Three-stage safety system Com prising:

z three-point seat belts,

z belt tensioners at the front seats,

z airb ag systems for driver and front passenger 3.

The three stages are activated in sequence depending on the severity of the accident:

z The automatic seat belt locking d evices prevent the belt strap from b eing pulled out and thus ensure that the vehicle occ upa nts are retained in their seats.

z The seat belts of the front seats are pulled downwards at the belt buckles. This tightens the seat belt, the occupants are slowed down at an early stage of vehicle deceleration and stress on the body is red uced.

z The airbag systems are also triggered in the event of severe a ccidents a nd form a safety cushion for the occupa nts.

Carefully follow the instructions accompanying the child restraint system.

Three-point seat belts The seat b elts have an automa tic retractor, so that the belt is sp ring tensioned and always lies against the body.

Information on the correct seat position 3 37.

The belts are loc ked during heavy acc eleration or deceleration of the vehicle. This prevents the seat belt from extending, keep ing the occupant in his or her seat.

9 Warning

The a irb ag system s serve to supp lement the three-point seat belts and belt tensioners. The seat belts must therefore always be worn. Disregard of these instructions may lead to injuries or endanger life. Vehicle passengers should be informed acc ordingly .

47Seats, Interior

Seat belts are only designed for use by one person at a tim e. They are not suitable for persons young er than 12 years of age or smaller than 150 cm.

Belt tensioners In the event of a hea d-on or rear-end collision of a certain severity, the front seat belts are pulled down at the buckles and thereby tightened.

Actuation of belt tensioners is indicated by illum ina tion of control indica tor v; see next column.

Trigg ered belt tensioners must be replaced by a workshop. Belt tensioners can only be trigg ered once.

Control indic ator v for belt tensioners The functionality of the b elt tensioner system is m onitored electronic ally together with the airbag systems and indica ted v ia control ind icator v . When the ignition is switched on, the control ind ic ator comes on for approx. 4 seconds. If it does not com e on, does not g o out after 4 seconds or comes on while driving, there is a fa ult in the belt tensioner system or the airbag systems 3 57. The systems ma y fail to deploy in the event of an accident.

Triggered b elt tensioners are indica ted by steady illumination of v .

49Seats, Interior

The system ’s integrated self-diagnostics allows faults to be quickly remedied.

Imp or tant z Do not affix or place accessories or other

objec ts within the deploym ent zone of the belt tensioners (in the area of the belt buckle). Do not make any modifications to belt tensioner components and the inertia real device bec ause this will invalidate the vehicle type approval.

z The belt tensioner and airbag system control electronics can be found in the centre console area. In order to avoid malfunctions, do not store mag netic objects in this a rea.

z When using the rear seat, m ake sure that the c om ponents of the front seat belt are not d amaged by shoes or other objects. Not dirt must get into the inertia reel of the seat belt.

z indep endently of the side airb ag system 3.

The ignition must be switched on.

Examples of events triggering the front airbag system:

z Impact against a non-y ielding obstacle: the front airbags are trigg ered at low vehicle speed.

z Impact against a yield ing obstacle:(such as another vehicle): the front airbags are only triggered at a hig her vehicle speed.

55Seats, Interior

When trigg ered , the front airbags inflate in milliseconds to form a safety cushion for the d river and front passenger. The forward movement of the front seat occupants is c hecked, thereby sub stantially reducing the risk of injury to the upp er body and hea d.

No im pairment of view will occur, because the a irb ags inflate and deflate so quickly that it is often not even noticed in an accident.

The front airbag system will not be triggered in the event of z the ignition is switched off,

z minor frontal collisions,

z accidents in which the vehicle overturns,

z collisions involving a side or rear impa ct,

that is to say, if it w ould not be of benefit to the oc cup ants.

9 Warning

Optimum protection is only provided with the seat in the proper position 3 37. Keep the area in which the airbag inflates c lear of obstructions. Wear the three-point seat belt properly fa stened. The front a irba g system is an additiona l safety device, not a replacement for your sea t belt.

56 Seats, Interior

Sid e a irbag 3 The side airbag system consists of a n airbag in each front seat backrest. This can be identified by the word AIRBAG.

The side airbag system comprises:

z an airba g with inflator in the ba ck of the driver’s and front passenger seat respectively,

z the control elec tronics,

z the side im pact sensors,

z the control indica tor for airba g system s v in the instrument.

The side a irb ag system w ill be triggered :

z depending on the severity of the accident,

z depending on the type of impact,

z within the range shown in Fig. 13195 S on the centre d oor p illa r of the driver’s or front passenger side,

z indep endently of the front airbag system.

The ignition must be switched on.

When triggered, the side a irb ag infla tes in milliseconds to form a safety cushion for the driver or front passenger in the respective door area. This substantially reduc es the risk of injury to the upper b od y in the event of a side-on collision.

57Seats, Interior

The sid e airbags w ill not be trigg ered in the event of

z the ignition is switched off,

z frontal collisions,

z accidents in whic h the vehicle overturns,

z collisions involving a rear im pact,

z collisions involving a side impact outside the passenger c ell.

Control ind icator v for airbag systemsThe func tionality of the airbag system s is monitored electronica lly together with the belt tensioner system and indicated via control indicator v . When the ignition is switched on, the control indicator comes on for a pprox. 4 seconds. If it does not come on, does not go out after 4 sec onds, or it comes on while driving , there is a fault in the airbag tensioner system or in the b elt tensioner systems 3 48. The systems may fa il to deploy in the event of an accident.

Trigg ered airbag systems are indicated by steady illumination of v .

The system’s integrated self-diagnostics allows faults to b e q uick ly rem edied.

9 Warning

Keep the area in which the airbag infla tes clea r of ob structions.

9 Warning

Have c ause of fault remedied imm ediately by a workshop.

Im portant

z No objects or accessories must be placed in the area in which the airbag s inflate, as they could ca use injury when the com ponents are deployed.

z Do not p la ce a ny objects between the airb ag systems and the vehicle occ upa nts. Danger of injury . Do not install a child restraint system 3 on the front passenger seat. Danger to life.

z Use the hooks in the roof frame only to hang up light articles of clothing or c oa t hangers. Do not place any objects in the pockets of the hanging items – risk of injury.

z The airbag system s and belt tensioner control electronics c an be found in the centre c onsole area. In ord er to avoid malfunctions, do not store magnetic ob jects in this area.

z Do not stic k anything on the steering wheel, instrum ent panel or front seat back rests in the vicinity of the airbags. Do not cover any of these areas with other m aterials.

z Use only a dry cloth or interior cleaner to clean the steering wheel, instrument panel and front seat back rests. Do not use any aggressive cleaning agents.

z Only protective covers whic h are approved for your vehicle with side airbag may be fitted on the front seats. When fitting the protec tive covers, ma ke sure that the airbag units on the outboard sides of the front seat back rests a re not covered.

z The airb ag systems are triggered indep endently of one another depending on the severity of the accident and typ e of imp act.

z Each airbag is only deployed once. H ave deployed airbags rep la ced by a workshop immediately .

z The speeds, d irections of m ovement and deform ation p roperties of the vehicles, and the properties of the obstac le concerned, determine the severity of the accident and triggering of the airbags. The degree of da mage to your vehic le and the resulting repair costs alone are not indicative tha t the criteria for triggering of the airbags were m et.

z Do not perform any alterations on the components of the airbag system, as this would render the vehicle unroadworthy.

z We recom mend ha ving the steering wheel, the instrument panel, all panelling parts, the door sea ls, the handles and the seats removed by a workshop.

z The applica ble safety regulations must be adhered to when the vehicle is disposed of. The vehicle should therefore be disposed of by a recycling company.

z Anyone weig hing less than 35 kg should seat in the rear seat.

9 Warning

Misted light covers The inside of the light bezels may mist briefly when sub jected to adverse wet a nd cold winter cond itions, strong ra in or after the vehic le is washed. The m isting will clear up on its own after a brief period. This c an be facilitated by switching on the lights.

Headlights when driving abroad The asymm etrical dipped b eam increases the field of v ision on the p assenger sid e of the lane.

This c auses glare for oncoming tra ffic if the vehicle is driven in countries where traffic drives on the opp osite side of the road.

To avoid glare, have head lig hts a djusted in a workshop or ha ve covers fitted to both headlights.

Sta rting the engineBriefly operate foot brake when starting the eng ine. The engine c an now be started in position N and with the foot brake opera ted. N appea rs in the gear display . If the foot brake is not op erated , "N" flashes in the g ear display and the engine ca nnot be sta rted.

If no brake lights are op erational, the engine will not sta rt.

Operat ion of Easytronic t ransmission using the selector lever Alw ays move the selector lever all the w ay in the chosen direction. Observe the gear or mode indica tor in the transmission display .

Selec tor lever in N Neutral.

Selector lever in o (centre position) Moving the selec tor lever from N to o (centre position) while depressing the foot brake time switches Ea sytronic to automatic m ode a nd engages first gear (second gear if winter prog ra mme is ena bled). "A" app ears in the gear display.

When the foot brake is released the vehic le starts to "creep". If the foot brake is not operated, "A" starts to fla sh. S tart off by imm ediately pressing the a ccelerator pedal or m ove selec tor lever back to N and repeat p rocedure with foot brake operated.

In automatic m od e, the tra nsmission shifts into other gears autom atically based on driving c onditions.


Selector lever in A/MSwitch b etween Automatic and M anual mode.

In ma nual m ode, a gear can be selected manually b y tapp ing the selector lever to the + or - position. The transm ission display indicates the current gea r.

If the engine speed is too low Easytronic will automatically shift to a lower gear even in Manual mode. This prevents the engine from stalling.

Selec tor lever in + or -

If a higher g ear is selected when the running speed is too low, or a lower gear when the speed is too high, no shift is carried out. This prevents the eng ine from running at too low or too high revs.

Gears can be skipped by jog ging the selector lever repeatedly at short intervals.

When the vehicle is in automatic m od e, Easytronic switches to manual mode when the selector lever is tapped to p osition + or -. The transm ission display indicates the current gear.

Selec tor lever in RReverse gear. Eng age only when vehicle is stationary.

Press knob on selector lever, select R , "R" appea rs in gear display.

If R is selected when the vehic le is in motion, "R" flashes in the transm ission display and no g ear is eng aged.

Stopping the vehicle In automatic or m anua l mode, first gear is automatically engaged (second gea r if the Winter programm e is eng aged) and the clutch is released when the vehicle is stationary . In R , reverse gear remains eng aged.

If a warning signal sounds when the driver’s door is opened (foot bra ke not depressed), m ove the selector lever to N and a pply the handbrake.

When stopping on gradients, engage the handbrake or depress the brake peda l. To prevent overheating of the clutch, do not increa se engine speed to ensure smooth idling when in gear.

Switc h off engine if stopping for a leng thy period , e.g. in traffic jams or at level crossings.

Winter progr amme T In the event of diffic ulties starting off on slip pery roads, p ress the T button ("A" and T a ppear in the transm ission d isplay). Ea sytronic switches to automatic m od e and the vehicle sets off in second gea r.

The Winter p rogram me is switched off by:

z pressing the T button again,

z turning off the ignition,

z switching to Manual mode,

z when clutch temp erature is too high.

Kickdown If the accelerator peda l is pressed pa st the pressure point, the transmission shifts to a low er gear depending on engine speed.

During kickdown no manual gear shifting is possible.

When the engine speed approaches its up per limit, the transm ission shifts to a higher gea r during kickdown even in Manua l mode.

Without kickdown this automatic shift is not effected in Manual mode.

Engine braking Automatic modeWhen driving d ow nhill, Ea sytronic does not shift into higher g ears until a fairly high eng ine speed has been rea ched. When brak ing, the transmission shifts down in good tim e.

Manual m od eTo utilise the engine braking effect, selec t a lower gear in good time when driving downhill.

"Rocking the vehicle" To rock a vehicle that is stuck in sand, mud, snow or a rut only, a lternate the selector lever b etween o (centre p osition) and R positions and depress the a ccelerator pedal slightly . Keep the engine speed as low as possib le and avoid rapid acc eleration.


Manoeuvring the vehicle To manoeuvre the vehicle back and forth during attem pts to park or in garage entrances the creeping movement can be utilised by releasing the foot brake.

Never actuate a ccelerator and brake pedals simultaneously.

To prevent dam age, Ea sytronic disengages the "creep function" at extremely high automatic c lutch tem peratures.

Vehicle storag eAp ply the ha nd brake and rem ove the key from the ignition. The previously selected gear (shown on the transm ission display) remains selec ted. No gear is selected in selector lever p osition N.

When the ignition is switched off, Easytronic no longer responds to movem ent of the selector lever.

If the ignition key is not removed, the battery m ay be discharged if the vehicle is then left to stand for a lengthy period of tim e.

If the handbrake has not been ap plied, the control indicator R flashes for a few second s a fter the ignition is switched off.

Fault To prevent d amage to the Easytronic transmission, the clutch is closed automatically at high c lutch temp eratures.

Control indicator A illuminates in the event of a fault. Continued driving is possible. Manual mode ca nnot be used for shifting.

If a n "F" is also shown in the transmission display, it is not possible to continue driving.

Have c ause of fault remedied by a workshop. The system ’s integrated self diag nostics allow faults to be quickly remedied.


Interrup tion of power supply The c lutch is not disengaged if there is an interruption of the power supply when a gear is engaged. The vehicle cannot move.

If the battery is discharged, start the vehic le using jum p lea ds 3 122.

If the cause is not a flat battery , contact a workshop for assistance. If the vehic le has to be moved out of flowing traffic, disengage clutch as follows:

1. Ap ply hand brake a nd switch off ignition.

2. Open bonnet and engage support.

3. C lean the transmission around the ca p (see Fig. 13739 S) so that no dirt can get into the opening when the cap is rem oved.

4. Rotate cap to slacken and remove by lifting upwards – see Fig. 13739 S.

5. Turn the a djusting screw clockwise using a flat-head screwdriver (vehicle tools 3 3 129) until clear resistance can be felt. The clutch has now been disenga ged.

6. Fit cleaned cap again. The cap m ust be in full conta ct with the housing.

Contact a workshop for assistance immed iately.

Manual transmissionReverse gear: With vehicle stationary, three seconds after depressing the c lutch, pull the ring up and enga ge g ear.

If the gear does not enga ge, set the lever in neutral, relea se the clutch pedal and depress again; then repeat g ear selection.

Do not grind the clutch unnecessarily.

When operating, depress the clutch ped al completely . Do not use the p edal as a foot rest (increases c lutch wear).

Ca ution

Do not turn beyond the resistance, since this can da mage the Easytronic tra nsmission.

Ca ution

Towing the vehic le and starting the engine is not permitted w hen the clutch ha s been released in this way, although the vehicle can be m oved a short distance.


Driving hints The first 600 miles (1000 km)Drive your vehicle at various speeds. Do not use full throttle. Never allow the eng ine to labour at low revs.

Change gear frequently. Do not press the accelerator pedal more than approx. 3/4 in all gears.

Do not drive faster than three quarters of max imum speed.

Do not brake unnecessarily hard for the first 125 miles (200 km ).

During the first drive, sm oke m ay d evelop because of wax and oil evaporating off the exhaust system. Park the vehicle in the open for a while after the first drive and avoid inhaling the fum es.

Fuel and engine oil consum ption is higher than norm al during the running-in period.

Never coa st with engine not running Many units will not function in this situation (e.g. brake servo unit, power steering 3). Driving in this manner is a da nger to yourself and others.

Brake servo unit When the engine is not running, the brake servo unit is no longer effective once the brake peda l has been depressed once or twice. Braking effect is not reduced , but significantly greater force is required for braking.

Electric power steering 3 If the electric power steering fa ils when being towed w ith the eng ine switched off – the vehicle can still be steered, but considera bly more forc e is req uired.

Dr iving in mountainous terrain or with a caravan/trailer The cooling fan is electrically operated. Its cooling p ow er is therefore independent of the engine speed.

Since a considerable amount of heat is genera ted at high engine speeds and less at slower speeds, do not shift d ow n when climbing hills whilst the vehicle is still coping with the gradient in the higher g ear.

Diesel engines: On gradients of 10% or more, do not drive fa ster tha n 20 mph (30 km/h) in first gear or 30 mph (50 km/h) in second gea r.

Driv ing wi th a roof loa d Do not exceed the perm issible roof load, 3 177. For reasons of safety, distribute the load evenly and strap it down firmly using reta ining straps so that it cannot slip. Check the ty re pressure when the vehicle is loaded. Do not travel faster than 75 mph (120 km/h). Check and re-tighten the stra ps freq uently . Observe country-specific regula tions.

Sw itching off the engine When you switch off, fans in the eng ine compa rtm ent may continue running for a time to cool the engine.

If the engine temperature is very high, e.g. after driving in mountainous terrain: allow the engine to id le for approx im ately two minutes in order to prevent heat acc um ulation.

Vehicles with turbocharged engine After running at high eng ine speeds or high eng ine loads, op erate the engine briefly at a low load or run in neutral for approx. 30 seconds before switching off in order to protec t the turbocharger.


Save energy – m ore m iles Please observe the running-in hints on the previous pag e and the tips for sav ing energy on the following pa ges.

Good, technica lly correct and economical driving ensures ma ximum durability and performance for your vehic le.

Overrun cut-off The fuel supply is autom atically cut off during overrun, e.g. when the vehicle is driven w ith a gear engaged but no throttle application. Overrun cut-off is deactivated if catalytic converter temperature is high.

Vehicles with turbocharged engine Flow -g enerated noises may be aud ible if the a ccelerator is released quickly on account of air flow in the turbocharger.

Eng ine sp eed Drive in a low engine speed range for each gear as much as possible.

Wa rming up Allow the engine to warm up while driving. Do not warm it up by letting it run at idling speed. Do not apply full throttle until the engine has reached op erating temperature.

In autom atic mode, Easytronic 3 does not shift to the higher gears after a cold start until higher engine speeds are reached. This allows the ca ta lytic converter to quic kly reach the temperature that is required for optim um pollutant reduction.

Correct g ear selection Do not race your engine whilst in neutral or with a low gea r selected. Driving too fast in indiv idua l gea rs as well as stop-a nd -g o tra ffic increases engine wear a nd fuel consumption.

Change dow n When decreasing speed, shift down into the next lowest gear. Do not slip the clutch with a high-revving engine. This is especially important when hill climb ing.

Cool ing fan The cooling fan is controlled v ia a therm oswitch and therefore only runs if nec essary .

The cooling fan a utomatica lly switches on when the diesel particle filter is being cleaned 3 depending on the engine.

Pedals Do not place any ob jects in the footwell which could slip under the ped als and inhibit the pedal travel.

To ensure the pedal travel is uninhibited, there must be no mats in the area of the pedals.

Battery ca re When driving slowly or when the vehicle is stationary , e.g. in slow urban traffic, stop-and-go traffic or traffic jams, turn off all unnecessary electrical load s w here possible (e.g. heated rear window, heated front seats, etc. ).

Depress the clutch pedal when starting in order to relieve the stra in on the starter and the battery.


Saving Fuel, Protecting the Environment Trend-setting technologyEnv ironmenta lly friendly and mainly recyclable materia ls were used when your vehic le was being developed and manufactured. The production methods used to m ake your vehicle are also env ironmenta lly -compatible.

Recycling of production wastes keeps the circulation of material closed. Reduction of energy a nd water requirements a lso help s to conserve natural resources.

A highly advanced design mea ns that your vehic le can be easily disassembled at the end of its working life, and the individual materials separated for subsequent re-use.

Materia ls such as asbestos and cadmium are not used . The refrigerant in the air conditioning system 3 is CFC-free.

New painting techniques employ water as a solvent.

End-of-li fe vehicle rec overy For detailed information on Va uxha ll’ s ongoing com mitment to ac hieving an environmentally-sustainable future, including; design for recycling, take back of End-of-Life Vehicle’s (ELVs) and the recycling of ELVs, view www.vauxhall.co.uk/recycling for details.

Energy and environm ent-c onscious driving z High noise levels and exhaust em issions

are often a result of driving w ithout due attention to saving energy and protecting the environment.

z You should therefore drive with energy in mind: "more miles – less fuel".

Reduce the noise level and exhaust emissions b y adopting an environment-consc ious driving style. This is extremely worthwhile and im proves the quality of life.

Fuel consum ption d epend s to a great extent on your own personal d riv ing style. The following hints are intended to help you consume fuel at a rate that is as close as possib le to the specified levels 3 175.

Check your vehicle’s fuel consumption every time you refuel. This facilitates early detection of any irregula rities causing increased fuel consumption.

Warm ing up z Full throttle and w arming up at idle

speed increase w ear, fuel consumption, exhaust em ission, the am ount of pollutant in the exhaust and the am ount of noise.

z Drive off imm ediately after starting. Wa rm up the engine b y running it at moderate eng ine speeds.

Uniform speed z Hectic driving significantly increases fuel

consumption, the exhaust emissions, the proportion of pollutant in the exhaust gas and the noise level.

z Do not accelerate a nd brake unnecessarily . Drive at uniform speed, watching the road.

Avoid frequent starting off and stopping e.g . at traffic lights, in short distance tra ffic and in queues of traffic by m eans of clever planning . Select road s w ith good traffic flow .

Idling z The eng ine also consumes fuel when

idling .

z If you have to wait for more than one minute, it is worthwhile switching off the engine. Five m inutes of idling corresponds to ap prox imately 0.6 miles (1 km) of driving.


Overrun z The fuel supply is automatically shut off

during overrun, e.g. when the vehicle is being driven down long gradients or when braking 3 103.

z To enable the overrun cut-off to come into action and save fuel, do not accelerate or d epress the c lutch pedal during overrun.

Corr ect gear selec tion z High revs increase engine w ear and fuel

consumption.

z Do not race your engine. Avoid d riv ing at high engine speeds.

Making use of the tachom eter helps to save fuel. Drive in a low engine speed ra nge for each gear as much a s possible with uniform engine speeds. Drive as often as possible in top gear, select the next higher gear a s soon as possible, and only chang e down when the engine is no longer running perfectly smoothly .

High speed z The higher the speed , the higher the

consumption and the noise level. At top speed, you consume a great deal of fuel and produce excessive noise and exhaust em issions.

z Slightly relea sing the accelerator ped al results in distinct fuel savings with no major loss of speed.

Drive at no more tha n around three quarters of max imum speed and you will use up to 50% less fuel, without losing a great deal of time.

Tyre pressure z Inadequate ty re p ressure, leading to

higher road resistance, costs m oney in two wa ys: for more fuel and increased tyre wear.

z Regular checks (every 14 d ays) pay off.

Electrical loa dsz The power consum ption of electrical

equip ment increa ses fuel consumption.

z Sw itch off all aux iliary electrical loads (e.g. air c onditioning 3, heated rear window) when not needed.

Roof racks z Due to air resistance, a roof load can

increase fuel consump tion by approx. 3.5 gal./1000 m iles (1l/100 km ).

z Remove them if they are not being used.

Repai r and m aintenance z Improper repairs or adjustm ent and

maintenance work can increase fuel consumption. Do not carry out w ork on the eng ine yourself.

You may out of ignorance infringe environmental law s b y not disposing of materials properly.

Appropriate parts might not b e recycled.

Contact with some of the materia ls involved may p ose a hea lth haz ard.

z We recom mend that repair and maintenance be entrusted to your Vauxhall Authorised Repairer.

Extr em e d riving conditionsz Going up steep slopes, cornering, driving

on poor road s a nd winter driving a ll increase fuel consumption.

Fuel consumption increa ses dramatically in urba n tra ffic a nd at winter temperatures, especially on short trip s when the engine operating tempera ture is not reached.

z Following the instruc tions given above will minimise consum ption under these cond itions.


Fuels, refuellingFuel c onsum ption Fuel consump tion is determined und er specific d riv ing cond itions 3 175.

Special equipment increases the weight of the vehicle. As a result, they can increase fuel consump tion and reduce the specified maximum speed.

There is increased friction betw een engine and transmission parts during the first 600 miles (1000 km). This increases fuel consump tion.

Fuel for petrol engines Only use unleaded fuel that complies with DIN EN 228.

Fuels with ethanol content greater than 5% may only be used if the vehicle has been specifically develop ed a nd approved for these fuels.

Use fuel with the recomm ended octane ra ting (value in bold 3 173). Use of fuel with too low an octane rating ca n reduce engine p ow er and torque and slightly increases fuel consum ption.

Fuel for diesel engines Diesel engines m ust be operated only on comm ercially available diesel fuel meeting the specifications of DIN EN 590.

S ince Ja nuary 2004, some oil comp anies have mixed their diesel fuel with up to 5% Bio fuel (FAME = Fatty Acid Methyl Esters) like RME (Rape-Oil Methyl Ester). This is in acc orda nce with the current DIN EN 590 and d oes not ha rm the fuel/injection system. The characteristics of a diesel fuel mixed up with 5% Bio fuel (FAME) do not differ from conventional diesel fuel and do not influence the vehicle’s driveability.

Importa nt: Diesel fuel m ixed with 5% FAM E acc ording to DIN EN 590 m ust not be confused with 100% Bio Diesel, which is not to be used in Vauxhall eng ines.

The flow and filterability of diesel fuel a re temperature-dependent.

Diesel fuels w ith improved low temp erature properties are therefore a vailable on the ma rket during the winter months. Make sure that you fill the tank with winter fuel before the start of the cold weather season.

Additives can be used with diesel fuels with winter prop erties that are guaranteed by the manufa cturer and when using diesel fuel filters that are heated depending on the outside temperature.

Diesel fuels must not be diluted with fuels that are intended for petrol eng ines.

Ca ution

Use of fuel with too low an octane rating could lead to uncontrolled com bustion and engine damag e.


Fuel fi ller cap Only a Vauxhall genuine fuel filler cap provides full functionality. Diesel-engined vehic les have special fuel filler caps.

Refuel ling

With the central locking system 3, the tank flap is unlocked together with the d oors 3 3 22.

Open the tank flap . To prevent dam age, the right-hand sliding door cannot be fully op ened if the tank flap is op en.

Unlock the fuel filler cap with the ignition key 3, unscrew and suspend from tank flap .

The fuel tank has a limiting system which prevents overfilling of the tank.

Fuel filler neck at right rear side of vehicle.

Correct filling depends to a large extent on proper operation of the fuel disp ensing pump:

1. Fully insert the pump nozz le and switch it on.

2. After the automatic cut-off, the nominal capacity of the fuel tank can be obtained by topping up with two d oses of fuel. Make sure the noz zle is fully inserted.

To c lose, place fuel filler cap in position and turn, overcom ing the resistance until the ratchet on the cap engages audibly. Lock the fuel filler cap with the ignition key 3.

C lose fuel tank cover.

9 Warning

Before refuelling, switch off engine and any externa l heaters with comb ustion chambers 3 (identified by sticker on tank flap). Switch off any m ob ile phones. Follow the opera ting and sa fety instructions of the filling station when refuelling.

9 Warning

Fuel is flam mable and explosive. No smok ing. No naked flames or spa rks.

If you can smell fuel in your vehic le, have the cause of this rectified immediately by a workshop.

Caution

Wipe off a ny overflowing fuel imm ediately.


Catalytic converter, engine exhaust Ca talytic conver ter The c atalytic converter red uces the amount of harmful substances in the exhaust ga s, such as carbon m onoxide (CO), hydrocarbons, (CH ) and nitrous oxide (NOx).

Fuel grades other than those listed on 3 106, 173 (e.g. LRP = Lead R eplacement Petrol or leaded fuel) could dama ge the catalytic converter or electronic components.

z In the event of misfiring, uneven engine running, a clear reduction in engine performa nce or other unusual problems, have the cause of the fa ult rec tified by a workshop as soon as possible. In an emergency, driving can be continued for a short period, keeping vehicle speed and engine speed low.

z If unburnt fuel enters the catalytic converter of a petrol engine, this m ay result in overheating and irrepa ra ble dam age to the catalytic converter.

You should therefore avoid unnecessarily long use of the starter when starting off, running the tank dry and starting the engine by pushing or towing.

Controlling exhaust em ission Design m easures, primarily in the fuel injection system and ignition system zones in com bina tion with the c atalytic converter, the amount of hazardous substances in the exhaust emissions, such as c arbon monoxide (CO), hydrocarbons (CH) a nd nitrogen oxides (NOx), are reduced to a minimum.

Caution

Damag e to the catalytic c onverter or the vehic le may result if the follow ing p oints are not ob served.


Exhaust ga s control indicator Z Illuminates when the ignition is switched on and during the start a ttempt. Goes off shortly after the engine starts running.

Illumination whilst the engine is running indicates a fa ult in the em ission control system. The permissible emission limits may be exceeded. Contact a workshop for assistance im med iately.

Illumination with the engine running indicates a fault that can cause da mage to the c atalytic converter. It is p ossible to continue driving without causing d amage by slowing down until the flashing stops and the control indicator illuminates. Contact a workshop for assistance immediately .

Control indicator A for engine electronic s Illum inates for a few seconds when ignition is switched on.

If it comes on when the engine is running, there is a fa ult in the engine or transmission electronics. The electronics switch to the emergency running programm e, fuel consumption may inc rease a nd the driveab ility of the vehicle may be affected.

In some cases the fault can be remedied by switching the engine off and starting it again. If the control indicator continues to illuminate whilst the engine is running, contact a workshop for assistance in remedying the cause of the fault.

If it illuminates briefly, but does not rec ur, it is of no significance.

If A illuminates, there may b e water in the diesel fuel filter 3. Ha ve the fuel filter checked for water residue by a workshop 3 166.

If it flashes after the ignition is switched on, there is a fault in the im mobiliser system. The engine c annot be started 3 19.

Engine exhaust

9 Warning

Eng ine exhaust gases contain poisonous carbon m onoxide, w hich is colourless and odourless and could be fatal if inhaled. If exhaust gases penetrate the vehicle, open windows and conta ct a workshop for assistance.

Avoid d riv ing with an open ta ilga te. Otherwise, exhaust gases could get into the interior.


Diesel p artic le fi lter 3 The d iesel pa rticle filter system filters harmful soot pa rticles out of the exha ust gases. The system includes a self-cleaning func tion that run automatically d uring driving. The filter is cleaned by b urning off the soot particles at high temperature. This process takes place automa tic ally under set driving conditions and may take up to 25 minutes. Fuel consumption may be higher during this period. The emission of smells and smoke during this p rocess is normal.

Und er certain driving conditions, e.g. short distances, the system cannot c lean itself autom atic ally.

If the filter requires cleaning and prev ious driving conditions did not enable autom atic cleaning, control indicator ! flashes. Continue driving, keep ing engine

speed above 2000 rpm-1. Shift down if necessary. Diesel particle filter cleaning is then initiated.

We recommend that you do not stop your journey or switch off the ignition during cleaning. Cleaning takes pla ce m ost quickly at high engine sp eeds and high loads.


The control indica tor ! goes off a s soon as the self-cleaning operation is complete.

Maintenance Have all maintena nce work c arried out at the specified intervals. We recomm end that you entrust this work to your Vauxhall Authorised Repairer, who ha s p roper equipment and trained personnel available. E lectronic testing systems permit ra pid diagnosis and remedy of faults. This way you can be certain that all components of the vehic le’s electrical, injection and ignition system s operate correctly, that your vehicle has a low level of polluta nt em ission and tha t the catalytic converter system will have a long serv ice life.

You are thereby mak ing an important contribution towa rd s keep ing the air clean and compliance with em issions legislation.

Check ing and adjustm ent of the fuel-injection and ignition system s is p art of the scope of inspection. For this rea son you should have all maintenance work c arried out at the intervals specified in your Service and Warranty Booklet.

Hydraulic brake system The foot brake comprises two independent brake circuits.

If a brake circuit fails, the vehicle can still be braked using the other brake circuit. However, the b ra ke p edal must be depressed a considerable way b efore any brak ing effect occ urs, and much more force is required. The braking distance is longer. Contact a w orkshop for assistance before continuing to d rive.


To ensure the full p edal travel c an be utilised, especially in c ase of a fault in one of the brake circuits, there must b e no mats in the v icinity of the pedals 3 103.

When the engine is not running, the sup port of the brake servo unit d isappears once the brake pedal has been depressed once or tw ic e. Bra king effect is not red uced, b ut b ra king requires significantly greater force. This is especially im portant to bear in mind when tow ing.

The b ra ke fluid level should be checked reg ularly . If the brake fluid level is too low and the hand brake is not ap plied, control indicator R on the instrument panel illuminates 3 66. Brake system c ontrol indic ator R

The control indica tor illuminates w hen the ignition is switc hed on if the ha ndb ra ke is applied or if the brake or clutc h fluid level is too low. Brake fluid 3 168.

For vehicles with Easytronic 3, the control indicator flashes for a few second s w hen the ignition is turned off if the handbrake i s not applied.

Anti-lock brake system (ABS u) 3 ABS prevents the wheels from loc king .

ABS starts to reg ulate brake pressure as soon a s a wheel shows a tendency to lock. The vehicle remains steera ble, even during hard b ra king .

ABS control is mad e ap parent thoug h a pulse in the brake pedal and the noise of the regulation process.

For optimum braking, keep the brake pedal fully depressed throughout the brak ing process, despite the fact that the pedal is pulsa ting. Do not reduce the pressure on the peda l.

9 Warning

If the control indicator illum inates when the handbrake is released, stop driving immed iately. Contact a workshop for assista nce.


Control indica tor u for ABSIt illuminates for a few seconds when ignition is switched on. Once the c ontrol indicator goes out, the system is read y for opera tion.

If the control indicator does not g o out after a few seconds, or if it illuminates while driving, there is a fault in the ABS. The brake system remains operational without ABS regulation.

Self test ing When the engine is started and the vehicle starts off, the system performs a self-check, whic h may be a udib le.

Fault

Have cause of fault rem edied by a workshop. The system’s integrated self diagnostics allow faults to be quick ly remedied.

Handbrake Always a pply handbrake firmly without operating the release button, and apply as firmly as possible on a downhill or uphill slope.

To release the handb ra ke p ull the lever up slightly , press the ratchet knob, and fully lower the lever.

In order to reduce the handb ra ke operational forces, depress the foot b rake at the same tim e.

9 Warning

If there is a fault in the ABS, the wheels may be liable to lock due to braking that is heav ier than normal. The advantages of ABS are no longer ava ila ble. During ha rd braking, the vehicle can no longer be steered and may swerve.


Brake assist When the brake peda l is rap idly and forcefully depressed, the vehicle is automatically braked with ma ximum b ra ke force a mplification in order to obtain the shortest possib le brak ing distance during full-on bra king (brake assist).

Maintain steady pressure on the brake pedal for as long as full-on brak ing is to continue. When the brake ped al is released, the maximum brake force amp lification is taken away.

Wheels, tyres Suitable ty res or limitations 3 179.

Tyres fitted in the factory are adapted to the chassis and provid e optimum driving comfort and sa fety.

Changing tyre/wheel typ eIf tyres of a different size than those fitted at the factory are used, it may be necessary to reprogram the electronic speedom eter and make other vehicle modifications.

After converting to a different tyre size, ha ve the adhesive label with ty re pressures replaced.

Fitting new tyr es Fit tyres in pa irs or in sets, which is even better. Ensure tha t tyres on one axle are z the same siz e, z the same design, z the same make, z and have the same tread pattern.

Fit directional tyres such that they roll in the direction of travel. The rolling direction is indicated by a symbol (e.g. an arrow) on the sidewall.

Tyres fitted opposing the rolling direction (such as when changing a ty re) should b e refitted as soon as possible. This is the only way to benefit fully from the d esign properties of the tyre.

Pay attention to legal requirements w hen disposing of ty res.

9 Warning

Use of unsuitable tyres or wheels may lead to accidents and render the vehicle unroadworthy.


Tyre pr essure Check ty re pressure at least every 14 days and prior to any long journey ; the tyres should be checked when cold. Don’t forget to chec k the spare 3.

Remove the valve ca p key from the tank flap and use it to unscrew the valve cap.

Tyre pressure 3 179, 3 180 and on the adhesive label on the inside of the tank flap.

The ty re pressure d ata is for cold tyres. It applies to both summer and w inter tyres.

Alw ays inflate the spare wheel 3 to the pressure specified for full load.

Do not reduce ty re pressure when the tyres are wa rm. Otherwise the pressure may drop b elow the perm issible minimum when the tyres cool down.

After having chec ked the tyre pressure, tig hten the va lve ca ps using the valve cap key .

Incorrect infla tion pressures will imp air safety, vehicle handling, comfort and fuel economy and will increase tyre wear.

9 Warning

If the pressure is too low , this can result in consid erable tyre warm-up and internal da mage, lea ding to tread sepa ra tion and even to tyre blow-out at high speeds.


Tyre cond ition, w heel condi tion Drive over edges slowly and at right angles if possible. Driving over sha rp edg es can cause tyre and wheel damage. Do not trap tyres on the kerb when pa rk ing.

Regula rly check the wheels for damag e. Seek the assistance of a workshop in the event of dam age or unusua l wear.

Tr ead depth Check tread depth regularly.

For reasons of safety, ty res should be replaced when their tread depth has worn down to 2 to 3 mm (winter ty res: 4 mm ).

The leg ally permissible minimum trea d depth (1.6 mm) has been reached when the tread has worn down as far as one of the wear indicators (TWI1)). A number of wear indicators are sp aced at eq ual intervals around the tyre within the trea d. Their position is indicated by m arkings on the tyre sid ewall.

If w ear in the front is greater than that in the rear, switch the front wheels with the rear ones.

Correct tyre pressure.

Tyre chains 3 Limitations 3 179.

Tyre c hains are only perm itted on the driven wheels (front a xle). They m ust be fitted to the tyres symm etrically in order to achieve a concentric fit.

Alw ays use fine mesh chains that add no more than 10 m m to the ty re tread and the inboard sides (including chain lock).

Remove the wheel trims when using tyre chains 3 130.

Tyre cha ins may only be used at sp eeds up to 30 mph (50 km/h). When tra velling on roads that are free of snow, they may only be used for brief periods.

Tyre chains must not be used on the temporary spare wheel. If you need to use tyre chains after suffering a flat front tyre, fit the temporary spa re on the rear ax le and transfer one of the rea r wheels to the front axle.

9 Warning

Use of unsuitable tyres or wheel trim s could lead to sud den loss of a ir and thereby ac cidents.

Caravan/trailer towingCara van and trailer loa ds1)

The permissible caravan/trailer loads are vehicle and eng ine-dependent m aximum values which must not be exceed ed. The actual caravan/trailer load is the difference between the actual gross weight of the caravan/trailer and the actual coupling socket load with the caravan/trailer coupled.

The permissible caravan/trailer loads are specified in the vehicle documents. In genera l, they are valid for gradients up to max. 12%.

The permitted c aravan/trailer load a pplies up to the sp ecified inc line and up to a n altitude of 1000 m etres ab ove sea level. S ince engine power decreases as altitud e increa ses b ecause of the air becoming thinner, therefore reducing climb ing ability, the permitted towing weight also decreases b y 10% for every 1000 metres of add itional altitude. The towing w eight does not have to be reduced when driv ing on roads with slig ht inclines (less than 8%, e.g. motorwa ys).

The perm issible gross train weight must not be exceeded. This weight is specified on the identification plate 3 171.

1) Obs erve national regulatio ns.


Coup ling socket loa d The c oupling socket load is the load exerted by the caravan/trailer on the coupling ball. It can b e varied by changing the w eight distribution when loa ding the carava n/trailer.

The ma ximum permissible coup ling socket load (50 kg) is specified on the towing equipm ent identification plate and in the vehic le documents. Alw ays aim for the maximum load, especia lly in the ca se of heavy caravans/trailers. The c oupling soc ket load should never fall below 25 kg.

When mea suring the coup ling socket load, make sure that the drawbar of the loa ded carava n/trailer is at the sa me height as it will be when the caravan/trailer is coupled with the towing vehicle load ed. Particularly important for caravans/trailers w ith tandem axle.

Rear axle load during tow ing The p ermissible ax le loads must not be exceeded.

Dr iving characteristi cs, towing tips In the case of caravans/trailers with brakes, attach breakaway stopping ca ble to eye.

Before a tta ching the carava n/trailer, lubricate the ball of the ca ra van/trailer tow ing devic e. H ow ever, do not lubricate the ball if a stab iliser, which acts on the coupling b all, is being used to damp hunting.

Check caravan/trailer lighting before starting to drive. The fog tail lights on the vehicle are deactivated w hen towing a caravan or trailer.

Caravans/trailers with LED turn signa ls require a p rov ision that make bulb replacem ent as with stand ard bulbs possible.

Handling is greatly influenced by the loading of the caravan/tra iler. Loads should therefore b e sec ured so that they cannot slip and be placed in the centre of the caravan/trailer if possible, i.e. ab ove the axle.

In the case of trailers with low driv ing stability, d o not exceed a speed of 50 mp h (80 km/h); the use of a friction-typ e stabiliser is hig hly recomm ended.

If the caravan/trailer starts to sway, drive more slowly , do not attem pt to correct the steering and brake sha rp ly if necessary .

If it is necessary to apply the brakes fully , depress the brake pedal a s hard as possible.

Remem ber that the braking d istance for vehicles towing carava ns/trailers with and without brake is always greater than that for vehic les not tow ing a caravan/trailer.

When driving downhill, d rive in the sa me gear as if driving uphill and d rive at a similar speed.

Adjust tyre pressure to the value specified for full load 3 115, 3 179.

Vehicle careWhen caring for your vehicle, observe all nationa l environmental regulations, particularly when washing it.

Regula r, thorough care helps to imp rove the a ppearance of your vehicle and maintain its value over the years. It is also prerequisite for warranty claim s for any paint or corrosion dam age. The following pages conta in tips for vehicle ca re which, if used properly, w ill help comb at the unavoidable damag ing effects of the env ironment.

Washing The paintwork of your vehicle is exposed to env ironmenta l influences. Wash a nd wax your vehicle regularly. When using automatic c ar washes, select a programm e that includes wax ing.

Bird droppings, dead insects, resin, pollen and the like should be cleaned off immediately , as they contain aggressive constituents which can cause paint dam age.

When using a car wa sh, follow the car-wash manufacturer’s instructions. Switch off the windscreen wiper 3. Unscrew the antenna 3 and rem ove the roof rack 3 .

If you w ash your vehicle by hand, make sure that the insides of the wing s a re also thoroughly rinsed out.

Clean edges and folds on opened doors and flaps as well as the areas they cover.

Thoroughly rinse off and leather-off the vehicle. Rinse leather frequently . Use separate leathers for paint and w indow surfaces: remnants of wax on the wind ow s will impair vision.

Pol ishing and w axing Wax the vehicle regularly (at the latest when water no longer beads). Otherwise, the paintwork will d ry out.

Polishing is necessa ry only if the paint has become dull or if solid deposits have become attached to it.

Pa intwork polish with silic one form s a protective film , ma king waxing unnec essary .

Plastic body parts should not be treated with wax a nd polish.

Wheels and tyresDo not use high-pressure jet clea ners.

Clea n wheels with a pH-neutral wheel cleaner.

Wheels are painted a nd can be treated with the same agents as the b ody.

Pa intwork dam age Rectify m inor p aintwork damage with a touch-up p en b efore rust forms. Have more extensive dam age or rust areas repaired by a workshop.

Exterior lights Headlight and other lig ht lens are ma de of plastic. Do not use any a brasive or caustic agents, do not use an ice sc ra per, and do not clean them d ry .

Plastic and rubb er parts Plastic and rubber parts can be cleaned with the same cleaner a s used to clean the body. Use interior c leaner if necessary. Do not use any other agent. Avoid solvents and p etrol in particular. Do not use high-pressure jet clea ners.

Interior and upholstery Clean the vehicle interior, including the instrument panel fascia, using interior cleaner.

The instrum ent panel is only to be cleaned with a soft, da mp cloth.

C lean the fabric upholstery with a vacuum cleaner and brush. Remove sta ins with an upholstery cleaner.

C lean seat belts with lukewa rm water or interior cleaner.

Caution

Close Velcro fasteners as open Velcro fasteners on clothing could damag e seat upholstery.


Windows and windscreen wip er b ladesUse a soft lint-free cloth or chamois leather together with window cleaner and insect rem over.

When c leaning the rear w indow, m ake sure the heating element inside the window is not damag ed.

For mechanical removal of ice, use a sha rp -edged ice scraper. Press the sc ra per firmly against the gla ss so tha t no dirt can get under it a nd scratch the glass.

Clean smearing w iper blad es with a soft cloth and window cleaner.

Locks The locks a re lubricated at the fa ctory using a high quality lock c ylinder grease. Use d e-icing agent only where absolutely necessary, as this removes g rease a nd impairs lock function. After using de-icing agent, have the locks regreased by a workshop.

Engine com partm ent Clea n painted surfa ces in the engine compartment like any other painted surface.

For best results, wa sh and w ax the engine compartment before a nd after winter. Before w ashing the engine, cover the alternator and brake fluid reservoir with plastic sheeting.

When w ashing the engine with a steam-jet cleaner, do not direc t the steam jet at components of the anti-lock brake system 3, the automatic a ir cond itioning system 3 or the belt drive and its components.

After an engine wash, have all engine room components preserved thoroughly by a workshop using protective wax.

Do not use high-pressure jet clea ners.

Underbod y Som e areas of the vehicle underbody have a PVC undercoating while other critica l areas ha ve a durable protective wax coating.

After the und erbody is w ashed, check the underbody and have more protective wax app lied if necessa ry .

Bitumen/rubber m aterials could dam age the PVC coating . Have underb od y work carried out by a workshop.

Before and after winter, w ash the underbody and have the protective wax coating checked .

Towing eq uipment Do not clean the coupling ball b ar with a steam -jet or high-pressure jet cleaner.

Extreme operat ing condit ions oOperating conditions are consid ered extreme when one or m ore of the following occur frequently :

z Cold starts,

z Stop-and-go,

z Caravan/trailer towing,

z Driv ing on inclines and/or in high altitudes,

z Poor road c onditions,

z Sand and d ust,

z Extreme temperature fluctuations.

Police vehicles, ta xis and driving school vehic les are also cla ssified as operating under extrem e c onditions.

Und er extrem e operating conditions, it may be necessa ry to have certa in serv ice work carried out more frequently than the planned service intervals.

We recommend obtaining technical a dvice for the service requirem ents of your vehicle based on the special conditions of use.

Recommended fluids and lubricants Only use products w hich have been tested and a pproved. Damag e ca used by using non-approved operating m aterials is not covered by the warranty.

9 Warning

Fuels are dangerous and require app ropriate care when handling. I f swallowed , immediately call a doctor. Do not inhale fumes and avoid c ontact with the skin. Keep out of the reach of children. Fuels m ust not be allowed to contaminate wastewater, ground water or soils. Dispose of empty containers properly . Always keep in mind that fuels are hazardous to health.


Eng ine oi lEngine oil is identified b y its grade and viscosity . When choosing which engine oil to use, g ra de is more important than viscosity .

The new eng ine oil GM-Dexos 2 is of the highest quality available at the moment. If it is una vailable, engine oils of other listed qualities have to be used.

Eng ine oi l for Service sc hedule

Top ping up engine oilOil from different manufacturers and of different brands can be mixed prov iding they m eet the spec ified eng ine oil criteria (g ra de a nd viscosity).

Not every engine oil a vailable on the market satisfies the q uality requirem ents, so alwa ys check whether the required specifications and c lassifications are written on the container.

If an engine oil of the required grad e is not available, a m aximum of 1 litre of ACEA A3/B4 or A3/B3 grade may be used (only once between eac h oil cha nge). The viscosity should be of the correct rating.

Using ca tegory ACEA A1/B1 and A5/B5 engine oil is expressly forbid den bec ause it can cause long-term d amage to the engine under certain operating conditions.

Engine oil add itivesThe use of engine oil additives ca n cause dam age and void the warranty.

Engine oil vi sc osityOnly use eng ine oils of viscosity 0W-30, 0W-40, 5W-30 or 5W-40.

The SAE v iscosity classification defines the fluidity of the oil: the oil is more viscous when cold than when hot.

Multigrade oil is indicated by two num bers. The first number followed by a W gives the viscosity at low temperature and the second number gives the viscosity at high temperature.

Inspection systemIn order to ensure economica l and safe vehic le operation a nd to maintain the value of your vehicle, it is of vital importance tha t all maintenance work is carried out at the p roper intervals as specified.

Fixed servic e interval When service is due, InSP ap pears in the odom eter display for approxima tely 10 second s w hen the ignition is switched on. Have the next service performed by a workshop within one week or 300 miles (500 km ), whichever occurs first.

The service interval display takes account of off-the-road p eriods during which the battery is d isconnected.

Flexible service interva l 3 The length of the service intervals is based on several parameters stemming from usage. For this reason, various engine-spec ific data is continually gathered and is used to calculate the remaining distance until the next serv ic e.

If the remaining dista nce is less than 1000 m iles (1500 km), InSP is displa yed with a remaining distance of than 600 m iles (1000 km ) when the ignition is switched on and off. If less than 600 miles (1000 km ) remain, InSP is displayed for severa l second s. Have the next service performed by a workshop within one week or 300 m iles (500 km), w hichever occ urs first.

Display of rema ining distance:

1. Sw itch off ignition.

2. Briefly press the trip odometer reset button. The odometer reading is shown.

3. Press and hold the reset button for about 2 seconds. InS P and the remaining distance a re displayed.

Further information on maintenance and the inspection system can be found in the Service and Warranty Booklet, which is located in the g love com partment.

Have ma intena nce work – and repair work on the body and the eq uipm ent – carried out professionally by a workshop. We recommend using your Vauxhall Authorised Repa irer, who has excellent knowledge of Vauxhall vehicles and has the necessary special tools and up-to-date service instructions from Vauxhall. It is particularly a dvisable to use a Vauxhall Authorised Repa irer during the wa rra nty period in order to p revent invalidation of the warranty . Further informa tion can be found in the Serv ice and Warranty Booklet.

Sepa rate anti-c orrosion service Carry out according to the intervals spec ified in the Service and Warranty Booklet.


Vauxhall genuine parts and accessories We recommend that you use "Vauxhall genuine parts and accessories" and conversion parts approved expressly for your vehicle type. These parts have undergone special tests to establish their reliab ility , safety and specific suitability for Vauxhall vehicles. Despite continuous market monitoring, we cannot assess or guarantee these attributes for other products, even if they have been granted approva l by the relevant authorities or in som e other form.

"Vauxhall genuine parts and accessories" and conversion parts approved by Vauxhall can be obtained from your Vauxhall Authorised Repairer, who can provide comprehensive ad vice on permitted technic al changes and ensure correct installation.

Performing work To avoid injury from moving p arts a nd cables conducting ignition volta ge, only carry out engine compartment checks (e.g. checking brake fluid or engine oil level) when the ignition is switched off.

To aid identification, the cap s used when topping up engine oil, coolant and wash fluid as w ell as the oil d ip stick are coloured yellow.

9 Warning

Only p erform engine compartment checks when the ignition is off. The cooling fan may start operating even if the ignition is off.

9 Warning

The ignition system 3 and Xenon hea dlights 3 use extremely high voltage. Do not touch.


Engine oil On vehicles w ith engine oil level check 3, the engine oil level is m onitored automatically 3 67. We recommend that you check the engine oil level before starting a long journey.

Check with the vehicle on a level surface. The engine must be at operating temperature and switched off for a t least 5 minutes.

Pull out the dipstick, wipe it clean, insert it to the stop on the handle, p ull out and read the engine oil level.

Push in the oil dipstick up to the stop on the handle and give it half a turn.

Different dipsticks are used d epend ing on eng ine variant.

When the engine oil level has dropped to the MIN mark, top up engine oil.

Caution

Imp ortant: It is the owner’s resp onsibility to maintain the correct level of an appropriate quality oil in the engine. Caution

Do not allow the engine oil to drop below the m inim um level.


We recommend that you use the sam e engine oil as was used the last tim e it w as topped up.

The engine oil level must not exceed the MAX mark on the dipstick.

The amount must be between the M IN and MAX m arks 3 182.

Fit the ca p on straight and tig hten it. Ca ution

If there is too much engine oil, the excess must b e drained or suc tioned out.


Diesel fuel filter On the event of eng ine oil change, have fuel filter checked for possible water residue by a workshop.

Illumination of A indicates wa ter in the fuel filter 3.

Have fuel filter checked at shorter intervals if the vehicle is subjected to extrem e opera ting conditions such as hig h humidity (primarily in coastal areas), extrem ely high or low outside temperatures a nd sub stantially varying daytim e a nd night-tim e temperatures.

Coolant The coola nt provides antifreeze p rotection down to approx. -28 °C.

.

Anti freeze a nd corrosion protect ionHave the concentration of the radiator contents tested by a workshop before winter starts. The amount of a ntifreeze must provide protection down to app rox . -28 °C. A lower a ntifreeze concentration will reduce the amount of protection from frost and corrosion. Add antifreeze if nec essary .

If c oolant loss is topped up with wa ter, have concentration checked a nd add antifreeze if necessary.

Ca ution

Only use approved antifreeze. Coolant additives for ad ditional corrosion protection and sealing small leaks can c ause operation problem s. No lia bility is accepted for da mage caused by using coolant additives.

9 Warning

Antifreeze is a danger to hea lth; it must therefore be kept in the orig inal container and out of the reach of children.


Coola nt level In a closed cooling system, there is hardly any loss.

When the cooling system is cold, the level of coolant should lie above the KA LT/COLD mark. Top up if the level is low.

Top up with antifreez e. I f no antifreeze is available, fill with clean tap water or distilled water. Have the antifreeze concentration checked.

Have the cause of coolant loss rectified by a workshop.

Fit the cap on straight and tighten it.

Brakes A screeching noise indicates that the brake lining is at its minimum thickness. Continued driving is possible. Have the brake lining rep la ce a s soon as possible.

Once new brake lining s a re fitted, do not brake unnecessarily hard for the first 125 m iles (200 km).

9 Warning

Allow the engine to cool before op ening the c ap. Carefully open the cap , relieving the pressure slowly.

Ca ution

Too low a coolant level can c ause engine d amage.


Brake fluid

Cha ng ing bra ke fluid Brake fluid is hygroscopic, i.e. it absorbs water. If the brakes b ecome hot, suc h as when d riv ing on long downhill stretches, vap our bubb les can form in the water, which can have an extrem ely adverse effect on braking power (depending on the proportion of w ater).

Therefore, keep to the specified change intervals.

Windscreen wiper replacement Wiper blad es on the wind sc reen Lift wiper arm. Move relea se lever and detach w ip er blad e.

Wiper blades 3 on the rear wind ow Lift wiper arm. Disengage wiper blade as show n in Fig. 9392 T and rem ove.

Fuel consumption, CO2-emissions Directive 80/1268/EEC (last c hanged by 2004/3/EC) has applied for the measurement of fuel consumption since 1996.

The direc tive is oriented to actual driving practices: Urba n driving is rated at approx. 1/3 and off-road driv ing with

approx. 2/3 (urban and extra-urban consumption). Cold sta rts a nd acceleration phases are also taken into considera tion.

The specification of CO2 emission is also a constituent of the directive.

The figures given m ust not be taken as a guarantee for the actual fuel consumption of a p artic ular vehicle.

All va lues stem from the EU b ase model with standard equipment.

The calculation of fuel consumption as spec ified by directive 2004/3/EC takes acc ount of the vehicle’s kerbweight, ascertained in accordance with the said regula tion. Optional extras may result in slightly higher fuel consumption and CO2 emission levels than those quoted.

To convert l/100 km into mpg, divide 282 by the number of litres/100 km.
