I - INSTRUCTIONS FOR CARRYING OUT FORCED
REGENERATION OF THE PARTICLE FILTER
Precautions to be taken during forced regeneration
of the particle filter
IMPORTANT
During forced regeneration of the particle filter,
the temperature of the exhaust pipe rises significantly.
Always use one of the two kits approved for the
high temperatures reached during forced regeneration,
whether the operation is carried out in
the workshop using an exhaust gas extractor, or
outside the workshop.
Ensure that when in use, the kit is not touching
the rear bumper when carrying out forced regeneration
of the particle filter. |
Twin exhaust pipe kit special features
Note:
When using a twin exhaust pipe kit (1) on a
single exhaust pipe:
- that an exhaust gas extractor is fitted to openings
(2) and (3) if forced regeneration is being
carried out in the workshop,
- that openings (2) and (3) are positioned to
direct the hot exhaust gases away from another
vehicle or a person, if the operation is being
carried out outside the workshop.
