Selective Catalytic Reduction System
WHAT IS THE SELECTIVE
WARNING: The AdBlue® must be
refilled when low or replaced when
contaminated or your vehicle speed
becomes limited to 80 km/h (50 mph).
In these conditions, drive with caution
and immediately refill the AdBlue® tank.
If the AdBlue® tank becomes empty or
the fluid contaminated and it is not
replaced, your vehicle becomes limited
to engine idle only once stopped. In these
conditions, be cautious where you stop
your vehicle because you may not be
able to drive long distances or maintain
highway speeds until you refill or replace
the fluid.
CATALYTIC REDUCTION
SYSTEM
Selective catalytic reduction is an engine
emission control system that reduces
exhaust emission levels by injecting
AdBlue® into the exhaust system.

PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: Keep AdBlue® out of
reach of children. Avoid contact with
skin, eyes or clothing. In case of contact
with your eyes, immediately flush with
water and get prompt medical attention.
In case of contact with your skin,
immediately clean with soap and water.
If you swallow any AdBlue®, drink plenty
of water and immediately seek medical
attention.
Do not dilute the AdBlue® with water or
any other liquid.
Do not put AdBlue® in the vehicle fuel
tank. This can cause engine damage not
covered by the vehicle Warranty.
Do not put fuel or any additives in the
AdBlue® tank. This can cause damage not
covered by the vehicle Warranty.
Do not overfill the AdBlue® tank.
WARNING: Only refill the AdBlue®
tank in a well-ventilated area. When you
remove the AdBlue® tank filler cap or an
AdBlue® container cap, ammonia vapors
may escape. Ammonia vapors can be
irritating to skin, eyes and mucous
membranes. Inhaling ammonia vapors
can cause burning to the eyes, throat and
nose and cause coughing and watery
eyes.
Immediately remove any residue on
painted surfaces when filling with
AdBlue®.
SELECTIVE CATALYTIC
REDUCTION SYSTEM
REQUIREMENTS
Only use AdBlue® certified to ISO-22241.
WARNING: Tampering with or
disabling the selective catalytic
reduction system results in severe
vehicle performance limitation including
eventual speed limiting to 8 km/h
(5 mph).

Filling the Selective Catalytic
Reduction System Tank in Cold
Weather
AdBlue® is non-flammable, non-toxic,
colorless and water-soluble.
AdBlue® may freeze when the
temperature is below -11°C (12°F). Your
vehicle has a preheating system which
allows the fluid to operate below -11°C
(12°F). If you overfill the AdBlue® tank and
the fluid freezes, it may cause damage not
covered by the vehicle Warranty.
Note: It may not be possible to fully fill the
AdBlue® tank when the temperature is
below -11°C (12°F).
Note: If the AdBlue® tank is frozen, it could
not correctly display the fluid level or
recognize when you fill the tank. The
AdBlue® level updates when the tank
completely thaws out.

AdBlue® consumption is directly related
to fuel consumption and is governed by
many factors, for example driving style,
high speed driving, stop-start driving, air
conditioning usage, add-on accessories,
payload and towing. The AdBlue®
consumption may vary between 1% and
6% of the fuel consumption.

indication whether the concern is fluid
related or if there is a selective catalytic
