tion procedure lasts about 2 to 3 minutes and is performed without driver
interference.
If the engine control unit detects that the operating conditions for a regen-
eration (combustion of deposited soot particles) of the diesel particle fiter
are not optimal, e.g. slow city driving, a warning light in the instrument
cluster is illuminated
. In order to clean the diesel particle filter, the
vehicle should be driven at an even speed of at least 60 km/h for approx.
5 - 10 minutes. The diesel particle filter is most effectively cleaned if the
vehicle is driven in the 4th or 5th gear within the range of 2 000 to 3 000
rpm.
If these conditions are not met, the warning light
does not go out and
after 10 minutes the warning light
begins to flash.

is shown in the information display*. Afterwards the engine
control unit shifts the engine into the emergency mode, which only has a
reduced power output. After switching the ignition off and on again the
warning light
comes on.
Have the vehicle inspected without delay by your specialist garage.
WARNING
•
Please pay attention to the traffic regulations and speed limits.
•
The diesel particle filter achieves very high temperatures.
Therefore do not park at points where the hot filter comes into
direct contact with dry grass or other combustible materials - risk
of fire!
•
Use neither protective paint for chassis nor anti-corrosion
agent, in order to treat the exhaust system, the heat shields or the
diesel particle filter. The high temperatures can cause the coating
to ignite!
Note
•
The servicing of the diesel particle filter and the replenishing of the
additive are performed by a specialist garage in the framework of the
regular inspection, see Service shedule.
•
It is prohibited to use biofuel (RME) and diesel fuel mixture for diesel
vehicles which are fitted with diesel particle filter.

page 121. Start the engine just as soon as
the indicator light goes out.
The glow plug indicator light will come on for about 1 second if the engine
is at a
normal operating temperature
or if the outside temperature is
above +5°C. This means that you can start the engine
right away
.
There is a fault in the glow plug system if the indicator light
does not
come on at all or lights up continuously. Contact a specialist garage as
soon as possible to obtain assistance.
There is a system fault in the engine control system if the warning light
has started to flash while driving. The engine management system selects
an emergency programme which enables you to drive to the nearest
specialist garage by adopting a gentle style of driving.
