Diesel particulate filter warning
light (where fitted)
When the warning light illuminates, it indicates that
particulate matter has accumulated to the specified
amount of the limit in the diesel particulate filter.
Drive the vehicle at more than approximately 60 km/h
(37.5 MPH) as soon as safely possible until the
warning light turns off. Always conform to local regu-
lations. Particulate matter collected in the filter can-
not be burned under low speed driving conditions.
After having burned the particulate matter com-
pletely, the warning light will turn off.
See “Diesel particulate filter (where fitted)” in the
“5. Starting and driving” section for further details.

SWITCH
Note that the above illustration is for LHD models.
Depending on the number of occupants in the ve-
hicle and the load it is carrying, the headlight axis
may be higher than desired. If the vehicle is travel-
ling on a hilly road, the headlights may directly hit the
rear-view mirror of the vehicle ahead or the wind-
screen of an oncoming vehicle. The light axis can be
lowered using the switch located on the driver’s
side of the instrument panel, next to the steering
wheel.
The higher the number designated on the switch,
the lower the axis.
When travelling with no heavy load on a flat road,
select position 0.
