Having the vehicle refilled with Diesel
exhaust fluid
Diesel exhaust fluid is replenished by your Serv‐
ice Center in the course of regularly scheduled
maintenance. Provided you observe this main‐
tenance schedule, it is not normally necessary
to replenish the fluid between maintenance ap‐
pointments.
It may be necessary to have the fluid replenished
under particular circumstances, for example if
the vehicle is driven in a particularly sporty style
or if it is driven at high altitudes.
The Diesel exhaust fluid must be replenished as
soon as the reserve display appears in the in‐
strument cluster to avoid not being able to re‐
start the engine.
You can have the fluid replenished by any Serv‐
ice Center.
Diesel exhaust fluid at low
temperatures
Due to its physical properties, it is possible that
Diesel exhaust fluid may also need to be replen‐
ished between regular maintenance appoint‐
ments if it is exposed to temperatures below
+23 ℉/ -5 ℃.

serve display in the in the instrument cluster, re‐
fer to page 175.You can replenish the Diesel exhaust
fluid yourself in exceptional
circumstances

haust fluid yourself, provided you pay close at‐
tention to the following warning notices.

tions on the bottle. When the bottle or container

tently transfer fluid to your eyes and suffer irri‐
tation. If irritation of the eyes does occur, flush
your eyes immediately with abundant water and
