standard ISO 22241-1. Do not mix any
additives with the Ad Blue and do not di-
lute it with water.
-AdBlue is not a diesel additive . Do not
add it to the diesel tank. If Ad Blue is
mixed with diesel fuel, it can lead to
damage to the engine and the Ad Blue
tank system. The Limited New Vehicle
Warranty does not cover such damage.
- Ad Blue attacks surfaces such as painted
vehicle components, plastic and carpet.
Remove the fluid as quickly as possible
with a damp cloth and plenty of cold wa-
ter. If the Ad Blue has already crystal-
lized, use warm water and a sponge.
AdBlue residue that is not removed will
crystallize and can damage the affected
surface.

cle. If it leaks, the escaping Ad Blue could
damage the vehicle interior.

tact with clothing. If there is contact
