Part: Diesel particulate filter

Video tutorial

Today we will explain how to use the nozzle for cleaning a DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter). The feature of the nozzle is the directional spray that allows cleaning the filter not only on the central or upper part but in all directions.

Open the front bonnet and insert the nozzle as far as possible into the vehicle until reaching the DPF box. Activate the nebulisation and let the filter clean itself. It will take about 5 minutes.

You will notice liquid falling from the underside of the vehicle. At the end of the cleaning, you can close the front bonnet; it is not necessary to dry it as it will dry on its own with the use of the vehicle.
