2. CAUTIONS
▶ Standard pattern of soot accumulation
1. If the CDPF cannot reach the regeneration temperature due to low speed driving or other
reason during the regeneration process, the soot is continuously accumulated in the CDPF.
2. When this condition continues and the CDPF is overloaded with soot, the engine warning
lamp blinks to inform this situation to the driver.
In order to solve this problem, drive the vehicle at a speed of approx. 80 km/h for 15 to 20
minutes to perform the CDPF regeneration process.
3. If the engine warning lamp on the instrument cluster blinks, the CDPF is overloaded. In this
case, perform the step 2.

1. If the vehicle is driven at a speed of 5 to 10 km/h for an extended period of time, the soot
accumulated in the CDPF cannot be burned as the CDPF cannot reach the regeneration
temperature. Then, an excessive amount of soot can be accumulated in the CDPF.
2. This case is much worse than the simple over-load of the CDPF. To inform this to the driver,
the engine warning lamp comes on and the engine power is decreased to protect the
system.
3. To solve this problem, blow soot between the engine and exhaust system several times and
erase the related DTC. Then, check if the same DTC is regenerated again. If so, check the
DTC related to the differential pressure sensor.

1. OVERVIEW
The DOC (Diesel Oxidation Catalyst) generates CO2 and H2O which are harmless through the
oxidation process of CO and HC. And the DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) collects PM (Particle
Matter) and is regenerated to reduce the quantity of particulates, HC and CO. But there is a
limitation in reducing the emission of exhaust gas for each system, so the CDPF which combines
these two system is applied.

3. INPUT/OUTPUT DEVICES
1. Front temperature sensor: This sensor is installed at the inlet of DOC and detects whether
the DOC can burn (oxidize) the post-injected fuel or not.
2. Rear temperature sensor: This sensor is installed at the inlet of DPF and monitors that the
temperature of the exhaust gas is kept at 600℃.
- If the temperature exceeds 600℃, the life of CDPF can be reduced. So the amount of fuel
post-injection is decreased.
- If the temperature drops under 600℃, the rate of regeneration can be decreased. So the
amount of fuel post-injection is increased.
3. Differential pressure sensor: This sensor checks the amount of PM collected by calculating the
pressure difference between before and after the CDPF.
4. Electric throttle valve: This valve reduces the intake air flow to raise the temperature of the
exhaust gas when the CDPF is operating during idling.

5. OPERATING PROCESS
[Configuration and principle of operation]
1) Oxidation of DOC
The DOC oxidizes HC and CO of the exhaust gas in the two-way catalytic converter at 180℃ or
more, and performs best at the temperature between 400 and 500℃. The front EGT sensor
detects whether the DOC can burn (oxidize) the post-injected fuel or not, and sends the signal to
the ECU to maintain the DOC operating temperature between 300 and 500℃. The DOC reduces
CO and HC of the exhaust gas by redox reaction and also reduces small amount of PM.
2) Collecting PM of DPF
There is a filter installed in the DPF and the PM filtered by this filter is burned (regeneration) when
the temperature of exhaust gas is increased due to post-injection. The filter has a honeycomb-
like structure to capture the particulate matter and the inlet and outlet of each channel are closed
alternatively. Once the exhaust gas enters to the inlet of a channel, it is released from the outlet of
the adjacent channel through the porous wall because of the closed outlet of the first channel,
and the PM is collected in the first channel.
[Collecting PM of CDPF]
Normally, when the driving distance becomes approx. 600 to 1,200 km, enough amount of
soot to be burned is filtered and accumulated in the CDPF. The ECU increases the amount of
fuel post-injection to increase the temperature of the exhaust gas up to 600°C, so that the
soot is burned. The soot is burned for 15 to 20 minutes (may differ by conditions).

3) PM Regeneration of DPF
The differential pressure sensor installed in the DPF measures the pressure values of inlet and
outlet of CDPF. And the amount of the PM collected in the filter is calculated based on the exhaust
temperature, intake air mass flow, booster pressure, etc.
The regeneration is started when the amount of the collected PM is 28 g or more.
The ECU commands post-injection to increase the temperature of CDPF to 600℃.
1. When the amount of the collected PM is not enough: The DPF works as a filter.
2. When enough amount of PM is collected: The ECU commands post-injection and increase the
exhaust gas temperature to start regeneration.
