Particle filter regeneration during driving


This function cleans the particle filter from soot particles by burning them off using an increase in the exhaust temperature. In certain driving conditions, the particle filter can not be cleaned automatically, e.g., in continuous city driving. Then this function is used to force a regeneration.
