DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) system
: If equipped
When the deposit collected by the filter reaches a predetermined
amount, it is automatically regenerated.
WARNING
Q During regeneration
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in serious injury such as burns caused by the hot
exhaust pipe and exhaust gases, or may cause a fire.
O Do not carry out regeneration when the vehicle is in an enclosed area,
such as a garage.
O Do not touch the exhaust pipe and exhaust gases during regeneration.

OIf the DPF system warning message “DPF full See owner’s manual”
appears on the multi-information display, follow the procedure
below to regenerate.
When regenerating the filter during driving the vehicle
To regenerate the filter, the following driving methods are recom-
mended.*1
• By driving continuously (for example, at around 60 km/h [37 mph]
for 20 to 30 minutes).
• By avoiding short trips, or by driving continuously (leaving the
engine running for long periods of time).
Check the engine is warmed up before driving the vehicle to regenerate
the filter. If the engine is cold, warm up the engine by driving the vehicle
downshifting to increase the engine speed.*2
The warning message will disappear on the multi-information display when
regeneration is complete. However, depending on the driving condition
such as heavy traffic, the amount of accumulated deposit increases and
the warning message may not disappear on the multi-information display.
If the warning message does not disappear on the multi-information dis-
play after driving, press the DPF system switch to manually regenerate the
filter.
Regeneration during driving cannot be performed when the vehicle is
higher than 4000 m (13124 ft.) above sea level.
*1: When driving, pay sufficient attention to weather, road conditions, ter-
rain and traffic conditions, and drive according to traffic laws.
*2: Depending on the situation, it may be necessary to downshift until the
engine speed is increased to 3000 rpm. If the engine coolant tempera-
ture or exhaust gas temperature is low, it may take a long time to
regenerate, or regeneration may be impossible.

When regenerating the filter by pressing the DPF system switch
Stop the vehicle in a safe place.
Shift the shift lever to P (automatic transmission) or N (manual
transmission), and firmly set the parking brake.
Do not stop the engine.
Also, make sure that there are no flammable materials near the exhaust
pipe. ( P. 369)
Check the engine is warmed up. If the engine is cold, warm up the engine
by depressing the accelerator pedal.*1
Press the DPF system switch.
The DPF system warning message
shown in the illustration appears
on the multi-information display,
and the idling engine speed will
increase.
Regeneration will take around 15 -
40 minutes to complete.*2
When the DPF system warning message disappears on the multi-
information display, the idling engine speed will have finished return-
ing to normal.
The DPF system switch may not operate when the vehicle is higher
than 4000 m (13123 ft.) above sea level.
*1: Depending on the situation, it may be necessary to depress the acceler-
ator pedal until the engine speed is increased to 3000 rpm. If the engine
coolant temperature or exhaust gas temperature is low, it may take a
long time to regenerate, or regeneration may be impossible.
*2: Time required for regeneration differs in accordance with the outside
temperature. Also, if the engine speed is still approximately 2000 rpm
10 minutes after pressing the DPF system switch, the exhaust gas tem-
perature may be low. In this case, depress the accelerator pedal to run
the engine at approximately 3000 rpm for a while.
When depressing the accelerator pedal, regeneration will be stopped. In
this case, restart regeneration.
