Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) Tank

On the right side and on the rear is the Diesel
Exhaust Fluid (DEF) tank. The tank can hold
60 l. As a guide , use 5 — 7% DEF
WARNING
Use only pure certified DEF from an
approved dispenser or sealed container.
CAUTION
Do not put diesel fuel in the DEF tank.
Diesel fuel, if sprayed into the hot
exhaust along with the DEF, could ignite
explosively causing a fire resulting in
personal injury or damage to the exhaust
system.
Note: Avoid spilling DEF on to painted
surfaces. In case of spilling, rinse the painted
surfaces immediately.
The level of DEF is indicated on the display
in the "Gauges" menu, in the "DEF tank,
level" submenu.
If the level of DEF drops below defined
level (12% of the tank capacity), an
information or warning message is displayed
on the dashboard and the DEF dash lamp
illuminates. Fill the tank as quickly as
possible.
