DEF
Important safety notes Comply with the important safety notes for ser-
vice products when handling DEF ( Y
page 364).
DEF is a water-soluble fluid for the exhaust gas
aftertreatment of diesel engines. It is: R
not poisonous R
colorless and odorless R
not flammable
When you open the DEF container, small
amounts of ammonia vapor may be released.
Ammonia vapors have a pungent odor and are
particularly irritating to the skin, to mucous
membranes and to the eyes. You may experi-
ence a burning sensation in your eyes, nose and
throat. Coughing and watering of the eyes are
possible.
Do not inhale ammonia vapors. Fill the DEF tank
only in well-ventilated areas.
Low outside temperatures DEF freezes at a temperature of approximately
-11 †. The vehicle is delivered from the factory
equipped with a DEF preheating system. Winter
operation can thus be guaranteed even at tem-
peratures below -11 †.
Additives
! Only use DEF in accordance with ISO
22241. Do not use additives with DEF and do
not dilute DEF with water. This may destroy
the BlueTEC exhaust gas aftertreatment sys-
tem. Purity
! Impurities in DEF (e.g. due to other service
products, cleaning agents or dust) lead to: R
increased emission values R
damage to the catalytic converter R
engine damage R
malfunctions in the BlueTEC exhaust gas
aftertreatment system
Assuring the purity of DEF is particularly impor-
tant with respect to avoiding malfunctions in the
BlueTEC exhaust gas aftertreatment system.
If DEF is pumped out of the DEF tank, e.g. during
repair work, it must not be returned to the tank.
The purity of the fluid can no longer be guaran-
teed.
