Operation
Starting regeneration of the diesel particulate filter manually (parked regeneration)
M54.00-2232-71
Press and hold the upper section of
“Manual regeneration” pushbutton (1)
for approximately 3 seconds.
Note:
Manual regeneration cannot be started
unless the engine oil and exhaust gas
temperatures are sufficiently high, the
AdBlue® is not frozen and the system is
functioning normally.
The green “Particulate filter” indicat-
or lamp
in the instrument cluster
comes on and engine speed is in-
creased.
When regeneration has been finished,
the green indicator lamp in the in-
strument cluster goes out and engine
speed drops to idling speed.
Note:
Regeneration will be aborted automatic-
ally if you deselect transmission neutral
position, release the parking brake or ac-
tivate the regeneration blocking function
by pressing the lower section of the “Re-
generation blocking” pushbutton.
Note:
Engine speed drops to idling speed if the
process is aborted.
Note:
Regeneration cannot be started unless
all necessary operating conditions have
been fulfilled, e.g. engine oil or exhaust
gas temperatures sufficiently high. If the
on-board computer prompts manual re-
generation at low outside temperatures,
start the regeneration process before the
vehicle is parked. If you were to park
the vehicle without initiating regenera-
tion, you would not be able to start the
regeneration process manually until after
a subsequent engine warm-up phase. If
you were to park the vehicle without initi-
ating regeneration and the AdBlue® were
frozen, you would not be able to start the
regeneration process manually until after
a thawing period of up to 60 minutes.
