Checking and topping up fluids
Selective catalytic
reduction (AdBLue/DEF)
General notes
Applies to: vehicles with selective catalytic reduction
On vehicles with selective catalytic reduction, a
urea solution (AdBLue/DEF) is injected into the
exhaust system upstream of
a
NOx catalytic
con­

verter in order to reduce nitrogen oxide emis­

sions.
The urea solution is known under the name
of AdBlue or DEF (Diesel Exhaust Fluid). The term
AdBlue is used below.
The AdBlue is held in a separate tank on the
vehi­

cle.
AdBlue consumption is approximately 1.0 -
2.5% of diesel fuel consumption.
As soon as a message appears in the instrument
cluster display reminding you to refill AdBlue,
you must refill the AdBlue tank or have this done
by
a
qualified workshop
^>page
293.
Checking the remaining range
The remaining (estimated) range for the current

AdBLue
level can be displayed on the on-board
computer:
- Vehicles with analogue instrument cluster

•=>
page 20.
- Vehicles with virtual cockpit*
<$page

-The instrument cluster display will
tell
you
how far you can drive before the tank runs
dry
•=>page
292. If the AdBlue tank runs
dry, the engine cannot be started again af­
ter you switch off the ignition.
-The use of
AdBLue for
the operation of this
vehicle is required by Law.

Applies to: vehicles with selective catalytic reduction

The
display informs you if the AdBlue level is too
low or if a system malfunction occurs.

You will be informed if the amount of AdBlue in
the tank falls below a certain
Level.
Add at least
the minimum (smaller) amount of AdBlue

Filling the wrong fluid / system fault
If
you
fill the AdBlue tank with a fluid other than
AdBlue and the system detects that the wrong
fluid has been added or there is a system fault, a
driver message will appear.

AdBlue:
system fault. No restart in x km!
See owner's manual
This message tells you the maximum distance

that
you can drive. Drive to a qualified workshop
and have the fault rectified. Otherwise, after driv­
ing the maximum distance and switching off the

AdBlue:
system fault. No restart! See own­
er's manual
This message appears if the system detects that
the tank has been filled with the wrong fluid or if
there is a system fault. Drive to the nearest quali­
fied workshop without delay and have the fault

rectified.
Otherwise, you will not be able to re­
start the car after you switch off the engine.

The AdBlue filler neck is located immediately be­
side the diesel filler neck. Add at least the
amount of AdBlue displayed in the instrument
cluster. If
you
do not refill this amount of
fluid,

the system may not detect that the tank has
been refilled and it may not be possible to restart
the engine. You can refill with a maximum of 12

litres.

Important: A message in the instrument cluster
display informs you if
you
need to refill AdBlue.

A WARNING
AdBlue can cause irritation to the
skin,
eyes,
and respiratory organs. Wash thoroughly with
clean water should you come into contact
with this
fluid.
Seek medical assistance if nee­

ded.

© CAUTION
- Use only
AdBLue
that complies with the ISO
22241-1 standard. Do not mix AdBlue with
additives and do not dilute it with water.
- AdBlue must not be added to the diesel
tank, and diesel must not be added to the
AdBlue tank. Never start the engine if you
fill up with the wrong type of
fuel,
as this
could damage the tank system and the en­

gine.
Obtain professional assistance.
-AdBlue attacks surfaces such as paintwork,
plastic veneer and carpets. Remove spilt
flu­

id as soon as possible with a damp cloth and
plenty of water. If the AdBlue has already

solidified,
use warm water and a sponge.
Residues of AdBlue solidify after
a
while if
they are not removed and can damage the
affected surface.
- Do not keep refill bottles or canisters in the
vehicle, as AdBlue can leak and damage the
vehicle interior.
- Keep AdBlue away from clothing. Wash
thoroughly with clean water should you
come into contact with this
fluid.

Note
Please follow the AdBlue manufacturer's in­
structions for storage and use.

CAUTIO
Use only refill canisters of the correct type ap­
proved for your vehicle. AdBlue may Leak out
if
you
use another system.
© Note
- Your qualified workshop can tell you which
refill canisters are approved
for
your
vehi­

cle.

- Approved refill canisters contain about 5 li­
tres of AdBlue.

(J) CAUTION
Use only refill bottles of the correct type ap­
proved for your vehicle. AdBlue may leak out
if
you
use another system.
- Refill bottles are available from qualified
workshops.
- Approved refill bottles contain about 1.9 Li­
tres of AdBlue.
After refilling
Applies to: vehicles with selective catalytic reduction
Closing the filler neck

•
Screw the AdBlue cap clockwise onto the filler
neck until the AdBlue cap clicks audibly

Preparations on page 293,
^>(T)in
Prepara­
tions on page 293.

•
Press the left side of the flap to close it (you
should hear it click into place).
After refilling
The vehicle must be driven so that the system
can detect the AdBlue which has been added.
This process can take several minutes.
• If the AdBlue tank had run dry and a range of
0 km was shown on the display, switch on the
ignition for approx. 30 seconds before starting
the engine.
© Note
AdBlue can freeze in the tank at very Low
tem­

peratures. In this case, the system will not
detect AdBlue when you refill and will contin­
ue to indicate a Low
AdBLue
Level. The mes­
sage will disappear as soon as the tank has

thawed.

Checking and topping up fluids
A WARNING
- To avoid the risk of being scalded, never
open the bonnet if
you
see steam or coolant
escaping from the engine compartment.
Wait until no steam or coolant can be seen
before opening the bonnet.
- For safety reasons the bonnet must always
be completely closed when the vehicle is

moving.
After closing it always check that it
is properly secured. It should not be possi­
ble to
lift
the front edges of the bonnet.
Should you notice that the bonnet is not
safely secured when the vehicle is moving,
stop the vehicle immediately and close the
bonnet properly, otherwise it could cause an
accident.

the oil changed by
a
qualified workshop. •

Checking and topping up fluids
© CAUTIO
-The anti-freeze concentration must be
matched to the climate of the country in
which you are driving. If the concentration
is too
high,
damage to the car may result.
- Never put in radiator anti-freeze or other
additives.
- Never use washer fluid which contains paint
thinners or solvents as it can damage the
paintwork.
Service interval display

The
service interval display detects when the
next
service
is due
for
your vehicle.
There are two service interval dispLay levels:
- Inspection or oil change reminder: After a cer­
tain mileage, a service reminder will appear in
the instrument cluster dispLay each time the ig­
nition is switched on/off. The distance or time
remaining will be shown briefly.
- Inspection or oil change due: When your
vehi­

cle is due for an inspection, oil change or
both,

the corresponding reminder Inspection
due!,

Oil change due! or Oil change and inspection

due!
will appear briefly after you switch the ig­
nition on/off.
Checking the service intervals
On the infotainment system, you can look up the
distance and time remaining until the next oil
change or next service inspection. Select the
fol­

lowing on the infotainment system:
|MENU|
but­
ton > Car
>
left control button > Servicing &
checks
>
Service intervals.

Applies
to: vehicles with flexible oil change service
You cannot check the service interval on a new
vehicle until it has been driven for about 500 km.
Qualified workshops reset the service interval af­
ter the oil is changed. The distance to the next oil
change is initially displayed based on the driving
profile prior to the oil change. Your own personal
driving profile is used subsequently to calculate
the remaining distance. Frequent cold starts or
short trips place extra demands on the engine oil
with the result that the oil has to be changed
more often.
Resetting the display
Your qualified workshop resets the service inter­
val display after each service.
It is very important that you reset the oil change
dispLay if
you
change the oil yourself. The
next
oil
change will be due after
a
fixed service interval.
To reset the display, select the following on the
infotainment system:
|MENU|
button > Car
>
left
control button > Servicing & checks
>
Service in­
tervals
>
Reset oil change interval.

(J) CAUTION

- Do not reset the oil change interval display
unless you have changed the oil.
- Keeping to the correct service intervals is
crucial for the operation, service life and re­
sidual value of the vehicle (and especially
for the life of the engine). Services must al­
ways be carried out promptly, even if the
mileage is Low.
