<p>The invention relates to a method for managing a module for processing the exhaust gases generated by the internal combustion engine of an automobile, the processing module including a catalyst capable of processing the nitrogen oxides (NOx) present in the exhaust gases, said method comprising: measuring the amount of NOx flowing out of the catalyst; determining the amount of NOx entering and/or stored in the catalyst; based on the amount of NOx entering and/or stored in the catalyst and on the amount of NOx flowing out of the catalyst, calculating the value E of a magnitude representative of the catalyst efficiency for processing the NOx; and comparing the value E of the magnitude representative of the catalyst efficiency to a first threshold S1, and initiating a catalyst purging procedure, in which information means are activated, when the value E of the magnitude representative of the catalyst efficiency is lower than the first threshold S1.</p> |
