■When the Stop & Start system is operating
● Keep the shift lever in N (manual transmission), depress the brake pedal
and apply the parking brake when necessary while the engine is stopped
by the Stop & Start system (while the Stop & Start indicator is on).
● Do not allow anyone to leave the vehicle while the engine is stopped by

ever to make effective use of the system it is recommended to select a lower
shift range.
■ The system will not operate when
● The transfer mode is in H2.
● The rear differential is locked. (if equipped)
■ If the downhill assist control system indicator flashes
● In the following situations, the indicator flashes and the system will not oper-
ate:
• The transfer mode is not in L4 or H4.

DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) system
◆Regeneration
Regeneration is performed as necessary in accordance with driving
conditions.
◆System characteristics
The DPF system has the following characteristics:
● Idle speed increases during regeneration
● The smell of the exhaust gas differs from that of a conventional
diesel vehicle
● White smoke may be emitted from the exhaust pipe during
regeneration. However, this does not indicate a malfunction.
● If the DPF system warning light turns on (vehicles without multi-
information display) or the DPF system warning message “DPF
FULL MANUAL REGENERATION REQUIRED SEE OWNER’S
MANUAL”/“DPF full Manual regeneration required See owner’s
manual” appears on the display (vehicles with multi-information dis-
play), follow the procedure below to regenerate.
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. 436)
Check the engine is warmed up. If the engine is cold, warm up the engine
by depressing the accelerator pedal.*1
: If equipped
When the deposit collected by the filter reaches a predetermined
amount, it is automatically regenerated.

Press the DPF system switch.
Vehicles without multi-information display
The DPF system warning light will change from solid to slow flashing, and
the idling engine speed will increase.
Vehicles with multi-information display
The DPF system warning message
shown in the illustration appears
on the display, and the idling
engine speed will increase.
Regeneration will take around 30 - 40 minutes to complete.*2
When the DPF system warning light or the DPF system warning mes-
sage goes out, the idling engine speed will have finished returning 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 accelera-
tor pedal until the engine speed is increased to 3000 rpm. If the engine
coolant temperature or exhaust gas tem perature 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 tem-
perature. Also, if the engine speed is still approximately 2000 rpm 10 min-
utes after pressing the DPF system switch, the exhaust gas temperature
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.
