DS 3: Practical information / AdBlue® (BlueHDi)
DS 3 2016-2023 Owners Manual
To respect the environment and ensure
compliance with the Euro 6 standard, without
adversely affecting the performance or
fuel consumption of its Diesel engines, the
Manufacturer has taken the decision to equip
its vehicles with a system that combines SCR
(Selective Catalytic Reduction) with a Diesel
Particle Filter (DPF) for the treatment of exhaust
gases.
Unless otherwise indicated, check these
components in accordance with the
manufacturer's service schedule and according to
your engine.
Otherwise, have them checked by a dealer or a
qualified workshop...
Using a liquid called AdBlue® that contains
urea, a catalytic converter turns up to 85% of
the nitrogen oxides (NOx) into nitrogen and
water, which are harmless to health and the
environment...
