Ensure that you have a suitable
filler pipe, which may or may not be
supplied with the container.
Filling
In the event of an overflow, wipe
around the filler mouth using a
damp cloth.
If any AdBlue
® fluid is split or splashed
on to you, wash immediately with cold
water or wipe yourself with a clean
damp cloth.
If the fluid has crystallised, clean it off
using a sponge and hot water.
Ensure that the vehicle is parked on a
flat and level surface.

Keep AdBlue® out of the reach
of children, in its original
container.
Never transfer AdBlue
® to another
container: it would loose its purity.
Never dilute the fluid with water.
Never pour the fluid into the Diesel fuel
tank.
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 off immediately, but does so after a
few miles of driving.
