Performing a Parked Regeneration - EPA07
Perform a Parked Regeneration as follows:
WARNING: ENGINE EXHAUST
To avoid injury from inhaling engine exhaust, always operate the
engine in a well-ventilated area. Engine exhaust is toxic.
WARNING: HOT EXHAUST
During parked regeneration the exhaust gases will be extremely
HOT and could cause a fire if directed at combustible materials.
The vehicle must be parked outside.
NOTE: Under factory default settings, when the Diesel Particulate Filter
(DPF) Regeneration Lamp is not illuminated, the regeneration request
switch is disabled.
NOTE: The driver MUST stay with the vehicle throughout the regeneration
process.
NOTE: Not all vehicles may be equipped with a Regeneration Request
Switch due to application or user specification.
NOTE: The procedure will take approximately 30 to 40 minutes (depending
on engine type and the amount of soot accumulated in the DPF).
When the parked regeneration request is accepted, the Diesel Particulate Filter
(DPF) Regeneration lamp will turn ON one time for one second and then turn off
for the remainder of the parked regeneration. The High Exhaust System
Temperature (HEST) lamp will flash for one second every ten seconds and
eventually become solid when the tailpipe temperature is above 525°C (977°F).
The engine speed will increase to 1100 RPM for all DD Platform engines. The
regeneration will take 30-40 minutes. The regeneration is complete when the
engine returns to low idle and the DPF lamp remains OFF. The HEST lamp will
remain ON, but the vehicle may be driven.
NOTE: A parked regeneration will STOP and the engine will return to low
idle if any of the following happens:
• The key is turned to the OFF position
• The vehicle is put into gear
• The clutch is cycled
• The parking brake is released
