Volvo FH - Filling with Adblue

Filling with AdBlue
AdBlue
is not classed as being hazardous to the
environment but should still be handled with care.
The
AdBlue
tank is mounted either on the right-hand
side or left-hand side of the truck. The size of the tank
varies proportionally with the size of the fuel tank.
Filling the
AdBlue
tank is via local distribution tank
depots or fuel stations with a wide range of products.
For further information on
AdBlue
availability, visit
http://www.findAdBlue.com. Check the level in the
tank each time the truck is refueled. This is done to
ensure the amount of
AdBlue
is sufficient for the
planned driving distance. Do not fill the
AdBlue
tank
with fuel; this will damage the
SCR
system.
To prevent other liquids than
AdBlue
being poured
into the
AdBlue
by mistake, the tank mouth and tank
hole are designed so that they will not accept any other
filling equipment. To further prevent any mistake in
this area, the tank cap is painted blue and is marked
with
AdBlue
. There is also a label on the tank warning
against filling with anything but
AdBlue
.
Take care not to fill the fuel tank with
AdBlue
when
standard filling equipment is not being used. This will
contaminate the fuel and cause
AdBlue
to enter the
injection system and combustion chambers, which can
damage the engine.

Note!
Filling with anything other than
AdBlue
can cause problems with the
SCR
system and light up the
OBD
symbol on the instrument panel.
Caution!
Never put
AdBlue
into the fuel
tank. This can damage the engine
and the fuel system.
