Selective Catalytic Reduction System
WHAT IS THE SELECTIVE
WARNING: The AdBlue® must be
refilled when low or replaced when
contaminated or your vehicle speed
becomes limited to 80 km/h (50 mph).
In these conditions, drive with caution
and immediately refill the AdBlue® tank.
If the AdBlue® tank becomes empty or
the fluid contaminated and it is not
replaced, your vehicle becomes limited
to engine idle only once stopped. In these
conditions, be cautious where you stop
your vehicle because you may not be
able to drive long distances or maintain
highway speeds until you refill or replace
the fluid.
