AdBlue® additive range indicators
the engine start prevention system
required by regulations is activated
automatically once the AdBlue
® tank is
e m pt y.
Once the AdBlue
® tank is on reserve or
following the detection of a fault with the SCR
emissions control system, when the ignition is
switched on, an indicator displays an estimate
of the distance that can be covered, the range,
before engine starting is prevented.
In the event of simultaneous system fault and
low AdBlue
® level, the shortest range figure is
the one displayed. Range greater than 1 500 miles (2 400 km)
When the ignition is switched on, no
information on range is displayed automatically
in the instrument panel.
Pressing this button
