Notes for Muffler Filter

Muffler Filter
The muffler filter removes particulate matters (PM) in
the exhaust gas. The muffler filter traps PM, and it is
automatically regenerated by burning PM when the set
amount of PM is accumulated in the filter. Follow the
instructions below to prevent the muffler filter from being
damaged.

Exhaust gas from the muffler filter, muffler and exhaust

piping becomes hot during and right after engine
running and filter regeneration (burning PM). Keep
away from the direction of the exhaust piping and its
vicinity during the filter regeneration. Be careful not to
let your skin contact with any hot gas from the exhaust
piping. It may cause severe burns.

Do not directly touch water coming out of the muffler filter.

The water is mildly-acidic by oxidation catalyst mounted
in the muffler filter. If filter water spills on your skin,
immediately flush it out with clean water.
