If the engine is cold then the idle
speed will automatically be increased
in order to heat the catalytic
converter as quickly as possible. This
ensures that vehicle emissions are
kept to an absolute minimum.
The idle speed will slowly decrease
to the normal level as the catalytic
converter warms up.
STARTING A DIESEL
ENGINE
Cold or hot engine
All vehicles
Note: When the temperature is
below -15ºC, you may need to crank
the engine for up to 25 seconds. If
you consistently operate the vehicle
in such temperatures, we
recommend that you have an engine
block heater fitted.
Note: Continue cranking the engine
until it starts.
Note: You can only operate the
starter for a maximum of 30 seconds
at a time.
Switch the ignition on and
wait until the glow plug
indicator goes off.
Vehicles with a manual
transmission
Note: Do not touch the accelerator
pedal.
1. Fully depress the clutch pedal.
2. Start the engine.
Vehicles with an automatic
transmission
1. Select park or neutral.
2. Fully depress the brake pedal.
3. Start the engine.
DIESEL PARTICULATE
FILTER (DPF)
The DPF forms part of the emissions
reduction systems fitted to your
vehicle. It filters harmful diesel
particulates (soot) from the exhaust
gas.
Regeneration
WARNING
Do not park your vehicle over
dry leaves or dry grass. The
regeneration process requires very
high exhaust gas temperatures and
the exhaust will continue to radiate a
considerable amount of heat after
you have switched the engine off.
This is a potential fire hazard.
Unlike a normal filter which requires
periodic replacement, the DPF has
been designed to regenerate, or
clean itself to maintain operating
efficiency. The regeneration process
takes place automatically. However,
some driving conditions mean that
you must support the regeneration
process.
