Inspection systemIn order to ensure economical 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.
Fixed service interval
When service is due, InSP appears in
the odometer display for approximately
10 seconds when the ignition is switched
on. Have the next service performed by a
workshop within one week or 500 km
(whichever occurs first). The service interval display takes account
of off-the-road periods during which the
battery is disconnected.
Flexible service interval 3
The length of the service intervals is based
on several parameters stemming from
usage. For this reason, various
engine-specific data is continually
gathered and is used to calculate the
remaining distance until the next service.
If the remaining distance is less than
1500 km, InSP is displayed with a
remaining distance of 1000 km when the
ignition is switched on and off. If less than
1000 km remains, InSP is displayed for
several seconds. Have the next service
performed by a workshop within one week
or 500 km (whichever occurs first).
Display of remaining distance:
1. Switch off ignition.
2. Briefly press the trip odometer reset
button. The odometer reading is shown.
3. Press and hold the reset button for about
2 seconds. InSP and the remaining
distance are displayed. Further information on maintenance and
the inspection system can be found in the
Service and Warranty Booklet, which is
located in the glove compartment.
Have maintenance work – and repair work
on the body and the equipment – carried
out professionally by a workshop. We
recommend using your Opel Partner, who
has excellent knowledge of Opel vehicles
and has the necessary special tools and
up-to-date service instructions from Opel.
It is particularly advisable to use an Opel
Partner during the warranty period in order
to prevent invalidation of the warranty.
Further information can be found in the
Service and Warranty Booklet.
Separate anti-corrosion service
Carry out according to the intervals
specified in the Service and Warranty
Booklet.
