Diesel exhaust fluid at minimum
Even with a display of -- mls, the engine will
continue to run, provided that it is not switched
off, and all other operating requirements are
met, e.g. sufficient fuel.
No engine start
Do not drive until the displayed remain‐
ing distance runs out. Otherwise, it may not be
possible to restart the engine.◀
Incorrect fueling The warning lamp lights up:
The reservoir has been filled with an in‐
correct fluid.
Please contact your service center.
Have diesel exhaust fluid refilled This exhaust fluid is refilled by your service
center during regular maintenance. If you ad‐
here to this maintenance schedule, it is usually
not necessary to refill any fluids between the
maintenance dates.
Under certain circumstances, for example, due
to a particularly sporty driving style or opera‐
tion of the vehicle at high altitudes, it may be
necessary to refill fluids between maintenance
dates.
As soon as the reserve display has appeared in
the instrument panel, have the diesel exhaust
fluid refilled to prevent the engine from being
unable to restart.
You can have the fluid refilled by a service cen‐
ter.
Diesel exhaust fluid at low
temperatures
Due to its physical properties, it may be neces‐
sary to replenish the level of diesel exhaust
fluid at temperatures below +23 ℉/ -5 ℃, even
between the regular maintenance dates.
If the fluid needs to be refilled, this will be indi‐
cated with the reserve display in the instru‐
ment cluster, refer to page 271.
Only refill the diesel exhaust fluid
yourself in exceptional circumstances
To be able to reach the nearest service center
with your vehicle, you may refill the diesel ex‐
haust fluid yourself, making sure to heed the
warning notices specified below.
Handling diesel exhaust fluid
Do not allow diesel exhaust fluid to come
into contact with you. This can lead to skin and
eye irritation. Wear protective goggles and
gloves as needed. Follow the safety instruc‐
tions on the bottle. When opening the bottle or
reservoir, pungent smelling vapors can escape.
Before refilling, close the vehicle completely so
that the vapors do not get into the interior of
the vehicle. When handling diesel exhaust fluid
in enclosed spaces, make sure to have suffi‐
cient ventilation. After handling diesel exhaust
fluid, wash hands thoroughly. Failure to do so
may lead to irritation, for instance, due to inad‐
vertent contact with the eyes. If eye irritation
occurs, immediately rinse eyes with ample wa‐
ter and contact a doctor if necessary. If diesel
exhaust fluid comes into contact with surfaces
of your vehicle, rinse the affected surfaces with
water or else damage may occur. Keep diesel
exhaust fluid out of reach of children.◀

venient refilling with diesel exhaust fluid.▷Alternative: NOx reduction agent AUS 32Seite 272MobilityFuel272
