Lighting
Important exterior lights, including cables and fuses, are monitored. In
trailer mode, trailer lighting is also

174Vehicle care
Tyres of size 205/50 R 17 must only
be used as winter tyres.
Tyres of size 225/40 R 18 1)
,
225/40 ZR 18 and 235/35 R 19 must not be used as winter tyres.
Winter tyres may only be used on the Zafira VXR on special alloy wheels
approved by Vauxhall.
Run-flat winter tyres may only be
used on factory approved alloy
wheels.
In accordance with country-specific
regulations, affix the speed sticker in
the driver's field of view.
Run-flat tyres Run-flat tyres have reinforced, self-
supporting sidewalls, which ensure
that the tyres always have a certain
amount of driveability, even when
there is no pressure.
Run-flat tyres are only permitted on
vehicles with electronic stability
program and tyre pressure monitoring
system or deflation detection system.Caution
Check tyre pressures regularly
even if run-flat tyres are fitted.
Depending on tyre manufacturer, run- flat tyres can be identified from a
marking on the tyre wall. E.g.
ROF=RunonFlat for Goodyear orSSR=Self Supporting Runflat Tyre
for Continental.
Use of run-flat tyres is only permitted
in combination with factory approved
alloy wheels.
Do not use a tyre repair kit.
The ECO tyre pressure must not be
used.
Run-flat tyres must not be combined
with standard tyres.
If converting to standard tyres, note
that the vehicle is not equipped with a spare wheel or tyre repair kit.
Driving with a damaged tyre
A loss in tyre pressure is indicated by
the tyre pressure monitoring system
or the deflation detection system.
If a tyre has no pressure, continued
driving is possible
■ at a speed of max. 80 km/h
■ up to a distance of 80 km9 Warning
The vehicle will be more difficult to
steer and handle. Braking
distance will be longer.
Adapt driving style and speed to the changed conditions.

Tyre pressure
Check the pressure of cold tyres at
least every 14 days and before any long journey. Do not forget the spare
wheel. This also applies to vehicles
with tyre pressure monitoring.Remove the valve cap key from the
fuel filler flap and use it to unscrew the
valve cap.
On vehicles with tyre pressure
monitoring system, screw the adapter
to the valve.
Tyre pressure 3 206 and on the label
on the inside of the fuel filler flap.
The tyre pressure data refer to cold
tyres. It applies to summer and winter tyres.
Always inflate the spare wheel to the
pressure specified for full load.
The ECO tyre pressure serves to
achieve the smallest amount of fuel
consumption possible. It must not be used with run-flat tyres.
Incorrect tyre pressures will impair
safety, vehicle handling, comfort and
fuel economy and will increase tyre
wear.
Tyre pressures differ depending on
various options. For the correct tyre
pressure value, follow the procedure
below:
1. Identify drive axle and body style.
2. Identify the engine identifier code.
Engine data 3 202.
3. Identify the respective tyre.

176Vehicle care
The tyre pressure tables show allpossible tyre combinations 3 206.
For the tyres approved for your
vehicle, refer to the EEC Certificate of Conformity provided with your vehicle
or other national registration
documents.
The driver is responsible for correct
adjustment of tyre pressure.9 Warning
If the pressure is too low, this can
result in considerable tyre warm-
up and internal damage, leading to tread separation and even to tyre
blow-out at high speeds.
Tyre pressure monitoring
system
The tyre pressure monitoring system
continually checks the pressure of all
four wheels when vehicle speed
exceeds a certain limit.
All wheels must be equipped with
pressure sensors and the tyres must
have the prescribed pressure.
When a low tyre condition is detected,
A illuminates. If A comes on, stop as
soon as possible and inflate the tyres as recommended in this manual. Tyre pressures 3 206.
After inflating the tyres to the
appropriate pressure, A may stay
illuminated. Pressure change will be
recognized as the vehicles is driven.
Notice
In countries where the tyre pressure
monitoring system is legally
required, the use of wheels without
pressure sensors will invalidate the
vehicle type approval.
The current tyre pressures may be
shown in the Info-Display 3 107.
Vehicle messages, tyre pressure 3 102.
Control indicator w 3 91.
If the tyre pressure shall be reduced
or increased, switch off ignition.
w may come on in cool weather when
the vehicle is first started and then
turn off as the vehicle is driven. Thiscould be an early indicator that the air
pressure is getting low and needs to
be inflated to the proper pressure.
A spare or temporary spare wheel is
not equipped with pressure sensors.
The tyre pressure monitoring system
is not operational for these wheels
and w illuminates.
Winter tyres or additional wheel sets
have to be fitted with sensors,
otherwise the system will not work
and w will indicate malfunction by
flashing one minute and then
illuminate continuously.
The use of commercially available
liquid tyre repair kits can impair the
function of the system. Factory-
approved repair kits can be used.
External high-power radio equipment
could disrupt the tyre pressure
monitoring system.
Unsuited rims can impair the
transmission quality of the tyre
pressure monitoring system sensors.

Vehicle care179
Always use fine mesh chains that addno more than 10 mm to the tyre tread
and the inboard sides (including chain
lock).9 Warning
Damage may lead to tyre blowout.
Tyre chains are permitted on tyres of
size 195/65 R 15, 195/60 R 16,
205/55 R16, 205/50 R 17 and
225/45 R17.
Tyre chains are not permitted on tyres of size 225/40 R 18, 225/40 ZR 18
and 235/35 R 19.
The use of tyre chains is not permitted on the temporary spare wheel.
Tyre repair kit
Minor damage to the tyre tread can be
repaired with the tyre repair kit.
Do not remove foreign bodies from
the tyres.
Tyre damage exceeding 4 mm or that
is near the rim cannot be repaired with the tyre repair kit.
9 Warning
Do not drive faster than 80 km/h.
Do not use for a lengthy period.
Steering and handling may be
affected.
If you have a flat tyre:
Apply parking brake and engage first
gear, reverse gear or P.
The tyre repair kit is in the stowage
compartment in the load
compartment.
Push the locking tabs forward and
remove the cover.
1. Take the sealant bottle and bracket with air hose from the
insert.
2. Detach air hose from bracket and screw onto sealant bottle
connection.

182Vehicle care
Replace the used sealant bottle.Dispose of the bottle as prescribed
by applicable laws.
The compressor and sealant can be used from approx. -30 °C.
The adapters supplied can be used
to pump up other items e.g.
footballs, air mattresses, inflatable
dinghies etc. They are located on the underside of the compressor. To
remove, screw on compressor air hose and withdraw adapter.
Wheel changing Some vehicles are equipped with a
tyre repair kit instead of a spare wheel
3 179.
Make the following preparations and
observe the following information:
■ Park the vehicle on a level, firm and
non-skid surface. The front wheels
must be in the straight-ahead
position.
■ Apply the parking brake and engage first gear, reverse gear or
P .
■ Remove the spare wheel 3 184.■ Never change more than one wheel
at once.
■ Use the jack only to change wheels
in case of puncture, not for
seasonal winter or summer tyre
change.
■ If the ground on which the vehicle is standing is soft, a solid board
(max. 1 cm thick) should be placed
under the jack.
■ Take heavy objects out of the vehicle before jacking up.
■ No people or animals may be in the
vehicle when it is jacked-up.
■ Never crawl under a jacked-up vehicle.
■ Do not start the vehicle when it is raised on the jack.
■ Before screwing in the wheel bolts,
clean them and lightly coat thetaper of each wheel bolt with
commercially available grease.
1. Pull off the wheel cover with the hook. Vehicle tools 3 173.
For wheel covers with visible
wheel bolts: The cover can remain
on the wheel. Do not remove the
retaining rings on the wheel bolts.
Alloy wheels: Disengage wheel
bolt caps with a screwdriver and
remove. To protect the wheel,
place a soft cloth between the
screwdriver and the alloy wheel.
