162Driving and operatingAdBlue
General information The selective catalytic reduction
(BlueInjection) is a method to
substantially reduce the nitrogen
oxides in the exhaust emission. This
is achieved by injecting a Diesel
Exhaust Fluid (DEF) into the exhaust system. The ammonia released by
the fluid reacts with nitrous gases
(NO x) from the exhaust and turns it
into nitrogen and water.
The designation of this fluid is
AdBlue ®
. It is a non-toxic, non-
flammable, colourless and odourless
fluid which consists of 32% urea and
68% water.9 Warning
Avoid contact of your eyes or skin
with AdBlue.
In case of eye or skin contact,
rinse off with water.
Caution
Avoid contact of the paintwork with AdBlue.
In case of contact, rinse off with water.
AdBlue freezes at a temperature of
approx. -11 °C. As the vehicle is
equipped with an AdBlue pre-heater,
the emissions reduction at low
temperatures is ensured. The AdBlue
pre-heater works automatically.
Note
Frozen and again liquefied AdBlue is usable without quality loss.
The typical AdBlue consumption is
approx. 22 l per 10000 km to
15000 km depending on driving
behaviour (e.g. high load or towing).
Level warnings
Depending on the calculated range of AdBlue, different messages are
displayed in the Driver Information
Centre. The messages and the
restrictions are a legal requirement.
1. The first possible warning is Top
up emissions additive: Starting
prevented in 2400 km .
When switching on the ignition,
this warning will show up once
briefly with the calculated range.
Additionally, control indicator
B will illuminate and a chime
will sound. Driving is possible
without any restrictions.
2. The next warning level is entered with a range below 800 km. Themessage with the current range
will always be displayed when
ignition is switched on.
Additionally, control indicator
B will illuminate and a chime
will sound. Refill AdBlue before
entering the next warning level.
When driving, the chime sounds
and the message is displayed
every 100 km until the AdBlue
tank has been topped-up.
3. The next warning level is entered with a range below 100 km. The
message with the current range
will always be displayed when
ignition is switched on.
Additionally, control indicator
Page 165 of 287
Driving and operating163B will flash and a chime will
sound. Refill AdBlue as soon as
possible before the AdBlue tank is completely empty. Otherwise, a
restart of the engine will not be
possible.
When driving, the chime sounds
and the message is displayed
every 10 km until the AdBlue tank
has been topped-up.
4. The last warning level is entered when the AdBlue tank is empty.
Restart of the engine is not
possible. The following warning
message will be displayed:
Top up emissions additive:
Starting prevented
Additionally, control indicator
B will flash and a chime will
sound.
Refill the tank to a level of at least 5 l of AdBlue, otherwise restarting
of the engine is not possible.
Note
Depending on the engine different
levels may apply.High emission warnings
In the event of a fault with the
emissions control system, different messages are displayed in the Driver
Information Centre. The messages
and the restrictions are a legal
requirement.
1. If a fault is detected for the first time, the warning Emissions fault
is displayed.
Additionally, control indicators
B , C and W will illuminate
and a chime will sound. Driving is
possible without any restrictions.
If it is a temporary fault, the alert
disappears during the next
journey, after self-diagnosis of the
emissions control system.
2. If the fault is confirmed by the emission control system, the
following message will be
displayed:
Emissions fault: Starting
prevented in 1100 km .
Additionally, control indicators
B , C and W will illuminate
and a chime will sound.When driving, the message is
displayed every 30 s while the
fault persists.
3. If the last warning level is entered,
the following warning message
will be displayed:
Emissions fault: Starting
prevented
Additionally, control indicators
B , C and W will illuminate
and a chime will sound.
Consult a workshop for
assistance.
Refilling AdBlueCaution
Only use AdBlue that complies
with European standards
DIN 70 070 and ISO 22241-1.
Do not use additives.
Do not dilute AdBlue.
Otherwise the selective catalytic
reduction system could be
damaged.
Page 166 of 287
164Driving and operatingNote
Whenever a filling pump with a
nozzle for passenger cars is not
available at a filling station, use only
AdBlue bottles or canisters with a
sealed refill adapter for refilling, to
prevent splashback and overspill,
and in order to ensure that the fumes
from the AdBlue tank are captured
and do not emerge. AdBlue in
bottles or canisters is available in
many filling stations and can be
purchased e.g. at Opel dealers and
other retail outlets.
Since AdBlue has a limited
durability, check the date of expiry
before refilling.
Note
Refill the AdBlue tank to a level of at
least 5 l to ensure that the new
AdBlue level is being detected.
In case AdBlue refill is not
successfully detected:1. Continuously drive the vehicle for 10 min making sure that
vehicle speed is always higher
than 20 km/h.
2. If AdBlue refill is detected successfully, AdBlue supply-
driven warnings or limitations will
disappear.
If AdBlue refill is still not detected,
seek the assistance of a workshop.
If AdBlue must be refilled at
temperatures below -11 °C, the
refilling of AdBlue may not be
detected by the system. In this
event, park the vehicle in a space
with a higher ambient temperature
until AdBlue is liquified.
Note
When unscrewing the protective cap
from the filler neck, ammonia fumes
may emerge. Do not inhale as the fumes have a pungent smell. The
fumes are not harmful by inhalation.
The AdBlue tank should be filled
completely. This must be done if the
warning message regarding
prevention of an engine restart is
already displayed.The vehicle must be parked on a level surface.
1. Remove key from ignition switch.
2. Open the driver's door to access the AdBlue flap.
3. Open the AdBlue flap by inserting
a finger in the slot in the low part
of the flap. Pull the flap to the front.
