Your van runs on Diesel and does not drive without AdBlue (=DEF). Please pay attention to the display! What is AdBlue and why do I need to refill it?
You can fill up the tanks via the openings at the side of the driver´s door.
Above you see the diesel tank and below the AdBlue tank. On the Couple Cottage, you can simply insert the fuel nozzle without first opening it with a key.
Access the AdBlue tank by opening the plastic cover at the bottom:
AdBlue
The on-board computer also tells you when the AdBlue level is low. A message appears together with this symbol:
On some models you can check the AdBlue level in the cockpit:
- Press the menu button on the multifunction steering wheel (to the right, next to the OK button).
- Tilt the OK button down to navigate to Vehicle Maintenance (spanner icon).
- Here you can see, among other things, the AdBlue range. Navigate to AdBlue info to see the level of the tank.
After filling, wait until the indicator light on the dashboard goes out before moving the vehicle.
The indicator light can stay on from a few seconds to about half a minute. If the engine is started and driven off beforehand, the indicator light will stay on for a longer period of time, but this will not affect the functioning of the engine.
If filling is done with an empty AdBlue tank, wait 2 minutes before starting the engine.
Caution!
Be careful not to fill diesel into the water tank at the rear!
Do not confuse the diesel tank with the AdBlue tank when refuelling!
