Cleaning of Exhaust Filter
The exhaust filter retains the smut coming from
the exhaust gas and decreases the emission
values. With the exhaust filter cleaning
operation which can be performed
automatically or manually, the smut retained in
the filter is burned with regular intervals so that
the filter is emptied before filling up and being
clogged. In this operation, the exhaust gas is
heated by the engine and smut is burned.
Driver is informed about the exhaust filter
cleaning of the vehicle through the messages
displayed on the indicator panel and explained
in detain in the following sections
Since the exhaust gas temperature is high
during the exhaust filter cleaning; ensure that
the vehicle is not in the same place with
flammable (dry grass, leaves), inflammable
and explosive materials or in enclosed space
Otherwise, fire risk may occur.
Ensure that vehicle exhaust cleaning is not
performed in locations like hazardous material
loading and unloading places or fuelling
stations. When necessary, activate the exhaust
filter cleaning prevention using
exhaust filter
cleaning prevention button.
Changes may be observed in engine and
exhaust sounds during exhaust filter cleaning.
During exhaust filter cleaning and right after
the cleaning; a metallic smell or crackling
sounds may come out of the exhaust side.
Automatic Cleaning of Exhaust Filter
Exhaust filter cleaning requirement is
automatically determined according to the
amount of soot accumulated in the filter, the
distance the vehicle has travelled, amount of
fuel consumed and the engine running hours.
In this case, exhaust filter cleaning starts
automatically. During automatic filter cleaning,
the instrument panel shall display "Exhaust
filter cleaning" warning for information. When
this warning is displayed, vehicle should be
driven normally.
When you see the "
Exhaust filter cleaning"
warning, you should continue driving normally;
there's no need to idle the vehicle and wait.
If your vehicle undergoes 2 (or more)
automatic filter cleaning in the same day, the
driving conditions of the vehicle (the path it is
used on, speed etc.) may not be suitable for
automatic cleaning. In that case, it is
recommended to perform manual exhaust
cleaning. Manual exhaust cleaning is
recommended especially for vehicles that
cover short distances and run idle for
prolonged periods of time (construction, mixer
series etc.).
