filler cap is lost or damaged, be sure the
replacement cap is the correct one for this
vehicle.Fuel Filler Door Fuel Filler Cap
WARNING!
Never have any smoking materials lit in
or near the vehicle when the fuel door is
open or the tank is being filled.
Never add fuel when the engine is
running. This is in violation of most
countries regulations and may cause the
“Malfunction Indicator Light” to turn on.
Do not apply any object/cap 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.
A fire may result if fuel is pumped into a
portable container that is inside of a
vehicle. You could be burned. Always
place fuel containers on the ground
while filling.
CAUTION!
Damage to the fuel system or emission
control system could result from using
an improper fuel filler cap. A poorly
fitting cap could let impurities into the
fuel system. Also, a poorly fitting after
-
market cap can cause the “Malfunction

AdBlue® (UREA) — If Equipped
The vehicle is equipped with an AdBlue®
UREA injection system and Selective Cata -
lytic Reduction to meet emission standards.
These two systems ensure compliance with
the diesel emissions requirements; at the
same, they ensure fuel-efficiency, handling,
torque and power. For messages and system
warnings, refer to the “Warning Lights And
Messages” in the “Getting To Know Your
Instrument Panel" section. AdBlue® (UREA)
is a very stable product with a long shelf life.
Stored at temperatures LOWER than 90°F
(32°C), it has a shelf life of at least one year.
For more information on the AdBlue®
(UREA) liquid type, see the “Fluids and
lubricants” in the “Technical specifications”
section. The vehicle is equipped with an
automatic AdBlue® (UREA) heating system
when the engine starts allowing the system
to work correctly at temperatures lower than
12°F (-11°C).
NOTE:
AdBlue® (UREA) freezes at temperatures
lower than 12°F (-11°C).Do not apply any object/cap 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

WARNING! (Continued)
CAUTION!
For diesel engines, only use diesel fuel for
motor vehicles in accordance with EN 590
European specifications. The use of other
products or mixtures may damage the
engine beyond repair and consequently
void the warranty, due to the damage
caused. If you accidentally introduce other
types of fuel into the tank, do not start the
engine. Empty the tank. If the engine has
been run for even an extremely limited
amount of time, you must not only drain
the fuel tank, but the rest of the supply
circuit as well.

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
contact 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)
Preliminary Conditions
AdBlue® (UREA) freezes at temperatures
lower than 12°F (-11°C). If the car stands for
a long time at this temperature refilling
could be difficult. For this reason, it is
advised to park the vehicle in a garage and/
or heated environment and wait for the urea
to return to liquid state before topping up.
Proceed as follows:
Park the car on flat ground and stop the
engine by placing the ignition to the OFF
position.
Open the fuel door, undo and remove the
cap (blue) from the AdBlue® (UREA)
filler.
Refilling With Nozzles
You can fill up at any AdBlue® (UREA)
distributor.
Proceed as follows:
Insert the AdBlue® (UREA) nozzle in the
filler, start refilling and stop refilling at the
first shut-off (the shut-off indicates that the AdBlue® (UREA) tank is full). Do not
proceed with the refilling, to prevent
spillage of AdBlue® (UREA).
Extract the nozzle.
Refilling With Containers
Proceed as follows:
Check the expiration date.
Read the advice for use on the label before
pouring the content of the bottle into the
AdBlue® (UREA) tank.
If systems which cannot be screwed in
(e.g. tanks) are used for refilling, after the
indication appears on the instrument
panel display refer to “Warning lights And
Messages” in the “Getting To Know Your
Instrument Panel” for further information,
fill the AdBlue® (UREA) tank with no
more than 2 Gallons (8 liters).
If containers which can be screwed to the
filler are used, the reservoir is full when
the AdBlue® (UREA) level in the
container stops pouring out. Do not
proceed further.

173
Operations After Refilling
Proceed as follows:
Fit the cap back on the AdBlue® (UREA)
filler by turning it clockwise and screwing
it completely.
Place the ignition in RUN (it is not neces-
sary to start the engine).

Wait for the indication on the instrument
panel to switch off before moving the car.
The indication may stay on for a few seconds
to approximately half a minute. If the engine
is started and the car is moved, the indica-
tion will remain on for longer. This will not
compromise engine operation.

If the AdBlue® (UREA) was topped up
when the tank was empty, wait for
2 minutes before starting the engine.
NOTE:
If AdBlue® (UREA) is spilled out of the
filler neck, clean up well the area and
proceed to filling up again. If the liquid
crystallizes, eliminate it with a sponge and
warm water.
DO NOT EXCEED THE MAXIMUM LEVEL:
this could cause damage to the reservoir.
AdBlue® (UREA) freezes at under 12°F
(-11°C). Although the system is designed
to operate below the freezing point of the
AdBlue® (UREA), it is advisable not to fill
the tank beyond the maximum level
because if the AdBlue® (UREA) freezes
the system can be damaged. Follow the
instructions in this section.
If the AdBlue® (UREA) is spilled on
painted surfaces or aluminum, immedi -
ately 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®
(UREA) was accidentally added to the
diesel fuel tank, this can result in serious
engine damage, contact an authorized
dealer.
Do not add additives or other fluids to
AdBlue® (UREA), doing so could damage
the system.
The use of non-conforming or degraded
AdBlue® (UREA) may lead to indications
appearing on the instrument panel display
refer to “Warning Lights And Messages” in
the “Getting To Know Your Instrument
Panel” for further information.
Never pour AdBlue® (UREA) into another
container: it could be contaminated.
If the AdBlue® (UREA) runs out, see refer
to “Warning Lights And Messages” in the
“Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel”
for further information to continue using
the car normally.
