EVIC Messages ????

I went to the local Dodge Dealer and got the DVD/CD from the Service Mgr.
He put a label on the drivers sunvisor with instructions how to drive and messages that would display on the EVIC. Very interesting that it shows a message as follows:
EXHAUST SYSTEM -----REGENERATION IN PROCESS
Indicates that the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) is self-cleaning. Maintain your current driving condition until regeneration is completed.

EXHAUST SYSTEM -----REGENERATION COMPLETED
Indicates that the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) self-cleaning is completed. If this message is displayed, you will hear one chime to assist in alerting you of this condition.
This same info is in the supplement Owners Manual on page 81 along with other messages that I'm not entering here that the service mgr gave me.

The moderator on the DVD states that some models show the above messagaes while other models display different ones.
I thought we were all driving the same pickups.
The C&C is the only other type/model I have heard of. Maybe I'm not up to the latest update.
Does anyone get the regen messages on the overhead????????????
