PURPOSE OF USE

• Any other job on any systems other than as mentioned above.
DO NOT USE on engines with low-pressure EGR systems, as detergent substances at the outlet of the DPF/
FAP® would be sucked back into the engine feeding system, which may damage it.

WORK AREA SAFETY

Clean the DPF/FAP® filter outdoors or in places with sufficient air recirculation.
Do not use exhaust suction pipes, because foam may come out of the exhaust pipe of the vehicle following cleaning;
provide a suitable foam collecting vessel.
