If the AdBlue warning light is on in the instrument cluster of your Mercedes S-Class, it means that the fluid level in the emissions system has reached the minimum and needs to be topped off. This is a very simple and quick operation; let's see how to proceed in this tutorial.

First, purchase a jug of urea from any auto parts store, then turn off the engine and open the trunk.
