Mercedes-Benz Trucks – Euro VI Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) All Mercedes-Benz Euro VI trucks have a Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF). This filter collects particulates generated by the engine in normal driving to prevent their escape to the atmosphere. Regeneration is the process used to remove the collected particulates from the filter, and involves increasing the temperature in the filter to oxidise the particulates. Regeneration can take place in three ways:

To prevent active regeneration or stop manual regeneration:

• Passive regeneration – When the temperature in the exhaust is high enough to oxidise the collected particulates without intervention. This process occurs without driver intervention and does not show any messages on the instrument cluster. • Active regeneration – When the level of particulates is high enough and the vehicle operating conditions allow, the vehicle will increase the exhaust temperature and start the regeneration process. This happens automatically without driver intervention and is normal. The driver is informed of this process with a green symbol on the instrument cluster 4

• Press the lower section of the regeneration button 3 . The indicator light 2 will light up to confirm this has been done. To start manual regeneration:

• Stop the vehicle, paying attention to road and traffic conditions, and keep the engine running. • Maintain a distance of at least 1 metre to other vehicles, OFF objects and all flammable materials • Apply the parking OFF brake and select neutral, making sure the accelerator pedal is not pressed and that any power take-off is not engaged • Press the upper section of the regeneration button 1 for approximately 3 seconds • The green symbol 4 lights up on the instrument cluster and the engine speed is increased

• Manual regeneration – Stationary regeneration is possible if operating conditions do not allow the above processes to deal adequately with the collected particulates. This is only possible when the vehicle prompts you to do so via the instrument cluster and lasts between 30 and 60 minutes, during which time the vehicle cannot be driven.

• Note that manual regeneration will only begin if certain conditions are met. • During regeneration, the engine note may change • Regeneration will be interrupted if you release the parking brake, select a gear or press the regeneration block button 3 Start • When manual regeneration is finished the engine returns regeneration to idling speed, and the green symbol 4 goes out High engine High particulate filter fill level
