Refilling With Containers
Proceed as follows:
• Check the expiration date.
• Read the advice for use on the label before
pouring the content of the bottle into the
AdBlue
® tank.
• If systems which cannot be screwed in (e.g.
tanks) are used for refilling, after the indi-
cation appears on the instrument panel
display refer to “Warning lights And Mes-
sages" in the “Getting To Know Your Instru-
ment Panel” for further information, fill the
AdBlue
®
tank with no more than 2 Gallons
(8 liters).
• If containers which can be screwed to the
filler are used, the reservoir is full when the
AdBlue
®
level in the container stops pour-
ing out. Do not proceed further.
Operations After Refilling
Proceed as follows:
• Fit the cap back on the AdBlue
®
filler by
turning it clockwise and screwing it com-
pletely.
• Cycle the ignition to RUN (it is not neces-
sary to start the engine).
• Wait for the indication on the instrument
panel to switch off before moving the car.
The indication may stay on for a few sec-
onds to approximately half a minute. If the
engine is started and the car is moved, the
indication will remain on for longer. This
will not compromise engine operation.
• If the AdBlue ® was topped up when the
tank was empty, wait for 2 minutes before
starting the engine.
NOTE:
• If AdBlue ® is spilled out of the filler neck,
clean up well the area and proceed to filling
up again. If the liquid crystallizes, elimi-
nate it with a sponge and warm water.
• DO NOT EXCEED THE MAXIMUM LEVEL:
this could cause damage to the reservoir.
AdBlue
® freezes at under 12° F (-11° C).
Although the system is designed to operate
below the freezing point of the AdBlue
® , it
is advisable not to fill the tank beyond the
maximum level because if the AdBlue
®
freezes the system can be damaged. Follow
the instructions in this section.
• If the AdBlue ® is spilled on painted sur-
faces or aluminium, immediately clean the
area with water and use absorbent material
to collect the fluid that has been spilled on
the ground.
• Do not try to start the engine if AdBlue ®
was accidentally added to the diesel fuel
tank, this can result in serious engine dam-
age, contact an authorized dealer.
• Do not add additives or other fluids to
AdBlue
®
, doing so could damage the system.
• The use of non-conforming or degraded
AdBlue ® may lead to indications appearing
on the instrument panel display refer to
“Warning Lights And Messages" in the
“Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel”
for further information.
• Never pour AdBlue ® into another con-
tainer: it could be contaminated.
• If the AdBlue ® runs out, see refer to “Warn-
ing Lights And Messages" in the “Getting To
Know Your Instrument Panel” for further in-
formation to continue using the car normally.
