Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) Messages

This engine meets all required 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 Con-

trol Module (PCM). The PCM manages engine combus-

tion to allow the exhaust system’s catalyst to trap and

burn Particulate Matter (PM) pollutants, with no input or

interaction on your part.

WARNING!

A hot exhaust system can start a fire if you park over
materials that can burn. Such materials might be
grass or leaves coming into contact with your exhaust
system. Do not park or operate your vehicle in areas
where your exhaust system can contact anything that
can burn.
