hicle components, plastic and carpet. Re
move the fluid as quickly as possible with a

water and a sponge . AdBlue residue that is
not removed will crystallize and can damage
the affected surface.

manently in the vehicle. If the container
leaks, the escaping AdBlue could damage
the vehicle interior.

ter.
