feet) clearance from the sides and top of the vehicle to any
combustibles. Make sure that no one is in the immediate vicinity of the
exhaust system. Hot exhaust gases which can occur during a
stationary regeneration can cause an explosion, ignite a fire or lead to
serious injury to you and/or bystanders.
NOTE: Typical operation areas or materials that can contain explosive
vapours or flammable materials, or where there may be people in close
proximity of the vehicle are:
– Fuel depots.
– Grain elevators.
– Dry grass, leaves or trees.
– Waste transfer stations or dumps.
– Car parks.
– Loading and unloading terminals.
How to initiate a stationary regeneration
NOTE: The driver of the vehicle is responsible for taking the necessary
precautions, being aware of the surroundings and making sure that no
combustibles (materials or vapours) or bystanders are close by before
initiating forced stationary regeneration.
– Pull the vehicle over at a safe location.
– Get out of the cabin and walk all around the vehicle to make sure that you are at
least 2 m (6.5 feet) away from all combustible materials and no one is in the
immediate vicinity of the exhaust.
– Get back into the cabin.
– Press the upper portion of the 'regenerate DPF switch' (located on the control
panel), follow the instructions on the post-warning indication and operate the switch
for a second time to initiate a forced stationary regeneration event.
– Stay close to the vehicle as long as the regeneration is ongoing.
NOTE: During a forced stationary regeneration, engine rpm and noise
increase.
The bar graph in the menu of the master display shows the forced stationary
regeneration progress; see section 'Menu overview' in the chapter 'Master
display'. On average it will take 45 to 90 minutes to complete a forced
stationary regeneration. Please do not interrupt a stationary regeneration
NOTE: When the vehicle has been stationary with a running engine for a
long period of time (overnight idling, for example), the system may open a
pop-up for clean-up of the soot filter.
Soot filter contaminated. Regeneration required now
A yellow pop-up screen showing the DPF warning symbol and the text 'Soot filter
contaminated' is shown in the master display. This pop-up screen is followed by a post-
warning indication with the text 'Regeneration required now'.
