The alert is triggered while driving, when the
fault is detected for the first time, and thereafter
when switching on the ignition for subsequent
journeys, while the cause of the fault persists.
If the fault is temporary, the alert
disappears during the next journey, after
self-diagnostic checks of the SCR emissions
control system.
Malfunction confirmed during the
permitted driving phase (between 685
miles and 0
miles (1,100 km and 0 km))
If the fault indication is still displayed
permanently after 31 miles (50 km) of driving, the
fault in the SCR system is confirmed.
The AdBlue warning lamp flashes, and an
"Emissions fault: Starting prevented in X
miles" or "NO START IN X miles" message is
displayed, indicating the driving range in miles or
kilometres.
While driving, the message is displayed every 30
