Driving and operating161Caution
In vehicles with AdBlue, the
AdBlue protective cap is the blue
lower cap 3 141 , and the fuel filler
cap is the black upper cap
(arrowed in illustration).
In case of misfuelling, do not
switch on ignition. Seek the
assistance of a workshop
immediately.
To open the fuel filler cap, turn
anticlockwise.
The fuel filler cap can be retained in
the bracket on the fuel filler flap.
For refuelling, fully insert the pump
nozzle and switch it on.
After automatic cut-off, it can be
topped up by operating the pump
nozzle a maximum of two more times.Caution
Wipe off any overflowing fuel
immediately.
When refuelling is complete, replace
the fuel filler cap and turn clockwise
as far as it will go.
Close the fuel filler flap.
Fuel filler cap Only use genuine fuel filler caps.Diesel-engined vehicles have special
fuel filler caps.
Fuel consumption - CO 2-
Emissions
The values for fuel consumption
(combined) of the model Opel Vivaro
is within a range of 7.4 to
5.7 l/100 km.
Depending on country, the fuel
consumption is displayed in km/l. In
this case, the fuel consumption
(combined) of the model Opel Vivaro
is within a range of approx. 13.5 to
17.5 km/l.
The CO 2 emission (combined) is
within a range of 195 to 149 g/km.
For the values specific to your
vehicle, refer to the EEC Certificate of Conformity provided with your vehicle
or other national registration
documents.

Vehicle care165General 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 operating permit,
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 the vehicle. Wax painted parts of the vehicle.
Exterior care 3 200.
● Have the wax in the engine compartment and underbody
checked.
● Clean and preserve 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 vehicle in a dry, wellventilated place. Engage first or
reverse gear. Prevent the vehicle from rolling.
● Do not apply the parking brake.
● Open the bonnet, close all doors and lock the vehicle.
Putting back into operation
When the vehicle is to be put back into
operation:
● Check tyre pressure.
● Fill up the washer fluid reservoir. ● Check the engine oil level.
● Check the coolant level.
● Since the durability of AdBlue is limited to two years, fluid should
be exchanged if it is too old. Seek the assistance of a workshop.
● Fit the number plate, if necessary.

206Service and maintenanceEngine 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 3 209.
All of the recommended viscosity
grades are suitable for high ambient
temperatures.
Coolant and antifreeze
Use only silicate-free 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.
This concentration should be
maintained all year round. The use of additional coolant additives that
intend to give additional corrosionprotection or seal against minor leaks
can cause function problems. Liability
for consequences resulting from the
use of additional coolant additives will be rejected.
Washer fluid Use only washer fluid approved for
the vehicle to prevent damage of
wiper blades, paintwork, plastic and
rubber parts. Consult a workshop.
Brake fluid Over time, brake fluid absorbs
moisture which will reduce braking
effectiveness. The brake fluid should
therefore be replaced at the specified
interval.
AdBlue Only use AdBlue to reduce the
nitrogen oxides in the exhaust
emission 3 141.
