Special features of diesel versions fitted with a particle filter
SPECIAL FEATURES OF DIESEL VERSIONS FITTED WITH A PARTICLE FILTER
Do not park the vehicle or
run the engine in locations
where combustible sub-
stances or materials such as
grass or leaves can come into con-
tact with the hot exhaust system.
Diesel engine speed
Diesel engines are fitted with injection
equipment which prevents the engine
speed being exceeded irrespective of
the gear selected.
If the message “Check antipollution” is
displayed on the instrument panel ac-
companied by the Ä and ©
warning light; consult an approved
dealer straight away.
When driving, depending on the fuel
grade used, it is possible that white
smoke may be emitted.
This is due to the exhaust particle filter
being cleaned automatically, and does
not affect the way the vehicle runs.
Precautions to be taken in
winter
To avoid faults in icy weather:
– ensure that the battery is always fully
charged,
– always keep the diesel tank rela
-
tively full to prevent water vapour
condensing in it and accumulating at
the bottom of the tank.
Depending on the vehicle, the Ü
warning light lights up on the instrument
panel to show that there is a risk of the
particle filter becoming clogged.
To clean the particle filter, for 60 miles
(100 km) after the warning light comes
on drive at an average speed of at least
42 mph (70 km/h), where traffic condi-
tions and the speed limit will allow, until
the warning light goes out.
You may need to restart the operation if
the vehicle has to stop before the warn-
ing light goes out.
As an example, in this case, the clean-
ing operation lasts for up to 20 min-
utes.
