EXHAUST REGENERATION
This engine meets all required EPA diesel engine emissions standards. To achieve
these emissions standards, your vehicle is equipped with a state-of-the-art engine
and exhaust system. These systems are seamlessly integrated into your vehicle and
managed by the Powertrain Control Module (PCM). Additionally, your vehicle has the
ability to alert you to additional maintenance required on your vehicle or engine.
Refer to the following messages that may be displayed on your Electronic Vehicle
Information Center (EVIC).
Exhaust System — Regeneration Required Now
This message Indicates that the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) reached 80% of its

By simply driving your vehicle at highway speeds for up to 20 minutes, you can
remedy the condition in the particulate filter system and allow your diesel engine and
exhaust after-treatment system to cleanse the filter to remove the trapped PM and
restore the system to normal operating condition.
