DEF will freeze at -11°C (12.2°F). This is natural phenomenon. The
DEF system in the vehicle is designed considering this and does not
require any external heating or additives to avoid freezing.
The Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) system purges to prevent
damage from freezing. Do NOT disconnect battery power within
20 minutes of switching the ignition key off. Failure to comply
may result in vehicle or property damage.
