Operations prior to refilling
Park the vehicle on a flat surface and turn off
the ignition. If the vehicle is on a slope or on a
curb, the level indicator may not detect the
refill properly.
If an AdBlue® warning message is shown on
the instrument cluster display,
fill with at
least the minimum required amount (ap-
prox. 5 litres)
. Only after adding this amount
will the system detect that AdBlue® has been
added and you will be able to start the en-
gine again. The maximum amount that can
be refilled is 11 litres.
Fill with a refill bottle
Only use AdBlue® that complies with the
ISO 22241-1 standard. Only use original
containers.
