When the battery is being replaced, 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.

another AGM battery.
An AGM battery can be identified by
the label on the battery. We
recommend the use of an original

different from the original Vauxhall
vehicle battery may result in a lower performance.
We recommend that you have the vehicle battery replaced by a
workshop.
