The airbag label is located on both sides of the front passenger sun visor. Airbag deactivation 3 62.

Front airbag system The front airbag system consists of one airbag in the steering wheel and one in the roof on the front passenger side. These can be identified by the word AIRBAG. The front airbag system is triggered in the event of a front-end impact of a certain severity. The ignition must be switched on.

The inflated airbags cushion the impact, thereby reducing the risk of injury to the upper body and head of the front seat occupants considerably.

9 Warning

Optimum protection is only provided when the seat is in the proper position. Seat position 3 45. Keep the area in which the airbag inflates clear of obstructions. Fit the seat belt correctly and engage securely. Only then is the airbag able to protect.

Side airbag system

Seats, restraints 61

The side airbag system consists of an airbag in each front seat backrest. This can be identified by the word AIRBAG. The side airbag system is triggered in the event of a side impact of a certain severity. The ignition must be switched on.

The inflated airbags cushion the impact, thereby reducing the risk of injury to the upper body and pelvis in the event of a side-on collision considerably.

9 Warning

Keep the area in which the airbag inflates clear of obstructions.

Notice Only use protective seat covers that have been approved for the vehicle. Be careful not to cover the airbags.

Curtain airbag system The curtain airbag system consists of an airbag in the roof frame on each side. This can be identified by the word AIRBAG on the roof pillars. The curtain airbag system is triggered in the event of a side-on impact of a certain severity. The ignition must be switched on.

The inflated airbags cushion the impact, thereby reducing the risk of injury to the head in the event of a side-on impact considerably.

9 Warning

Keep the area in which the airbag inflates clear of obstructions. The hooks on the handles in the roof frame are only suitable for hanging up light articles of clothing, without coat hangers. Do not keep any items in these clothes.

62 Seats, restraints

Airbag deactivation The front passenger airbag system must be deactivated for child restraint system on the passenger seat according to the instructions in the table 3 66. The side airbag and curtain airbag systems, the belt pretensioners and all driver airbag systems will remain active.

The front passenger airbag system can be deactivated via a key- operated switch on the passenger side of the instrument panel.

Use the ignition key to choose the position: OFF* : front passenger airbag is

deactivated and will not inflate in the event of a collision, control indicator OFF* illuminates continuously in the centre console

ON : front passenger airbag is active

9 Danger

Deactivate passenger airbag only in combination with the use of a child restraint system, subject to the instructions and restrictions in the table 3 66. Otherwise, there is a risk of fatal injury for a person occupying a seat with a deactivated front passenger airbag.

If the control indicator illuminates for approx. 60 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the front passenger airbag system will inflate in the event of a collision. If the control indicator * illuminates after the ignition is switched on, the front passenger airbag system is deactivated. It stays on while the airbag is deactivated. If both control indicators are illuminated at the same time, there is a system failure. The status of the system is not discernible, therefore no person is allowed to occupy the front passenger seat. Contact a workshop immediately.

Seats, restraints 63

Consult a workshop immediately if neither of the two control indicators are illuminated. In the event of a fault a warning message is displayed in the Driver Information Centre and warning chime will sound. Change status only when the vehicle is stopped with the ignition off. Status remains until the next change. Control indicator for airbag deactivation 3 102.

Driving with a roof load increases the sensitivity of the vehicle to cross-winds and has a detrimental effect on vehicle handling due to the vehicle's higher centre of gravity. Distribute the load evenly and secure it properly with retaining straps. Adjust the tyre pressure and vehicle speed according to the load conditions. Check and retighten the straps frequently. Do not drive faster than 75 mph. The permissible roof load is:

80 kg for vehicles with roof railing

100 kg for vehicles without roof railing and with two roof racks

In countries with extreme low temperatures it may be necessary to park the vehicle without applied parking brake. Make sure to park the vehicle on a level surface.

Driving and operating 151

Engine exhaust

9 Danger

Engine exhaust gases contain poisonous carbon monoxide, which is colourless and odourless and could be fatal if inhaled. If exhaust gases enter the interior of the vehicle, open the windows. Have the cause of the fault rectified by a workshop. Avoid driving with an open load compartment, otherwise exhaust gases could enter the vehicle.

Exhaust filter Automatic cleaning process The exhaust filter system filters soot particles out of the exhaust gases. The start of saturation of the exhaust filter is indicated by the temporary illumination of % or C, accompanied by a message in the Driver Information Centre.

As soon as the traffic conditions permit, regenerate the filter by driving at a vehicle speed of at least 40 mph until the control indicator extinguishes. Notice On a new vehicle, the first exhaust filter regeneration operations may be accompanied by a burning smell, which is normal. Following prolonged operation of the vehicle at very low speed or at idle, water vapour can be emitted at the exhaust on acceleration. This does not affect the behaviour of the vehicle or the environment.

Cleaning process not possible If % or C stays on, accompanied by an audible signal and a message, this indicates that the exhaust filter additive level is too low. The reservoir must be topped-up without delay. Seek the assistance of a workshop.

Catalytic converter The catalytic converter reduces the amount of harmful substances in the exhaust gases.

Caution

Fuel grades other than those listed on pages 3 202, 3 260 could damage the catalytic converter or electronic components. Unburnt petrol will overheat and damage the catalytic converter. Therefore avoid excessive use of the starter, running the fuel tank dry and starting the engine by pushing or towing.

In the event of misfiring, uneven engine running, a reduction in engine performance or other unusual problems, have the cause of the fault rectified 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.

152 Driving and operating

AdBlue General information The selective catalytic reduction (BlueInjection) is a method to substantially reduce the nitrogen oxides in the exhaust emission. This is achieved by injecting a Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) into the exhaust system. The ammonia released by the fluid reacts with nitrous gases (NOx) from the exhaust and turns it into nitrogen and water. The designation of this fluid is AdBlue. It is a non-toxic, non- flammable, colourless and odourless fluid which consists of 32% urea and 68% water.

9 Warning

Avoid contact of your eyes or skin with AdBlue. In case of eye or skin contact, rinse off with water.

Caution

Avoid contact of the paintwork with AdBlue. In case of contact, rinse off with water.

AdBlue freezes at a temperature of approx. -11 C. As the vehicle is equipped with an AdBlue preheater, the emissions reduction at low temperatures is ensured. The AdBlue preheater works automatically. Notice Frozen and again liquefied AdBlue is usable without quality loss.

The typical AdBlue consumption is approx. 0.85 l per 600 miles, but can also be higher depending on driving behaviour (e.g. high load or towing).

Level warnings Depending on the calculated range of AdBlue, different messages are displayed in the Driver Information Centre. The messages and the restrictions are a legal requirement.

1. The first possible warning is Top up emissions additive: Starting prevented in 1500 mi. When switching on the ignition, this warning will show up once briefly with the calculated range. Additionally, control indicator u will illuminate and a chime will sound. Driving is possible without any restrictions.

2. The next warning level is entered with a range below 500 miles. The message with the current range will always be displayed when ignition is switched on. Additionally, control indicator u will illuminate and a chime will sound. Refill AdBlue before entering the next warning level. When driving, the chime sounds and the message is displayed every 60 miles until the additive tank has been topped-up.

3. The next warning level is entered with a range below 60 miles. The message with the current range will always be displayed when ignition is switched on.

Driving and operating 153

Additionally, control indicator u will flash and a chime will sound. Refill AdBlue as soon as possible before the AdBlue tank is completely empty. Otherwise, a restart of the engine will not be possible. When driving, the chime sounds and the message is displayed every 6 miles until the additive tank has been topped-up.

4. The last warning level is entered when the AdBlue tank is empty. Restart of the engine is not possible. The following warning message will be displayed: Top up emissions additive: Starting prevented Additionally, control indicator u will flash and a chime will sound. Refill the tank to a level of at least 5 l of AdBlue, otherwise restarting of the engine is not possible.

Notice For D16DT engines, different levels apply.

High emission warnings In the event of a fault with the emissions control system, different messages are displayed in the Driver Information Centre. The messages and the restrictions are a legal requirement. 1. If a fault is detected for the first

time, the warning Emissions fault is displayed. Additionally, control indicators u, R and Z will illuminate and a chime will sound. Driving is possible without any restrictions. If it is a temporary fault, the alert disappears during the next journey, after self-diagnosis of the emissions control system.

2. If the fault is confirmed by the emission control system, the following message will be displayed: Emissions fault: Starting prevented in 650 miles. Additionally, control indicators u, C and Z will illuminate and a chime will sound.

When driving, the message is displayed every 30 s while the fault persists.

3. If the last warning level is entered, the following warning message will be displayed: Emissions fault: Starting prevented Additionally, control indicators u, C and Z will illuminate and a chime will sound. Consult a workshop for assistance.

Refilling AdBlue

Caution

Only use AdBlue that complies with European standards DIN 70 070 and ISO 22241-1. Do not use additives. Do not dilute AdBlue. Otherwise the selective catalytic reduction system could be damaged.

154 Driving and operating

Notice Whenever a filling pump with a nozzle for passenger cars is not available at a filling station, use only AdBlue bottles or canisters with a sealed refill adapter for refilling, to prevent splashback and overspill, and in order to ensure that the fumes from the tank are captured and do not emerge. AdBlue in bottles or canisters is available in many filling stations and can be purchased e.g. at Vauxhall dealers and other retail outlets. Since AdBlue has a limited durability, check the date of expiry before refilling. Notice Refill the tank to a level of at least 5 l to ensure that the new AdBlue level is being detected. In case AdBlue refill is not successfully detected:

1. Continuously drive the vehicle for 10 min making sure that vehicle speed is always higher than 12 mph.

2. If AdBlue refill is detected successfully, AdBlue supply- driven warnings or limitations will disappear.

If AdBlue refill is still not detected, seek the assistance of a workshop. If AdBlue must be refilled at temperatures below -11 C, the refilling of AdBlue may not be detected by the system. In this event, park the vehicle in a space with a higher ambient temperature until AdBlue is liquified. Notice When unscrewing the protective cap from the filler neck, ammonia fumes may emerge. Do not inhale as the fumes have a pungent smell. The fumes are not harmful by inhalation.

The AdBlue tank should be filled completely. This must be done if the warning message regarding prevention of an engine restart is already displayed.

The vehicle must be parked on a level surface. The filler neck for AdBlue is located behind the fuel filler flap, which is located at left rear side of the vehicle. If the vehicle is equipped with an electronic key system, the fuel filler flap can only be opened if the vehicle is unlocked. 1. Remove key from ignition switch. 2. Close all doors to avoid ammonia

fumes entering the interior of the vehicle.

3. Release the fuel filler flap by pushing the flap 3 204.

Gear shift indication 3 104. Stop-start system 3 147.

Brakes The brake system comprises two independent brake circuits. If a brake circuit fails, the vehicle can still be braked using the other brake circuit. However, braking effect is achieved only when the brake pedal is depressed firmly. Considerably more force is needed for this. The braking distance is extended. Seek the assistance of a workshop before continuing the journey. When the engine is not running, the support of the brake servo unit disappears once the brake pedal has been depressed once or twice. Braking effect is not reduced, but braking requires significantly greater force. It is especially important to bear this in mind when being towed. Control indicator m 3 103.

Antilock brake system Antilock brake system (ABS) prevents the wheels from locking.

ABS starts to regulate brake pressure as soon as a wheel shows a tendency to lock. The vehicle remains steerable, even during hard braking. ABS control is made apparent through a pulse in the brake pedal and the noise of the regulation process. For optimum braking, keep the brake pedal fully depressed throughout the braking process, despite the fact that the pedal is pulsating. Do not reduce the pressure on the pedal. When braking in an emergency, the hazard warning flashers are switched on automatically depending on the force of deceleration. They are switched off automatically the first time you accelerate. After starting off, the system performs a self-test which may be audible.

Control indicator u 3 104.

Control indicator j flashes: electric parking brake is not fully applied or released. When continuously flashing, release electric parking brake and retry applying.

Brake assist If brake pedal is depressed quickly and forcefully, maximum brake force is automatically applied. Operation of brake assist might become apparent by a pulse in the brake pedal and a greater resistance when depressing the brake pedal. Maintain steady pressure on the brake pedal as long as full braking is required. Maximum brake force is automatically reduced when brake pedal is released.

Hill start assist The system helps prevent unintended movement when driving away on inclines. When releasing the brake pedal after stopping on an incline, brakes remain on for further 2s. The brakes release automatically as soon as the vehicle begins to accelerate.

Driving and operating 163

Ride control systems Electronic Stability Control and Traction Control system Electronic Stability Control (ESC) improves driving stability when necessary, regardless of the type of road surface or tyre grip. As soon as the vehicle starts to swerve (understeer / oversteer), engine output is reduced and the wheels are braked individually. ESC operates in combination with the Traction Control system (TC). It prevents the driven wheels from spinning. The TC is a component of the ESC. Traction Control improves driving stability when necessary, regardless of the type of road surface or tyre grip, by preventing the driven wheels from spinning. As soon as the driven wheels starts to spin, engine output is reduced and the wheel spinning the most is braked

individually. This considerably improves the driving stability of the vehicle on slippery road surfaces.

ESC and TC are operational after each engine start as soon as the control indicator b extinguishes. When ESC and TC operate, b flashes.

Descent control system The descent control system allows the vehicle to travel at a low speed without depressing the brake pedal. The vehicle will automatically decelerate to a low speed and remain at that speed when the system is activated. Some noise or vibration from the brake system may be apparent when the system is active.

Caution

Use only when descending steep grades while driving off-road. Do not use when driving on normal

road surfaces. Unnecessary usage of the DCS function, such as while driving on normal roads, may damage the brake system and the ESC function.

changes to grey. However, the LED of the button is still illuminated. Regulation is automatically resumed if the speed falls below 18 mph, the slope is greater than 5% and the pedal release conditions are met.

Deactivation Press again until the LED in the button extinguishes. The green control indicator u in the instrument cluster extinguishes, too. Depressing the foot brake or accelerator will also cause the system to be deactivated. If the speed exceeds 43 mph, the system is automatically deactivated. The LED in the button estinguishes.

Fault If the green control indicator does not illuminate or flash after pressing the button, there is a fault in the system. Seek the assistance of a workshop.

Selective ride control

Caution

The vehicle is designed to drive principally on-road, but it also enables driving off-road occasionally. However, do not drive on terrain where the vehicle could be damaged due to obstacles, such as rocks among others and on terrain with steep inclines and poor grip. Do not cross waters.

Caution

When driving off-road, sudden motion and manoeuvres can cause a collision or losing control.

Selective ride control is designed to optimise traction in low-grip conditions (snow, mud and sand).

It adapts to the terrain by acting on the front wheels, in doing so this saves the weight normally associated with a more conventional four wheel drive system.

Selective ride control allows to choose between five driving modes: ESC off mode 9 standard mode 2 snow mode 3 mud mode 4 sand mode 1

The several modes can be activated by turning the control.

166 Driving and operating

A LED illuminates and a status message appears in the Driver Information Centre to confirm the chosen mode.

ESC off mode 9 The ESC and Traction Control are deactivated in this mode. An LED in the button a illuminates. ESC and Traction Control are reactivated automatically from 30 mph or everytime the ignition is switched on.

Standard mode 2 This mode is calibrated for a low level of wheel spin, based on the different types of grip generally encountered in normal day to day driving. Everytime the ignition is switched off, the system is automatically reset to this mode.

Snow mode 3 This mode adapts to the grip conditions encountered by each wheel when starting.

When advancing, the system optimises wheel spin to guarantee the best acceleration based on the available traction. Recommended in cases of deep snow and steep inclines. This mode is active up to a speed of 30 mph.

Mud mode 4 This mode allows considerable wheel spin at start-up for the wheel with the least grip, this removes mud and re- establishes traction. Simultaneously, the wheel with the most grip is provided with the most torque possible. This mode is active up to a speed of 50 mph.

Sand mode 1 This mode allows a small amount of simultaneous wheel spin on the two drive wheels, enabling the vehicle to advance and reduce the risk of sinking. This mode is active up to a speed of 75 mph.

Caution

Do not use the other modes on sand as the vehicle may become stuck.

Adaptive cruise control The adaptive cruise control is an enhancement to the conventional cruise control with the additional feature of maintaining a certain following distance to the vehicle ahead. It uses a camera at the top of

172 Driving and operating

the windscreen and camera sensors to detect the vehicles ahead. If no vehicle is detected in the driving path, the adaptive cruise control will behave like a conventional cruise control. The adaptive cruise control automatically decelerates the vehicle when approaching a slower moving vehicle. It then adjusts the vehicle speed to follow the vehicle ahead at the selected following distance. The vehicle speed increases or decreases to follow the vehicle ahead, but will not exceed the set speed. It may apply limited braking with activated brake lights. If the vehicle ahead accelerates or changes lane, the adaptive cruise control progressively accelerates the vehicle to return to the stored set speed. If the driver operates the turn lights to overtake a slower vehicle, the adaptive cruise control allows the vehicle to temporarily approach the vehicle ahead to help passing it. However, the set speed will never be exceeded.

The adaptive cruise control can store set speeds for manual transmission. If the vehicle ahead is moving too slowly and the selected following distance cannot be maintained anymore, a warning chime is given and a message is displayed in the Driver Information Centre. The message prompts the driver to take back control of the vehicle. On vehicles with automatic transmission, the system can brake the vehicle until a full stop. The adaptive cruise control can store set speeds over 19 mph for manual transmission. If the vehicle ahead is moving too slowly and the selected following distance cannot be maintained anymore, a warning chime is given and a message is displayed in the Driver Information Centre. The message prompts the driver to take back control of the vehicle. On vehicles with automatic transmission, the system can brake the vehicle until a full stop.

9 Warning

The complete driver attention is always required while driving with adaptive cruise control. The driver stays fully in control of the vehicle because the brake pedal, the accelerator pedal and the button have priority over any adaptive cruise control operation.

Switching on the system

Press C, the symbolC is indicated in the Driver Information Centre. The system is still not active.

Resuming stored speed Move the thumb wheel to RES/+ at a speed above 19 mph. The adaptive cruise control is activated with the stored set speed.

Taking over the speed limit from the traffic sign assistant The intelligent speed adaptation informs the driver when a speed limit is detected by the traffic sign assistant. The detected speed limit can be taken over as new set speed for the adaptive cruise control. With the camera at the top of the windscreen, this system detects and reads speed limit and end of speed limit signs. The system also takes account of information on speed limits from the navigation map data. The function can be activated or deactivated in the personalisation menu 3 115. If the adaptive cruise control is active, the recognised speed limit will be displayed in the Driver Information Centre and MEM illuminates.

In the Driver Information Centre, speed limit sign is shown in the display and MEM illuminates for a few seconds. Press MEM on the steering wheel to request saving of the suggested speed. Press MEM on the steering wheel once more to confirm and save the new speed setting. This speed limit is now the new set speed of the adaptive cruise control.

Adaptive cruise control on vehicles with automatic transmission For vehicles with automatic transmission, adaptive cruise control allows to maintain the selected distance behind a stopping vehicle until a complete stop is reached. If the system has stopped your vehicle behind another vehicle, then the set speed is replaced by a green control indicator .. This symbol notifies, that the vehicle is hold automatically in stop position.

If the stopped vehicle ahead was stopped for a longer time and then begins to move forward, the green illuminated vehicle ahead control indicator . will flash and a warning chime will sound as a reminder to check traffic before resuming. When the vehicle ahead drives away, press the accelerator pedal until 19 mph and then move the thumb wheel to SET- or RES+ to resume adaptive cruise control. If the vehicle stays stopped for more than five minutes or if the driver's door is opened and the driver's seat belt is unfastened, then the electric parking brake is applied automatically to hold the vehicle. Control indicator m will illuminate. To release electric parking brake, press the accelerator pedal. Electric parking brake 3 160.

Pressing to activate the speed limiter deactivates adaptive cruise control. Switching off the ignition deletes the stored set speed.

Driver's attention Use the adaptive cruise control

carefully on bends or mountain roads, as it can lose the vehicle ahead and needs time to detect it again.

Do not use the system on slippery roads as it can create rapid changes in tyre traction (wheel spinning), so that you could lose control of the vehicle.

Do not use the system when the spare wheel is in use.

System limits

9 Warning

The system's automatic brake force does not permit hard braking and the braking level may not be sufficient to avoid a collision.

After a sudden lane change, the system needs a certain time to detect the next preceding vehicle. So if a new vehicle is detected, the system may accelerate instead of braking.

The adaptive cruise control does ignore the oncoming traffic.

The adaptive cruise control does not consider pedestrians and animals for braking and driving off.

The adaptive cruise control considers stopped vehicles only at low speed.

Do not use the adaptive cruise control when towing a trailer.

Do not use the adaptive cruise control on roads with an incline of more than 10%.

Bends

The adaptive cruise control calculates a predicted path based on the centrifugal force. This predicted path considers the current bend characteristic, but cannot consider a future bend change. The system may lose the current vehicle ahead or consider a vehicle which is not in the actual lane. This can happen when entering or exiting a bend or if the bend gets stronger or weaker. If it no

Driving and operating 177

longer detects any vehicle ahead, then control indicator A will extinguish. If the centrifugal force is too high in a bend, the system slows down the vehicle slightly. This braking level is not designed to avoid spinning-off the bend. The driver is responsible for reducing the selected speed before entering a bend and in general to adapt the speed to the road type and to existing speed limits.

Motorways On motorways, adapt the set speed to the situation and the weather. Always consider that adaptive cruise control has a limited visibility range, a limited braking level and a certain reaction time to verify if a vehicle is on the driving path or not. Adaptive cruise control may not be able to brake the vehicle in time to avoid a

collision with a much slower vehicle or after a lane change. This is particularly true while driving fast or if the visibility is reduced due to weather conditions. While entering or exiting a motorway, adaptive cruise control may lose the vehicle ahead and accelerate up to the set speed. For this reason, decrease the set speed before the exit or before the entry.

Vehicle path changes

If another vehicle enters your driving path, adaptive cruise control will first consider the vehicle when it is completely in your path. Be ready to take action and depress the brake pedal, if you need to brake more quickly.

Hill considerations

9 Warning

Do not use the adaptive cruise control on steep hill roads.

System performance on hills depends on vehicle speed, vehicle load, traffic conditions and the road incline. It may not detect a vehicle in your path while driving on hills. On steep hills, you may have to use the accelerator pedal to maintain your vehicle speed. When going downhill you may have to brake to maintain or reduce your speed. Note that applying the brake deactivates the system.

178 Driving and operating

Fault In the event of a fault with the adaptive cruise control, you are alerted by the illumination of a warning light and the display of a message in the instrument panel, accompanied by an audible signal. The adaptive cruise control may not operate correctly if traffic signs do not comply with the Vienna Convention on Road Signs and Signals. Have the system checked by a dealer or a qualified workshop. As a safety measure, do not use the system if the brake lights are faulty.

Forward collision alert The forward collision alert may help to avoid or reduce the harm caused by front-end crashes. The forward collision alert uses the front camera in the windscreen to detect a preceding vehicle directly ahead, in your path.

If a vehicle directly ahead is approached too quickly, a warning chime and alert in the Driver Information Centre is provided.

9 Warning

Forward collision alert is just a warning system and does not apply the brakes. When approaching a vehicle ahead too rapidly, it may not provide you enough time to avoid a collision. The driver accepts full responsibility for the appropriate following distance based on traffic, weather and visibility conditions. The complete attention of the driver is always required while driving. The driver must always be ready to take action and apply the brakes.

Activation Forward collision alert detects vehicles and operates automatically at all speeds above 3 mph and 53 mph. The system detects stationary vehicles if the speed does not exceed 50 mph.

Alerting the driver The driver is warned by following alerts: Symbol , illuminates and a

warning message is displayed in the Driver Information Centre when the distance to the vehicle ahead gets to small.

Symbol , illuminates, a warning message is displayed in the Driver Information Centre and a warning chime sounds, when a collision is imminent and immediate driver's action is required.

The driver accepts full responsibility for the appropriate following distance based on traffic, weather and visibility conditions. The complete attention of the driver is always required while driving. The driver must always be ready to take action and apply the brakes.

Caution

The colour lighting of this control indicator does not correspond to local traffic laws on following distance. The driver bears full responsibility for maintaining safe following distance according to

applicable traffic rules, weather and road conditions etc. at all times.

Selecting the alert sensitivity The alert sensitivity has to be set to close, normal or distant in the vehicle personalisation menu 3 115. The chosen setting will remain until it is changed. The alert timing will vary based on vehicle speed. The faster the vehicle speed, the farther away the alert will occur. Consider traffic and weather conditions when selecting the alert timing.

Deactivation The system can only be deactivated by deactivating the active emergency braking in the vehicle personalisation 3 115.

System limitations Forward collision alert is designed to warn on vehicles only, but may react also to other objects.

In the following cases, forward collision alert may not detect a vehicle ahead or sensor performance is limited: driving on winding or hilly roads driving during nighttime weather limits visibility, such as

fog, rain, or snow the sensor in the windscreen is

blocked by snow, ice, slush, mud, dirt etc.

the windscreen is damaged or affected by foreign objects, e.g. stickers

Active emergency braking Active emergency braking can help to reduce the damage and injury from crashes with vehicles, pedestrians and obstacles directly ahead, when a collision can no longer be avoided either by manual braking or by steering. Before the active emergency braking applies, the driver is warned by the forward collision alert or the front pedestrian protection alert.

180 Driving and operating

Forward collision alert 3 178 Front pedestrian protection 3 182 The feature uses various inputs (e.g. camera sensor, brake pressure, vehicle speed) to calculate the probability of a frontal collision.

9 Warning

This system is not intended to replace the driver responsibility for driving the vehicle and looking ahead. Its function is limited to supplemental use only to reduce the vehicle speed before a collision. The system may not react to animals. After a sudden lane change, the system needs a certain time to detect the next preceding vehicle. The driver must always be ready to take action and apply the brakes and steer to avoid collisions.

Functionality Active emergency braking is equipped with a front camera and operates in forward gear in the range between walking speed and 53 mph. The system detects stationary vehicles only if the speed does not exceed 50 mph. A precondition is that active emergency braking is not deactivated in the vehicle personalisation menu 3 115. If deactivated, m illuminates in the instrument cluster and a warning message is displayed in the Driver Information Centre If the system has been deactivated manually, it is reactivated automatically the next time the ignition is switched on. The system includes: emergency automatic braking forward collision alert front pedestrian protection

Emergency automatic braking After activation of brake preparation system and just before the imminent collision, this function automatically applies limited braking to reduce the impact speed of the collision or prohibit a crash. If active emergency braking is applied, m flashes in the instrument cluster. Depending on the situation, the vehicle may automatically brake moderately or hard. Front automatic braking can only occur if a vehicle or a pedestrian ahead is detected. Forward collision alert 3 178 Front pedestrian protection 3 182 Below a speed of 19 mph, emergency automatic braking may slow down the vehicle to a complete stop. If the speed exceeds 19 mph, emergency automatic braking reduces the speed. However, the driver must apply the brake.

Driving and operating 181

Emergency automatic braking may slow the vehicle to a complete stop to try to avoid a potential crash. Automatic transmission: If the

vehicle comes to a complete stop, automatic braking is maintained for up to two seconds. Keep the brake pedal depressed to prevent the vehicle from starting off again.

Manual transmission: If the vehicle comes to a complete stop, the engine may stall.

Operation of the function may be felt by a slight vibration in the brake pedal.

9 Warning

Emergency automatic braking is an emergency crash preparation feature and is not designed to avoid crashes. Do not rely on the system to brake the vehicle. Emergency automatic braking will not brake outside of its operating speed range and only responds to detected vehicles and pedestrians.

System limitations In some cases, the active emergency braking system may provide an automatic braking in situations that seem to be unnecessary, for instance in parking garages, due to traffic signs in a curve or due to vehicles in another lane. This is normal operation, the vehicle does not need service. Firmly apply the accelerator pedal to override the automatic braking if the situation and the surroundings permit. In the following cases, active emergency braking performance is limited: driving on winding or hilly roads detecting all vehicles, especially

vehicles with a trailer, tractors, muddy vehicles, etc.

If the system does not work as it should do, vehicle messages are displayed in the Driver Information Centre. Vehicle messages 3 114.

Front pedestrian protection Front pedestrian protection may help to avoid or reduce the harm caused by front-end crashes with pedestrians when driving forward. The system uses the front camera in the windscreen to detect a pedestrian directly ahead in your path. Front pedestrian protection can detect and alert to pedestrians in a forward gear at speeds between 3 mph and 37 mph. During nighttime driving, system performance is limited.

9 Danger

Front pedestrian braking does not provide an alert or automatically brake the vehicle, unless it detects a pedestrian. The system may not detect pedestrians, including children, when the pedestrian is not directly ahead, not fully visible, not standing upright, or when part of a group.

Front pedestrian protection includes: detecting front pedestrian ahead front pedestrian alert

Front pedestrian protection is activated together with forward collision alert. Forward collision alert 3 178.

The system is operational at vehicle speeds between 40 mph and 112 mph and if lane markings are detectable. The driver must hold the steering wheel with both hands. The Electronic Stability Control system must be activated. The control indicator a flashes yellow during trajectory correction.

If the driver wishes to maintain the trajectory of the vehicle, he can prevent the correction by keeping a firm grip on the steering wheel, e.g. during an avoiding manoeuvre. The correction is interrupted if the turn lights are operated. There is no correction triggered when the turn lights are operated and during a few seconds after turn lights have been switched off. If the system detects that the driver is not holding the steering wheel firmly enough during an automatic correction of trajectory, it interrupts the correction. A warning message in the Driver Information Centre accompanied by a warning chime alerts the driver when immediate drivers action is required. If the side blind spot alert is activated and the driver is about to change the lane, the system corrects the trajectory of the vehicle despite the activation of the turn lights if another vehicle is detected in the side blind spot zone.

200 Driving and operating

Deactivation To deactivate the system, press and hold . Deactivation of the system is confirmed by the illuminated LED in the button. In the Driver Information Centre solid grey lines are displayed.

Recommended deactivation It is recommended to deactivate the system in the following situations: Road surface in poor condition Unfavourable climatic conditions Slippery surfaces, e.g., ice

The system is not designed for driving in the following situations: Driving on a speed circuit Driving with a trailer Driving on a rolling stand Driving on unstable surfaces

Fault In the event of a fault, a and C appear in the instrument panel, accompanied by a display message and a warning chime. Contact a dealer or a qualified workshop to have the system checked.

System limitations The system performance may be affected by: windscreen not clean or affected

by foreign objects, e.g. stickers close vehicles ahead banked roads narrow, winding or hilly roads road edges sudden lighting changes adverse environmental

conditions, e.g. heavy rain or snow

vehicle modifications, e.g. tyres

Switch off the system if the system is disturbed by tar marks, shadows, road cracks, temporary or construction lane markings, or other road imperfections.

9 Warning

Always keep your attention on the road and maintain proper vehicle position within the lane, otherwise vehicle damage, injury or death could occur. Lane keep assist does not continuously steer the vehicle. The system may not keep the vehicle in the lane or give an alert, even if a lane marking is detected. The steering of the lane keep assist may not be sufficient to avoid a lane departure. The system may not detect hands- off driving due to external influences like road condition and surface and weather. The driver has full responsibility to control the

Driving and operating 201

vehicle and is always required to keep the hands on the steering wheel while driving. Using the system while towing a trailer or on slippery roads could cause loss of control of the vehicle and a crash. Switch the system off.

Driver alert The driver alert system monitores the driving time and the vigilance of the driver. Monitoring the vigilance of the driver is based on the trajectory variations of the vehicle compared to the lane markings.

9 Warning

The system cannot replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver. Taking a break is recommended as soon as feeling tired or at least every two hours. Do not take the steering wheel when feeling tired.

Activation or Deactivation The system can be activated or deactivated in the vehicle personalisation 3 115. The state of the system stays in memory when the ignition is switched off.

Driving time alert The driver gets notified by a pop-up reminder symbol in the Driver Information Centre simultaneously with an acoustic alert if the driver has not taken a break after 2 hours of driving at a speed above 40 mph. The alert is repeated hourly until the vehicle is stopped, no matter how vehicle speed evolves.

The counting of driving time alert is reset if one of the following conditions is met: The vehicle has been stationary

for more than 15 minutes with the engine running.

The ignition has been switched off for a few minutes.

The driver's seat belt has been unfastened and the driver's door is open.

Notice If the vehicle speed drops below 40 mph, the system is paused. The driving time is counted again once the speed is above 40 mph.

Driver drowsiness detection The system monitors the driver's level of vigilance. A camera at the top of the windscreen detects variations in trajectory compared to the lane markings. This system is particularly suited to fast roads (speed higher than 40 mph). If the trajectory of the vehicle suggests a certain level of drowsiness or inattention by the

202 Driving and operating

driver, the system triggers the first level of alert. The driver is notified by a message and an audible signal is given. After three first level alerts, the system triggers a new alert with a message, accompanied by a more pronounced audible signal. In certain driving conditions (poor road surface or strong winds), the system may give alerts independent of the driver's level of vigilance. The driver drowsiness detection is reinitialised when the ignition has been switched off for a few minutes or the speed remains below 40 mph for a few minutes.

System limitations In the following situations, the system may not operate properly or even not operate at all: poor visibility caused by

inadequate lighting of the roadway, falling snow, heavy rain, dense fog etc.

dazzle caused by headlights of oncoming vehicles, low sun, reflections on damp roads, leaving a tunnel, alternating shade and light etc.

windscreen area in front of the camera covered by dirt, snow, stickers etc.

no lane markings detected or multiple lane markings due to roadworks

close vehicles ahead winding roads or narrow roads

Fuel Fuel for petrol engines The petrol engines are compatible with bio-fuels that conform to current and future European standards and and can be obtained from filling stations:

Petrol that meets the EN228 standard, mixed with a biofuel meeting the EN15376 standard. Use fuel with the recommended octane rating. A lower octane rating can reduce engine power and torque and slightly increases fuel consumption.

Driving and operating 203

Caution

Do not use fuel or fuel additives that contain metallic compounds such as manganese-based additives. This may cause engine damage.

Caution

Use of fuel with a lower octane rating than the lowest possible rating could lead to uncontrolled combustion and engine damage.

The engine specific requirements regarding octane rating are given in the engine data overview 3 260. A country-specific label at the fuel filler flap can supersede the requirement. In certain countries, the use of a particular fuel, e.g. a specific octane rating, may be required to ensure proper engine operation.

Fuel for diesel engines The diesel engines are compatible with bio-fuels that conform to current and future European standards and and can be obtained from filling stations:

Diesel fuel that meets standard EN590 mixed with a biofuel that meets standard EN14214 (possibly containing up to 7 % Fatty Acid Methyl Ester)

Diesel fuel that meets standard EN16734 mixed with a biofuel that meets standard EN14214 (possibly containing up to 10% Fatty Acid Methyl Ester)

Paraffinic diesel fuel that meets standard EN15940 mixed with a biofuel that meets standard EN14214 (possibly containing up to 7% Fatty Acid Methyl Ester).

The use of B20 or B30 fuel meeting standard EN16709 is possible in your diesel engines. However, this use, even occasional, requires strict

204 Driving and operating

application of the special servicing conditions referred to as "Arduous conditions". For more information, contact a dealer or a qualified workshop.

Caution

The use of any other type of (bio) fuel (vegetable or animal oils, pure or diluted, domestic fuel etc.) is strictly prohibited (risk of damage to the engine and fuel system).

Notice The only diesel additives authorised for use are those that meet the B715000 standard.

Vehicles with diesel engine operating in Ecuador require the additive DLP 32-600 to avoid damage of the injection system. This additive can only be purchased at Opel dealers. The additive has to be poured into the tank before refilling Diesel. For each 50 litres of Diesel refilled, 30 millilitres of additive have to be added. To dose

the additive, use the cap of the additive can. The cap allows a dose of 30 millilitres.

Low temperature operation At temperatures below 0 C, some diesel products with biodiesel blends may clog, freeze or gel, which may affect the fuel supply system. Starting and engine operation may not work properly. Make sure to fill winter grade diesel fuel at ambient temperatures below 0 C. Arctic grade diesel fuel can be used in extreme cold temperatures below -20 C. Using this fuel grade in warm or hot climates is not recommended and may cause engine stalling, poor starting or damage on the fuel injection system.

Refuelling

9 Danger

Before refuelling, switch off ignition and any external heaters with combustion chambers.

Follow the operating and safety instructions of the filling station when refuelling.

9 Danger

Fuel is flammable and explosive. No smoking. No naked flames or sparks. If you can smell fuel in your vehicle, have the cause of this remedied immediately by a workshop.

A label with symbols at the fuel filler flap is indicating the allowed fuel types. In Europe the pump nozzles of the filling stations are marked with these symbols. Refuel only the allowed fuel type.

Caution

In case of misfuelling, do not switch on ignition.

Fuel filler flap is located at left rear side of vehicle.

Driving and operating 205

If the vehicle is equipped with an electronic key system, the fuel filler flap can only be opened if the vehicle is unlocked. Depending on the version, release the fuel filler flap by pushing the flap or pulling at the right bottom corner.

Petrol and diesel refuelling Depending on the version, place the key in the lock and unlock the cap. To open, turn the cap slowly anticlockwise.

The fuel filler cap can be attached to the hook on the fuel filler flap. Place the nozzle in straight position to the filler neck and press with slight force to insert. To refuel, switch on pump nozzle. After the automatic cut-off, the tank can be topped up by operating the pump nozzle a maximum of two more times.

Caution

Wipe off any overflowing fuel immediately.

To close, turn the fuel filler cap clockwise until it clicks. Close the flap and allow it to engage.

Fuel filler cap Only use genuine fuel filler caps. Diesel-engined vehicles have special fuel filler caps.

206 Driving and operating

Trailer hitch General information Only use towing equipment that has been approved for your vehicle. Entrust retrofitting of towing equipment to a workshop. It may be necessary to make changes that affect the cooling system, heat shields or other equipment. The bulb outage detection function for trailer brake light cannot detect a partial bulb outage e.g. in case of four bulbs with a power of 5 W each, the function only detects lamp outage when only a single 5 W lamp remains or none remain. Fitting of towing equipment could cover the opening of the towing eye. If this is the case use the coupling ball bar for towing. Always keep the coupling ball bar in the vehicle to have it on hand if needed.

Driving characteristics and towing tips Before attaching a trailer, lubricate the coupling ball. However, do not do so if a stabiliser, which acts on the coupling ball, is being used to reduce snaking movements. During trailer towing do not exceed a speed of 50 mph. A maximum speed of 60 mph is only appropriate if an oscillation damper is used and the permissible gross trailer weight does not exceed the vehicle's curb weight. For trailers with low driving stability and caravan trailers, the use of an oscillation damper is strongly recommended. If the trailer starts snaking, drive more slowly, do not attempt to correct the steering and brake sharply if necessary. When driving downhill, drive in the same gear as if driving uphill and drive at a similar speed. Adjust tyre pressure to the value specified for full load 3 263.

Trailer towing Trailer loads The permissible trailer loads are vehicle and engine-dependent maximum values which must not be exceeded. The actual trailer load is the difference between the actual gross weight of the trailer and the actual coupling socket load with the trailer coupled. The permissible trailer loads are specified in the vehicle documents. In general, they are valid for inclines up to 12%. The permissible trailer load applies up to the specified incline and at sea level. Since engine power decreases as altitude increases due to the air becoming thinner, therefore reducing climbing ability, the permissible gross train weight also decreases by 10% for every 1000 metres of altitude. The gross train weight does not have to be reduced when driving on roads with slight inclines (less than 8%, e.g. motorways).

Driving and operating 207

The permissible gross train weight must not be exceeded. This weight is specified on the identification plate 3 256.

Vertical coupling load The vertical coupling load is the load exerted by the trailer on the coupling ball. It can be varied by changing the weight distribution when loading the trailer. The maximum permissible vertical coupling load is specified on the towing equipment identification plate and in the vehicle documents. Always aim for the maximum vertical coupling load, especially in the case of heavy trailers. The vertical coupling load should never fall below 25 kg.

Rear axle load When the trailer is coupled and the towing vehicle fully loaded, the permissible rear axle load (see identification plate or vehicle documents) may be exceeded by 60 kg, the gross vehicle weight rating must not be exceeded. If the

permissible rear axle load is exceeded, a maximum speed of 60 mph applies.

Towing equipment Depending on version the vehicle can be fitted with a detachable or a fixed coupling ball bar.

Type A

Caution

When operating without a trailer, remove the coupling ball bar.

Fitting the coupling ball bar

1. Place the key in the lock and unlock the coupling ball bar. Move the lever to the rear position.

2. Clean the contact points with a soft clean cloth.

Wheels and tyres

Tyre condition, wheel condition Drive over edges slowly and at right angles if possible. Driving over sharp edges can cause tyre and wheel damage. Do not trap tyres on the kerb when parking. Regularly check the wheels for damage. Seek the assistance of a workshop in the event of damage or unusual wear.

Winter tyres Winter tyres improve driving safety at temperatures below 7 C and should therefore be fitted on all wheels. In accordance with country-specific regulations, affix the speed sticker in the driver's field of view. All tyre sizes are permitted as winter tyres 3 263.

Tyre designations E.g. 225/55 R 18 98 V 225 : tyre width, mm 55 : cross-section ratio (tyre height

to tyre width), % R : belt type: Radial RF : type: RunFlat 18 : wheel diameter, inches 98 : load index e.g. 98 is equivalent

to 750 kg V : speed code letter

Speed code letter: Q : up to 100 mph S : up to 112 mph T : up to 118 mph H : up to 130 mph V : up to 150 mph W : up to 168 mph

Choose a tyre appropriate for the maximum speed of your vehicle. Refer to the EEC Certificate of Conformity provided with your vehicle or other national registration documents. Optional equipment could reduce the maximum speed of the vehicle.

232 Vehicle care

Directional tyres Directional tyres should be mounted so that they rotate in the correct direction. The proper rotation direction is indicated by a symbol (e.g. an arrow) on the sidewall.

Tyre pressure Check the pressure of cold tyres at least every 14 days and before any long journey. Do not forget the spare wheel. This also applies to vehicles with tyre pressure monitoring system.

Tyre pressure 3 263.

The tyre pressure information label on the left door frame indicates the original equipment tyres and the correspondent tyre pressures. The tyre pressure data refers to cold tyres. It applies to summer and winter tyres. Always inflate the spare tyre to the pressure specified for full load. Incorrect tyre pressures will impair safety, vehicle handling, comfort and fuel economy and will increase tyre wear. Tyre pressures differ depending on various options. For the correct tyre pressure value, follow the procedure below: 1. Identify the engine identifier code.

Engine data 3 260. 2. Identify the respective tyre.

The tyre pressure tables show all possible tyre combinations 3 263. For the tyres approved for your vehicle, refer to the EEC Certificate of Conformity provided with your vehicle or other national registration documents.

The driver is responsible for correct adjustment of tyre pressure.

9 Warning

If the pressure is too low, this can result in considerable tyre warm- up and internal damage, leading to tread separation and even to tyre blow-out at high speeds.

9 Warning

For specific tyres the recommended tyre pressure as shown in the tyre pressure table may exceed the maximum tyre pressure as indicated on the tyre. Never exceed the maximum tyre pressure as indicated on the tyre.

Temperature dependency The tyre pressure depends on the temperature of the tyre. During driving, tyre temperature and pressure increase. Tyre pressure values provided on the tyre

Vehicle care 233

information label and tyre pressure chart are valid for cold tyres, which means at 20 C. The pressure increases by nearly 1.5 psi for a 10 C temperature increase. This must be considered when warm tyres are checked.

Tyre deflation detection system The tyre deflation detection system continually checks the rotation speed of all four wheels and warns on low tyre pressure condition once vehicle is driving. This is achieved by comparing tyre rolling circumference with reference values and further signals. If a tyre loses pressure the control indicator w illuminates, a warning chime is given and a warning message is displayed in the Driver Information Centre. In this case reduce speed, avoid sharp cornering and strong braking. Stop at next safe opportunity and check tyre pressure. Control indicator w 3 105.

After adjusting tyre pressure initialise system to extinguish the control indicator and restart system.

Caution

Deflation detection system warns just about low tyre pressure condition and does not replace regular tyre maintenance by the driver.

In case of a system malfunction a message is displayed in the Driver Information Centre. Set correct tyre pressure and reinitialise system. If the failure continues to be displayed, contact a workshop. The system is inoperable when ABS or ESC has a malfunction or a temporary spare wheel is used. Once the road tyre has been refitted, check the tyre pressure with cold tyres and initialise the system.

System initialisation After tyre pressure correction or wheel change, the system must be initialised to learn new circumference reference values:

1. Always ensure that all four tyres have correct tyre pressure 3 263.

2. Apply parking brake.

3. Initialise the deflation detection system: If the vehicle has a graphic info display, press F for three seconds. If the vehicle has a colour info display, the initialisation is done in the vehicle personalisation 3 115.

4. Reset is confirmed by pop-up indication.

234 Vehicle care

After initialisation system automatically calibrates to new tyre pressures during driving. After longer drive the system will adopt and monitor new pressures. Always check tyre pressure with cold tyres. System has to be reinitialised when: Tyre pressure has been changed Load condition has been

changed Wheels have been swapped or

exchanged The system will not warn instantaneously on a tyre blow out or a rapid deflation. This is due to required calculation time.

Tread depth Check tread depth at regular intervals. Tyres should be replaced for safety reasons at a tread depth of 2-3 mm (4 mm for winter tyres).

For safety reasons, it is recommended that the tread depth of the tyres on one axle should not vary by more than 2 mm.

The legally permissible minimum tread depth (1.6 mm) has been reached when the tread has worn down as far as one of the tread wear indicators (TWI). Their position is indicated by markings on the sidewall. If there is more wear at the front than the rear, swap round front wheels and rear wheels periodically. Ensure that the direction of rotation of the wheels remains the same.

Tyres age, even if they are not used. We recommend tyre replacement every six years.

Changing tyre and wheel size If tyres of a different size than those fitted at the factory are used, it may be necessary to reprogramme the tyre deflation detection system and make other vehicle modifications. Tyre deflation detection system 3 233. Have the label with tyre pressures replaced.

9 Warning

The use of unsuitable tyres or wheels may lead to accidents and will invalidate the vehicle operating permit.

Vehicle care 235

Wheel covers Wheel covers and tyres that are factory approved for the respective vehicle and comply with all of the relevant wheel and tyre combination requirements must be used. If the wheel covers and tyres used are not factory approved, the tyres must not have a rim protection ridge. Wheel covers must not impair brake cooling.

9 Warning

Use of unsuitable tyres or wheel covers could lead to sudden pressure loss and thereby accidents.

Vehicles with steel wheels: When using locking wheel nuts, do not attach wheel covers.

Tyre chains

Tyre chains are only permitted on the front wheels. Always use fine mesh chains that add no more than 9 mm to the tyre tread and the inboard sides (including chain lock).

9 Warning

Damage may lead to tyre blowout.

Tyre chains are permitted on all tyres sizes allowed for the vehicle.

Temporary spare wheel The use of tyre chains is not permitted on the temporary spare wheel.

Tyre repair kit Minor damage to the tyre tread can be repaired with the tyre repair kit. Do not remove foreign bodies from the tyres. Tyre damage exceeding 4 mm or that is at tyre's sidewall cannot be repaired with the tyre repair kit.

9 Warning

Do not drive faster than 50 mph. Do not use for a lengthy period. Steering and handling may be affected.

In the case of a flat tyre: Apply the parking brake and engage first gear, reverse gear or P. Open the cover of the footwell storage 3 73.

236 Vehicle care

10. Set the rocker switch on the compressor to I. The tyre is filled with sealant.

11. The compressor pressure gauge briefly indicates up to 600 kPa (6 bar) whilst the sealant bottle is emptying (approx. 30 s). Then the pressure starts to drop.

12. All of the sealant is pumped into the tyre. Then the tyre is being inflated.

13. The prescribed tyre pressure should be obtained within ten minutes. Tyre pressure 3 263. When the correct pressure is obtained, switch off the compressor. If the prescribed tyre pressure is not obtained within ten minutes, remove the tyre repair kit. Move the vehicle one tyre rotation. Reattach the tyre repair kit and continue the filling procedure for ten minutes. If the prescribed tyre pressure is still not obtained, the tyre is too badly damaged. Seek the assistance of a workshop.

Drain excess tyre pressure with the button on the air hose. Do not run the compressor longer than ten minutes.

14. Detach the tyre repair kit. Remove sealant bottle from bracket. Screw the filler hose to the free connection of the sealant bottle. This prevents sealant from escaping. Stow tyre repair kit in load compartment.

15. Remove any excess sealant using a cloth.

238 Vehicle care

16. Continue driving immediately so that sealant is evenly distributed in the tyre. After driving approx. three miles but no more than ten minutes, stop and check tyre pressure. Screw compressor air hose directly onto tyre valve when doing this. Fill tyre as described before. Drain excess tyre pressure with the button on the air hose. If tyre pressure hasn't decreased under 150 kPa (1.5 bar), set it to the correct value. Otherwise the vehicle must not be used. Seek assistance of a workshop.3 263

Repeat the checking procedure once more after driving further three miles but no more than ten minutes to check that there is no more loss of pressure. If the tyre pressure has fallen below 150 kPa (1.5 bar), the vehicle must not be used. Seek the assistance of a workshop.

17. Stow away tyre repair kit in load compartment.

Notice The driving characteristics of the repaired tyre are severely affected, therefore have this tyre replaced. If unusual noise is heard or the compressor becomes hot, turn compressor off for at least 30 min. The built-in safety valve opens at a pressure of seven bar (102 psi). Note the expiry date of the kit. After this date its sealing capability is no longer guaranteed. Pay attention to storage information on sealant bottle.

Replace the used sealant bottle. Dispose of the bottle as prescribed by applicable laws. The compressor and sealant can be used from approx. -30 C.

Wheel changing Make the following preparations and observe the following information: Park the vehicle on a level, firm

Towing Towing the vehicle

Wrap a cloth around the tip of a flat screwdriver to prevent paint damage. Insert the screwdriver in the slot at the lower part of the cap. Release the cap carefully. The towing eye is stowed with the vehicle tools 3 230.

Screw in the towing eye as far as it will go until it stops in a horizontal position. Attach a tow rope or better still a tow rod to the towing eye. The towing eye must only be used for towing and not for recovering the vehicle. Switch on ignition to release steering wheel lock and to permit operation of brake lights, horn and windscreen wiper.

Caution

Deactivate the driver assistance systems like active emergency braking 3 179, otherwise the vehicle may automatically brake during towing.

Switch the selector lever to neutral. Release the parking brake.

Caution

Never tow a vehicle equipped with All Wheel Drive (AWD) with the front or rear tyres on the road. If you tow a vehicle equipped with AWD while the front or rear tyres are rolling on the road, the drive system in the vehicle could be severely damaged. When towing vehicles equipped with AWD, all four tyres must not be in contact with the road.

246 Vehicle care

Caution

Drive slowly. Do not drive jerkily. Excessive tractive force can damage the vehicle.

When the engine is not running, considerably more force is needed to brake and steer. To prevent the entry of exhaust gases from the towing vehicle, switch on the air recirculation and close the windows. Vehicles with automatic transmission: The vehicle must be towed facing forwards, not faster than 50 mph nor further than 60 miles. In all other cases and when the transmission is defective, the front axle must be raised off the ground. Seek the assistance of a workshop. After towing, unscrew the towing eye. Insert cap with the flange into the recess and fix cap by pushing.

Towing another vehicle

Wrap a cloth around the tip of a flat screwdriver to prevent paint damage. Insert the screwdriver in the slot at the lower part of the cap. Release the cap carefully. The towing eye is stowed with the vehicle tools 3 230.

Screw in the towing eye as far as it will go until it stops in a horizontal position. The lashing eye at the rear underneath the vehicle must never be used as a towing eye. Attach a tow rope or better still a tow rod to the towing eye. The towing eye must only be used for towing and not for recovering a vehicle.

Vehicle care 247

Caution

Drive slowly. Do not drive jerkily. Excessive tractive force can damage the vehicle.

After towing, unscrew the towing eye. Insert cap with the upper flange into the recess and fix cap by pushing.

Appearance care Exterior care Locks The locks are lubricated at the factory using a high quality lock cylinder grease. Use a de-icing agent only when absolutely necessary, as this has a degreasing effect and impairs lock function. After using a de-icing agent, have the locks regreased by a workshop.

Washing The paintwork of your vehicle is exposed to environmental influences. Bird droppings, dead insects, resin, pollen and the like should be cleaned off immediately, as they contain aggressive constituents which can cause paint damage. If using a vehicle wash, comply with the vehicle wash manufacturer's instructions. The windscreen wiper and rear window wiper must be

switched off. Remove antenna and external accessories such as roof racks etc. If you wash your vehicle by hand, make sure that the insides of the wheel housings are also thoroughly rinsed out. Wax painted parts of the vehicle regularly. Clean edges and folds on opened doors and the bonnet as well as the areas they cover. Clean bright metal mouldings with a cleaning solution approved for aluminium to avoid damages.

Caution

Always use a cleaning agent with a pH value of 4 to 9. Do not use cleaning agents on hot surfaces.

Do not clean the engine compartment with a steam-jet or high-pressure jet cleaner.

248 Vehicle care

Thoroughly rinse and leather-off the vehicle. Rinse leather frequently. Use separate leathers for painted and glass surfaces: remnants of wax on the windows will impair vision. Have the door hinges of all doors greased by a workshop.

Exterior lights Headlight and other light covers are made of plastic. Do not use any abrasive or caustic agents, do not use an ice scraper, and do not clean them dry.

Polishing and waxing Polishing is necessary only if the paint has become dull or if solid deposits have become attached to it. Plastic body parts must not be treated with wax or polishing agents.

Windows and wiper blades Switch off wipers before handling in their areas. Use a soft lint-free cloth or chamois leather together with window cleaner and insect remover.

When cleaning the rear window from inside, always wipe in parallel to the heating element to prevent damage. For mechanical removal of ice, use a sharp-edged ice scraper. Press the scraper firmly against the glass so that no dirt can get under it and scratch the glass. Clean smearing wiper blades with a soft cloth and window cleaner. Also make sure to remove any residues such as wax, insect residues and similar from the window. Ice residues, pollution and continuous wiping on dry windows will damage or even destroy the wiper blades.

Glass panel Use a soft lint-free cloth or chamois leather together with window cleaner to clean the glass panel.

Wheels and tyres Do not use high-pressure jet cleaners. Clean rims with a pH-neutral wheel cleaner.

Rims are painted and can be treated with the same agents as the body.

Paintwork damage Rectify minor paintwork damage with a touch-up pen before rust forms. Have more extensive damage or rust areas repaired by a workshop.

Underbody Some areas of the vehicle underbody have a PVC undercoating while other critical areas have a durable protective wax coating. After the underbody is washed, check the underbody and have it waxed if necessary. Bitumen / rubber materials could damage the PVC coating. Have underbody work carried out by a workshop. Before and after winter, wash the underbody and have the protective wax coating checked.

Vehicle care 249

Liquid gas system

9 Danger

Liquid gas is heavier than air and can collect in sink points. Take care when performing work at the underbody in a pit.

For painting work and when using a drying booth at a temperature above 60 C, the liquid gas tank must be removed. Do not make any modifications to the liquid gas system.

Towing equipment Do not clean the coupling ball bar with a steam-jet or high-pressure jet cleaner.

Interior care Interior and upholstery Only clean the vehicle interior, including the instrument panel fascia and panelling, with a dry cloth or interior cleaner.

Clean the leather upholstery with clear water and a soft cloth. In case of heavy soiling, use leather care. The instrument cluster and the displays should only be cleaned using a soft damp cloth. If necessary use a weak soap solution. Clean fabric upholstery with a vacuum cleaner and brush. Remove stains with an upholstery cleaner. Clothing fabrics may not be colourfast. This could cause visible discolourations, especially on light- coloured upholstery. Removable stains and discolourations should be cleaned as soon as possible. Clean seat belts with lukewarm water or interior cleaner.

Caution

Close Velcro fasteners as open Velcro fasteners on clothing could damage seat upholstery. The same applies to clothing with sharp-edged objects, like zips or belts or studded jeans.

Plastic and rubber parts Plastic and rubber parts can be cleaned with the same cleaner as used to clean the body. Use interior cleaner if necessary. Do not use any other agent. Avoid solvents and petrol in particular. Do not use high- pressure jet cleaners.

Floor mats

Recommended fluids, lubricants and parts Recommended fluids and lubricants Only use products that meet the recommended specifications.

9 Warning

Operating materials are hazardous and could be poisonous. Handle with care. Pay attention to information given on the containers.

Engine oil Engine oil is identified by its quality and its viscosity. Quality is more important than viscosity when selecting which engine oil to use. The engine oil quality ensures e.g. engine cleanliness, wear protection and engine oil aging control, whereas viscosity grade gives information on the oil's thickness over a temperature range.

Select the appropriate engine oil based on its quality and on the minimum ambient temperature 3 258.

Topping up engine oil

Caution

In case of any spilled oil, wipe it up and dispose it properly.

Engine oils of different manufacturers and brands can be mixed as long as they comply with the required engine oil quality and viscosity. Select the appropriate engine oil based on its quality and on the minimum ambient temperature 3 258.

Additional engine oil additives The use of additional engine oil additives could cause damage and invalidate the warranty.

Engine oil viscosity grades The SAE viscosity grade gives information of the thickness of the oil.

Multigrade oil is indicated by two figures, e.g. SAE 5W-30. The first figure, followed by a W, indicates the low temperature viscosity and the second figure the high temperature viscosity. Select the appropriate viscosity grade depending on the minimum ambient temperature 3 258. All of the recommended viscosity grades are suitable for high ambient temperatures.

Coolant and antifreeze Use only organic acid type-long life coolant (LLC) antifreeze approved for the vehicle. Consult a workshop. The system is factory filled with coolant designed for excellent corrosion protection and frost protection down to approx. -37 C. This concentration should be maintained all year round. The use of additional coolant additives that intend to give additional corrosion protection or seal against minor leaks can cause function problems. Liability

Service and maintenance 255

for consequences resulting from the use of additional coolant additives will be rejected.

Washer fluid Use only washer fluid approved for the vehicle to prevent damage of wiper blades, paintwork, plastic and rubber parts. Consult a workshop.

Brake fluid Over time, brake fluid absorbs moisture which will reduce braking effectiveness. The brake fluid should therefore be replaced at the specified interval.

AdBlue Only use AdBlue to reduce the nitrogen oxides in the exhaust emission 3 152.

Vehicle data recording and privacy Event data recorders Electronic control units are installed in your vehicle. Control units process data which is received by vehicle sensors and other components, or which they generate themselves or exchange amongst themselves. Some control units are necessary for the safe functioning of your vehicle, others assist you while you drive (driver assistance systems), while others provide comfort or infotainment functions. The following contains general information about data processing in the vehicle. You will find additional information as to which specific data is uploaded, stored and passed on to third parties and for what purpose in your vehicle under the key word Data Protection closely linked to the references for the affected functional characteristics in the relevant Owner's Manual or in the general terms of sale. These are also available online.

Operating data in the vehicle Control units process data for operation of the vehicle. This data includes, e.g.: vehicle status information (e.g.

speed, movement delay, lateral acceleration, wheel rotation rate, "seat belts fastened" display)

ambient conditions (e.g. temperature, rain sensor, distance sensor)

As a rule such data is transient, not stored for longer than an operational cycle, and only processed on board the vehicle itself. Control units often include data storage (including the vehicle key). This is used to allow information to be documented temporarily or permanently on vehicle condition, component stress, maintenance requirements and technical events and errors.

Customer information 269

Depending on technical equipment level, the data stored is as follows: system component operating

states (e.g. fill level, tyre pressure, battery status)

faults and defects in important system components (e.g. lights, brakes)

system reactions in special driving situations (e.g. triggering of an airbag, actuation of the stability control systems)

information on events damaging the vehicle

for electric vehicles the amount of charge in the high-voltage battery, estimated range

In special cases (e.g. if the vehicle has detected a malfunction), it may be necessary to save data that would otherwise just be volatile. When you use services (e.g. repairs, maintenance), the operating data saved can be read together with the vehicle identification number and used when necessary. Staff working for the service network (e.g. garages, manufacturers) or third parties (e.g.

breakdown services) can read the data from the vehicle. The same applies to warranty work and quality assurance measures. Data is generally read via the OBD (On-Board Diagnostics) port prescribed by law in the vehicle. The operating data which is read out, documents the technical condition of the vehicle or individual components and assists with fault diagnosis, compliance with warranty obligations and quality improvement. This data, in particular information on component stress, technical events, operator errors and other faults, is transmitted to the manufacturer where appropriate, together with the vehicle identification number. The manufacturer is also subject to product liability. The manufacturer potentially also uses operating data from vehicles for product recalls. This data can also be used to check customer warranty and guarantee claims. Fault memories in the vehicle can be reset by a service company when carrying out servicing or repairs or at your request.

Comfort and infotainment functions Comfort settings and custom settings can be stored in the vehicle and changed or reset at any time. Depending on the equipment level in question, these include seat and steering wheel position

settings chassis and air conditioning

settings custom settings such as interior

lighting You can input your own data in the infotainment functions for your vehicle as part of the selected features. Depending on the equipment level in question, these include multimedia data such as music,

videos or photos for playback in an integrated multimedia system

address book data for use with an integrated hands-free system or an integrated navigation system

270 Customer information

input destinations data on the use of online services

This data for comfort and infotainment functions can be stored locally in the vehicle or be kept on a device that you have connected to the vehicle (e.g. a smartphone, USB stick or MP3 player). Data that you have input yourself can be deleted at any time. This data can only be transmitted out of the vehicle at your request, particularly when using online services in accordance with the settings selected by you.

Smartphone integration, e.g. Android Auto or Apple CarPlay If your vehicle is equipped accordingly, you can connect your smartphone or another mobile device to the vehicle so that you can control it via the controls integrated in the vehicle. The smartphone image and sound can be output via the multimedia system in this case. At the same time, specific information is transmitted to your smartphone. Depending on the type of integration,

this includes data such as position data, day / night mode and other general vehicle information. For more information, please see the operating instructions for the vehicle / infotainment system. Integration allows selected smartphone apps to be used, such as navigation or music playback. No further integration is possible between smartphone and vehicle, in particular active access to vehicle data. The nature of further data processing is determined by the provider of the app used. Whether you can define settings, and if so which ones, is dependent on the app in question and your smartphone's operating system.

Online services If your vehicle has a radio network connection, this allows data to be exchanged between your vehicle and other systems. The radio network connection is made possible by means of a transmitter device in your vehicle or a mobile device provided by you (e.g. a smartphone). Online functions can be used via this radio network connection. These include online services and applications / apps provided to you by the manufacturer or other providers.

Proprietary services In the case of the manufacturer's online services, the relevant functions are described by the manufacturer in an appropriate location (e.g. Owner's Manual, the manufacturer's website) and the associated data protection information is provided. Personal data may be used to provide online services. Data exchange for this purpose takes place via a protected connection, e.g. using the manufacturer's IT systems provided for the purpose. Collection,

Customer information 271

processing and use of personal data for the purposes of preparation of services take place solely on the basis of legal permission, e.g. in the case of a legally prescribed emergency communication system or a contractual agreement, or by virtue of consent. You can activate or deactivate the services and functions (which are subject to charges to some extent) and, in some cases, the vehicle's entire radio network connection. This does not include statutory functions and services such as an emergency communication system.

Third party services If you make use of online services from other providers (third parties), these services are subject to the liability and data protection and usage conditions of the provider in question. The manufacturer frequently has no influence over the content exchanged in this regard.

Therefore, please note the nature, scope and purpose of the collection and use of personal data within the scope of third party services provided by the service provider in question.

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) RFID technology is used in some vehicles for functions such as tyre pressure monitoring and immobiliser. It is also used in connection with conveniences such as radio remote controls for door locking / unlocking and starting. RFID technology in Vauxhall vehicles does not use or record personal information or link with any other Vauxhall system containing personal information.
