2016.5 VAUXHALL INSIGNIA oil type

114Instruments and controlsWhen the fuel level in the tank is low,
a message appears on the display
and control indicator i or Y in the
fuel gauge illuminates.
When the tank must be refuelled
immediately, a warning message
appears and remains on the display.
Additionally, 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 Petrol
and LPG fuel, along with a total range of both fuel types together. Switch
between the modes by pressing
SET/CLR or 9.
Gasoline fuel level/LPG fuel level
Displays the fuel level for the fuel type
not currently being used, e.g. in petrol
mode the fuel level for LPG is
displayed. A dedicated Driver
Information Centre cluster gauge
shows the fuel level for the fuel
currently being used.Instantaneous fuel consumption
Display of the instantaneous
consumption.
On vehicles with LPG engines,
instantaneous consumption is
indicated for the currently selected
mode, LPG or Petrol.
Remaining oil life
Indicates an estimate of the oil's
useful life. The number in % means the remaining of current oil life 3 101.
Tire pressure
Checks tyre pressure of all wheels
during driving 3 254.
Timer
To start and stop press 9. To reset,
press > and confirm Reset.
Traffic sign assistant
Displays the detected traffic signs for
the current route section 3 208.Following distance
Displays the distance in seconds to a
preceding moving vehicle 3 194. If
Adaptive cruise control is active this
page shows the following distance
setting instead.
Battery voltage
Displays the vehicle battery voltage.
Top consumers
List of top comfort consumers
currently switched on is displayed in
descending order. Fuel saving
potential is indicated.
During sporadic driving conditions,
the engine will activate the heated
rear window automatically to increase the engine load. In this event, the
heated rear window is indicated as
one of the top consumers, without
activation by the driver.
Economy trend
Displays the average consumption
development over a distance of
31 miles. Filled segments display the
consumption in 3.1 mile steps and

Vehicle care225General Information
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.● Open bonnet, close all doors and
lock the vehicle.
● Disconnect the clamp from the negative terminal of the vehicle
battery. Beware that all systems
are not functional, e.g. anti-theft
alarm system.
Putting back into operation When the vehicle is to be put back into
operation:
● Connect the clamp to the negative terminal of the vehicle
battery. Activate the electronics
of the power windows.
● Check tyre pressure.
● Fill up the washer fluid reservoir. ● Check the engine oil level.
● Check the coolant level.
● Fit the number plate if necessary.

Service and maintenance275Additional 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 3 278.
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. Innorthern 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.
AdBlue Only use AdBlue to reduce the
nitrogen oxides in the exhaust
emission 3 164.
