Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) Handling
CAUTION
If DEF gets in your mouth, wash your
mouth with a large amount of water
immediately and seek medical attention.
If DEF is mistakenly swallowed, drink 1 to
2 cups of water immediately and seek
medical attention.
 If DEF gets in your eyes, rinse them with
running water immediately and seek
medical attention.
 Do not use DEF when 2 years have
elapsed from the production date
indicated on the container or the use
period has expired. If DEF with an expired
use period is used, the Selective Catalytic
Reduction (SCR) System may not operate
normally.
 Do not store DEF in the vehicle. DEF may
deteriorate or the interior may be
damaged due to fluid leakage from the
container.
 If DEF gets on the painted surface or the
interior, wash it off with water or wipe it
off with a wet cloth immediately.
Otherwise, it may damage the painted
surface or the interior.
 If DEF crystals form on the painted
surface or the interior, wipe them
off with
a wet cloth. Otherwise, it may damage
the painted surface or the interior.
 Store DEF in a place out of the reach of
children.
Do not put DEF into a
different container.
There may be foreign matter in the
container. If DEF containing foreign
matter is used, it could cause a problem
with the SCR system. In addition,
changing containers is dangerous
because it increases the risk of accidental
ingestion.
NOTE
DEF is a colorless, transparent,
odorless, and nonpoisonous solution
(urea: 32.5 %, aqueous solution
(AUS32)).
Store DEF in a cool, dark place.
DEF freezes at –11 °C (12 °F), however,
when the temperature increases, the
DEF returns to its original condition.
When opening the container, there may
be a smell of ammonia. Open the
container in a well-ventilated area.
If DEF gets on your hands, wash them
with running water immediately.
