144Driving and operatingAdBlue canisterNote
Only use the designated AdBlue
canisters for refilling, to prevent a
topping-up of too much AdBlue.
Additionally, the fumes in the tank
are captured in the canister and do
not emerge.
Note
Since AdBlue has a limited
durability, check the date of expiry
before refilling.
1. Switch off engine and remove key
from ignition switch.
2. Open right-hand door and pull fuel
filler flap to open.3. Unscrew blue protective cap anticlockwise from the filler neck.
4. Open AdBlue canister.
5. Mount one end of the hose on the
canister and screw the other end
on the filler neck.
6. Lift the canister until it is empty, or
until the flow from the canister has stopped. This can take up to five
minutes.
7. Place the canister on the ground to empty the hose, wait 15
seconds.
8. Unscrew the hose from the filler neck.
9. Mount the protective cap and turn
clockwise until it engages.
10. Close filler flap and right-hand door.
Note
Dispose of AdBlue canister
according to environmental
requirements. Hose can be reused
after flushing with clear water before
AdBlue dries out.Note
Allow the vehicle to idle for at least
ten seconds to allow the system to
detect the AdBlue refill.
Failure to observe this procedure will
result in the system only recognising the AdBlue refill after approx.
20 minutes of driving.
If the AdBlue refill is detected
successfully, AdBlue level warnings
will disappear.
If the AdBlue refill is not detected
some time after running the engine,
seek the assistance of a workshop.
Filler cap
Only use genuine filler caps. AdBlue tank has a special filler cap.
Fault
If the system detects an operating
fault, control indicator Õ illuminates
together with A and a warning
chime. Seek the assistance of a
workshop immediately.
Depending on version, a
corresponding message may also
appear in the Driver Information
Centre 3 98.
164Driving and operatingwater emulsions. Diesel fuels must
not be diluted with fuels for petrol
engines.
The flow and filterability of diesel fuels are temperature-dependent. When
temperatures are low, refuel with
diesel fuel with guaranteed winter
properties.
Diesel fuel filter 3 178, diesel fuel
system bleeding 3 178.
Refuelling9 Danger
Before refuelling, switch off engine
and any external heaters with
combustion chambers. Switch off
any mobile phones.
Follow the operating and safety
instructions of the filling station
when refuelling.
9 Danger
Fuel is flammable and explosive.
No smoking. No naked flames or
sparks.
If you can smell fuel in your
vehicle, have the cause of this
remedied immediately by a
workshop.
Caution
In case of misfuelling, do not
switch on ignition.
The fuel tank filler neck with bayonet
cap is located on the left front side of
the vehicle.
The fuel filler flap can only be opened
if the vehicle is unlocked and the door is opened. Open the fuel filler flap by
hand.
9 Danger
Vehicles with stop-start system:
The engine must be switched off
and the ignition key removed, to
avoid risk of engine being
restarted automatically by the
system.
Capacities 3 238.
Remove the fuel filler cap by turning
it anti-clockwise.
The fuel filler cap can be hung on the lower hook of the fuel filler flap.
For refuelling, fully insert the pump
nozzle and switch it on.
170Vehicle 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 Opel. Furthermore, such
changes 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 rubber seals.
● 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 a dry, well ventilated place. Engage first or
reverse gear. 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.

218Technical dataIdentification plate
The identification plate is located on
the right hand door pillar.
Information on identification plate:1:manufacturer's name2:certification number3:vehicle identification number4:permissible gross vehicle
weight rating in kg5:permissible gross train weight
in kg6:maximum permissible front axle load in kg7:maximum permissible rear axle
load in kg8:engine type9:engine identification code10:fabrication number11:vehicle paint code
Note
The identification plate on your
vehicle may differ from the
illustration shown.
The combined total of front and rear
axle loads must not exceed the
permissible gross vehicle weight. For
example, if the front axle is bearing its
maximum permissible load, the rear
axle can only bear a load that is equal
to the gross vehicle weight minus the front axle load.
The technical data is determined in
accordance with European
Community standards. We reserve
the right to make modifications.
Specifications in the vehicle
documents always have priority over
those given in this manual.
Engine identifier code and enginenumber
Stamped on the engine cylinder block
and on a label attached to the timing
chain cover, depending on variant.
Engine identification
The technical data tables show the
engine identifier code. Engine data
3 220.
To identify the respective engine,
refer to the engine power in the EEC
Certificate of Conformity provided
with your vehicle or other national
registration documents.
244Customer information● Vehicle reactions in particulardriving situations (e.g. inflation of
an airbag, activation of the
stability regulation system).
● Environmental conditions (e.g. temperature).
These data are exclusively technical and help identifying and correcting
errors as well as optimizing vehicle
functions.
Motion profiles indicating travelled
routes cannot be created with these
data.
If services are used (e.g. repair
works, service processes, warranty cases, quality assurance),
employees of the service network
(manufacturer included) are able to
read out this technical information
from the event and error data storage
modules applying special diagnostic
devices. If required, you will receive
further information at these
workshops. After an error has been
corrected, the data are deleted from
the error storage module or they are
constantly overwritten.When using the vehicle, situations
may occur in which these technical
data related to other information
(accident report, damages on the
vehicle, witness statements etc.) may be associated with a specific person -possibly, with the assistance of an
expert.
Additional functions contractually
agreed upon with the client (e.g.
vehicle location in emergency cases)
allow the transmission of particular
vehicle data from the vehicle.
Radio Frequency
Identification (RFID)
RFID technology is used in some
vehicles for functions such as tyre
pressure monitoring and ignition
system security. It is also used in
connection with conveniences such
as radio remote controls for door
locking/unlocking and starting, and in-
vehicle transmitters for garage door
openers. RFID technology in Opel
vehicles does not use or record
personal information or link with any
other Opel system containing
personal information.
