Vauxhall Full Size airbag system
The Vauxhall Full Size airbag system
comprises several individual systems.
Front airb ag system 3
The front airbag system will be triggered in
the event of a serious accident involving a
frontal impact and forms safety cushions
for the driver and front passenger. The
forward movement of the driver and front
passenger is checked and the risk of
injuries to the upper body and head
thereby substantially reduced.
Picture no: 18088s.tif
Side airbag system 3
The side airbag system triggers when a
side-on collision occurs and provides a
safety barrier for the driver and/or
passenger in the respective front door
area. This reduces the risk of injury to the
up per body considerably in case of a side
impact.

Mobile telephones and radio
equipment (CB) 3
The Vauxhall installation instructions and
the operating guidelines provided by the
telephone manufacturer must be observed
when fitting and operating a mob ile
telephone. Failure to do so could invalidate
the vehicle ’s operating perm it (EU Directive
95/54/EG).
Recommended prerequisites for fault-free
operation:
z Professionally installed exterior a ntenna
to ob ta in th e max imu m rang e poss ible
z Maximum transmission power 10 Watt,
z Installation of the te lephone in a suitable
spot (see information on page 87).
Obtain advice on predetermined
installation locations for the external
antenna and equipment holder and ways
of using devices with transmission power of
more than 10 Watts. We recom mend that
you consult your Vauxhall Authorised
Repairer, who will have brackets and
various installation kits available as
accessories and will install them in
accordance with regulations.
A hands-free attachment without an
external antenna in mobile phone
standards GSM 900/1800/1900 and UMTS
must only be operated if the ma ximum
transmission power of the mobile phone
does not exceed 2 Watts w ith GSM 900 and
1 Watt in other cases. The operating
regulations stipulated by the manufacturer
of the telephone and the hands-free
attachment must be complied with.
For reasons of safety, we recommend that
you avoid using the phone while driving.
Even the use of the hands-free a tta chm ent
could be a distraction from the traffic
situation. Be sure to follow the laws of the
country in which you are driving.
9 Warning
Mobile phones and radio equipment may
cause malfunctions in the vehicle
electronics if they are op erated in the
vehicle without the external antenna
unless the above-mentioned regulations
are complied with.
Mobile phones that do not comply with
the above-mentioned mobile phone
standard and radio equipment must only
be op erated using an antenna that is
attached to the exterior of the vehicle.

z The range of the radio frequency remote
control has been exceeded.
z Remote control battery volta ge is too
low. Battery replacement -
see right-hand column.
z Frequent, repeated operation of the
radio frequency remote control outside
the reception range of the vehicle (e.g.
too far from vehicle, remote control is
then no longer recognised). Remote
control synchronisation - see next page.
z If the central locking system is
overloaded as a result of repeated
opera tion at short intervals. The power
supply is cut off for a brief period.
z Interference from higher-power radio
waves from other sources.

possible against the rear seat backrests
or, if the rear seat ba ckrests are folded
down, ag ainst the front seat back rests. If
ob jects are to be stacked, the heavier
objects should be placed at the bottom.
Unsecured objects in the load
compartment would be thrown forward
with grea t force, for instance in the event
of heavy braking.
z Secure heavy objects with lashing
straps 3 attached to lashing eyes 3
see page 69. If heavy loads slip when the
vehicle is braked heavily or driven
around a bend, the handling of the
vehicle may change.
z When transporting objects with the
backrests folded down, install the safety
net 3. See page 68.
z Close the load compartment cover 3 so
that objects are not reflected in the rear
window.
z When transporting objects in the load
compa rtm ent with the seat backrests not
folded down, the backrests must be fully
upright and engaged in position. See
page 65.
z Do not allow the load to protrude above
the upper edge of the rear seat
backrests, or above the upper edge of
the front seat backrests if the rear seat
backrests a re folded down.
z The warning triangle 3 and first-aid kit
(cushion) 3 must always be freely

z Do not place any objects in front of the
rear window or on the instrument panel.
They are reflected in the glass, obstruct
the driver’s view and will be thrown
th rough the ve hicle, for insta nce in the
event of heavy braking.
z No objects must be placed in the area in
which the airbags inflate, as they could
cause injury when the airbags are
triggered.
z The load must not hinder handbrake
opera tion or gear shifting or impair the
driver in any way.
z Do not drive with load compartment
open when transporting bulky objects,
for example, since toxic exhaust fumes
could penetra te the interior.
z Weights, payload and roof load
see page 202.
z Roof load s increase the the ve hic le’s
sensitivity to crosswinds and has a
negative affect on driveability due to an
raised centre of gravity.
z If objects are transported in the load
compartment, the split load compart-
ment grille 3 m us t a lw a ys be lock ed in

Three-stage safety system
Comprising:
z three-point seat belts
z belt tensioners a t the front seats
z airbag sy ste ms for driver a nd front
passenger 3.
The three stag es are a ctivated in sequence
depending on the severity of the accident:
z The automatic seat belt locking devices
prevent the belt strap from being pulled
out and thus ensure that the vehicle
occupants are retained in their seats.
z The front seat belt buckles are p ulled
downwards. As a result, the seat belts
are instantaneously tightened and the
occupants are made aware of the
deceleration of the vehicle at a very early
stage. This reduces the stress placed on
the body.
z The airbag systems are also triggered in
the event of severe accidents and form a
safety cushion for the occupants.
Thoroughly read the instructions
accompanying the child restraint system!

9 Warning
The airbag systems serve to supple me nt
the three-point seat belts and belt
tensioners. The seat belts must therefore
always be worn. Disregard of these
instructions may lead to injuries or
endanger life. Vehicle passengers should
be informed accordingly.
76 Safety systems
Seat belts
In the event of an accident, persons not
wearing seat belts endanger their fellow
occupants and themselves.
Control indicator X 3 for the seat belt see
page 24.
Seat belts are designed to be used by only
one person at a time. They are not suitable
for children under 12 years of age or
150 cm.
For children up to 12 yea rs of age, we
recommend the Vauxhall child restraint
system – see page 89.
Three-point seat belts
The vehicle is equipped with three-point
seat belts with automatic retractors and
locking devices, allowing freedom of b ody
movement although the spring -tensioned
belts always ensure a snug fit.
Information on correct seating position -
see pages 63, 79, 83.
The belt has a "vehicle sensitive retractor"
whic h is designed to lock during heavy
acceleration or deceleration in any
direction.
Testing the belts
Plea se check all parts of the belt system
occasionally for damage and correct
operation. Have damaged parts replaced .
In ca se of an accident, please replace
overstretched belts and triggered belt
tensioners. We recommend that you
consult your Vauxhall Authorised Repairer.
Do not perform any alterations on the
belts, their anchorages, the automatic
retractors or the belt buckles.
Make sure that b elts are not damaged or
trapped by sharp-edged objects.
9 Wa rning
Alwa ys wear your seat belt, and that
means also in urban traffic and when you
are a rear seat passenger. It can save
your life!
Pregnant women must always wear a
seat belt – see page 79.
77S afety systems
Belt tensioners
The front se at belts are equip ped w ith belt
tensioners. In the event of a head-on or
rear-end collision of a certain severity, the
buckles are pulled downwards, thereby
tightening the belts.
Actuati on of belt tensioners
is indicated by illumination of control
indica tor v, see next page.
The belt tensioners must be replaced after
activation. We recommend that you
consu lt y our Va ux ha ll Authorised Re pairer.
If the seat belts are undamaged the
operation thereof is unaffected, even if the
belt tensioners have been triggered.
Important information - see page 82.
78 Safety systems
Cont rol indica tor v for belt t ensioners
The functionality of the belt tensioners is
electronically monitored together with the
airbag systems. Op erational readiness is
indicated by control indicator v in the
instrument panel. When the ignition is
switched on, the control indicator
illuminates for approx. 4 seconds. If it
doesnot illuminate, does not go off within
4 seconds, or illuminates whilst driving,
there is a fault in the belt tensioner system
or the airbag systems – see page 86. The
belt tensioner or the airbag systems may
fail to trigger in the event of an a ccident.
Triggered belt tensioners are indicated by
steady illum ination of v.
The systems integrated self-diagnostics
allow s faults to be quickly remedied. Have
you r Car Pas s on ha nd when consultin g a
Vauxhall Authorised Repairer.
Impor tant
z Do not fit accessories not specifically
released for your vehicle type or store
objec ts in the belt tensioner operating
area (in the area of the belt tensioners)
due to the risk of injury in the event the
belt tensioners a re triggered.
z Do not make any modifications to the
components of the belt tensioners, as
this will render the vehicle unroadworthy.
z The belt tensioner and airbag system
control electronics can be found in the
centre console area. In order to avoid
malfunctions, do not store magnetic
objects in this area.
z We recommend that you have the front
seats removed by a Vauxhall Authorised
Repairer.
z The belt tensioners only actuate once.
Please replace belt tensioners that have
been triggered. We recommend that you
consult your Vauxhall Authorised
Repairer.
z Applicable safety directives must always
be ob served when disposing of the
vehicle. For this reason, disposal should
be performed by an authorised recycling
company. We recommend that you
consult your Vauxhall Authorised
Repairer.
9 Warning
Have the cause of the fault remedied. We
recommend that you consult your
Vauxhall Authorised Repairer.
9 Warning
Improper handling (e.g. removal or
installation) could cause the belt
tensioners to be triggered. Risk of injury!
79S afety systems
Using the belts
Fitting seat bel ts
Pull the belt out of the retractor and guide
it across the body, making certain that it is
not twisted.
Insert latch plate into buckle. Backrest
must not be tilted too far back as this
would affect the operation of the seat
belts; recommended tilting a ngle
approx. 25°. The lap belt must be straight
and lie snugly against the body. Tighten
lap belt at frequent intervals whilst driving
by tugging diagonal part of belt.
Bulky clothing prevents the belt from fitting
prop erly. The belt must not rest against
ha rd or fragile objects in the pockets of
your clothing (e.g. ballpoint pens, keys,
spectacles) because these could cause
injury. Do not place any objects (e.g.
ha ndbags, mobile phones) between the
belt and your body.
Height adjustment
of front seat belt upper anchorage points:
1. Pull belt out slig htly.
2. Press belt guide - or - push button down.
3. Set desired height.
4. Allow to lock audibly into position.
Do not adjust height while driving.
9 Warning
O n pregna nt wo me n in particular, the lap
belt must be positioned as low as
possible across the pelvis so as not to put
too much pressure on the abdomen.
80 Safety systems
Adjust he ight such that the belt p asses
over the shoulder and rests against the
shoulder. It must not pass over the neck or
upper arm.
Removing the belt
To remove the belt, depress the red
pushbutton on the buckle; the belt will
retract automatically.
81S afety systems
Vauxhall Full Size airbag system
The Vauxhall Full Size airbag system
comprises several individual systems.
Front a irbag sy ste m 3
The front airbag system will be triggered in
the event of a serious accident involving a
frontal impact and forms safety cushions
for the driver and front passenger. The
forward movement of the driver and front
passenger is checked and the risk of
injuries to the upper body and head
thereby substantially reduced.
Side airbag system 3
The side airbag system triggers when a
side-on collision occurs and provides a
safety barrier for the driver a nd/or
passenger in the respective front door
area. This reduces the risk of injury to the
upper body considerably in case of a side
impact.
82 Safety systems
Front airb ag
The front airbag system is identified by the
word AIRBAG on the stee ring wheel and
above the glove com partment 3.
The front airbag system comprises:
z an airbag with inflator in the steering
wheel and a second one in the
instrument panel 3,
z the control electronics with impact
se nsor,
z the airbag systems control indicator v in
the instrument panel.
The front airbag system will be triggered:
z depending on the severity of the
accident
z depending on the type of impact
z within the range shown in the illustration
z indep endently of the side airbag
system 3.
Examples of events triggering the front
airbag system:
z Impact against a non-yielding obstacle:
the front airbags are trigg ered at low
vehicle speed.
z Impact against a yielding obstacle:
(such as another vehicle): the front
airbags are only triggered at a higher
vehicle speed.
83S afety systems
When triggered, the front airbags inflate in
milliseconds to form a safety cushion for
the d river and front passenger. The
forward movement of the front seat
occupants is checked, thereby
substantially reducing the risk of injury to
the upper body and head.
No im pairment of view will occur, because
the airb ags inflate and deflate so quickly
that it is often not even noticed in an
accident.
The front airbag system will not be
triggered in the event of
z the ignition is switched off
z minor frontal collisions
z accide nts in which the vehicle overturns
z collisions involving a side or rear impact
that is to say, if it would not be of benefit to
the occupants.
9 Warning
The front airbag system provides
optimum protection when the seat,
backrest and head restraint are properly
positioned: Adjust the drivers seat
suitably to occupant’s height so that
when the driver is sitting upright, the
steering wheel is held in the area of its
upper sp ok es with the d river’s arms
slightly bent. The passenger seat should
be slid back as far as possible with the
backrest upright (see page 63). Do not
place the head, body, hands or feet on
the covers of the airbag systems.
Do not place any objects in the area in
which the airb ags inflate. Important
inform ation see page 78.
9 Warning
The three-point seat belt must be
correctly fitted – see page79.
84 Safety systems
Side airbag 3
The side airbag system is identified by the
word AIRBAG on the outboard sides of the
front seat backrests.
The side airbag system comprises:
z an airbag with inflator in the back of the
driver’s and front passenger seat
respectively
z the control electronics
z the side impact se nsors
z the airbag systems control indicator v in
the instrument panel.
The side airbag system will be triggered:
z depending on the severity of the
accident
z depending on the type of impact
z within the range shown in the illustration
on the centre door pillar of the driver’s or
front passenger side,
z independently of the front airbag
sy ste m.
9 Wa rning
Seat belts must therefore always be worn.
The front airbag system serves to
supplement the three-point seat belts. If
you do not wea r your seat belt you risk
being seriously injured, or even thrown
from the vehic le, in the event of an
accident.
In the event of an accident the belt helps
to keep you in the correct seating
position, so that the front airbag system
can provide you with effective protection.
85S afety systems
When triggered, the side airbag inflates in
milliseconds to form a safety cushion for
the d river or front passenger in the
respective door area. This substantially
reduces the risk of injury to the upper body
in the event of a side-on collision.
The side airbags will not b e triggered in the
event of
z the ignition is switched off
z frontal collisions
z accide nts in which the vehicle overturns
z collisions involving a rear impact
z collisions involving a side impact outside
the passenger cell.
9 Warning
There must be no objects in the area in
which the airb ag inflates or in the area
between the seat backs and the vehicle
body. Do not place the hand s or arms on
the covers of the airbag systems.
Important information see page 87.
The three-point seat belt must always be
correctly fitted – see page 79.
86 Safety systems

installed on the seats of the rear row 3.
On versions without rear row of seats, no
child restraint system may be installed on
the front passenger seat.
89S afety systems
Child restraint system 3
The Vauxhall child restraint system is
designed specifica lly for y our Va ux ha ll and
thus provides optimum safety for your child
in the event of impact. If a different child
safety seat is used, follow the
manufacturers’ instructions for fitting and
use.
The country in which you are driving could
require the use of child restraint systems at
specific seats. Follow all local and national
regulations.
Selec ting the right system
Your child should be transported facing
rearward in the car as long as possible.
Change the system when the height of the
child is such that the head extends over the
top of the system and is no longer
supported at eye level. The child’s cervical
vertebrae are still very weak. In the event of
an accide nt, they are subjecte d to less
stress in the semi-prone rearward position
than when upright.
Not e
z Children under 12 years of age or 150 cm
must only travel in an appropriate child
restraint system on the seats in the rear
row 3.
z When transporting children, use the child
restraint systems suitable for the child’s
weight.
z Be sure that child restraint systems are
properly installed - see the instructions
accompanying the child restraint
sy ste m.
z The covers of the Vauxhall child restraint
sy ste m can b e wipe d clean.
z Do not stick anything on the child
restraint systems and do not cover them
with any other materials.
z Only allow children to enter and exit at
the side facing away from the traffic.
z A child restraint system which has been
subjected to stress in an accident must
be replaced.

harmful ambient gases from the a ir.
Have the pollen filter replaced at the
intervals specified in the Service Booklet.
Note
If the windscreen is misted due to damp
weather, temporarily set the system as
described under "Window demisting".

Operating Easytronic with the
selector lever
Always move the selector lever all the way
in the c hosen direction. Ob serve the ge ar
or mode indicator in the transmission
display.
Selector lever in N
Neutral.
Starting the engine
The engine can only be started when the
selector lever is in N and the footbrake is
depressed. "N" appears in the transmission
display. If the footbrake is not depressed,
"N" flashes in the transmission display and
the engine will not start.
If no brake lights are op erational, the
engine will not start.
Selec tor lever in o (centre position)
After movement of the selector lever from
N to position o (centre position) while the
footbrake is depressed, Easytronic is in
autom atic m od e and first gear is engag ed.
"A" appears in the transmission display.
After the footbrake is released, the vehicle
begins to "creep". If the footbrak e is not
depressed , "A" fla shes. Start off by
immediately depressing the accelerator
pedal or move the selector lever back to N
and repeat the procedure with the
footbrake depressed.
In automatic mode, the transmission shifts
into other gears automatically based on
driving conditions.
In manual mode, a gear can be selected
manually by tapping the selector lever to
the + or - position. The transmission display
indicates the current gear.
If the engine speed is too low the Easytronic
will automatically shift to a lower gear even
in Manual mode. This prevents the engine
from stalling.
Selector lev er in + or -
+ Shift to a higher gear.
- Shift to a lower gear.
If a higher gear is selected when the
running speed is too low, or a lower gear
when the speed is too high, no shift is
effected. This prevents the engine from
running at too low or too high revs.
Gears can be skipped by jogging the
selector lever repeatedly at short intervals.
When the vehicle is in autom atic mode ,
Easytronic shifts to manual mode when the
selector lever is tapped to position + or -.
The transmission display indicates the
current gear.

transmission display will show "R".
If R is selected when the vehicle is in motion,
"R" flashes in the transmission display and
no gear is engaged.
113Easytronic
Stopping the vehicle
In automatic or manual mode, first gear
is autom atically engaged (second gear if
the Winter programme is engaged) and
the c lutch is released when the v ehicle is
stationary. In R, reverse gear remains
enga ged.
If a warning signal sounds when the
driver’s door is opened (footbrake not
depressed), move the selector lever to N
and apply the handbrake.
When stopping on gradients, engage the
handbrake or depress the brake pedal.
To prevent overheating of the clutch, do
not increase engine spe ed to ensure
smooth idling when in gear.
Switch off engine if stopping for a lengthy
period, e.g. in traffic jams or at level
crossings.
El ectronic al ly c ontroll ed driving
programmes in automatic mode
z By means of delayed gear changing
(higher eng ine speeds) following a cold
start, the operating temperature
programme quickly and automatically
brings the catalytic converter to the
temperature required for op tim um
pollutant reduction.
z Adaptive programmes automatically
adapt gear shifting to suit the driving
conditions, such as if the vehicle is
towing a caravan/trailer, has a high
payload, or is being driven on inclines.
Winter programme
In the event of difficulties starting off on
slippery roads, press button T ("A" and T
are shown in the transmission display).
Easytronic switches to automatic mode
and the vehicle sets off in second gear.
The winter program is switched off by:
z pressing button T again,
z switching to Manual mode,
z turning off the ignition.
In ord er to protect the Easytronic the winter
programme automatically switches itself
off at extremely high clutch temperatures.
114 Easytronic
Kickdown
Accelerator pedal pressed past the
pressure point: below certain speeds, the
transm ission shifts down into a lower gear.
Full engine power is available for
acceleration.
During kick down no ma nual gea r shifting is
possible.
When the engine speed a pproaches its
upper limit, the transmission shifts to a
higher gear during kickdown even in
Manual mode.
Without kickdown this automatic shift is
not effected in Manual mode.
Engine braking
Automatic mod e
When driving downhill, Easytronic does not
shift into higher gears until a fairly high
engine speed has been reached . W hen
braking, Easytronic shifts down in good
time.
Manual mode
To utilise the engine braking effe ct, sele ct a
low er gear in good time when driving
downhill.
"Rocking the car"
If it becomes necessary to rock the vehicle
to free it from sand, mud, snow or a hole,
move the selector lever between the mid
position and R in a repeat pattern while
simultaneously applying light pressure to
the accelerator pedal. Do not race the
engine and avoid sudden acceleration.
This applies only to the exceptional
circumstances mentioned a bove.
Vehicle storage
Before leaving the vehicle:
z Engage handbrake
z Remove ignition key.
The last gear engaged is retained. When
the selector lever is in position N no g ear is
eng aged.
When the ignition is switched off the
Easytronic no longer responds to
movement of the selector lever.
If the ignition key is not removed, the
battery may be discharged if the vehicle is
then left to sta nd for a lengthy period of
time.
If the handbrake has not been applied, the
control indicator R flashes for a few
seconds after the ignition is switched off.
115Easytronic
Manoeuvring the vehicle
To manoeuvre the vehicle back and forth
during attem pts to park or in garage
entrances the creeping movement can be
utilised by releasing the footbrake.
Never actuate accelerator and brake
pedals simultaneously.
To prevent dam age, Easytronic
disengages the "creep function" when the
temperature of the automatic clutch is
high.
Fa ult
If a fault occurs in Easytronic, control
indica tor A illuminates. In the event of
serious faults, an "F" also appears in the
transmission display.
It is possible to continue driving if only
control indicator A illum inates. Manual
mode can then no longer be selected.
If an "F" is also shown in the transmission
display, it is not possible to continue
driving.
Have the cause of the fault remedied.
We recommend that you consult your
Vauxhall Authorised Repairer. The
system’s integrated self-diagnostics allows
faults to be quickly remedied.
Interruption of power supply
The clutch is not disengaged if the vehicle
battery is discharged and a gea r has been
sele cted. The ve hicle c annot m ove.
If the battery is flat, start the vehicle using
jump leads – see page 144.
116 Easytronic
If the c ause of the interruption to the p ow er
supply is not the discharged battery,
consult a workshop. We recommend your
Vauxhall Authorised Repairer. If the vehicle
has to be removed from moving traffic,
release clutch as follows:
1. Ap ply handbrake and switch off ignition.
2. Open bonnet and engage support.
3. Clean Easytronic around the cap
(see figure) so that no dirt can get into
the opening when the cap is removed .
4. Rotate cap to slacken and remove by
lifting upwards – see figure.
5. Turn the adjusting screw clockwise using
a flat-head screwdriver (vehicle tools 3
see page 151) until clear resistance can
be felt. The clutch has now been
disengaged.
Do not turn beyond the resistance, since
this can damage the Easytronic.
6. Fit cleaned cap again. The cap m ust be
in full conta ct with the housing.
Towing the vehicle and starting the engine
is not permitted when the clutch has been
released in this way, although the vehicle
can be moved a short distance.
Consult a workshop immediately.
We recommend your Vauxhall Authorised
Repairer.
117Drivin g hints
Driving hints
The first 600 miles (1000 km)
Drive your vehicle at various speed s. Do
not use full throttle. Never allow the engine
to labour at low revs.
Make good use of all gears. Depress the
accelerator pedal a maximum of around
three quarters of the available pedal travel
in all gears.
Do not drive faster than three quarters of
maximum speed.
Do not b rake unnec essarily ha rd for the
first 125 miles (200 km).
Never coast with engine not
run ning
Many units w ill not function in this situation
(e.g. brake servo unit, power steering 3).
Driving in this manner is a danger to
yourself and others.
Brake servo unit
When the engine is not running, the brake
servo unit is no longer effective once the
brake pedal has been depressed once or
twice. Braking effect is not reduced, but
significantly greater force is required for
braking.
Electric power-assisted steering 3
If the power-assisted steering fails when
being towed with the engine switched off
the vehicle can still be steered, but
considera bly more force is required.
Ca ravan/trailer towing
Driving in mountainous terrain or
with a trailer/caravan
The cooling fan is electrically operated. Its
cooling power is therefore independent of
the engine spe ed.
Since a considerable amount of heat is
generated at high engine speeds and less
at slower speeds, do not shift down when
climb ing hills whilst the vehic le is still coping
with the gradient in the hig her gear.
Diesel engines: On gradients of 10% or
more, do not drive faster than 20 mph
(30 km/h) in first gear or 30 mph (50 km/h)
in second gear.
Driving with a roof load
Do not exceed the permissible roof load
see page 202. For reasons of safety,
distribute the loa d evenly a nd secure it
properly with retaining straps so that it
can not s lip . Adjust ty re p re s sure to th e
load c onditions. Do not drive faster than
75 mph (120 km/h). Check and retighten
the straps frequently.
Switching off the engine
When you switch off, fans in the engine
compa rtment may continue running for a
time to cool the engine.
If the engine temperature is very high, e.g.
after driving in mountainous terrain: allow
the engine to idle for approximately two
minutes in order to prevent heat
accumulation.
118 Drivin g hints
Vehicles with turbocharged engine
After running at hig h engine speeds or high
engine loads, operate the engine briefly
at a low load or run in neutral for approx.
30 seconds before switching off in order to
protect the turbocharger.
Save energy more miles
Please observe the running-in hints on the
previous page and the tips for saving
energy on the following pages.
Good, technically correct and economical
driving ensures maximum durability and
performance for your vehicle.
Overrun
The fuel supply is autom atically shut off
during overrun, e.g. when the vehicle is
being driven down long gradients or when
braking. To enable the overrun cut-off to
take effect, do not accelerate during
overrun and, if in manual transmission
mode, do not depress clutch pedal. To
prevent damage to the catalytic converter,
overrun cut-off is temporarily deactivated
when the catalytic converter temperature
is high.
Vehicles with turbocharged engine
Flow -g enerated noises may be aud ible if
the accelerator is released quickly on
account of air flow in the turbocharger.
Engine speed
Drive in a low engine spee d range for each
gear as much as possible.
Warm ing up
Allow the engine to warm up while driving.
Do not warm it up by letting it run at idling
speed. Do not apply full throttle until the
engine has reached operating
temperature.
Following a cold start, the Easytronic 3
does not shift into the higher gears until a
fairly high engine speed has been reached.
This ensures that the catalytic converter
quickly attains the temperature required
for optimum pollutant reduction.
Correct gear selection
Do not race your engine whilst in neutral or
with a low gear selected. Driving too fast in
individua l gears as well as stop-and-g o
traffic increases engine wear and fuel
consumption.
Change down
When decreasing speed, shift down into
the next lowest gear. Do not slip the clutch
with a high-revving engine. This is
especially important when hill climb ing.
Clutch operation
Always depress the clutch pedal hard to
the floor to prevent shifting difficulties and
transmission damage.
When driving do not use the pedal as a
foot rest; this will cause substantial clutch
wear.
Cooling fan
The cooling fan is controlled via a
thermoswitch and therefore only runs if
necessary.
The cooling fan a utomatically switches on
when the diesel particle filter is being
cleaned 3 depending on the engine.
Pedals
Do not place any objects in the foot well
which could slip under the pedals and
inhibit the pedal travel.
To ensure the pedal travel is uninhibited,
there must be no mats in the area of the
pedals.
Battery care
When driving slowly or when the vehicle is
stationary, e.g. in slow urban traffic, stop-
and-go traffic or traffic jams, turn off all
unnecessary electrical loads where
possible (e.g. heated rear window, heated
front se ats, etc.).
Depress clutch pedal when sta rting in order
to relieve the strain on the starter and the
battery.
119Saving Fuel, Protecting the Environment
Saving Fuel, Protecting

Trend-setting technology
When developing and manufacturing your
vehicle, Vauxhall used environment-
friendly and in the m ain recycla ble
materials. The production methods used to
mak e y our vehicle are likewise
environmentally-compatible.
Recycling of production wastes keeps the
circulation of material closed. Reduction of
energy and water requirements also helps
to conserve natural resources.
A highly advanced design means that your
vehicle can be easily disassembled at the
end of its working life, and the individual
materials se parated for subsequent re-use.
Materia ls such as asbestos and cadmium
are not used . The refrigerant in the air
conditioning system 3 is CFC-free.
New painting techniques employ water as
a solvent.
End-of-life vehicle recovery

www.vauxhall.co.uk/recycling for details.
Energy and environment-
conscious driving
z High noise levels and exhaust emissions
are often a result of driving without due
attention to saving energy and
protecting the environment.
z You should therefore drive with energy in
mind "more miles with less fuel".
Reduce the noise level and exhaust
emissions by adopting an environment-
conscious driving style. This is extremely
worthwhile and improves the quality of
life.
Fuel consumption depends to a great
extent on your own personal driving
style. The following hints are intended to
help you consume fuel at a rate that is as
close as possible to the specified levels
see page 200.
Check your vehicles fuel consumption
every time you refuel. This facilitates
early detection of any irregularities
causing increased fuel consumption.
Warming up
z Full throttle and w arming up at idle
speed increase wear, fuel consumption,
ex haust em ission, the am ount of
pollutant in the exhaust and the amount
of noise.
z Drive off imm ediately after starting.
Warm up the engine by running it at
moderate engine speeds.
Uniform speed
z Hectic driving significantly increases fuel
consumption, the exhaust emissions, the
proportion of pollutant in the exhaust
gas and the noise level.
z Do not accelerate and brake
unnecessarily. Drive at uniform speed,
watching the road.
Avoid frequent starting off and stopping
e.g. at traffic lights, in short distance
traffic and in queues of traffic by means
of clever planning. Select roads with
good traffic flow.
Idling
z The engine also consumes fuel when
idling .
z If you have to wait for more than one
minute, it is worthwhile switching off
the engine. Five minutes of idling
corresponds to approximately one
kilometre of driving.
120 Saving Fuel, Protecting 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
when braking – see page 118.
z To enable the overrun cut-off to come
into action and save fuel, do not
accelerate or depress clutch pedal
during overrun.
Correct gear selection
z High revs increase engine wear and fuel
consumption.
z Do not race your engine. Avoid driving at
high engine speeds.
Making use of the tachometer helps to
save fuel. Drive in a low engine speed
range for each gear as much as possible
with uniform engine speeds. Drive as
often as possible in top gear, select the
next higher gear as soon as possible,
and only change down when the engine
is no longer running perfectly smoothly.
High speed
z The higher the speed, the higher the
consumption and the noise level. At top
speed, you consume a great deal of fuel
and produce excessive noise and
exhaust emissions.
z Slightly releasing the accelerator ped al
results in distinct fuel savings with no
major loss of speed.
Drive at no more than around three
quarters of maximum speed and you will
use up to 50% less fuel, without losing a
great deal of time.
Tyre pressure
z Inadequate tyre pressure, leading to
higher road resistance, costs money in
two ways: for more fuel and increased
tyre wear.
z Regular checks (every 14 days) pay off.
Electrica l loads
z The power consumption of electrical
equipment increases fuel consumption.
z Switch off all auxiliary electrical loads
(e.g. air conditioning 3, heated rear
window) when not needed.
Roof racks
z Due to air resistance, a roof load
can increase fuel consumption by
approx. 3.5 gal./1000 miles (1 l/100 km).
z Remove them if they are not being used.
Repair and maintenance
z Improper repairs or adjustment and
maintenance work can increase fuel
consumption. Do not carry out work on
the engine yourself.
You may out of ignorance infringe
environmental laws by not disposing of
materials properly.
Appropriate parts might not be recycled.
Contact with some of the materia ls
involved may pose a health hazard.
z We recommend that repair and
maintenance be entrusted to your
Vauxhall Authorised Repairer.
Extreme driving conditions
z Going up steep slopes, cornering, driving
on poor roads and winter driving all
increase fuel consumption.
Fuel consumption increases dramatically
in urba n tra ffic a nd at winter
temperatures, especially on short trips
when the e ngine operating tempera ture
is not reached.
z Follow the hints given above to keep
consumption to a minimum under such
conditions.
121Fuel consumption, fuel, refuelling
Fuel consumption,
fuel, refuelling
Fuel consumption
Fuel consumption is determined under
specific driving conditions see page 200.
Special equipment increases the weight of
the vehicle. As a result, they can increase
fuel consumption and reduce the specified
maximum speed.
There is increased friction b etween engine
and transmission parts during the first
600 miles (1000 kilometres). This increases
fuel consumption.
Fuel for petrol engines
Commercially available high-quality fuel
with a maximum ethanol content of 5% as
per DIN EN 228 (catalytic converter - see
pag e 124, octane numb ers - see page 198).
Fuel quality has a decisive influenc e on
power output, running behaviour and
service life of the engine. The additives
contained in the fue l pla y an important role
in this regard. You should therefore only
use high-quality fuels containing additives.
Fuels with ethanol content greater than 5%
do not comply with DIN EN 228 and must
not be used unless the vehicle has been
specifically developed and approved for
use of such.
Fuel with too low an octane number can
cause pinking. Vauxhall cannot be held
liable for resulting damage.
Petrol with a higher octane number can
always be used.
Pump nozzles for leaded fuel cannot be
inserted into the filler neck of vehicles that
operate on unlead ed fuel.
The ignition timing is automatically
adjusted according to the grad e of fuel
used (octane number) – see page 198.
Use of petrol with an octane rating of 95
will ensure economical driving.

Fuel for diesel engines
Diesel engines must be operated only on
commercially available diesel fuel meeting
the specifications of DIN EN 590.
Since January 2004, some oil companies
have mixe d their diesel fuel with up to 5%
Bio fuel (FAME = Fatty Acid Methyl Esters)
like RME (Rape-Oil Methyl Ester). This is in
accordance with the current DIN EN 590
and does not harm the fuel/injection
system. The characteristics of a diesel fuel
mixed up with 5% Bio fuel (FAME) do not
differ from conventional diesel fuel and do
not influence the vehicles driveability.
Im portant : Diesel fuel mixed with 5% FAME
according to DIN EN 590 must not be
confused with 100% Bio Diesel, which is not
to be used in Vauxhall engines.
The flow and filterability of diesel fuel are
tem perature-d epend ent.
Diesel fuels with improved low temperature
properties are therefore available on the
market during the winter months. Make
sure that you fill the tank with winter fuel
before the start of the cold weather
season.
Additives can be used with diesel fuels with
winter properties that are guaranteed by
the manufacturer and when using diesel
fuel filters that are heated depending on
the outside temperature.
Diesel fuels must not be diluted with fuels
that are intended for petrol engines.

a genuine Vauxhall fuel filler cap for your
model to ensure full functionality. Diesel-
engined vehicles have special fuel filler
caps.
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 de tected
by its characteristic smell. If you can smell
fuel in the ve hicle, ha ve the cause thereof
remedied immediately. We recommend
that you consult your Vauxhall
Authorised Repairer.

Fuel filler neck at right rear side of vehicle.
With a central locking system 3, the tank
flap is unlocked together with the doors 3 -
see page 51.
Open the tank flap. To prevent damage,
the right-hand sliding door cannot be fully
opened if the tank flap is open.
Unlock the fuel filler cap with the ignition
key 3, unscrew and suspend from tank
flap.
The fuel tank has a limiting system which
prevents overfilling of the tank.
Correct filling depends to a larg e extent on
proper operation of the fuel dispensing
pump:
1. Fully insert the pump nozzle and switch
it on.
2. After the automatic cut-off, the nominal
capacity of the fuel tank can be
obtained by topping up with two doses
of fuel. Make sure the nozzle is fully
inserted.
To close, place fuel filler cap in position and
turn, overcoming the resistance until the
ratchet on the cap engages audibly. Lock
the fuel filler cap with the ignition key 3.
Close fuel tank cover.
Wipe off any overflowing fuel immedia tely.

Leaded fuel will damage the catalytic
converter and parts of the electronic
system, rendering them inoperative.
Use of high-quality fuels other than those
specified on page 121 (e.g. LRP
1)
) could
damage the catalytic converter.
On vehicles with a catalytic converter, the
fuel tank filler nec k is of a narrow design so
that a dispensing pump for leaded fuel
cannot be inserted.
Damage to the catalytic converter or the
vehicle may result if the follow ing points
are not observed:
z Consult a workshop, such as your
Vauxhall Authorised Repairer, as quickly
as possible in the event of misfiring,
irregular engine running following a cold
start, a significant loss of engine power
or other unusual malfunctions which
may indicate a fault in the ignition
sy ste m. If necessary, d riv ing may be
continued for a short time at a low speed
and with a low engine speed.
z If unburned fuel enters the catalytic
converter, this may result in overheating
and irreparable damage to the catalytic
converter.
You should therefore avoid
unnecessarily long use of the starter
when starting off, running the tank dry
(an irregular fuel supply will lead to
overheating) and starting the engine by
pushing or towing.
z If the emission control indicator Z
flashes, slow down until the flashing
stops and the control indicator is steady .
Contact a w orkshop immediately. We

Controlling exhaust emission
Through design-related measures mainly
in the area of the fuel-injection and ignition
sy ste ms – the prop ortion of noxious
materials in the exhaust, such as carbon
monoxide (CO), hydrocarbons (HC) and
nitrogen oxides (NO
x
), is reduced to a
minimum.
C ontrol indic ator Z for exhaust
Illuminates when the ignition is switched on
and during the start attempt. Goes off
shortly after the engine starts running.
If it illuminates while the engine running
there is a fault in the emission control
system. The permitted emission values may
be exceeded. Consult a workshop
immediately. We recommend your
Vauxhall Authorised Repairer.
126 Catalytic converter, exhaust gases
Flashing with the engine running indicates
a fault that may damage the catalytic

without causing damage b y slowing down
until the flashing stops and the control
indicator is steady. Consult a workshop
immediately. We recommend your
Vauxhall Authorised Repairer.
Control i nd icator A for engine
elect ronics
Illum inate s for a few se conds whe n ignition

If it comes on when the engine is running,
there is a fault in the engine or transmission
electronics. The electronics switch to the
emergency running programme, fuel
consumption may increase and the
driveab ility of the vehicle may be affecte d.
In some cases, the fault can be elim inated
by switching the engine off and back on
again. If the control indicator illuminates
again when the engine is running, consult a
workshop to have the cause of the fault
remedied. We recommend your Vauxhall
Authorised Repairer.
If it illuminates briefly, but does not recur, it
is of no significance.
Illumination of A can also indicate water
in the diesel fuel filter 3. H ave the fuel filter
checked for water - see page 184. We
recommend that you consult your Vauxhall
Authorised Repairer.
If it flashes after the ignition is switched on,
there is a fault in the im mobilizer system.
The engine c annot be started -
see page 45.
127Catalytic converter, exhaust gases
Exhaust gases
During the first drive smoke may develop
because of wax and oil evaporating on the
exhaust system. Park the vehicle in the
open for a while after the first drive and
avoid inhaling the fum es.
Diesel pa rticle filter 3
The diesel particle system filters polluting
soot particles out of the exhaust.
The system contains a self-cleaning
function at certain intervals. The filter is
cleaned by burning the soot pa rticles at
high temperature. This procedure runs
automatically under certain vehicle
conditions and can take up to 25 minutes,
during which time fuel consumption may
increase. The smell and the noise that
occur are normal.
The system cannot automatically clean
itself under certain vehicle conditions such
as driving short distances.
If the control indicator ! flashes, you
should continue driving and as soon as the
road and traffic situation permits.
Increase speed to more than 25 mph
(40 km/h) and diesel particle filter cleaning
will start. Cleaning is quicker at faster
speeds and under load. The engine speed
should not drop below 2000 rpm. The
control indicator goes off as soon as
cleaning is complete.
We recommend that you do not turn the
ignition off during cleaning.
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. This way you can be
certain that all components of the vehicle’s
electrical, injection and ignition systems
operate correctly, that your vehicle has a
low level of pollutant emission and that the
catalytic converter system will have a long
service life.
You are thereby making an im portant
contribution towards keeping the air clean
and com pliance with emissions legislation.
Checking and adjustment of the fuel-
injection and ignition systems is part of the
scope of inspection. For this reason you
should have all maintenance work carried
out at the intervals specified in your Service
Booklet.
9 Wa rning
Engine exhaust gases contain poisonous
carbon monoxide, which is c olourless and
odourless and could be fatal if inhaled.
If exhaust fumes penetrate the vehicle
interior, open the windows and consult a
workshop immediately. We recomm end
your Vauxhall Authorised Repairer.
128 Brakes
Brakes
Brake system
The brakes are an important factor for
traffic safety.
To improve effectiveness, do not brake
unnecessarily hard for the first 125 miles
(200 km) after new brake pads have been
fitted.
Brake pad wear must not exceed a
specified limit. Regular maintenance as
detailed in the Service Booklet is therefore
of the utmost importance for traffic safety.
Have worn brake pads replaced.
We recommend that you consult your
Vauxhall Authorised Repairer, who will fit
pads that have been tested and approved
by Vauxhall and guarantee optimum
braking power.
Brake pads worn to their minimum
thickness generate a grinding noise.
Continued driving possible. Have the brake
pads replaced as soon as possible by a
workshop. We recommend your Vauxhall
Authorised Repairer.
Brake system ..................... ................... 128
Anti-lock brake system (ABS u) 3.... 131
129Brakes
Brak e assist
When the brake peda l is q uick ly and
forcefully depressed, the vehicle is
automatically braked with ma ximum b ra ke
force amplification in order to obtain the
shortest possible braking distance during
full-on braking (brake assist).
Maintain steady pressure on the brak e
pedal for as long as full-on braking is to
continue. When the brake ped al is
released, the maximum brake force
amplification is taken away.
Footbrake
The footbrake comprises two independent
brake circuits.
If a brake circuit fails, the vehicle can still be
braked using the other brake circuit. If this
occurs, however, the brake pedal must be
depressed quite far using considerable
force before braking effect occurs.
The distance required for braking will be
greater. Consult a workshop before
continuing your journey. We recommend
your Vauxhall Authorised Repairer.
To ensure the full pedal travel can be
utilized, esp ecially in case of a fault in one
of the brake circuits, there must be no mats
in the vicinity of the pedals see page 117.
When the engine is not running, the
support of the brake servo unit disappears
once the brake peda l has been depressed
once or twice. Braking effect is not reduced,
but braking requires significantly greater
force. This is especially important to bear in
mind when towing.
Check the brak e lights before sta rting out
on a journe y.
Shortly after starting each journey the
effectiveness of the brake system should
be tested at low speed and without
inconveniencing other traffic, especially if
the brakes are wet, e.g. after the vehicle
has been washed.
The brake fluid level should be checked
regularly. If the brake fluid level is too low
and the handbrake is not applied, control
indicator R on the instrument panel
illuminates - see page 26.
130 Brakes
Handbrake
Always apply handbrake firmly. On slopes
apply the handbrake as firmly as possible.
The mechanical handbrake acts on the
brakes on the rea r wheels. It engag es
automatically when applied.
To release the handbrake pull the lever up
slightly, press the ratchet knob, and fully
lower the lever.
In order to reduce the handbrake
operational forces, depress the footbrake
at the same time.
Brake system control indicator R
The control indicator illuminates when the
ignition is switched on if the handbra ke is
applied or if the brake or clutch fluid level is
too low. Brake fluid - see page 186.
9 Warning
If the control indicator illumina tes when
the handbrake is not applied: Stop.
Interrupt your journey immediately.
Consult a workshop. We recommend your
Vauxhall Authorised Repairer.
131Brakes
A nti-lock brake sy stem (A BS u) 3
The ABS continually monitors the brake
system and prevents the wheels from
locking, regardless of the road conditions
and tyre grip.
It starts to regulate the braking p ressure as
soon as a wheel shows a tendency to lock.
The v ehicle remains steera ble, even in the
event of very heavy braking, for instance
on bends or when sw erving to av oid an
obstacle. Even in the case of full-on
braking, the ABS makes it p ossible to drive
round an obstacle without releasing the
brakes.
ABS control is made app arent though a
pulse in the brake pedal and the noise of
the regulation process.
Control i nd icator u for ABS
The control indicator illuminates for several
se cond s w hen the ignition is switche d on
and the system undergoes a self-check at
the same time (may be audible). The
system is ready for operation when the
control indicator goes out.
If the control indicator does not go out
after a few sec onds, or if it illuminates while
driving, there is a fault in the ABS. The
brake system rem ains operational without
AB S reg ulation .
You can continue driving, provided you
drive with care and anticipation.
Have the cause of the fault remedied. We
recommend that you consult your Vauxhall
Authorised Repa ire r. The system’s
integrated self-diagnostics allows faults to
be quickly remedied .
9 Wa rning
For optimum b raking, 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.
Do not let this special safety feature
tempt you into taking risks when driving.
Traffic safety can only be achieved by
adopting a responsib le driving style.
9 Warning
If there is a fault in ABS, the whee ls may
be subject to locking due to braking that
is heavier than normal. The ad vantages
of ABS are no longer operational. The
vehicle can no longer be steered and may
swe rve.

Tyres
See pag e 205 for suitable tyres and
re s trictio n s.
Tyres fitted in the factory are adapted to
the chassis and provide optimum driving
comfort and safety.
Changing tyre/wheel type
Before switching to different tyres or
wheels, seek advice on the technical
possibilities. We recommend that you
consu lt y our Va ux ha ll Authorised Re pairer,
who will be able to advise you of any
necessary modifications.
If tyres of a different size than those fitted
at the factory are used, the electronic
speedometer may require reprogramming
to ensure that the correct speed is
displayed.
Fitti ng new tyres
Fit tyres in pairs or in sets, which is even
better. Ensure that tyres on one axle are
z the same size
z the same design
z the same make
z and have the same tread pattern.
Fit directional tyres such that they roll in the
direction of travel. The rolling direction is
indicated by a symbol (e.g. an arrow) on
the sidewall.
Tyres fitted opposing the rolling direction
(such as when changing a tyre) should be
refitted as soon as possible. This is the only
way to benefit fully from the design
properties of the tyre.

9 Warning
Use of unsuitable tyres or wheels may
lead to accidents and render the vehicle
unroadworthy.
9 Warning
We recommend that you have your tyres
changed by your Vauxhall Authorised
Repairer, who will be familiar with the
requirem ents of the law a s regards
disposal of tyres and can thus help to
protect the environment and your health.
133Wheels, tyres
Some brands of tyres have a beaded edge
for alloy wheels to protect against
damage. If wheel trim is used on steel
wheels with bead ed-edge tyres, c om ply
with the following:
z The use of wheel trims and tyres that
Vauxhall has approved for the vehicle
and therefore fulfill all requirements for
the relevant combination of wheels and
ty res.
z If the wheel trims and tyres used are not
Vauxhall-approved, the tyres must not
have a beaded edge.
Tyre pressure
Check tyre pressure, including the spare
wheel, at least every 14 days and prior to
any long journey; the tyres should be
checked when cold. Dont forget to check
the spare 3.
Use the valv e cap key to make unscrewing
the valve caps easier. The key is located on
the inside of the tank flap.
Tyre pressure see pages 205, 206.
Do not reduce tyre pressure when the tyres
are wa rm. Otherwise the pressure may
drop below the perm issible minimum when
the tyres cool down.
After having checked the tyre pressure,
tighten the valve caps using the valve cap
key.
Incorrect inflation pressures will impair
safety, vehicle handling, comfort and fuel
economy and will increase tyre wear.
Pressure that is too low can result in
consid erable tyre warm-up and internal
damage, leading to tread separation and
even to tyre blow-out at high speeds.
Hidden tyre damage is not eliminated by
adjusting the tyre pressure.
9 Wa rning
Use of unsuitable tyres or wheel trims
could lead to sudden loss of air and
thereby accidents.
9 Warning
Incorrect ty re pressure could lead to a flat
tyre.
134 Wheels, tyres
Tyre condition, wheel condition
Drive over edges slowly and at a right
angle if p ossible. Driving over sharp edge s
can lead to hidden tyre damage and wheel
damage which is only noticed later on.
When pa rking, ensure that the tyres a re not
pressed against the edge of the kerb.
Check tyres regularly for damage (foreign
bodies, punctures, cuts, crack s, bulg es in
sidewalls). Check wheels for damage. In
the event of damage or abnormal wear,
consult a workshop. We recommend your
Vauxhall Authorised Repairer.
Tread depth
Check tread depth regularly.
If wear in the front is greater than that in
the rear, switch the front wheels with the
rear ones.
Correct tyre pressure.
For reasons of safety, tyres should be
replaced when their tread de pth has worn
down to 2 to 3 mm (winter tyres: 4 mm).
9 Warning
Dama ge may lead to tyre blow-out.
135Wheels, tyres
The legally permissible minimum tread
depth (1.6 mm) has been reached when
the tread has worn down as far as one of
the wear indicators (TWI
1)
). A number of
wear indicators are spaced at equal
intervals around the tyre within the tread.
Their position is indicated by markings on
the tyre sidewall.
General i nformation
z The danger of aquaplaning is greater if
the tyres are worn.
z Tyres age, even if they are used only very
little or not at all. A spare wheel which
has not been used for six years should be
used only in emergencies; drive slowly
when using such tyres.
z Never fit used tyres the previous history
and use of which you do not know.
z So as not to impair brake cooling, use
only wheel trims approved for use on
your vehicle.

a notice indicating the maximum
permissible speed for the tyres must be
affixed within the driver’s field of vision
1)
.
Use of a spare wheel fitted with a summer
tyre may affect the vehicle’s driveability,
especially on slippery road surfaces.
Obtain a replacem ent for the faulty tyre as
soon as possible, and have the wheel
balanced and fitted to the vehicle.
Wheel trims 3
If the wheel trims and tyres used are not
Vauxhall-approved, make sure that the
tyres do not have a beaded edge -
see p age 133.
Tyre chains 3
See page 205 for restrictions.
Tyre chains are only permitted on the front
wheels. They must be fitted to the tyres
symm etrically in order to achieve a
concentric fit.
Always use fine mesh chains that add no
more than 10 mm to the tyre tread and the
inboard sides (including chain lock).
We recommend that you consult your
Vauxhall Authorised Repairer.

see page 152.
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 ma y be
used for brief periods only since they are
subject to rapid wear on a hard road and
may snap .
Tem porary spare wheel 3
Tyre chains must not be used on the
temporary spare wheel. If you need to use
tyre chains after suffering a flat front tyre,

Caravan and trailer loads
1)
The permissible caravan/trailer loads are
vehicle and engine depend ent maximum
values w hich must not be ex ceeded . The
actual c aravan/trailer load is the difference
between the actual gross weight of the
caravan/trailer and the actual coupling
socket load with the caravan/trailer
coupled. When the c aravan/trailer load is
being checke d, therefore, only the
caravan/trailer wheels and not the jockey
wheel – must be standing on the weighing
appara tus.
The permissible caravan/trailer loads for
your vehicle are given in the vehicle
documents. Unless otherwise stated, they
are valid for gradients up to max. 12%.
The permissible caravan/trailer load should
be fully utilised only by drivers who are
adequately experienced in towing large or
heavy caravans/trailers.
The permitted caravan/trailer load applies
up to the specified incline and up to an
altitude of 1000 metres above sea level.
Since engine power decreases as altitude
increases because of the air becoming
thinner, therefore reducing climbing ability,
the permitted towing weight also decreases
by 10% for every 1000 metres of additional
altitude. The towing weight does not have
to be reduced when driving on roads with
slight inclines (less than 8%, e. g.
motorways).
The actual caravan/trailer load plus the
actual gross vehicle weight of the towing
vehicle must not exceed the maximum
permitted towing weight. For example, if
the permitted gross vehicle weight is
utilised, the trailer/caravan load must only
be used until the maximum perm itted
tow ing weight is reached. The maximum
permitted towing weight is shown on the
identification plate see page 196.
Coupling socket load
The coupling socket load is the load
exerted by the trailer/caravan on the
coupling ball. It can be varied by changing
the weight distribution when loading the
trailer/caravan.
The maximum permissible coupling socket
load (50 kg) is specified on the towing
equipment identification plate and in the
vehicle documents. Always aim for the
maximum load, especially in the case of
heavy caravans/trailers. The coupling
socket load should never fall below 25 kg.
When measuring the coupling socket load ,
make sure that the drawbar of the loaded
trailer/caravan is at the same height as it
will be when the trailer/caravan is coupled
with the towing vehicle loaded. Particularly
important for trailers/caravans with
tandem axle.
Rear axle load during towing
The permissible axle loads must not be
exceeded.
1)
Observe national regulations.
140 Roof racks, Caravan and trailer towing
Tyre pressure
Increase tyre pressure on the towing
vehicle to the value specified for a full load
(see pages 205, 206). Also check the
inflation pressure of the spare wheel and
the caravan/trailer wheels.
Drivin g charac teristics, towing
tips
For caravans/trailers with b ra ke, attach the
break-a way stop ping ca ble to the eye (see
arrow in figure).
Before attaching the trailer/caravan,
lubricate the ball of the trailer/caravan
tow ing device. How ever, do not lubricate
the ball if a stabiliser, which acts on the
coupling b all, is being used to damp
hunting.
Check caravan/trailer lighting before
starting to drive. The fog tail lights on the
vehicle are deactivated when towing a
caravan or trailer.
Caravans/trailers with LED turn signals
must have a provision that makes it
possible to monitor standard light bulbs.
Turn signal control indicator - see page 25.
Handling is greatly influenced by the
loading of the trailer/caravan. Loads
should therefore be secured so that they
cannot slip and be placed in the centre of
the tra iler/ca ravan if possible, i.e. above
the axle.
In the case of trailers with low driving
stability, do not exceed a sp eed of 50 mph
(80 km/h); the use of a friction-type
stabiliser is highly recomm ended.
Do not drive faster than 50 mph (80 km/h)
if possible, even in countries where higher
speeds are permitted.
141Roof racks, Caravan and trailer towing
Make sure that y ou hav e enough room
when cornering and avoid sudden
manoeuvres.
If the trailer/caravan starts to sway, drive
more slowly, do not attempt to correct the
steering and brake sharply if necessary.
If full-on braking is required, depress the
brake pedal as hard as possib le.
Remember that the braking distance for
vehicles towing caravans/trailers with and
without brake is always greater than that
for vehicles not towing a caravan/trailer.
When driving downhill, towing a caravan/
trailer subjects the brakes to a heavier load
than normal. For this reason, select the
same gear as when driving uphill and drive
at a similar speed.
Easytronic 3 in automatic mode will
automatically select the driving
prog ramme with optimum eng ine braking
effect.
The cooling fan is electrically operated. Its
cooling power is therefore independent of
the engine spe ed.
Since a considerable amount of heat is
generated at high engine speeds and less
at slower speeds, do not shift down when
climb ing hills whilst the vehic le is still coping
with the gradient in the hig her gear.
Diesel engine: On gradients of 10% or
more, do not drive faster than 20 mph
(30 km/h) in first gear or 30 mph (50 km/h)
in second gear.
142 Roof racks, Caravan and trailer towing
Starting on inclines
For vehicles with manual transmission, the
most favourable engine speed when
starting off on an incline is between 2500
and 3000 rpm for petrol engines and
between 2000 and 2500 rpm for diesel
engines. Hold engine speed constant,
enga ge clutch gradually (let slip), release
handbrake and open throttle. If possible,
the engine speed should not drop during
this procedure.
For vehicles with Easytronic 3, it is
sufficient to apply full throttle when in
automatic mode.
Before starting off under extreme
conditions (high combination weight,
mountainous terrain with steep inclines),
switch off all unnecessary electrical loads
such as heated rear window, air
conditioning system 3 and heated front
se ats 3.

180 Maintenance, Inspection System
Maintenance,
Inspection System
In order to guarantee econom ical and safe
vehicle operation and to maintain the
value of your vehicle, it is of vital
importance that all maintenance work is
carried out at the proper intervals as
specified by Vauxhall.
On vehicles with fixed oil change and
service interval, InSP appears in the trip
odometer display after the ignition is
switched on when it is time for servicing:
Have service work carried out within one
week or 300 miles (500 km). We
recommend that you consult your Vauxhall
Authorised Repairer.
The service interval display takes account
of off-the-road periods during which the
battery is disconnected.
For vehicles with flexible oil change and
service internval, the interval is determined
by several para meters stemming from how
the vehicle is used. For this purpose,
various engine-specific data is continually
recorded in order to calculate the
remaining distance before the next service.
The remaining distance can be shown on
the trip od om eter display when the ignition
is off: Press the reset button for the trip
odometer for 2 seconds. InS P and the
remaining distance are then displayed.
If the remaining distance is less than
1000 miles (1,500 km), InS P is displayed
with a remaining distance of 600 miles
(1,000 km) after the ignition is switched on
and off. InSP is displayed for several
seconds if the remaining distance is less
than 600 miles (1,000 km). Have the
necessary service work carried out within
one week or 300 miles (500 km). Entrust this
work to a Vauxhall Authorised Repairer in
order to avoid loss of warranty claims.

181Maintenance, Inspection System
Further information on maintenance and
the inspection system can be found in the
service booklet, which is in the glove
compartment.
Have maintenance work, as well as repairs
to the bodywork and units, carried out by a
professional. We recommend your
Vauxhall Authorised Repairer, who is
familiar with Vauxhall vehicles and in
possession of the necessary special tools
and the latest service instructions from
Vauxhall. In order to avoid invalidation of
any warranty claim, it is especially
important to entrust work to a Vauxhall
Authorised Repairer during the warranty
period. For further information, see the
Service Booklet.
Separ ate anti-cor rosion service
Have this service performed once a year,
either as part of an Annual Inspection or
separately; see Service Booklet. To avoid
invalidation of any warranty claim against
rust-through, we recommend that you
consult your Vauxhall Authorised Repairer.
A note on safety
Alw ays switch ignition off when perform ing
checks in the engine c om partment
(e.g. checking the brake fluid level or the
engine oil level) due to risk of injury from
live cables and rotating parts.
Never carry out any repairs or adjustment
and maintenance work on the vehicle
yourself. This especially applies to the
eng ine, chassis and safety parts. You may
unwittingly infringe the provisions of the
law and, by not performing the work
properly, endanger yourself and other
road users.
Checking and topping u p fluids
To aid identification, the caps used when
topping up engine oil, coolant and wash
fluid as well as the oil dipstick are coloured
yellow.
9 Warning
The cooling fan is controlled by a
thermoswitch and ca n therefore start
unexpectedly even if the ignition is
switched off. Risk of injury.
Electronic ignition systems generate very
high voltages. Do not touch the ignition
system; high voltage can be fatal.
182 Maintenance, Inspection System
Engine oil
Information on engine oils is found in the
Service Booklet.
Eng ine oil level and consum ption
All engines consume engine oil for
technical reasons. The engine oil
consumption can only be assessed after
driving a long distance, and may be above
the specified value during the initial stage
(run-in period). Frequent driving at high
revs causes engine oil consumption to
increase.
Engine oil level check,
topping up engine oil
The engine oil level must be checked with
the vehicle horizontal and with the engine
(which must be at operating temperature)
switched off. Wait at least five minutes
before checking the level to allow the
normal engine oil accumulation in the
engine to d rain back into the oil pan
In vehicles w ith engine oil level check 3 , the
engine oil level is checked automatically -
see p age 27. It is particularly advisable to
check the engine oil level before embarking
on a long jo urney. .
To check the engine oil level, wipe off the
dipstick and insert it up to the stop m ark on
the handle. Top up engine oil if the level
has fallen to the MIN mark.
Eng ine oil should never pass the upper
MAX mark on the dipstick. Excess engine
oil must be dra ined or suctioned out. If the
eng ine oil level is above the MAX mark,
there is a danger of engine or catalytic
converter damage.
The amount filled must be between the
MIN and MAX marks – see page209.
9 Wa rning
Do not allow the engine oil level to drop
below the minimum level!
9 Warning
It is the owner’s responsibility to maintain
the correct level of an appropriate quality
oil in the engine.
183Maintenance, Inspection System
When topping up, use the same brand of
engine oil that was used during the
previous oil change. Observe the
inform ation in the Service Booklet.
When closing the cap, insert it straight and
screw it in all the way.
Capacities – see page 209.
Engine oil change, oil filter change
Change the oil at the displa yed service
intervals.
We recommend that you use genuine
Vauxhall engine oil filters.
9 Warning
We recommend that you entrust engine
oil and filter changes to a Vauxhall
Authorised Repairer, who will be familiar
with the requirements of the law as
regards disposal of used oil and can thus
help to protect the environment a nd your
he alth.
184 Maintenance, Inspection System
Diesel fuel filter
Check the fuel filter for any water residue
during ea ch engine oil cha nge .
We recommend that you consult your
Vauxhall Authorised Repairer.
Illumination of A indicates water in the
fuel filter 3.
Have fuel filter checked at shorter intervals
if the vehicle is subjected to e xtrem e
operating conditions such as high humidity
(primarily in coastal areas), extremely high
or low outside temperatures and
substantially varying daytime and night-
time temperatures.
Coo lant
During operation the system is pressurised.
The temp erature may therefore rise briefly
to over 100 °C.
The glycol-based coolant provides
excellent corrosion protection for the
heating and cooling systems as well as
antifreeze protection down to ap prox.
28 °C. It remains in the cooling system
throughout the year and need not be
changed.
Use of certain antifreezes c an lead to
engine dam age. We therefore rec om mend
that you use antifreezes that have been
approved by Vauxhall.
Antifreeze and corrosion protection
Before the start of the cold weather season,
have the coolant checked for correct
concentration using a calibrated
hydrometer. We recom mend that you
consult your Vauxhall Authorised Repairer.
The antifreeze content must guarantee
frost protection down to approx. 28 °C. An
insufficient concentration will reduce frost
and corrosion protection. Add antifreeze if
necessary.
If coolant loss is topped up with water,
have concentration checked and add
antifreeze if necessary.
9 Warning
Antifreeze is a d anger to health; it must
therefore be kept in the original container
and out of the reach of children.
185Maintenance, Inspection System
Coola nt level
Hardly any losses occur since the cooling
system is sealed and it is thus rarely
necessary to top up the coolant.
The coolant in the compensation tank
should be slightly above the mark KALT/
COLD with the cooling sy ste m cold. It rise s
when the engine is w arm a nd falls ag ain as
it cools. If it drops below the marking in this
case, it should be topped up to a level just
above the marking.
Top up antifreeze. If no antifreeze is
available, top up with clean tap water.
If tap water is unavailable, distilled water
can be used.
After topping up with tap or distilled water,
have the antifreeze concentration
checked, and antifreeze added if
necessary. Have the cause of the coolant
loss remedied. We recommend that you
consult your Vauxhall Authorised Repairer.
When closing the cap, insert it straight and
screw it in all the way.
C oolant temp era ture
If the temperature gauge is in the red zone,
coolant temperature is too high. Check the
coolant level im mediately:
z Coolant level low:
Top up coolant. Pay attention to the
instructions given under "Antifreeze and
corrosion protection" and "Coolant
level". Have the cause of coolant loss
remedied. We recommend that you
consult your Vauxhall Authorised
Repairer.
z Coolant level OK:
Have the cause of increased coolant
temperature remedied. Consult a
workshop. We recommend your
Vauxhall Authorised Repairer.
9 Wa rning
Allow engine to cool down before
removing coolant filler cap. Remove filler
cap c arefully so that pressure c an escape
slowly, otherwise there is a risk of
scalding.
186 Maintenance, Inspection System
Brake fluid
Brake fluid is hygroscopic, i.e. it absorbs
water. If the brakes become hot, such as
when driving on long downhill stretches,
vapour bubbles can occur in the water,
which can have an extremely adverse
effect on braking power (depending on the
proportion of water).
The fluid change intervals specified in the
Service Booklet must therefore be
observed.
Windscreen wiper
Clear vision is essential for safe driving.
Regularly check the windscreen wiper for
their cleaning effectiveness.
We recommend that wiper blades be
replaced at least once a year.
If the windows are dirty, op erate the
windscreen wash before switching the
wiper on in order to prevent wiper blade
wear.
Do not switch windscreen wiper on if
wind ow s a re icy , since this may damage
the wiper edges or the wiper system.
If the wiper becomes frozen on to the glass,
we rec om men d th at the y be re leas ed with
the aid of Vauxhall De-icer Spray.
Smearing wiper blades c an be cleaned with
a soft cloth and Vauxhall Windscreen
Wash Solvent.
Wiper blades whose lips have become
hardened, cracked or covered with silicone
must be replaced. This may be necessary
as a result of the effects of ice, thawing salt
or heat, or the incorrect use of cleaning
agents.
Switch off the windscreen wiper in
automatic car wash - see pages 15, 192.
Windscreen wiper blade maintenance - see
page 194.

Battery
The battery is maintenance-free.
Retro-fitted electrical or electronic
accessories can place an additional load
on the battery or even discharge the
battery. We recommend that you consult a
Vauxhall Authorised Repairer regarding
technical possibilities, such as fitting a
more powerful battery.
Parking the vehicle for more than 4 weeks
can lead to battery discharging. This may
reduce the service life of the battery.
Disconnect battery from on-board power
supply by disconnecting the negative
termina l.
The Vaux hall alarm system 3 siren must be
deactivated as follows: switch the ignition
on then off, disconnect the vehicle’s
battery within 15 seconds.
Ensure that ignition is switched off before
connecting battery. Then perform the
following actions:
z Set date and time in information
display - see page 33.
z If necessary, activate window
electronics 3. See page 99.
In order to prevent the battery from
discharging, some consumers such as the
courtesy light automatically switch off
after approx. 30 minutes.

Protectin g electronic components
In order to prevent faults in electronic
components in the electrical system, never
connect or disconnect battery with engine
running or ignition switched on. Never start
engine with battery disconnected, e.g.
when starting using jump leads.
To avoid damaging the vehicle, do not
make any modifications to the electrical
system, e. g. connecting additional

192 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 automa tic 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.
W hen us in g c ar was hes , fo llow the rele vant
instructions of the car wash facility. The
windscreen wiper and rear window
wiper 3 must be off - see page 15. R emove
the antenna 3 and roof rack 3.
If you wash your vehicle by hand, make
sure that the insides of the wings are also
thoroughly rinsed out.
Clean edges and folds on opened doors
and flaps as well as the areas they cover.
Thoroughly rinse off and leather-off the
vehicle. Rinse leather frequently. Use
separate leathers for paint and window
surfaces: remnants of wax on the windows
will impair vision.
Observe national regulations.
Waxing
Wax your vehicle regularly, in particular
after it has been washed using shampoo
and at the latest when wa ter no longer
forms beads on the paintwork, otherwise
the paintwork will dry out.
Also wax edg es a nd folds on op ened doors
and flaps as well as the areas they cover.
Polishing
Polishing is necessary only if the paint has
become dull or if solid deposits have
become attached to it.
Paintwork polish with silicone forms a
protective film, making waxing
unnecessary.
Plastic body parts should not be treated
with wax and polish.
Use Metallic Paintwork Wax on vehicles
with a metallic-effect paint finish.
Wheels
Use a pH-neutral wheel cleaning agent to
clean the wheels.
Wheels are painted and can be treated
with the same ag ents as the body. For alloy
wheels we recommend use of Alloy Wheel
Preserv er.
193Vehicle care
Paintwork damage
Repair small areas of paint damage
such as stone impacts, scratches etc.
immediately using a Vauxhall touch-up
applicator or Vauxhall spray and touch-up
paint before rust can form . If rust has
alrea dy formed, ha ve the c ause remedied.
We recommend that you consult your
Vauxhall Authorised Repairer. Please also
pay attention to surfaces and edges
beneath the vehicle where which rust ma y
have formed unnoticed for some time.
Exterior lights
Headlight and other protective light bezels
are made of plastic. If they require
additional cleaning after the vehicle has
been washed, clea n them with Car
Shampoo. Do not use any abrasive or
caustic agents, do not use an ice scraper,
and do not clean them dry.
Plastic and rubber parts
If the carwash does not clean plastic and
rubber parts adequately, use cleaner
suitable for vehicle interiors. Do not use a ny
other agent, and in particular do not use
solvents or petrol.
Do not use high-pressure jet clea ners.
Wheels and tyres
Do not use high-pressure jet clea ners.
Interior and upholstery
Clean the vehicle interior, including the
instrument panel fascia, using interior
cleaner.
The instrument panel is only to be cleaned
with a soft, damp cloth.
Clean fabric upholstery with a vacuum
cleaner and brush. To remove stains, use
cleaner that is suitable for both fabrics and
vinyl.
Do not use cleaners such as acetone,
carbon tetrachloride, paint thinner, paint
remover, nail varnish remover, washing
powder or bleach. Petrol is also unsuitable.
Open velcro fastenings in your clothing
could damage the seat cushions. Close
velcro fastening s.
Seat belts
Always keep seat belts clean and dry.
Clean only with lukewarm water or cleaner.
194 Vehicle care
Windows
When cleaning the heated rear window 3,
make sure that the heating element on the
inside of the window is not d amaged.
Use a soft lint-free cloth or chamois leather
in conjunction with Window Cleaner and
Insect Remover.
Vauxhall Windscreen Wash Solvent is
suitable for de-icing windows.
For mechanical removal of ice, use a
commercially available sharp-edged ice
scraper. Press the sc raper firmly against
the glass so that no dirt can get under it
and scratch the glass.
Windscreen wiper blades
Wax, such as that used in car washes, can
cause streaks to form on the windscreen
when the w iper is used.
Smearing wiper blades can be cleaned with
a soft cloth and Vauxhall Windscreen
Wash Solvent, and replaced if necessary
see p age 186.
Locks
The locks are lubricated with a high-grade
lock cylinder grease at the factory.
Vauxhall lock cylinder grease prevents the
locks from freezing up. Only use de-icing
agent in emergencies, as they have a
degreasing effect and will impair the
function of the locks. After using a de-icing
agent, have the locks re-greased. We
recommend that you entrust this to your
Vauxhall Authorised Repairer.
195Vehicle care
Engine compartment
Clean painted surfaces in the engine
compartment like any other painted
surface.
For best results, wash and wax the engine
compartment before and after winter.
Before washing the engine, cover the
alternator and brake fluid reservoir with
plastic sheeting.
When washing the engine with a steam-
jet cleaner, do not direct the steam jet
at components of the Anti-lock Brake
System 3 , the automatic air conditioning
system 3 or the belt drive and its
components.
Protective wax that has been applied is
also removed during the engine wash. For
this reason, have the engine, brake system
components in the engine compartment,
axle components with steering, body parts
and cavities thoroughly preserved with
protective wax after the wash. We
recommend tha t you consult your Vauxhall
Authorised Repairer.
An engine wash can be performed in the
spring in order to remove dirt that has
adhered to the engine compartment,
which may also have a high salt content.
Check protective wax layer and make good
if necessary.
Do not use high-pressure jet cleaners.
Underbody
Your vehicle has a factory-applied PVC
undercoating in the wheel arches
(including the longitudinal members) which
provides permanent protection and needs
no special maintenance. The surfaces of
the vehicle underbody not covered by PVC
are provided with a durable p rotective wax
coating in critical areas.
On vehicles which are washed frequently in
automatic car washes with underbody
washing facility, the protective wax
coating may b e impaired by dirt-dissolv ing
additives, so check the underbody after
washing and have it waxed if necessary.
Before the start of the cold weather season,
check the PVC coating and protective wax
coating and, if necessary, have them
restored to perfect condition.
Caution - commercially available bitumen/
rubber materials can damage the PVC
coating. We recommend that you have
underbody work carried out by a Vauxhall
Authorised Repairer, who knows the
prescribed materials and has experience in
the use thereof.
The underbody should be washed
following the end of the cold weather
season to remove any dirt adhering to the
underbody since this may also contain salt.
Check protective wax coating and, if
necessary, have it restored to perfect
condition.

Fuel consumption,
CO
2
emissions
Directive 80/1268/EEC (last changed by
1999/100/EC) has applied for the measure-
ment of fuel consumption since 1996.
The directive is oriented to actual driving
practices: Urban driving is rated at
approx.
1
/
3
and off-road driving with
approx.
2
/
3
(urban and extra-urban
consumption). Cold sta rts a nd acceleration
phases are also taken into considera tion.
The specification of CO
2
emission is also a
constituent of the directive.
The figures given m ust not be taken as a
guarantee for the actual fuel consumption
of a particular vehicle.
All values stem from the EU b ase model
with standard equipment.
The calculation of fuel consumption as
specified by directive 1999/100/EC takes
account of the vehicles kerb weight,
ascertained in accordance with the said
regulation. Optional extras may result in
slightly higher fuel consumption and CO
2
emission levels than those quoted.
To convert l/100 km into mpg, divide 282
by number of litres/100 km.

Weights, payload and roof load
The p ayload is the difference between
the permitted gross vehicle w eight (see
identification plate, page 196) and the EC
kerb weight.
To calculate the kerb weight, enter the
data for your vehicle below:
z Kerb weight from
Ta ble 1 ,
pages 203 to 204 + .............. kg
z Weight of heavy
accessories from Table 2,
page 204 + .............. kg
The total = .... .......... kg
is the EC kerb w eight.
Optional equipment and accessories
increase the kerb weight, which means that
the payload will also change slig htly.
Note the weights given in the vehicle
documents and the identification plate.
The combined total of front and rear axle
loa ds must not exce ed the perm issible
gross vehicle weight. For example, if
the front axle is b earing its maximum
permissib le load, the rear axle can only
bear a load that is eq ual to the gross
vehicle weight minus the front axle load.
The permissible axle loads must not be
exc ee ded.
See the identification plate or vehicle
documents for permissible axle loads.
Towing a caravan/trailer - see page 138.
Roof load
The permissible roof load is 100 kg - 75 kg
for the Combo with roof rails. The roof load
consists of the weight of the roof rack plus

We recommend that you consult a
Vauxhall Authorised Repairer concerning
suitable tyre makes.
These tyres have und ergone special tests
to establish their reliability, safety and
specific suitability for Vauxhall vehicles.
Despite continuous ma rk et monitoring, we
are unable to assess these attributes for
other tyres, ev en if they hav e been g ra nted
approval by the relevant authorities or in
some other form.
Further information – see page 132.
Winter tyres 3
Tyres of size 185/60 R 15, 185/65 R 15,
195/45 R 16 and 195/50 R 16 are not
permitted for use as winter tyres.
If winter tyres are in use, the spare whee l
may still be fitted w ith a summer tyre.
Use of the spare whee l may alter vehicle
ha ndling. Obtain a replacement for the
faulty tyre as soon as possible, and have
the wheel balanced and fitted to the
