Forced stationary regeneration
When Passive and Active Regeneration is not sufficient the system will prompt that a
forced stationary regeneration is required.
A forced stationary regeneration is performed at stand-still and triggered by the driver.
To prevent the engine derating power, perform regeneration of the DPF as soon as
safely possible.
Four different levels of pop-up messages on the master display are possible to warn
you the DPF must be regenerated stationary.
1. Soot level high. Regeneration required (yellow).
An alternative to overcome this is to take a motorway route which will
clear the soot via passive regeneration.
When ignored, this warning will re-appear at the next key cycles.
2. Soot level too high. Start regeneration immediately (yellow).
Again, to overcome this is to take the motorway route.
3. Soot level full. Regeneration required now (yellow).
The engine derates power and a forced stationary regeneration is
required as soon as safely possible.
4. Soot level full. Service required (red).
The engine derates power and an authorised DAF Service dealer must
service the vehicle.
It is no longer possible to perform a forced stationary regeneration.
Safety checks
Before starting a forced stationary regeneration, make sure that following safety checks
have been performed:
– The vehicle is parked outside with a minimum of 2 metres clear space around the
exhaust outlet.
– The park brake is applied.
– The engine is running at idle speed.
– The vehicle is NOT left unattended.
– The coolant temperature is above 65 degrees.
