line of the Display.
Turn the adjuster wheel to select a submenu. Press SET/CLR to confirm.
92Instruments and controlsSubmenus are:
●Shift indication : Current gear is
indicated inside an arrow. The
figure above recommends
upshifting for fuel saving
reasons.
Eco index display : The current
fuel consumption is indicated on a segment display. For
economical driving, adapt your driving style to keep the filled
segments within the Eco area.
The more segments are filled, the higher the fuel consumption.
Simultaneously the current
consumption value is indicated.
● Top Consumers : List of top
comfort consumers currently
switched on is displayed in
descending order. Fuel saving
potential is indicated. A switched-
off consumer disappears from
the list and the consumption
value will be updated.
The list of consumers varies due
to model variant.● Economy Trend : Displays the
average consumption
development over a distance of
50 miles. Filled segments display the consumption in 5 mile steps
and shows the effect of
topography or driving behaviour
on fuel consumption.
Colour-Info-Display Depending on the vehicle
configuration, the vehicle has a
Colour-Info-Display with touchscreen
functionality.

Control of the vehicle Never coast with engine not
running
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.
All systems function during an
Autostop.
Stop-start system 3 126.
Idle boost
If charging of the vehicle battery is
required due to battery condition, the
power output of the generator must be increased. This will be achieved by an idle boost which may be audible.
A message appears on the Uplevel-
Display.
Pedals To ensure the pedal travel is
uninhibited, there must be no mats in
the area of the pedals.
124Driving and operatingUse only floor mats, which fit properly
and are fixed by the retainers on the
driver side.
Steering
If power steering assist is lost
because the engine stops or due to a system malfunction, the vehicle can
be steered but may require increased
effort.
Control indicator c 3 85.Starting and operating
New vehicle running-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.Ignition switch positions0:ignition off1:steering wheel lock released,

Fuel consumption - CO 2-
Emissions
The fuel consumption (combined) of
the model Vauxhall Adam is within a
range of 40 to 67 mpg.
The CO 2 emission (combined) is
within a range of 139 to 99 g/km.
For the values specific for your
vehicle, refer to the EEC Certificate of Conformity provided with your vehicle
or other national registration
documents.
General information
The official fuel consumption and
specific CO 2 emission figures quoted
relate to the EU base model with
standard equipment.Fuel consumption data and CO 2
emission data are determined
according to regulation R (EC)
No. 715/2007 (in the latest applicable
version), taking into consideration the
vehicle weight in running order, as
specified by the regulation.
The figures are provided only for the
purpose of comparison between
different vehicle variants and must not be taken as a guarantee for the
actual fuel consumption of a
particular vehicle. Additional
equipment may result in slightly
higher results than the stated
consumption and CO 2 figures.
Furthermore, fuel consumption is dependent on personal driving style as well as road and traffic conditions.
182Vehicle careThe maximum speed is achievable atkerb weight with driver (75 kg) plus
125 kg payload. Optional equipment
could reduce the maximum speed of
the vehicle.
Performance 3 217.
Directional tyres
Directional tyres must be mounted so that they rotate in the correct
direction. The proper rotation
direction is indicated by a symbol
(e.g. an arrow) on the sidewall.
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 system.
Unscrew the valve cap.
Tyre pressure 3 221.
The tyre pressure information label
on the right door frame indicates the
original equipment tyres and the
correspondent tyre pressures.
The tyre pressure data refers to cold
tyres. It applies to summer and winter tyres.
The ECO tyre pressure serves to
achieve the smallest amount of fuel
consumption possible.
Incorrect tyre pressures will impair
safety, vehicle handling, comfort and fuel economy and will increase tyre
wear.
The tyre pressure tables show all
possible tyre combinations 3 221.
Identify the respective tyre.
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.
If the tyre pressure must be reduced
or increased, switch off ignition. After
adjusting tyre pressure switch on
ignition and select the relevant setting on the page Tyre load in the Driver
Information Centre 3 87.
