Important safety notes
AdBlue
®
is a water-soluble fluid for the exhaust
gas aftertreatment of diesel engines. It is:
R
non-toxic
R
colourless and odourless
R
non-flammable
If you open the AdBlue ® tank, small amounts of
ammonia vapour may be released.
Ammonia vapours have a pungent odour and are
particularly irritating to the skin, mucous mem-
branes and eyes. You may experience a burning
sensation in your eyes, nose and throat. You
may also experience coughing and watery eyes.
Do not inhale any ammonia vapours that may be
released. Fill the AdBlue
®
tank only in well-ven-
tilated areas.
Do not swallow AdBlue ® or let it come into con-
tact with your skin, eyes or clothing. Keep
AdBlue ® away from children.
If you or others come into contact with AdBlue
®
,
observe the following:
R immediately rinse AdBlue
®
off your skin with
soap and water.
R if AdBlue
®
comes into contact with your eyes,
immediately rinse them thoroughly with clean
water. Seek medical attention immediately.
R if AdBlue
®
is swallowed, immediately rinse
your mouth out thoroughly. Drink plenty of
water. Seek medical attention immediately.
R
change immediately out of clothing that has
come into contact with AdBlue
®
.
!
Only use AdBlue ® in accordance with
ISO 22241. Do not mix any additives with
AdBlue ® , and do not dilute AdBlue ® with
water. This may destroy the BlueTEC exhaust
gas aftertreatment system.
!
In order to fill the AdBlue
®
tank, the vehicle
must be parked on a level surface. The
AdBlue
®
tank can only be filled as intended
with the vehicle parked on a level surface.
Fluctuations in capacity will thus be avoided.
Filling a vehicle standing on an uneven sur-
face is not permitted. There is a danger of
overfilling, which can cause damage to Blue-
TEC exhaust gas aftertreatment components.
!
Surfaces which have come into contact with
AdBlue
®
while refilling should be rinsed
immediately with water, or remove AdBlue
®
with a moist cloth and cold water. If AdBlue ®
has already crystallised, use a sponge and
cold water to clean the area. AdBlue ® residue
crystallises after a certain amount of time and
soils the affected surfaces.
!
AdBlue
®
is not a fuel additive and must not
be added to the fuel tank. If AdBlue
®
is added
to the fuel tank, this can lead to engine dam-
age.
Have the AdBlue
®
tank refilled at a qualified
specialist workshop. However, you can also top
up the AdBlue
®
tank:
R
at a filling station with an AdBlue
®
filling pump
R with AdBlue
®
refill bottles
R
with an AdBlue ® refill canister
