Forced regeneration

Regeneration of the particle emission filter is a function that can be started with the diagnostic equipment. This function burns particles present in the particle emission filter in order to clean it. Some driving conditions are unfavourable to automatic regeneration, e.g. urban driving. In these cases the forced regeneration procedure can be used to avoid clogging of the particle emission filter.
Observe:
This operation results in very high exhaust temperatures. Perform the operation outdoors and without exhaust gas extraction take-off.
