Abstract
An exhaust emission control system including a continuous regenerating diesel particulate filter ('DPF') and a DPF controller, wherein a forced regenerator is operated by a driver's request, when it is judged that a traveling distance, after starting particulate matter collection, detected by a traveling distance detector has reached a predetermined judging traveling distance, even when the DPF controller detects that a collection amount detected by a collection amount detector is smaller than a prescribed judging collection amount. Accordingly, in a continuous regenerating DPF capable of manual regenerating, the number of warnings, such as a blinking regeneration button prompting a manual regeneration, is reduced to relieve a driver of annoyance or inconvenience.
