2019 Alfa Romeo Stelvio Ad blue

IMPORTANT
DO NOT EXCEED THE MAXIMUM
LEVEL: this could cause damage to the
tank. AdBlue® freezes under 12.2°F
(–11°C). Although the system is
designed to operate below the freezing
point of AdBlue®, it is advisable not to
fill the tank beyond the maximum level
because if the AdBlue® freezes the
system can be damaged. Follow the
instructions in the “Topping up AdBlue®
diesel emissions additive” paragraph in
this chapter.
If AdBlue® is spilled on painted
surfaces or aluminium, immediately
clean the area with water and use
absorbent material to collect the fluid
that has been spilled on the ground.
Do not try to start the engine if
AdBlue® was accidentally added to the
Diesel fuel tank, this can result in
serious engine damage, contact an Alfa
Romeo Dealership.
Do not add additives or other fluids
to AdBlue®, doing so could damage the
system.
The use of non-conforming or
degraded AdBlue® may lead to
indications appearing on the
instrument panel display (see “Warning
lights and messages" paragraph in the
“Knowing the instrument panel”
chapter).
Never pour AdBlue® into another
container: it could be contaminated.
In case of damage to the sewage
system of exhaust gas resulting from
the use of additives / tap water, the
introduction of diesel fuel, or at least
by not fulfilling the requirements, the
warranty expires.
If the AdBlue® runs out, see “Warning
lights and messages" paragraph in the
“Knowing the instrument panel”
chapter to continue using the car
normally.
The AdBlue® level is not updated if
the car is parked on a sloping road.
Fuels - identification of vehicle
compatibility. Graphic symbol for
consumer information in accordance
with EN16942
The symbols, shown below, make it easier
to recognise the correct fuel type to use
with your car.
Before refuelling, check the symbols
(where provided) inside the fuel filler flap
and compare them with the symbols
shown on the fuel pump (where provided).PETROL ENGINES
Inside the flap there is also the fuel type
(UNLEADED FUEL = petrol) and the
symbol (where provided) that certifies
compliance with the EN228 (petrol)
standard fig. 119.
Symbols for petrol powered cars
E5: unleaded petrol containing up to
2.7% (m/m) oxygen and with maximum
5.0% (V/V) ethanol compliant with the
EN228 specification.
E10: unleaded petrol containing up to
3.7% (m/m) oxygen and with maximum
10.0% (V/V) ethanol compliant with the
EN228 specification.

Versions with Cargo Box and
space-saver spare wheel
(where provided)
Proceed as follows:
open the tailgate and then lift up the
load bed fig. 122;
undo the locking device 1 fig. 125 and
extract the space-saver spare wheel to
reach the emergency opening cable 1
fig. 126 positioned on the side of the
filler;
pull the cord to unlock the fuel flap;
open the fuel flap by pressing it.
IMPORTANT If the filler compartment is
washed with a high-pressure jet, keep it
at a distance of at least 8 in (20 cm).
WARNING
122)Do not apply any object/plug to the
end of the filler which is not provided for the
car. The use of non-compliant objects/plugs
could cause a pressure increase inside the
tank, resulting in dangerous situations.
123)Do not bring naked flames or lit
cigarettes near to the fuel filler: fire risk.
Keep your face away from the fuel filler to
prevent breathing in harmful vapours.
124)Do not use a mobile phone near the
refuelling pump: risk of fire.
125)If the AdBlue overheats for a
prolonged period inside the tank to over 50
°C (for example, due to direct solar
irradiation), the AdBlue may decompose and
produce ammonia vapours. Ammonia
vapours have a pungent odour when the cap
of the AdBlue tank is unscrewed, therefore
be careful not to inhale any ammonia
vapours in the tank outlet. In this
concentration, however, the ammonia
vapors are not harmful or dangerous to
health.

AdBlue® (UREA) ADDITIVE FOR
DIESEL EMISSIONS
(2.2 JTD versions only)
The car is equipped with an UREA
injection system and Selective Catalytic
Reduction to meet emission standards.
These two systems ensure compliance
with the diesel emissions requirements;
at the same time, they ensure
fuel-efficiency, handling, torque and
power. For messages and system
warnings, refer to the "Warning lights and
messages" paragraph in the "Knowing the
instrument panel" chapter.
AdBlue® (UREA) is considered a very
stable product with a long shelf life.
Stored at temperatures LOWER than
89.6° F (32 °C), it has a shelf life of at
least one year.
For more information on the AdBlue®
liquid type, see the “Fluids and lubricants”
paragraph in the “Technical
specifications” chapter.
The car is provided with an automatic
AdBlue® heating system when the engine
starts allowing the system to work
correctly at temperatures lower
than -11 °C.
IMPORTANT AdBlue® freezes at
temperatures lower than 12.2 °F (-11 °C).
SUGGESTIONS FOR DRIVING
SAVING FUEL
Below are some suggestions which may
help you save fuel and thus lower the
amount of harmful emissions released
into the atmosphere.
Vehicle maintenance
Checks and operations should be carried
out in accordance with the "Scheduled
Servicing Plan" (see chapter
"Maintenance and care").
Tyres
Check the tyre pressures at least once
every four weeks: if the pressure is too
low, consumption levels increase as
resistance to rolling is higher.
Unnecessary loads
Do not travel with an overloaded boot.
The weight of the vehicle and its
arrangement greatly affect fuel
consumption and stability.
Electric devices
Use electrical devices only for the
amount of time needed. The heated rear
window, additional headlights, screen
wipers and heater fan require a
considerable amount of energy;
increasing the current uptake increases
fuel consumption (by up to +25% in an
urban cycle).Climate control system
Using the climate control system will
increase consumption: use standard
ventilation when the temperature
outside permits.
Devices for aerodynamic control
The use of non-certified devices for
aerodynamic control may adversely
affect air drag and consumption levels.
DRIVING STYLE
Starting
Do not warm up the engine at low or high
revs when the vehicle is stationary; this
causes the engine to warm up more
slowly, thereby increasing fuel
consumption and emissions. It is
therefore advisable to move off
immediately, slowly, avoiding high
speeds: in this way the engine will warm
up more quickly.
Unnecessary actions
Avoid revving up when starting at traffic
lights or before stopping the engine. The
latter action, as well as double-
declutching, is unnecessary and causes
increased fuel consumption and
pollution.
Gear selection
Use a high gear when traffic and road
conditions allow it. Using a low gear for
faster acceleration will increase fuel

STARTING AND DRIVING

SCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct servicing is crucial for
guaranteeing a long life for the vehicle
under the best conditions.
For this reason, Alfa Romeo has planned
a series of checks and maintenance
operations at fixed distance intervals
and, for versions/markets, where
provided, at fixed time intervals, as
described in the Service Schedule.
Before each service, it is always
necessary to carefully follow the
instructions in the Scheduled Servicing
Plan (e.g. periodically check level of
fluids, tyre pressure, etc.).
Scheduled Servicing is offered by an Alfa
Romeo Dealership according to a set
time schedule. If, during each operation,
in addition to the ones scheduled, the
need arises for further replacements or
repairs, these may be carried out with the
owner's explicit consent only.
IMPORTANT Scheduled Servicing
operations are required by the
Manufacturer. Failure to have them
carried out may invalidate the warranty.
It is advisable to inform the Alfa Romeo
Dealership of any small operating
irregularities without waiting for the next
service.

81)The distribution companies are responsible for the compliance of their product. Observe the precautions of storage and maintenance, in order
to preserve the initial qualities. The manufacturer will not recognise any guarantee in case of malfunctions and damage caused to the car due to
the use of AdBlue
