2014.5 VAUXHALL INSIGNIA oil type

Instruments and controls101
Because of the fuel remaining in the
tank, the top-up quantity may be less
than the specified tank capacity.
Fuel selector
Pressing button LPG switches
between petrol and liquid gas
operation. The status LED 1 shows
the current operating mode.
1 off=petrol operation1 illumi‐
nates=liquid gas operation1 flashes=no switching is
possible, one type
of fuel is emptyAs soon as the liquid gas tank is
empty, petrol operation is
automatically engaged until the
ignition is switched off.
After the engine is started, the LED
1 is sometimes off. If the LPG button
is pressed twice in this situation, the
LED 1 starts flashing.
Fuel for liquid gas operation 3 205.
Engine coolant

If engine coolant temperature is
too high, stop vehicle, switch off
engine. Danger to engine. Check
coolant level.
Service display
The engine oil life system lets you
know when to change the engine oil
and filter. Based on driving
conditions, the interval at which an
engine oil and filter change will be
indicated can vary considerably.

On Baselevel display, the pages
"Remaining Oil Life ", "Tyre
Pressure", "Traffic Sign Assistant" and "Following distance indication"
are displayed in the Settings Menu
X . Select by pressing Menu
button.
On Baselevel display, the pages "Top consumers", "Economy trend" and
"Eco index" are displayed in the Eco
Menu s . Select by pressing
Menu button.
Trip odometer 1/A and 2/B
Trip odometer displays the current
distance since a certain reset.
Trip odometer counts up to a distance
of 2000 miles then restarts at 0.
To reset on Baselevel display, press
the SET/CLR button for a few
seconds, on Midlevel and Uplevel
display, press > and confirm with 9.
The information of trip odometer page
1/A and 2/B can be reset separately
for odometer, average consumption
and average speed while the
respective display is active.Average consumption
Display of average consumption. The measurement can be reset at any
time and starts with a default value.
To reset on Baselevel display, press
the SET/CLR button for a few
seconds, on Midlevel and Uplevel
display, press > and confirm with 9.
On vehicles with LPG engines,
average consumption is indicated for the currently selected mode, LPG or
Gasoline.
Average speed
Display of average speed. The
measurement can be reset at any
time.
To reset on Baselevel display, press
the SET/CLR button for a few
seconds, on Midlevel and Uplevel
display, press > and confirm with 9.
Digital speed Digital display of the instantaneous
speed.Fuel range
Range is calculated from current fuel
tank content and current
consumption. The display shows
average values.
After refuelling, the range is updated
automatically after a brief delay.
When the fuel level in the tank is low,
a message appears on the display
and the control indicator i or Y in the
fuel gauge illuminates.
When the tank has to be refuelled
immediately, a warning message
appears and remains on the display.
Additionally the control indicator i
or Y in the fuel gauge flashes 3 108.
Fuel range LPG version
Display of approximate fuel range
available with the remaining fuel in
each respective fuel tank of gasoline
and LPG fuel, along with a total range
of both fuel types together. Switch
between the modes by pressing
SET/CLR button or 9 button.

Accessories and vehicle
modifications
We recommend to use genuine parts and accessories and factory
approved parts specific for your
vehicle type. We cannot assess or
guarantee reliability of other products
- even if they have a regulatory or
otherwise granted approval.
Do not make any modifications to the
electrical system, e.g. changes of
electronic control units (chip tuning).Caution
When transporting the vehicle on
a train or on a recovery vehicle, the
mud flaps might be damaged.
Vehicle storage
Storage for a long period of time
If the vehicle is to be stored for several months:
■ Wash and wax the vehicle.
■ Have the wax in the engine compartment and underbody
checked.
■ Clean and preserve rubber seals.
■ Fill up fuel tank completely.
■ Change engine oil.
■ Drain washer fluid reservoir.
■ Check coolant antifreeze and corrosion protection.
■ Adjust tyre pressure to the value specified for full load.
■ Park vehicle in dry, well ventilated place. Engage first or reverse gear
or set selector lever to P. Prevent
the vehicle from rolling.
■ Do not apply parking brake.

266Service and maintenance
Select the appropriate engine oil
based on its quality and on the
minimum ambient temperature
3 269.
Additional engine oil additives
The use of additional engine oil
additives could cause damage and
invalidate the warranty.
Engine oil viscosity grades
The SAE viscosity grade gives
information of the thickness of the oil.
Multigrade oil is indicated by two
figures, e.g. SAE 5W-30. The first
figure, followed by a W, indicates the
low temperature viscosity and the
second figure the high temperature viscosity.
Select the appropriate viscosity grade
depending on the minimum ambient
temperature 3 269.
All of the recommended viscosity
grades are suitable for high ambient
temperatures.Coolant and antifreeze
Use only organic acid type-long life
coolant (LLC) antifreeze approved for
the vehicle. Consult a workshop.
The system is factory filled with
coolant designed for excellent
corrosion protection and frost
protection down to approx. -28 °C. In
northern countries with very low
temperatures the factory filled coolant
provides frost protection down to
approx. -37°C. This concentration should be maintained all year round.
The use of additional coolant
additives that intend to give additional
corrosion protection or seal against
minor leaks can cause function
problems. Liability for consequences resulting from the use of additional
coolant additives will be rejected.
Brake and clutch fluid
Over time, brake fluid absorbs
moisture which will reduce braking
effectiveness. The brake fluid should
therefore be replaced at the specified
interval.
