otes on AdBlue
n
Observe the notes on operating Ouids
(  page 441).
AdBlue n
is a water-soluble Ouid for the NOx
exhaust gas asertreatment of diesel engines.
It may be improper or punishable in some coun-
tries to operate a vehicle that uses no AdBlue n
or
one that does not comply with the speciNcations
of this Owner's Manual.
* NOTE Malfunctions due t
o the dilution of
AdBlue n
or the use of additive-enhanced
AdBlue n The function of the NOx exhaust gas
aser
-
treatment can be impaired by the use of
unsuitable denoxiNcation agents. 
Only use AdBlue n
in accor
dance with
ISO 22241. 
Do not dilute AdBlue n
wit
h water.
Do not use additive-enhanced AdBlue n
. *
NOTE Damag
e and malfunctions due to
impurities in AdBlue n Consequences of impurities in AdBlue
n
:
= incr

eased emission values
= damage to the catalytic converter
= NOx exhaust gas asertreatment malfunc-
tions 
Avoid impurities in AdBlue n
. AdBlue
n
r
esidues crystallise aser a period of
time, and contaminate the surfaces with which
they come into contact. Clean the dirty surfaces
with water as soon as possible.
When you open the AdBlue n
tank, small amounts
of ammonia vapour may escape. Do not inhale
any ammonia vapours that may be released. Only
Nll the AdBlue n
tank in well-ventilated areas.

consum
ption
The average AdBlue n
consumption is between 1%
and 5% of fuel consumption. Like fuel consump-
tion, AdBlue n
consumption is highly dependent
upon driving style and operating conditions. For
this reason, your vehicle's actual consumption Ng-
ures in day-to-day operating conditions may diMer
from the consumption Ngures calculated. The fre-
quency at which you will have to top up AdBlue n
will also vary. Have the AdBlue n
supply checked
at a qualiNed specialist workshop before making
journeys outside Europe. Before a longer stay out-
side Europe, consult a qualiNed specialist work-
shop.
AdBlue n

%
The AdBlue n
r ange shown depends strongly
on the driving style and operating conditions.
The actual range may therefore diMer from the
range currently displayed on the driver's dis-
play.
The information supplied in the Owner's Manual
