tem.

SYSTEM

The exhaust emission control sys-

tem reduces PM (Particulate Mat-

ter) and NOx by collecting PM

through the filter that is installed in

the PM reduction device and by

dissolving NOx into water and

nitrogen using the aftertreatment

SCR system.

When a certain amount of soot

accumulates in the DPF, the DPF

system automatically switches into

the cleaning mode to burn (regen-

erate) the collected soot. The fre-

quency of the occurrence of the

aftertreatment DPF regeneration

differs according to the manner in

which the vehicle is driven.

The aftertreatment SCR system

reduces NOx by adding a mixture

of air and diesel exhaust fluid

(DEF) in the exhaust muffler to

make NOx that is included in

exhaust gas and is dissolved into

water and nitrogen.

3 - 12

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

BEFORE DRIVING YOUR VEHICLE

Precautions on handling the DPF

When a certain amount of soot that

is included in the exhaust gas accu-

mulates in the aftertreatment DPF,

the DPF automatically burns (regen-

erates) the collected soot.

This prevents the excessive accu-

mulation of soot and keeps the

cleaning function of the DPF in good

condition.

The DPF automatically burns

(regenerates) the collected soot.

WARNING

stopped or while the system is

around the muffler and
