high load driving with particulate mat-
ter accumulating.
●Engine output (engine speed) is
restricted when a certain amount of
particulate matter accumulates, how-
ever, it is possible to drive the vehicle
unless the malfunction indicator lamp
comes on.
●Particulate matter can accumulate
more quickly if the vehicle is fre-
quently driven short trips or at low
speeds, or if the engine is regularly
started in an extremely cold environ-
ment. Excessive accumulation of par-
ticulate matter can be prevented by
periodically driving long distances
continuously with intermittent releas-
ing of the accelerator pedal, such as
when driving on highways and free-
ways.
■If the malfunction indicator lamp
comes on or “Engine Maintenance
Required Visit Your Dealer” is
shown on the multi-information
display
The amount of accumulated particulate
matter has exceeded a certain level.
Have the vehicle inspected by any
GPF (Gasoline Particu-
late Filter) system
*
The GPF system collects par-
ticulate matter in the exhaust
gas by using an exhaust gas
filter.
The system will operate to
regenerate the filter automati-
cally, depending on the vehicle
conditions.
