dieSel pARTiCle FilTeR

Diesel cars are equipped with a particle filter, which results in more efficient emission control. The particles in the exhaust gases are collected in the filter during normal driving. So-called "regeneration" is started automati- cally in order to burn away the particles and empty the filter. Engine power may be slightly reduced during regeneration.

BliS ??? Blind SpOT inFORMATiOn SYSTeM*

If the BLIS indicator lamp illuminates despite there being no vehicle within the blind spot, the cause could be for example, reflection from shiny wet road surface, own shadow on light road surface or low sun in the camera.

ReQUiRed.
