Starting the engine

If the LED indicator fails to illuminate at start

up, a system fault may be present. Contact

your Land Rover dealer for assistance.

DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER (DPF)

Diesel vehicles equipped with a particulate filter

have more efficient emission control. The

particles in the exhaust gases are collected in

the filter during normal driving.

ECO STALL RECOVERY

In the event that the engine stalls, it can be

restarted by fully depressing the clutch pedal.

When a DPF message is displayed, the filter

requires a regeneration cycle to clean itself.

This requires the engine to have reached

normal operating temperature. Regeneration

takes place automatically at an interval of

approximately 300-900 km (190-560 miles)

depending on driving conditions.

Note: Automatic stall restart will only operate

once. If the engine is stalled a second time the

engine must be restarted normally.

EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM

Regeneration procedure

Land Rover vehicles are fitted with emission

and evaporative control systems. In many

countries it is unlawful to tamper, modify or

replace such equipment and legal penalties

apply if the laws are flouted.

The regeneration procedure produces

high temperatures in the DPF. Heat can

be felt radiating from beneath the

vehicle, which is normal. The heat

generated could be sufficient to start a

fire when in close proximity to

maintain these systems.

combustible material such as long dry

grass, paper etc.

Exhaust fumes contain poisonous

substances which can cause

unconsciousness and may even be

fatal.

Regeneration normally takes 10-20 minutes

and is best achieved if the vehicle is driven

steadily at speeds between 60km/h (40mph)

and 112km/h (70mph).

ꢀ

Do not inhale exhaust gases.

Regeneration may take longer if the average

speed is reduced to 50km/h (30mph).

Do not start or leave the engine running in

an enclosed unventilated area.

Driving short distances or in cold weather

ꢀ

Do not drive the vehicle with the taildoor

open.

In these conditions the engine may not reach

normal operating temperature. Regeneration of

the diesel particulate filter will not take place

and the filter will not be cleaned. If the filter

requires regeneration but current driving style

is not appropriate to perform it, a warning

triangle will illuminate on the instrument panel

and the message DPF Full. See manual, will

be displayed. This does not indicate a fault

condition. Start regeneration by driving the
