    Automatic back-siphonage of the reducing agent

    • It is important to wait until the back-siphonage process is completed fully before starting work in this area. This can take up to 10 minutes after switching off the ignition. 
    • Likewise, the battery must not be disconnected until after the back-siphonage process is complete, i.e. 10 minutes after switching off the ignition.
