Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) Messages

• “DPF cleaning: safely keep the vehicle moving” message

on the EVIC + Engine emission filter lamp lighted solid

indicates that the exhaust particulate filter loading is

above the specified range and a regeneration is required.

• Safely Drive at Highway Speeds to Remedy (the

procedure lasts roughly 15 minutes at speed of about

40 mph (60 km/h) and with engine speed above

approximately 2000 rpm).

• When the exaust filter is overloaded the MIL lamp will

turn on and the “Service engine” message will display

in the EVIC, ETC lamp blinks and the PCM limits the

engine power to limit the likelihood of permanent

damage to the after-treatment system. To correct this

condition it will be necessary to have your vehicle

serviced by an authorized dealer.
