Fiat DOBLO 2016, Owner'S Handbook Manual

Page: 70 / 298

During normal use of the vehicle, the
Powertrain Control Module records
a set of data (travel time, type of route,
temperatures reached etc.) and
calculates how much particulate has
been trapped by the filter.
Since this filter physically traps
particulate, it should be regenerated
(cleaned) at regular intervals by burning
carbon particles. The regeneration
procedure is controlled automatically by
the Powertrain Control Module
according to the filter conditions and
vehicle usage conditions.
During regeneration, the following may
occur: a limited increase in the engine
speed, activation of the fan, a limited
increase in fumes and high
temperatures at the exhaust.
These are not faults; they do not impair
vehicle performance or damage the
environment.
If the dedicated message is displayed,
refer to paragraph "Warning lights
and messages".
