Diesel Particulate Filter
The engine is equipped with a
Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) that,
by design, will filter or trap
particulates. The DPF is under the
vehicle in the exhaust system.
Depending on a number of factors
monitored by the engine computer,
the DPF will need to be cleaned of
accumulated solids. When a
cleaning is needed, the engine
computer will initiate a cleaning
action by warming the exhaust gas
temperature. This feature has been
designed to operate automatically,
with limited operator involvement or
awareness.
