Topping up with AdBlue
®
Before topping up, please read the
following warnings carefully.
Precautions in use
In certain conditions (high ambient
temperature, for example), the risk of ammonia
being released cannot be discounted: do not
inhale the fluid. Ammonia vapour has an irritant
effect on mucous membranes (eyes, nose and
throat).
Keep AdBlue
®
out of reach of children, in
its original container or bottle.
Never transfer AdBlue
®
to another
container: it would lose its purity.
Use only AdBlue
®
liquid that meets the
ISO
22241 standard.
AdBlue
®
is a urea-based solution. This fluid is
non-flammable, colourless and odourless (kept
in a cool area).
In the event of contact with the skin, wash the
affected area with soap and running water. In
the event of contact with the eyes, immediately
rinse the eyes with large amounts of water
or with an eye wash solution for at least
15
minutes. If a burning sensation or irritation
persists, get medical attention.
If swallowed, immediately rinse the mouth with
clean water and then drink plenty of water.
Never dilute AdBlue
®
with water.
Never pour AdBlue
®
into the diesel fuel
tank.
Containers are available from a
CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
You can also visit a service station
equipped with AdBlue pumps specially
designed for private vehicles and light
goods vehicles.
Never top up from an AdBlue
®
dispenser
reserved for heavy goods vehicles.
Recommendations on storage
AdBlue
®
freezes below around -11°C and
deteriorates above 25°C. It is recommended
that bottles or containers are stored in a cool
place and protected from direct sunlight.
Under these conditions, the fluid can be kept
for at least a year.
If the fluid has frozen, it can be used once
it has completely thawed out at ambient
temperature.
Never store bottles or containers of
AdBlue
®
in your vehicle.
Do not dispose of AdBlue
®
bottles or
containers in the household waste.
Place them in a container provided for
this purpose or take them to your dealer.
