Fuel consumption information H
Environmental note
CO 2(carbon dioxide) is the gas which scien-
tists believe to be principally responsible for
global warming (the greenhouse effect). Your
vehicle's CO 2emissions are directly related to
fuel consumption and therefore depend on:
R efficient use of the fuel by the engine
R driving style
R other non-technical factors, such as envi-
ronmental influences, road conditions or
traffic flow
You can minimise your vehicle's CO 2emis-
sions by driving carefully and having it serv-
iced regularly.
The vehicle will use more fuel than usual in the following situations:
R at very low outside temperatures
R in urban traffic
R on short journeys
R in mountainous terrain
R when towing a trailer
i Only for certain countries: you can find
the current consumption and emission val-
ues of your vehicle in the COC documents
(EU CERTIFICATE OF CONFORMITY). These documents are delivered with your vehicle.
The consumption figures were, in each
case, based on the currently applicable ver- sion:
R for vehicles that comply with standards
up to and including the EURO 4 standard,
in accordance with EU Directive
80/1268/EEC
R for vehicles that comply with or exceed
the Euro 5 standard, in accordance with
Regulation (EC) No. 715/2007 Deviations from these values may occur
under normal operating conditions. AdBlue
®
Important safety notes AdBlue
®
is a water-soluble fluid for the
exhaust gas aftertreatment of diesel engines.
It is:
R non-toxic
R colourless and odourless
R non-flammable
If you open the AdBlue ®
tank, small amounts
of ammonia vapour may be released.
Ammonia vapours have a pungent odour and
are particularly irritating to the skin, to
mucous membranes and to the eyes. You may experience a burning sensation in your eyes,
nose and throat. You may also experience
coughing and watery eyes.
Do not inhale any ammonia vapours that may
be released. Only fill the AdBlue ®
tank in well-
ventilated areas.
Low outside temperatures AdBlue
®
freezes at a temperature of approx-
imately -11 †. The vehicle is delivered from
the factory equipped with an AdBlue ®
pre-
heating system. Winter operation can thus be
guaranteed even at temperatures below
-11 †.
Additives !
Only use AdBlue ®
in accordance with ISO
22241. Do not use additives with AdBlue ®
and do not dilute AdBlue ®
with water. This
may destroy the BlueTEC exhaust gas after-
treatment system. 474
