regeneration. This is not a problem with the
vehicle; however, it indicates that the driver
needs to start a parked DPF regeneration
to prevent equipment damage caused by
soot build up. If the DPF lamp turns ON
and the driver is prompted to through driver
notifications, perform a parked DPF
Regeneration.
CAUTION
If you ignore the warning lamp and do
not initiate regeneration at the soon-
est, safest possible time, the DPF will
become increasingly clogged with soot
and can lead to severe engine derate.
Failure to comply may result in equip-
ment or property damage.
Extended engine idling may also increase
hydrocarbon deposits and moisture in the
DPF. The engine will increase rpm
automatically, regardless if the DPF lamp is
on or off, to remove these hydrocarbon
deposits and moisture. The engine speed
will remain elevated for 20-60 minutes. If
necessary, the rpms may be lowered by
briefly depressing the throttle, clutch, or
brake pedal. If the driver cancels the
automatic cycle using the pedals, the
system will restart the cycle 10 minutes
later with increased rpm until all of the
deposits are removed from the DPF. If the
vehicle cannot perform an automatic cycle,
the driver may be prompted with message
to regenerate the DPF with a "Do Not
Drive" message. The driver must complete
a regeneration before driving. If the "Do
Not Drive" message is ignored and a DPF
regeneration is not fully completed before
driving, there is a high possibility of
equipment damage.
If an engine must idle for an extended
period of time, idle the engine at the lowest
rpm that maintains the engine coolant at
150°F (70°C), or above.
CAUTION
DO NOT idle the engine for excessive-
ly long periods. Long periods of idling,
more than 10 minutes, can cause poor
engine performance.
Following these guidelines will help reduce
engine wear during idling and the
frequency of DPF regenerations.
Engine Shutdown
Prevent engine damage by following these
shutdown precautions.
NOTE
DO NOT shut off the engine immedi-
ately. A hot engine stores a great
amount of heat and it does not cool
down immediately after it is shut off.
Always cool the engine down before
shutting it off. You will greatly increase
its service life.
Idle the engine at 1,000 rpm for four
minutes. Then low idle for 30 seconds
before shutdown. This will allow circulating
coolant and lubricating oil to carry heat
away from the cylinder head, valves,
pistons, cylinder liners, turbocharger, and
bearings. This way you can prevent engine
damage that may result from uneven
cooling.
