AdBlue (UREA) — If Equipped
Your vehicle is equipped with a Selective
Catalytic Reduction system to meet the very
stringent diesel emissions standards re-
quired by the European Community legisla-
tion.
The purpose of the SCR system is to reduce
levels of NOx (oxides of nitrogen emitted from
engines) that are harmful to our health and
the environment to a near-zero level. A small

quantity AdBlue (UREA) is injected into the
exhaust upstream of a catalyst where, when
vaporized, it converts smog-forming nitrogen
oxides (NOx) into harmless nitrogen (N2) and
water vapor (H2O), two natural components
of the air we breathe. You can operate with
the comfort that your vehicle is contributing
to a cleaner, healthier world environment for
this and generations to come.
System Overview
This vehicle is equipped with a AdBlue
(UREA) injection system and a Selective
Catalytic Reduction (SCR) catalyst to meet
the emission requirements.
The AdBlue (UREA) injection system con-
sists of the following components:
• AdBlue (UREA) Tank
• AdBlue (UREA) Pump
• AdBlue (UREA) Injector
• Electronically-heated AdBlue (UREA)
Lines
• NOx sensors• Temperature sensors
• SCR catalyst
The AdBlue (UREA) injection system and
SCR catalyst enable the achievement of die-
sel emissions requirements; while maintain-
ing outstanding fuel economy, drivability,
torque and power ratings.
Refer to “Instrument Cluster Display” in
“Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel” for
system messages and warnings.
NOTE:
• Your vehicle is equipped with a AdBlue
(UREA) injection system. You may occa-
sionally hear an audible clicking noise from
under the vehicle at a stop. This is normal
operation.
• The AdBlue (UREA) pump will run for a
period of time after engine shutdown to
purge the AdBlue (UREA) system. This is
normal operation and may be audible from
the rear of the vehicle.
AdBlue (UREA) Storage
AdBlue (UREA) is considered a very stable
product with a long shelf life. If AdBlue
(UREA) is kept in temperatures between
10° and 90°F (-12° and 32°C), it will last a
minimum of one year.
AdBlue (UREA) is subject to freezing at the
lowest temperatures. For example, AdBlue
(UREA) may freeze at temperatures at or
below 12° F (-11° C). The system has been
designed to operate in this environment.
NOTE:
When working with AdBlue (UREA), it is
important to know that:
• Any containers or parts that come into con-
tact with AdBlue (UREA) must be AdBlue
(UREA) compatible (plastic or stainless
steel). Copper, brass, aluminum, iron or
non-stainless steel should be avoided as
they are subject to corrosion by AdBlue
(UREA).
• If AdBlue (UREA) is spilled, it should be
wiped up completely.

Adding AdBlue (UREA)
NOTE:
Driving conditions (altitude, vehicle speed,
load, etc.) will effect the amount of AdBlue
(UREA) that is used in your vehicle.
AdBlue (UREA) Fill Procedure With Pump
Nozzle
NOTE:
Refer to “Fluids And Lubricants” in the
“Technical Specifications” section for the
correct fluid type.
1. Park the vehicle on level ground. Turn off
the engine by cycling the ignition to the
OFF position. Open the fuel filler and then
unscrew and remove the cap from the
AdBlue (UREA) filler.2. Insert AdBlue (UREA) fill adapter/nozzle
into AdBlue (UREA) fill inlet.
CAUTION!
•To avoid AdBlue (UREA) spillage, and
possible damage to the AdBlue (UREA)
tank from overfilling, do not “top off” the
AdBlue (UREA) tank after filling.
CAUTION!
• DO NOT OVERFILL. AdBlue (UREA) will
freeze below 12ºF (-11ºC). The AdBlue
(UREA) system is designed to work in
temperatures below the AdBlue (UREA)
freezing point, however, if the tank is
overfilled and freezes, the system could
be damaged.
• When AdBlue (UREA) is spilled, clean
the area immediately with water and use
an absorbent material to soak up the
spills on the ground.
• Do not attempt to start your engine if
AdBlue (UREA) is accidentally added to
the diesel fuel tank as it can result in
severe damage to your engine, including
but not limited to failure of the fuel
pump and injectors.

CAUTION!
• Never add anything other than AdBlue
(UREA) to the tank – especially any form
of hydrocarbon such as diesel fuel, fuel
system additives, gasoline, or any other
petroleum-based product. Even a very
small amount of these, less than
100 parts per million or less than 1 oz.
(30 ml) per 78 gallons (295 liters) will
contaminate the entire AdBlue (UREA)
system and will require replacement. If
owners use a container, funnel or nozzle
when refilling the tank, it should either
be new or one that is has only been used
for adding AdBlue (UREA). Mopar pro-
vides an attachable nozzle with its Ad-
Blue (UREA) for this purpose.3. Stop filling the AdBlue (UREA) tank im-
mediately when any of the following hap-
pen: AdBlue (UREA) splashes out the fill
inlet, or a AdBlue (UREA) pump nozzle
automatically shuts off.
4. After removing the nozzle, refit the cap on
the AdBlue (UREA) filler by turning it
clockwise until it is fully tightened. Cycle
the ignition to the ACC position (no need
to start the engine).
5. Wait for the warning on the instrument
panel to switch off before moving the
vehicle, the warning light may stay on for
a few seconds to half a minute. In case of
engine start-up and movement of the ve-
hicle, the warning light will remain on for
a longer period of time, but there are no
problems on the engine functionality. If
topping up is done with the AdBlue
(UREA) tank empty, you have to wait two
minutes before starting the vehicle.When Refueling The Additive For Diesel Emis-
sions AdBlue (UREA) With Bottle:
• Park the vehicle on level ground.
• Turn off the engine by cycling the ignition to
the OFF position.
• Open the fuel filler and then unscrew and
remove the cap from the AdBlue (UREA)
filler.
• Press the bottom of the bottle towards the
filler to release the bottle's safety valve and
start topping up; if the level of AdBlue
(UREA) in the bottle.
• Stop filling the AdBlue (UREA) tank imme-
diately when any of the following happen:
AdBlue (UREA) stops flowing from the fill
bottle into the AdBlue (UREA) fill inlet,
AdBlue (UREA) splashes out the fill inlet.
• If the level of AdBlue (UREA) in the bottle
does not drop while topping up, it means
that you have filled the reservoir, so pull the
bottle towards you to re-close the bottle's
safety valve and unscrew the bottle from
the filler.
