AdBlue® (diesel engine only) The BlueTEC exhaust gas aftertreatment system requires a reducing agent (AdBlue®) in order to function properly. Refilling with AdBlue® is part of the regular maintenance service work. A tankful of AdBlue® should suffice until the next maintenance service under normal driving conditions. When the AdBlue® tank is low, the message Check Additive See Operator's Manual appears in the multifunction display. When the AdBlue® level drops to the minimum level, the message Remaining Starts: 20 appears in the multifunction display. Practical hints i When the message Remaining Starts: 20 appears in the multifunction display, you can start the engine 20 more times. If you do not add AdBlue®, the engine cannot be started beyond that point. Fill the AdBlue® tank with approximately 1 gal (3.79 l) AdBlue® (corresponds to approximately 2 AdBlue® refill containers) or have the AdBlue® tank filled by an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center. i For refilling outside the maintenance service intervals, refill the AdBlue® tank with approximately 1 gal (3.79 l) AdBlue® (corresponds to approximately 2 AdBlue® refill containers). Always use the particular AdBlue® refill containers for refilling outside the maintenance service interval.
