Emission Control System (ECS) Handling of DEF
Contamination / Incorrect DEF In the event that incorrect or contaminated fluid is filled inside DEF Tank, contact an authorized M&M dealer to determine the appropriate repair direction.
•
Ensure that DEF does not come into contact with skin, eyes, or clothing
•
Keep DEF out of the reach of children
•
If you have come into contact with DEF, clean affected skin immediately with plenty of water.
•
If DEF contacted with eyes, flush with plenty of water immediately and seek medical help.
•
If DEF is swallowed, rinse mouth immediately with plenty of water, drink plenty of water immediately and seek medical help.
•
Don’t store DEF refill containers inside the vehicle. Ammonia vapours may escape from container which have a pungent odour and are particularly irritating for skin, mucous membranes and eyes. Inhaling ammonia vapours may cause burning eyes, nose and throat, as well as cough and watering eyes.
•
Diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) must comply with ISO 22241-1 (AUS32) standard. There is no acceptable substitute. Failure to use the correct DEF may cause engine damage and/or void the warranty.
DEF Freezing and Thawing DEF will freeze around -11° C (12.2° F). The DEF tank is equipped with the heaters to thaw the frozen DEF and no external intervention required.
•
When opening the DEF filler cap, ammonia vapours may escape. Refill DEF in a well ventilated area only.
DO NOT DISCONNECT THE BATTERY POWER WITHIN 2 min. after the engine is switched off. The supply module back flow pump will operate to purge the DEF liquid back in to tank once the Engine is switched off. Failure to comply may cause SCR system damages.
•
If Diesel Exhaust Fluid is spilled on metal surfaces rinse and clean immediately with water. Failure to do so may leave permanent corrosive stains on the metal surfaces which cannot be removed.
DO NOT add any chemicals/additives to the Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) in an effort to prevent freezing. If chemicals/additives are added to the DEF, the after treatment system may be damaged.
