A particle filter regeneration is only necessary when the load state for the particle filter is over 40 % and no regeneration has been done automatically. This can accour when the vehicle often is driven in urban traffic. The regeneration lamp is activated on the instrument panel during the regeneration procedure.
Note:
The load state for the particle filter is available in the data list.
If the load state is over 90 % a manual regeneration should not be proceeded due to fire risk in the particle filter.
The function will be proceeded during driving.
The regeneration will take about 15 minutes to complete.
The regeneration will end if the ignition is switched off.
Test prerequisites:
Engine on.
Engine at normal operating temperature.

The regeneration will take about 15 minutes to complete.
