The document discusses regeneration of diesel particulate filters (DPFs) in fire apparatus engines. DPFs capture particulate matter from exhaust but require periodic regeneration to clear the accumulated soot. Regeneration increases exhaust temperature to burn off soot through either passive regeneration during normal operation or active regeneration initiated by the driver. Active regeneration involves parking the vehicle and triggering an automated high-idle process that takes 20-45 minutes to complete regeneration. Warnings notify the driver when regeneration is recommended or required to avoid engine damage.
