The system includesa self-cleaning function that runsautomatically during driving withoutany notification.The filter is cleaned by periodicallyburning off the soot particles at hightemperature. This process takesplace automatically under set drivingconditions and may take more than15 minutes. Autostop is not availableand fuel consumption may be higherduring this period. The emission ofsmells and smoke during this processis normal.Under certain driving conditions, e.g.short distances, the system cannotclean itself automatically.
