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.
