2017.5 VAUXHALL ZAFIRA TOURER oil type

Seats, restraints49Seat belts
The seat belts are locked during
heavy acceleration or deceleration of
the vehicle, holding the occupants in
the seat position. Therefore the risk of injury is considerably reduced.
9 Warning
Fasten seat belt before each trip.
In the event of an accident, people
not wearing seat belts endanger their fellow occupants and
themselves.
Seat belts are designed to be used by only one person at a time. Child
restraint system 3 59.
Periodically check all parts of the belt
system for damage, soiling and
proper functionality.
Have damaged components
replaced. After an accident, have the
belts and triggered belt pretensioners replaced by a workshop.
Notice
Make sure that the belts are not
damaged by shoes or sharp-edged
objects or are trapped. Prevent dirt
from getting into the belt retractors.
Seat belt reminder
Each seat is equipped with a seat belt
reminder, indicated for front seats by
control indicator X in the tachometer
3 110, or for rear seats by symbols
X or > in the Driver Information
Centre 3 116.
Belt force limiters
On the front seats, stress on the body
is reduced by the gradual release of
the belt during a collision.Belt pretensioners
In the event of a head-on or rear-end
collision of a certain severity, the front
seat belts are tightened.9 Warning
Incorrect handling (e.g. removal or
fitting of belts) can trigger the belt
pretensioners.
Deployment of the belt pretensioners
is indicated by continuous illumination
of control indicator v 3 110.
Triggered belt pretensioners must be replaced by a workshop. Belt
pretensioners can only be triggered
once.
Notice
Do not affix or install accessories or
other objects that may interfere with
the operation of the belt
pretensioners. Do not make any
modifications to belt pretensioner components as this will invalidate
the vehicle type approval.

Driving and operating199Caution
Frequent usage of diesel fuelcontaining more than 15 ppm
sulphur will cause severe engine
damage.
Caution
Use of fuel that does not comply to EN 590 or similar can lead to
engine powerloss, increased wear
or engine damage and may affect
your warranty.
Do not use marine diesel oils, heating
oils, Aquazole and similar diesel-
water emulsions. Diesel fuels must
not be diluted with fuels for petrol
engines.
Fuel for natural gas operation
Use natural gas with a methane
content of approx. 78 - 99%. L-gas
(low) has approx. 78 - 87% and H-gas (high) has approx. 87 - 99%. Biogas
with the same methane content can
also be used if it has been chemically
prepared and desulphurised.
Only use natural gas or biogas that complies with DIN 51624.
Liquid gas or LPG must not be used.
Fuel selector
Pressing Y switches between petrol
and natural gas operation. Switching
is not possible at high loads (e.g.
powerful acceleration, driving at full
throttle). The LED status shows the
current operating mode.
1 off:natural gas
operation1 illumi‐
nates:petrol operation1 flashes:no switching is
possible, one type of
fuel is empty
As soon as the natural gas tank is empty, petrol operation is
automatically engaged until the
ignition is switched off.
If the natural gas tank is not refuelled, the system must be manually
switched to petrol operation before
the engine is restarted. This will
prevent damage to the catalytic
converter (overheating caused by
irregular fuel supply).
If the selector switch is operated
several times within a short time, a
switchover inhibitor is activated. The
engine remains in the current
operating mode. The inhibitor
remains active until the ignition is
switched off.
A slight loss of power and torque can
be expected during petrol operation.
You must therefore adapt your driving

200Driving and operatingstyle (e.g. during overtaking
manoeuvres) and high vehicle loads
(e.g. towing loads) accordingly.
Every six months run the petrol tank down until control indicator Y
illuminates, then refuel. This is
necessary to maintain fuel quality as
well as system function necessary for
petrol operation.
Fill the tank completely at regular
intervals to prevent corrosion in the
tank.
Notice
Natural gas tanks (Type IV) consist
of lightweight fibre reinforced plastic.
After a collision behind the front
seats or overrunning of objects
which impact the underbody of the vehicle the natural gas tanks must
be checked. We recommend an Opel Repairer authorised for
servicing natural gas vehicles.
Fuel for liquid gas operation Liquid gas is known as LPG
(Liquefied Petroleum Gas) or under
its French name GPL (Gaz de Pétrole Liquéfié). LPG is also known as
Autogas.LPG consists mainly of propane and
butane. The octane rating is between
105 and 115, depending on the
butane proportion. LPG is stored as a liquid at a pressure of approximately
five to ten bar.
The boiling point depends on the
pressure and the mixing ratio. At
ambient pressure, it is between
-42 °C (pure propane) and -0.5 °C
(pure butane).Caution
The system works at an ambient
temperature of approx. -8 °C to
100 °C.
Full functioning of the LPG system can only be guaranteed with liquid
gas which complies with the minimum
requirements of DIN EN 589.
Fuel selector
Pressing LPG switches between
petrol and liquid gas operation as
soon as the required parameters (coolant temperature, gas
temperature and minimum engine
speed) have been reached. The
requirements are usually fulfilled after
approximately 60 seconds
(depending on exterior temperature)
and the first firm press on the
accelerator. The status LED shows
the current operating mode.

214Vehicle careGeneral Information
Accessories and vehicle modifications
We recommend the use of 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.
Any modification, conversion or other changes made to standard vehicle
specifications (including, without
limitation, software modifications,
modifications of the electronic control units) may invalidate the warranty
offered by Vauxhall. Furthermore,
such changes may affect driver
assistance systems, may impact fuel
consumption, CO 2 emissions and
other emissions of the vehicle and
cause the vehicle to no longer
conform to the type approval,
impacting the validity of your vehicle
registration.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 the rubber seals.
● Fill up fuel tank completely.
● Change the engine oil.
● Drain the washer fluid reservoir.
● Check the coolant antifreeze and
corrosion protection.
● Adjust tyre pressure to the value specified for full load.
● Park the vehicle in a dry, wellventilated place. Engage first or
reverse gear or set selector lever
to P. Prevent the vehicle from
rolling.
● Do not apply the parking brake.
● Open the 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.

260Service and maintenanceDexos is the newest engine oil quality
that provides optimum protection for
gasoline and diesel engines. If it is unavailable, engine oils of other listed qualities have to be used.
Recommendations for gasoline
engines are also valid for
Compressed Natural Gas (CNG),
Liquified Petroleum Gas (LPG) and
Ethanol (E85) fuelled engines.
Select the appropriate engine oil
based on its quality and on the
minimum ambient temperature
3 264.
Topping up engine oil
Engine oils of different manufacturers
and brands can be mixed as long as
they comply with the required engine
oil quality and viscosity.
Use of engine oil with only
ACEA A1/B1 or only A5/B5 quality is
prohibited, since it can cause long-
term engine damage under certain
operating conditions.
Select the appropriate engine oil
based on its quality and on the
minimum ambient temperature
3 264.Additional 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 3 264.
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.
Washer fluid Use only washer fluid approved for
the vehicle to prevent damage of
wiper blades, paintwork, plastic and
rubber parts. Consult a workshop.
