Checks

After prolonged idling or driving at very low

speeds, you may occasionally notice water

vapour being emitted from the exhaust when

accelerating. This is of no consequence

to the running of the vehicle or to the

environment.

Saturation / Regeneration

If there is risk of blockage of the

Particle filter system (Diesel)

An addition to the catalytic converter, this

filter makes an active contribution to the

preservation of air quality by the retaining

of the unburnt pollutant particles. Black

exhaust fumes are thus no longer emitted.

filter, this warning lamp comes on

in the instrument panel.

This alert tells you that the particle filter

is starting to fill up (in conditions of urban

driving of exceptionally long duration: low

speeds, traffic jams etc.)

Because of the higher exhaust gas

temperature resulting from the normal

operation of the particle filter, it is

recommended that you do not park the

vehicle over inflammable materials (grass,

dry leaves, pine needles, ...) so as to avoid

any risk of fire.

This filter, fitted to the exhaust system,

accumulates particles of soot. The engine

control unit manages the automatic

periodic elimination of the soot particles

(regeneration).

To regenerate the filter, it is advised to drive

as soon as possible, when traffic conditions

and the law permit, at a speed of at least

40 mph (around 60 km/h), with an engine

speed above 2 000 rpm for about fifteen

minutes (until the warning lamp and/or the

message disappears).

The regeneration procedure is invoked

according to the quantity of particles

accumulated and the driving conditions

of the vehicle. During this phase, you

may notice some unusual phenomena -

increased idling speed, cooling fan running,

increase in smoke and higher exhaust gas

temperature - which does not affect the

operation of the vehicle or the environment.

If possible, avoid switching off the engine

before the end of regeneration of the

filter; repeated interruptions could cause

premature deterioration of the engine oil. It

is not recommended to end regeneration of

the filter with the vehicle stationary.

Operating fault

If this alert persists, do not ignore the

warning; it indicates that a fault has occurred

in the exhaust / particle filter system.

Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
