PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
The following devices are used for reducing diesel
fuel engine emissions:
❒
oxidising catalytic converter;
❒
exhaust gas recirculation system (EGR);
❒
particulate filter (DPF) (for versions/markets,
where provided).
WARNING
The diesel particulate filter (DPF)
reaches high temperatures during
operation. Do not park the car on grass, dry
leaves, pine needles or other flammable
material: fire hazard.
DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER (DPF)
The Diesel Particulate Filter is a mechanical filter,
integral with the exhaust system, that physically traps
particulates present in the exhaust gases of Diesel
engines.
The diesel particulate filter has been adopted to
eliminate almost all particulates in compliance with
current / future legal regulations.
During normal use of the vehicle, the engine
management control unit records a set of data
(travel time, type of route, temperatures, etc.) and it
will then calculate 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 the carbon particles.
The regeneration procedure is controlled
automatically by the engine management control unit
according to the filter conditions and vehicle use
conditions.
There may be a limited increase in the engine idle
speed during the regeneration, 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".
