPF regeneration. The
exhaust brake valve may also operate during
the parked DPF regeneration.
NOTE:
The parked DPF regeneration sequence does not
start under the following conditions:
• The engine coolant temperature is too low.
(Then the engine must be warmed up.)
• The accelerator pedal or clutch pedal (manual
transmission vehicle) is depressed.
• The parking brake is released.
4. The idling speed of the engine returns to the
original idling speed (approx. 650 rpm) and the
indicator lamp goes out. This indicates
completion of the parked DPF regeneration.
5. Once the parked DPF regeneration is com-
pleted, you may drive the vehicle normally.
6. If you need to suspend the parked DPF regener-
ation before completion of the sequence,
repress the “ON” side of the DPF cleaning
switch or depress the accelerator pedal or clutch
pedal (manual transmission vehicle).
NOTE:
When you deliberately suspend the parked DPF
regeneration, complete the remaining part of the
sequence without delay by performing the above
steps again.
