What does it mean when the Great Wall Wingle 5's particulate filter is self-cleaning?
1 Answers
When the combination instrument displays the message "Self-cleaning in progress, please wait," it indicates that the vehicle has automatically initiated the regeneration procedure. Below is an introduction to the regeneration procedure: Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF): During driving, when the particulate matter captured in the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) reaches certain conditions, the vehicle will automatically initiate the regeneration procedure to fully burn the particulate matter, restoring the DPF's ability to continue capturing particles. Notes: To ensure the regeneration procedure is completed smoothly, please follow these driving recommendations until the message disappears: try to maintain a steady speed on roads with good conditions, and keep the engine speed around 2000 RPM. Avoid idling the engine as much as possible. Also, try to avoid stopping or turning off the engine.
