Topping-up the AdBlue® additive
Precautions in useFilling the AdBlue® tank is an operation i
ncluded
in
every
routine service on your
v
ehicle
by
a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified
w
orkshop.
Nevertheless,
given the capacity of the tank,
i
t
may
be
necessary to top-up the additive
b
etween
services,
more particularly if an alert
(
warning
lamps
and a message) signals the
r
equirement.
You
can
got
to
a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified
w
orkshop.
If
you
envisage
topping-up yourself, please
r
ead
the
following
warnings carefully. Keep
AdBlue
® out of the reach of
children,
in
its
original bottle.
Never
transfer AdBlue
® to another
container:
it
would
loose its purity. Never
dilute the additive with water.
Never pour the additive into the Diesel
f
uel tank.
Never top-up from an AdBlue®
dispenser
reserved
for
heavy
goods
v
ehicles.
Use
only
AdBlue
® additive that meets t
he ISO 22241
standard.

You
can obtain 1.89 litre (half a

The
AdBlue® additive is an urea-based s
olution.
This liquid is non-flammable,
c
olourless
and odourless (kept in a cool area).
In
