Topping-up the AdBlue® additive
Filling the AdBlue® tank is an operation
included in every routine service on
your vehicle by a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualified workshop.
Nevertheless, given the capacity
of the tank, it may be necessary to
top-up the additive between services,
more particularly if an alert (warning
lamps and a message) signals the
requirement.
You can got to a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If you envisage topping-up yourself,
please read the following warnings
carefully. Precautions in use
The AdBlue® additive is an urea-based
solution. This liquid is non-flammable,
colourless and odourless (kept in a
cool area).
In the event of contact with the skin,
wash the affected area with soap and
water. In the event of contact with the
eyes, wash (irrigate) the eyes with
large amounts of water or with an eye
wash solution for at least 15 minutes.
If a burning sensation or irritation
persists, get medical attention.
If swallowed, immediately wash out the
mouth with clean water and then drink
plenty of water.
In certain conditions (high ambient
temperature, for example), the risk
of release of ammonia cannot be
excluded: do not inhale the product.
Ammonia vapour has en irritant effect
on mucous membranes (eyes, nose
and throat).
Keep AdBlue
® out of the reach of
children, in its original bottle.
Never transfer AdBlue
® to another
container: it would loose its purity. Use only AdBlue
® additive that meets
the ISO 22241 standard.
Never dilute the additive with
water.
Never pour the additive into the Diesel
fuel tank.
The supply in a non-drip bottle
simplifies toping-up. You can obtain
1.89 litre (half a US gallon) bottles
from a PEUGEOT


dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Never top-up from an AdBlue
®
dispenser reserved for heavy
goods vehicles.

Recommendations on storage
AdBlue® freezes at about -11°C
and deteriorates above 25°C. It is
recommended that bottles be stored in
a cool area and protected from direct
sunlight.
Under these conditions, the additive
can be kept for at least a year.
If the additive has frozen, can be used
once it has completely thawed out.
Never store bottles of AdBlue
® in
your vehicle. Procedure
Before topping-up, ensure that the
vehicle is parked on a flat and level
surface.
In wintry conditions, ensure that the
temperature of the vehicle is above
-11°C. Otherwise, by freezing, the
AdBlue
® cannot be poured into its tank.
Park your vehicle in a warmer area for
a few hours to allow the top-up to be
carried out.
