The benchmark DAX was down 43 points, or 0.3 percent, at 15,909 after ending flat with a negative bias in the previous session.

Auto giant Daimler Truck Holding tumbled 3.6 percent after confirming preliminary results and keeping its outlook unchanged.

Fresenius Medical Care rose over 1 percent. The dialysis specialist said it is seeing improving trends in the first quarter after operating profit declined less than feared.
