The diesel exhaust fluid tank filler neck is
located next to the fuel filler neck and has
a blue cap. Fill the tank using a fluid pump
at a diesel exhaust fluid filling station or a
diesel exhaust fluid container. The capacity
of the diesel exhaust fluid tank is 21 liters.
Note: You must open the fuel filler door
before you can open the diesel exhaust fluid
filler door.
Note: Immediately wash off any diesel
exhaust fluid that has spilled on to a painted
surface with soapy water.
Filling the Diesel Exhaust Fluid Tank
Using a Fuel Station Pump
Filling the diesel exhaust fluid tank using
a pump is similar to a refuelling your
vehicle. The diesel exhaust fluid pump
nozzle will shut off automatically when the
tank is full.
Note: Some filling stations utilize a
magnetic mechanism in the pump nozzle
that may prevent refilling the diesel exhaust
fluid tank. To overcome this issue you will
need to locate another filling station or use
a refill container.
Filling the Diesel Exhaust Fluid Tank
Using a Container
The following procedure applies to
Motorcraft diesel exhaust fluid or similar
fluid containers. Always follow the
manufacturer's instructions.
1. Remove the diesel exhaust fluid
container cap. Place the spout on to
the container and tighten it until you
feel a strong resistance.
2. Remove the diesel exhaust fluid tank
filler cap.
3. Insert the spout in to the filler neck until
the seal on the spout seats on to the
filler neck. Pour the fluid in to the tank.
When the tank is full the fluid will stop
flowing automatically.

the container retain it for later use. The
spout is re-useable. Wash the spout with
clean water prior to storage. Do not use the

Filling the Diesel Exhaust Fluid Tank in
Cold Climates
Diesel exhaust fluid may freeze if the
ambient temperature is below -11°C. Your
vehicle has a preheating system which
allows diesel exhaust fluid to operate
below -11°C. If you do not use your vehicle
for an extended period when the ambient
temperature is below -11°C, the fluid in the
tank may freeze. If the tank is overfilled
and the fluid freezes it may damage the
tank. This is not covered by the vehicle
warranty.
