The display shows average values.
After refuelling, the range is updated
automatically after a brief delay.
When the fuel level in the tank is low,
a message appears on the display
and control indicator Y in the fuel
gauge illuminates.
When the tank must be refuelled
immediately, a warning code appears and remains on the display.
Additionally, control indicator Y
flashes in the fuel gauge 3 75.
Fuel range, LPG version

range for both fuel tanks (LPG and
petrol).
Average vehicle speed

measurement can be reset at any
time.
To reset, press SET/CLR for a few
seconds while viewing this page.

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 3 109.
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 in the Driver
Information Centre.
Pedals
To ensure the pedal travel is
uninhibited, there must be no mats in
the area of the pedals.

Driving and operating129Fuel 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
liquid at around five to ten bar
pressure.
The boiling point depends on the
pressure and 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 function of the LPG system can
only be guaranteed with liquid gas
which complies with the minimum
requirements of DIN EN 589.
Fuel selector 3 65.
Refuelling
9 Danger
Before refuelling, switch off
ignition and any external heaters
with combustion chambers.
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.
A label with symbols at the fuel filler
flap is indicating the allowed fuel
types. In Europe the pump nozzles of the filling stations are marked with
these symbols. Refuel only the
allowed fuel type.

130Driving and operatingCaution
In case of misfuelling, do not
switch on ignition.
1. Stop the engine.
2. Pull up the fuel filler flap release lever located on the floor, left front
side of driver's seat.
The fuel filler flap is located at right
rear side of the vehicle.
3. Turn the fuel filler cap counterclockwise slowly. If a
hissing sound is heard, wait for it
to stop before completely
unscrewing the cap.
4. Remove the cap. The cap is tethered to the vehicle.
5. Place the nozzle in straight position to the filler neck and
press with slight force to insert.
To refuel, switch on pump nozzle. After the automatic cut-off, the
tank can be topped up by
operating the pump nozzle a
maximum of two more times.
Caution
Wipe off any overflowing fuel
immediately.
6. To close, turn the fuel filler cap clockwise until it clicks.
7. Push the fuel filler flap closed until
it latches.
Notice
If, in cold weather, the fuel filler door
does not open, tap the door lightly.
Then try to open it again.
Liquid gas refuelling
Follow the operating and safety
instructions of the filling station when
refuelling.
Filling adapter
As filling systems are not
standardised, different adapters are
required which are available from
Vauxhall Distributors and from
Vauxhall Authorised Repairers.

132Driving and operating
Protective cap is magnetic. Place it on
fuel filler door while refuelling.
Screw the required adapter hand-
tight onto the filler neck.
ACME adapter: Screw the nut of the
filling nozzle onto the adapter.
Engage the locking lever of the filler
nozzle.
DISH adapter: Place the filler nozzle
into the adapter. Engage the locking
lever of the filler nozzle.
Bayonet adapter: Place filler nozzle
on the adapter and turn one quarter
turn. Engage the locking lever of the
filler nozzle.
EURO adapter: Press the filler nozzle
onto the adapter. Engage the locking
lever of the filler nozzle.
Press the button of the liquid gas supply point. The filling system stops
or begins to run slowly when 80% of
the tank volume is reached
(maximum fill level).
Release button on filling system to
stop the filling process. Release the
locking lever and remove the filler
nozzle. A small quantity of liquid gas
can escape.
Remove adapter and stow in vehicle.
Fit protective cap to prevent the
penetration of foreign bodies into the
filler opening and the system.9 Warning
Due to the system design, an
escape of liquid gas after
releasing the locking lever is
unavoidable. Avoid inhaling.
9 Warning
The liquid gas tank may only be
filled to 80% for safety reasons.
The multivalve on the liquid gas tank
automatically limits the fill quantity. If
a larger quantity is added, we
recommend not exposing the vehicle
to the sun until the excess amount
has been used up.
Fuel filler cap
Only use genuine fuel filler caps.
