Never store bottles of AdBlue® in your
vehicle.
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 fluid can be kept
for at least a year.
If the additive has frozen, it can be used once it
has completely thawed out.
Procedure
Before topping-up, ensure that the vehicle is
parked on a flat and level sur face.
In wintry conditions, ensure that the
temperature of the vehicle is above -11°C.
Otherwise the AdBlue
® may be frozen and
so 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.
Access
F For access to the AdBlue® tank, raise the
boot carpet then, depending on equipment,
lift out the spare wheel and/or the storage
box.
F

S

witch off the ignition and remove the key.

If any fluid is split or splashed, wash
immediately with cold water or wipe with
a damp cloth.
If the fluid has crystallised, clean it off
using a sponge and hot water. Important:
in the event of a top-up
after a breakdown because of a lack
of AdBlue
®, signalled by the message
"Top up emissions additive: Starting
prevented", you must wait around
5

minutes before switching on the ignition,
without opening the driver's door,
