Recommendations on storage
Never store containers or bottles of
AdBlue® in your vehicle.
Freezing of the AdBlue
®
AdBlue® freezes at about -11°C (12.2° F) and
deteriorates above 25°C (77°F).
It is recommended that containers and
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.
Additive that has been frozen can
be used once it has thawed out in
ambient air. The SCR system includes an
AdBlue
® tank heater that ensures operation of the vehicle in normal
conditions.
In exceptional situations, such as when
the
vehicle
is kept at temperatures
below -15°C (5°F) for a long period,
there may be an emission fault alert
related to freezing of the
AdBlue
®
additive.
Park
the
vehicle
in
an
area
at
a
more
moderate temperature for a few hours
until
the AdBlue
® becomes a fluid again.
The emissions warning lamp does not
go of
f immediately, but does so after a
few
miles
of
driving.
