Driving Information
Control of a Vehicle
Never coast with engine not
running (except during
Autostop)
Many systems will not function in
this situation (e.g. brake servo unit,
power steering). Driving in this
manner is a danger to yourself and
others.
Idle boost
If charging of the vehicle battery is
required due to vehicle battery
condition, the power output of the
alternator must be increased. This
will be achieved by an idle boost
which may be audible.
Pedals
To ensure the pedal travel is
uninhibited, there must be no mats
in the area of the pedals.

Steering Light 072.
Caution
Vehicle equipped with electric
power steering:
If the steering wheel is turned
until it reaches the end of its
travel and is held against that
position for an extended period of
time, power steering assist may
be reduced.
If the steering assistance is used
for an extended period of time,
power assistance may be
reduced.
Normal use of the power steering
assist should return when the
system cools down.
Starting and
Operating
New Vehicle Run-In
Do not brake unnecessarily hard for
the first few journeys.
During the first drive, smoke may
occur because of wax and oil
evaporating off the exhaust system.
Park the vehicle in the open for a
while after the first drive and avoid
inhaling the fumes.
During the running-in period fuel
and engine oil consumption may be
higher.
Autostop may be inhibited to allow
for charging the vehicle battery.

Vehicle Care 165
The vehicle battery is
maintenance-free provided that the
driving profile allows sufficient
charging of the battery.
Short-distance-driving and frequent
engine starts can discharge the
battery. Avoid the use of
unnecessary electrical consumers.
Batteries do not belong in
household waste. They must be
disposed of at an appropriate
recycling collection point.
Laying up the vehicle for more than
4 weeks can lead to battery
discharge. Disconnect the clamp
from the negative terminal of the
vehicle battery.
Ensure the ignition is switched off
before connecting or disconnecting
the vehicle battery.
Replacing the vehicle battery
Note:Any deviation from the
instructions given in this paragraph
may lead to a temporary
deactivation of the stop-start
system.
When the vehicle battery is being
replaced, please ensure that there
are no open ventilation holes in the
vicinity of the positive terminal. If a
ventilation hole is open in this area,
it must be closed off with a dummy
cap, and the ventilation in the
vicinity of the negative terminal must
be opened.
Only use vehicle batteries that allow
the fuse box to be mounted above
the vehicle battery.
In vehicles with stop-start system,
ensure to have the AGM (Absorptive
Glass Mat) battery replaced with an
AGM battery again.
An AGM battery can be identified by
the label on the battery. We
recommend the use of an original
Vauxhall vehicle battery.
Note: Using an AGM vehicle
battery different from the original
Vauxhall vehicle battery may result
in a lower performance of the
stop-start system.
We recommend that you have the
vehicle battery replaced by a
workshop. Stop-start system
