Mobile telephones and radio
equipment
3
The Opel installation instructions and the
operating guidelines provided by the
telephone manufacturer must be followed
when fitting and operating a mobile
telephone. Failure to do so could invalidate
the vehicle’s operating permit
(EU Directive 95 54/EG).
Recommended prerequisites for fault-free
operation:
z Professionally installed exterior antenna
to obtain the maximum range possible.
z Maximum transmission power 10 Watt.
z Installation of the te lephone in a suitable
spot (see information 377).
Seek advice on predetermined installation
points for the external antenna or
equipment holder and ways of using
devices with a transmission power
exceeding 10 watts.
We recommend you contact your Opel
Service Partner who will have brackets and
various different accessory kits available
and can fit them correctly. Use of a handsfree attachment without
external antenna with mobile telephone
standards GSM 900/1800/1900 and UMTS
is only permitted if the maximum
transmission power of the mobile
telephone is 2 watts for GSM 900 or 1 watt
for the other types.
For reasons of safety, we recommend that
you do not use the phone while driving.
Even use of a handsfree set can be a
distraction while
driving. Be sure to observe
any country-specific regulations.
9
Warning
Mobile phones that do not comply with
the above-mentioned mobile phone
standard and radio equipment must
only be operated using an antenna that
is attached to the exterior of the vehicle.
Caution
Mobile phones and radio equipment
may cause malfunctions in the vehicle
electronics if they are operated in the
vehicle without the external antenna
unless the above-mentioned regulations
are complied with.

Ventilation, heating and cooling 3 are
combined into one unit that is designed to
provide comfort regardless of the season,
weather or outside temperature.
When cooling 3 is activated, the air is
cooled and dried. The heating unit heats the air as required in
all operating modes depending on the
position of the temperature switch. The air
supply can be adjusted to suit
requirements by means of the fan.

entry of outside air and the air in the
passenger compartment is circulated.
Operated with the 4 button. To deactivate manual
air recirculation:
Press button 4 again. The control
indicator in the butt on will go out.
Auxiliary heater Depending on outside temperature and
engine temperature, the passenger
compartment of vehicles with Quickheat 3
electric auxiliary heating is warmed up
more quickly.
Diesel-engined vehicles have a fuel-
powered auxiliary heater 3.

Warning
The exchange of fresh air is reduced in
air circulation mode. The quality of the
passenger compartment air deterio-
rates which may cause the vehicle occu-
pants to feel drowsy. In operation
without cooling the air humidity
increases, so the windows may mist up.
Consequently, the air circulation system
should only be run for short periods of
time.
