How to top up AdBlue in the appropriate tank

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Checks and maintenance

In this video we can see how to top up the AdBlue fluid in the appropriate tank. AdBlue is the fluid used to clean the emissions of diesel vehicles from harmful emissions, and its consumption is linked to the fuel consumption. The AdBlue tank should never be allowed to run empty, as in this case the vehicle will not be able to restart. However, there is a system that warns when the additive level is approaching reserve. Make sure to always use a valid product, compliant with ISO 22241-1 regulations; do not trust too cheap products. AdBlue drums always come with a funnel for refueling; park the vehicle on a flat surface, and identify the filler neck, which is often located next to the diesel one, and is blue in color. Approach the funnel and pour, without reaching the cap. Close the cap and the flap. Many gas stations also have pumps for AdBlue. This option is very good because the fluid remains in the dark: in fact, light is very harmful to this liquid.

How to Open the Bonnet on the Lancia Y

To open the bonnet on this vehicle, follow these simple instructions: first, open the driver's door and locate the lever positioned just below the dashboard, marked with an image of the vehicle with the bonnet open. Pull this lever towards you until you hear a "click" indicating the bonnet is released. Next, exit the cabin and stand in front of the bonnet to disengage the safety catch and complete the opening. To do this, slightly lift the bonnet, locate the yellow lever underneath, and pull it to the left to fully release and open the bonnet.
