AdBlue
is injected into the exhaust gas inside the
muffler in order to break down NOx (oxides of nitro-
gen) in the exhaust gas into water and nitrogen, and
thus reduces the amount of NOx.
WARNING
®
AdBlue
is a colorless, transparent, odorless
and harmless water solution (urea 32.5%,
water 67.5%; Freezing temperature –11°C), so
no problem will occur if you get it on your
skin. However, some persons with delicate
skin may in very rare cases get a rash, so
carry out the following procedure.
•
®
If AdBlue
gets on your skin, wash it off
with water. If there is any change in your
skin or it is painful, promptly see a doctor
to receive treatment.
•
In the event that you accidentally ingest
®
AdBlue
, drink one to two cupfuls of water
or milk, and promptly see a doctor to
receive treatment.
•
®
If AdBlue
gets into your eyes, immedi-
ately wash your eyes with a copious
amount of water, then see a doctor to
receive treatment.
