Practical information
Important: in the event of a top-up after

vehicle or introducing the key into the
ignition switch.
Switch on the ignition, then, after
10 seconds, start the engine.
Never dispose of AdBlue ® additive
bottles in the household waste. Place
them in a special container provided
this purpose or take them to your dealer.
