What does the DPF filter in my Vauxhall Zafira Life do?

I've heard about the DPF filter in my Vauxhall Zafira Life, but I'm not sure what it does. Can you explain its purpose and if I need to do anything to maintain it?

The DPF filter, or diesel particulate filter, is responsible for trapping larger diesel exhaust particles to reduce emissions. It's important to maintain it by regularly driving at high speeds to regenerate the filter.

The DPF filter is designed to reduce harmful emissions from your vehicle. If you notice any warning lights or decreased performance, it may indicate that the filter needs to be replaced.

The DPF filter is an important component in your vehicle's exhaust system, so it's important to get it regularly checked and cleaned if necessary. Make sure to follow your vehicle's recommended maintenance schedule.
