If the vehicle is switched to Manual mode while Winter programme is active, the Winter programme is switched off. Selecting reverse Engage only when the vehicle is stationary. With the footbrake depressed, move the selector lever towards R.
Tecshift 83 Engine braking assistance Automatic mode When driving downhill Tecshift does not shift into the higher gears until a fairly high engine speed has been reached. During braking Tecshift shifts down to a lower gear in good time. Manual mode To utilize the engine braking effect, select a lower gear in good time when driving downhill. Laden programme (kg) Kickdown It is possible to use Laden programme in both manual and Automatic modes.
84 Tecshift Stopping the vehicle Parking In Automatic or Manual mode, once the vehicle is stationary first gear engages automatically and the clutch opens. In R, reverse remains engaged. Before leaving the vehicle: When stopping on gradients engage handbrake or depress brake pedal. To prevent overheating of the clutch, an intermittent, audible warning may sound as a signal to depress the footbrake or apply the handbrake. Switch off engine if stopping for a lengthy period, e.g. in traffic jams.
Tecshift Interruption of power supply The clutch is not disengaged if the vehicle battery is discharged and a gear has been selected. The vehicle cannot move. If the battery is flat, start the vehicle using jump leads - see page 116. If the cause of the interruption to the power supply is not a discharged battery, consult a workshop. We recommend your Vauxhall Authorised Repairer. Fault W If a fault occurs in Tecshift, control indicator W will be shown in the transmission display.
86 Driving hints Driving hints The first 600 miles (1000 km) Power steering Drive your vehicle at various speeds. Do not use full throttle. Never allow the engine to labour at low revs. Never leave the steering wheel on full lock when the vehicle is stationary as this may damage the power steering pump. Make good use of all gears. Depress the accelerator pedal a maximum of around three quarters of the available pedal travel in all gears and drive ranges. If the power steering should fail - e.g.
Driving hints 87 Switching off the engine Engine rpm Clutch operation If the engine temperature is very high, e.g. after driving in mountainous terrain: allow the engine to idle for approximately two minutes in order to prevent heat accumulation. Drive in a low engine speed range for each gear as much as possible. Always depress the clutch pedal hard to the floor to prevent shifting difficulties and transmission damage. There must be no mats in the area of the pedals.

End-of-life vehicle recovery For detailed information on Vauxhall’s on-going commitment to achieving 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.
Save fuel, protect the environment Overrun z The fuel supply is automatically shut off during overrun, e.g. when the vehicle is being driven down long gradients or during braking - see page 87 z To enable the overrun cut-off to take effect and save fuel, do not accelerate or declutch. Correct gear selection z High revs increase engine wear and fuel consumption. z Do not race your engine. Avoid driving at high engine speeds. Driving with an eye on the tachometer saves fuel.
90 Fuel consumption, fuel, refuelling Fuel consumption, fuel, refuelling Fuel consumption Fuel for diesel engines Fuel consumption is determined under specific driving conditions. Diesel engines must be operated only on commercially available diesel fuel meeting the specifications of DIN EN 590. Fitting special equipment will increase the weight of the vehicle. This in turn increases fuel consumption and reduces the specified maximum speed of the vehicle.
Fuel consumption, fuel, refuelling 91 Refuelling 9 Warning Care must be taken when handling fuel. Before refuelling, switch off the engine and any external heaters with combustion chambers (identified by a sticker on the tank flap). Switch off mobile phones. Fuel is flammable and explosive. Therefore, avoid naked flames and sparks when handling or in the vicinity of fuel. Do not smoke! This also applies in places where fuel can only be detected by its characteristic smell.
92 Catalytic converter, exhaust emissions Catalytic converter, exhaust emissions Catalytic converter for diesel engines Damage to the catalytic converter or the vehicle may result if the following points are not observed: Consult a workshop as quickly as possible in the event of irregular engine running, a significant loss of engine power or other unusual malfunctions. If necessary, driving may be continued for a short time at a low speed and with a low engine speed.
Catalytic converter, exhaust emissions Control indicator Z for exhaust emissions If it illuminates while the engine is running, it is possible a fault has occurred in the emission control system. The permitted emission values may be exceeded. Consult a workshop immediately. Control indicator A for engine electronics Illuminates for a few seconds when ignition is switched on. If the control indicator illuminates when the engine is running, there is a fault in the engine electronics.
94 Catalytic converter, exhaust emissions To carry out regeneration1): With the engine at normal operating temperature, maintain an average speed of approx. 40 mph (60 km/h) until control indicator 8 goes out. In some cases this can take up to 20 minutes. Exhaust gases 9 Warning Engine exhaust gases contain poisonous carbon monoxide, which has no colour or odour and can be lethal if inhaled. Failing to achieve these speeds or an interruption to your journey may prevent regeneration taking place.
Catalytic converter, exhaust emissions Maintenance Have all maintenance work carried out at the intervals specified by Vauxhall. We recommend that you entrust this work to your Vauxhall Authorised Repairer, who has proper equipment and trained personnel available. Electronic testing systems permit rapid diagnosis and remedy of faults.
96 Drive Control Systems Drive Control Systems Electronic Stability Programme (ESP) 3 The ESP (Electronic Stability Programme) 3 improves driving stability when necessary, independently of the type of road surface and the tyre grip. It also includes the Traction Control system function. The system monitors vehicle movements. As soon as the vehicle starts to swerve (understeers / oversteers) engine output is reduced (the sound of the engine changes) and individual wheels are specifically braked.
Drive Control Systems 97 Illuminated during driving: Fault in the system. Driving can be continued. Poor road surface conditions may however still cause vehicle stability to be impaired. Have the cause of the fault remedied by a workshop. The system’s integrated selfdiagnostics allows faults to be quickly remedied. Control indicator v Illuminates for a few seconds when ignition is switched on. The system is now ready for operation. Flashing during driving: This shows the system has come into action.

Parking distance sensors 3................ 98 99 100 102 Air suspension 3 Operates automatically when the vehicle is driven. Manual operation Operative with the ignition on and handbrake applied. The air suspension system adjusts the ride height of the rear of the vehicle according to the weight of the load.
Chassis systems 99 Cruise control 3 The cruise control makes it possible to store and maintain any speed from approx. 20 mph (30 km/h) to almost maximum speed. The cruise control is operated with the switches located on the instrument panel. Do not use the cruise control if it is not advisable to maintain a constant speed (e.g. in situations presenting a danger to yourself or other road users, in heavy traffic or on winding, slippery or greasy roads).
100 Chassis systems To deactivate: Press switch m, the cruise control is deactivated. The vehicle slowly decelerates. To continue driving depress the accelerator pedal in the usual way. Cruise control is also deactivated if: z The clutch pedal is depressed. z The brake pedal is depressed. z The vehicle speed drops below approx. 20 mph (30 km/h). Cruise control speed limiter 3 The speed limiter prevents the vehicle exceeding a preset maximum speed above approx. 20 mph (30 km/h).
Chassis systems 101 Where the speed limit cannot be maintained for example when driving on a steep incline, the speed limit will flash on the trip computer display1). Exceeding the speed limit In the event of an emergency it is possible to exceed the speed limit by: depressing the accelerator firmly beyond the point of resistance. The speed limit will flash on the trip computer display to inform you that the stored speed is being exceeded.
102 Chassis systems The parking distance sensors are automatically enabled when the ignition is switched on and reverse gear is selected. Readiness for operation is indicated by brief acoustic alarm. As the vehicle slowly gets close to an object while reversing, an intermittent acoustic signal is audible in the passenger compartment. The interval between the signals becomes shorter as the distance is reduced. If the distance is less than 25 cm, a continuous signal is audible.
Brakes Brakes The effectiveness of the brakes is an important factor for traffic safety. In the interest of effectiveness, do not brake unnecessarily hard during the first 120 miles (200 km) after new disc brake pads have been fitted. Footbrake............................................ 104 Handbrake .......................................... 104 ABS u ................................................. 105 103 Wear of the brake linings must not exceed a certain limit.
104 Brakes In order to utilise the full pedal travel particularly in the event of a brake circuit fault - there must be no mats in the area of the pedals. With the engine stopped the servo assistance is discontinued after the brake pedal has been depressed once or twice. The braking action will not be reduced but greater pedal pressure will be necessary. Take extra care when the vehicle is being towed. Check the brake lights before starting out on a journey.
Brakes ABS u The ABS (Anti-lock Brake System) continuously monitors the vehicle's brake system and prevents the wheels from locking, irrespective of the road condition and tyre grip. Control indicator R for brake system Control indicator illuminates when ignition is switched on if handbrake is applied and/or fluid level for brake system is too low. Brake fluid level - see page 142.
106 Brakes 9 Warning 9 Warning 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. If there is a fault in the ABS, the rear wheels may tend to lock in the event of unusually heavy braking. This may cause the vehicle to swerve. The benefits of the ABS are lost. Do not let this special safety feature tempt you into taking risks when driving.
Wheels, tyres Wheels, tyres Tyres See page 159 for suitable tyres and restrictions. Factory-fitted tyres are matched to the chassis and offer optimum driving comfort and safety.

Hidden tyre damage is not eliminated by subsequently adjusting the inflation pressure. Increased pressure resulting from tyre warm-up must not be reduced, otherwise the pressure may drop below the permissible minimum. After having checked the tyre inflation pressures, securely tighten the valve caps.
Wheels, tyres 109 Check tyres regularly for damage (foreign bodies, punctures, cuts, cracks, bulges in sidewalls). Check wheels for damage. In the event of damage or abnormal wear, consult a workshop. 9 Warning Damage may lead to tyre blowout. Tread depth Check tread depth regularly. Should the front tyres show greater wear than the rear tyres, have both front wheels exchanged with the rear wheels so that the tyres with deeper tread are on the front axle.
110 Wheels, tyres If you use winter tyres 3, the spare wheel may still be fitted with a summer tyre. If you use the spare wheel the vehicle’s handling may be altered. Obtain a replacement for the faulty tyre as soon as possible, and have the wheel balanced and fitted to the vehicle. General information Note that the danger of aquaplaning is greater if the tyres are worn. Tyres age, even if they are used only very little or not at all.
Wheels, tyres Wheel covers on steel wheels may come into contact with parts of the chains. In such cases, remove the wheel covers. Tyre chains may only be used at speeds up to 30 mph (50 km/h) and, when travelling on roads that are free of snow, they may only be used for brief periods since they are subject to rapid wear on a hard road and may snap. Tyre chains 3 See page 159 for restrictions. Tyre chains may be used only on the drive wheels (front axle).

Service plan, maintenance 137 Never carry out any repairs or adjustment and maintenance work on the vehicle yourself. This especially applies to the engine, chassis and safety parts. You may out of ignorance infringe the provisions of the law and, by not performing the work properly, you may endanger yourself and other road users. Checking and topping up fluids A note on safety To avoid the possibility of injury, only carry out engine compartment checks (e.g.
138 Service plan, maintenance Engine oil Information on engine oils is available in the Service Booklet. Engine oil level It is normal for every engine to consume some oil, and it is sometimes necessary to check and top up the engine oil level between oil changes. 9 Warning Do not allow the engine oil level to drop below the minimum level! For this reason the engine oil level should be checked every 300 miles (500 km) or before starting a long trip.
Service plan, maintenance If consumption exceeds more than 0.5 litre every 600 miles (1000 km) after this running-in period, consult a workshop. A stabilization of the oil consumption will not take place until the vehicle has been driven several thousand miles. Only then can the actual degree of consumption be established.
140 Service plan, maintenance Coolant During operation the system is pressurized. The temperature may therefore rise to over 100 °C. The anti-freeze provides excellent corrosion protection for the cooling and heating system, as well as freeze protection down to -30 °C. Certain types of anti-freeze can lead to engine damage. Make sure that you are informed! We therefore recommend the use of anti-freeze that has been approved by Vauxhall.
Service plan, maintenance 141 9 Warning Allow engine to cool down before removing coolant filler cap. Remove filler cap carefully so that pressure can escape slowly, otherwise there is a risk of scalding. Top up anti-freeze. If no anti-freeze is available, top up with clean tap water. If tap water is unavailable, distilled water can be used. Freeze protection and corrosion protection Before the start of the cold weather season, have the coolant checked for correct concentration by a workshop.
142 Service plan, maintenance Coolant temperature For physical reasons, the engine temperature gauge shows the coolant temperature only if the coolant level is adequate. Extreme cleanliness is important, since brake fluid contamination can lead to brake system malfunctions. After correcting the brake fluid level, have the cause of the loss remedied by a workshop. During operation the system is pressurized. The temperature may therefore rise to over 100 °C.
Service plan, maintenance 143 Windscreen wiper Clear vision is essential for safe driving. Perform regular checks on the windscreen wiper to ensure it is operating correctly. We recommend wiper blade replacement at least once a year. If the windscreen is dirty, operate the windscreen wash system before switching on the windscreen wiper. This will avoid wiper blade wear. Do not switch on the windscreen wiper if the windscreen is iced up as this could damage the wiper blades or the wiper system.
144 Service plan, maintenance The windscreen wash system will not freeze in winter: Freeze protection down to - 5 °C - 10 °C - 20 °C - 30 °C Mixture - Vauxhall Windscreen Wash Solvent : Water 1:3 1:2 1:1 2:1 When closing the container, press the lid firmly over the beaded edge. Windscreen and headlight 3 wash system The filler opening of the fluid container for the windscreen and headlight wash system is located on the front left-hand side - as seen from the front of the engine compartment.
Service plan, maintenance 145 9 Warning We recommend that you have battery changes carried out by a Vauxhall Authorised Repairer. The Vauxhall Authorised Repairer knows the laws concerning the disposal of used batteries and therefore protects the environment and your health. Battery Battery access The battery is located beneath the front centre floor panel. Lift the floor covering and use the tool supplied in the tool kit to loosen 4 screws. Remove cover plate.
146 Service plan, maintenance To avoid damaging the vehicle, do not make any modifications to the electrical system, e.g. connecting additional consumers or tampering with electronic control units (chip tuning). 9 Warning Electronic ignition systems generate very high voltages. Do not touch the ignition system; high voltage can be fatal.
Vehicle care Vehicle care Consult a Vauxhall Authorised Repairer with regard to care aids tested and recommended by Vauxhall. In caring for your vehicle observe all national environmental regulations, particularly when washing your vehicle. Regular, thorough care contributes to improving the appearance of your vehicle and maintaining its value. It is also a prerequisite for claims made under the warranty in the event of paint or corrosion damage.
148 Vehicle care Washing The paintwork of your vehicle is exposed to environmental influences, e.g. continuous changes in weather conditions, industrial waste gases and dust or thawing salts, so wash and wax your vehicle regularly. When using automatic car washes, select a programme which includes waxing. Bird droppings, dead insects, resin, pollen and the like should be cleaned off immediately, as they contain aggressive constituents which can cause paint damage.
Vehicle care 149 Paint damage Plastic and rubber parts Seat belts Minor paint damage such as stone chips, scratches etc. should be treated immediately with Vauxhall Touch-Up Paint or Aerosol before corrosion can form. If corrosion has already formed, consult a workshop. Do not forget the surfaces and edges nearest to the road where rust may also form unnoticed. For additional cleaning of plastic and rubber parts use Cleaner. Do not use any other agent, and in particular do not use solvents or petrol.
150 Vehicle care Windscreen wiper blades Smearing wiper blades should be cleaned with a soft cloth and Vauxhall Windscreen Wash Solvent, and replaced if necessary. Locks The locks are lubricated before they leave the factory with a high-grade lock cylinder grease. Vauxhall lock cylinder grease prevents the locks from freezing up. Use de-icing agents only in emergencies, as they have a degreasing effect and will impair the functioning of the locks. After using de-icing agents regrease the locks.
